NMR Study of Intercalates and Grafted Organic Derivatives of HLaTiO.

The protonated perovskite-like titanate HLaTiO has been used to produce organic-inorganic hybrids with simple organic molecules: methylamine, methanol, monoethanolamine, and -butylamine. The optimal pathways for the preparation of such hybrids are summarized. Solid-state NMR, combined with thermal analysis, Raman, and IR spectroscopy, has been applied to determine the bonding type in the obtained organic-inorganic hybrids.

Layered Titanate HNdTiO Intercalated With -Butylamine: A New Highly Efficient Hybrid Photocatalyst for Hydrogen Production From Aqueous Solutions of Alcohols.

A layered perovskite-type oxide intercalated with -butylamine is reported as an efficient photocatalyst for hydrogen production from aqueous solutions of alcohols for the first time. The hybrid photocatalyst HNdTiO×BuNH was synthesized by solid-state ceramic method followed by protonation, intercalation of methylamine and subsequent substitution by -butylamine. The product was characterized by powder XRD, TGA, STA-MS, DRS, IR, and Raman spectroscopy, CHN analysis, SEM.
