Synergism of primary and secondary interactions in a crystalline hydrogen peroxide complex with tin.

Despite the significance of HO-metal adducts in catalysis, materials science and biotechnology, the nature of the interactions between HO and metal cations remains elusive and debatable. This is primarily due to the extremely weak coordinating ability of HO, which poses challenges in characterizing and understanding the specific nature of these interactions. Herein, we present an approach to obtain HO-metal complexes that employs neat HO as both solvent and ligand.

Enhanced charge capacity and stability of Germanium(IV) Sulfide-Based anodes through Triton X100-Assisted synthesis and polysulfide shuttle mitigation.

Highly soluble germanium oxide,an amorphous macroreticular form of germanium oxide, was used as a precursor for the deposition of GeSon reduced graphene oxide (rGO) through a low-temperature, wet-chemistry process. Thermal treatment of the solid provided an ultrathin rGO - supported amorphous GeScoating. The GeS@rGO composite was tested as a lithium ion battery (LIB) anode.

Dioxygen-halogen bonding exemplified by crystalline peroxosolvates of ,'-bis(haloacetyl) bispidines.

The halogen bonding in molecular crystals and supramolecular assemblies has been widely investigated. Special attention is given to the molecular structures capable of simultaneously exhibiting different types of non-covalent interactions, including conventional hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds. This paper systematically analyzes crystalline peroxosolvates of bispidine-based bis-amide derivatives, containing haloacetic acid residues, namely previously reported 1,1'-(1,5-dimethyl-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.

Bioinspired Non-Heme Mn Catalysts for Regio- and Stereoselective Oxyfunctionalizations with H O.

In recent years, metalloenzymes-mediated highly selective oxidations of organic substrates under mild conditions have been inspiration for developing synthetic bioinspired catalyst systems, capable of conducting such processes in the laboratory (and, in the future, in industry), relying on easy-to-handle and environmentally benign oxidants such as H O . To date, non-heme manganese complexes with chiral bis-amino-bis-pyridylmethyl and structurally related ligands are considered as possessing the highest synthetic potential, having demonstrated the ability to mediate a variety of chemo- and stereoselective oxidative transformations, such as epoxidations, C(sp )-H hydroxylations and ketonizations, oxidative desymmetrizations, kinetic resolutions, etc. Furthermore, in the past few years non-heme Mn based catalysts have become the major platform for studies focused on getting insight into the molecular mechanisms of oxidant activation and (stereo)selective oxygen transfer, testing non-traditional hydroperoxide oxidants, engineering catalytic sites with enzyme-like substrate recognition-based selectivity, exploration of catalytic regioselectivity trends in the oxidation of biologically active substrates of natural origin.

Organoantimony Dihydroperoxides: Synthesis, Crystal Structures, and Hydrogen Bonding Networks.

Speciation of Tellurium(VI) in Aqueous Solutions: Identification of Trinuclear Tellurates by O, Te, and Te NMR Spectroscopy.

Tellurates have attracted the attention of researchers over the past decade due to their properties and as less toxic forms of tellurium derivatives.

Fast Quantum Approach for Evaluating the Energy of Non-Covalent Interactions in Molecular Crystals: The Case Study of Intermolecular H-Bonds in Crystalline Peroxosolvates.

Energy/enthalpy of intermolecular hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) in crystals have been calculated in many papers. Most of the theoretical works used non-periodic models. Their applicability for describing intermolecular H-bonds in solids is not obvious since the crystal environment can strongly change H-bond geometry and energy in comparison with non-periodic models.

Triphenyllead Hydroperoxide: A 1D Coordination Peroxo Polymer, Single-Crystal-to-Single-Crystal Disproportionation to a Superoxo/Hydroxo Complex, and Application in Catalysis.

Crystalline Peroxosolvates: Nature of the Coformer, Hydrogen-Bonded Networks and Clusters, Intermolecular Interactions.

Despite the technological importance of urea perhydrate (percarbamide) and sodium percarbonate, and the growing technological attention to solid forms of peroxide, fewer than 45 peroxosolvates were known by 2000. However, recent advances in X-ray diffractometers more than tripled the number of structurally characterized peroxosolvates over the last 20 years, and even more so, allowed energetic interpretation and gleaning deeper insight into peroxosolvate stability. To date, 134 crystalline peroxosolvates have been structurally resolved providing sufficient insight to justify a first review article on the subject.

Identification of Barium Hydroxo-Hydroperoxostannate Precursor for Low-Temperature Formation of Perovskite Barium Stannate.

A breakthrough "superoxide colloidal solution route" for low-temperature synthesis of barium and strontium stannate perovskites and their doped analogues was recently introduced. The synthesis starts from hydrogen peroxide-rich stannate solutions and yields a so-called "crystalline superoxide molecular cluster" that is converted by low temperature (<300 °C) to the respective perovskites. In this paper, the so-called "crystalline superoxide molecular cluster" is identified as a superoxide-free, barium trihydroxo(hydroperoxo)peroxostannate, BaSn(OH)(OOH)(OO) phase (BHHPS).

Vanadium Oxide Thin Film Formation on Graphene Oxide by Microexplosive Decomposition of Ammonium Peroxovanadate and Its Application as a Sodium Ion Battery Anode.

Formation of vanadium oxide nanofilm-coated graphene oxide (GO) is achieved by thermally induced explosive disintegration of a microcrystalline ammonium peroxovanadate-GO composite. GO sheets isolate the microcrystalline grains and capture and contain the microexplosion products, resulting in the deposition of the nanoscale products on the GO. Thermal treatment of the supported nanofilm yields a sequence of nanocrystalline phases of vanadium oxide (VO, VO) as a function of temperature.

HO induced formation of graded composition sodium-doped tin dioxide and template-free synthesis of yolk-shell SnO particles and their sensing application.

Sodium peroxostannate nanoparticles with graded composition were produced from aqueous hydrogen peroxide-sodium hydroxostannate solution. The uniform particles were converted to composition graded sodium stannate by mild thermal treatment for peroxide decomposition and yielded yolk-shell tin dioxide particles by dilute acid treatment. The mechanism of formation of the graded sodium concentration is explained in view of the solubility of peroxostannate in HO-HO solution and based on Sn NMR, XRD, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and electron microscopy studies.
