The structures of four bis(trichlorophosphine)iminium [[Cl(3)P=N=PCl(3)](+); systematic name: trichloro[(trichlorophosphoranylidene)iminio]phosphorus(V)] salts, namely bis(trichlorophosphine)iminium hexachloroniobate, (Cl(6)NP(2))[NbCl(6)], (I), bis(trichlorophosphine)iminium hexachlorotantalate, (Cl(6)NP(2))[TaCl(6)], (II), bis(trichlorophosphine)iminium tri-micro-chloro-bis[trichlorotitanium(IV)], (Cl(6)NP(2))[Ti(2)Cl(9)], (III), and bis[bis(trichlorophosphine)iminium] di-micro-chloro-bis[tetrachlorozirconium(IV)], (Cl(6)NP(2))(2)[Zr(2)Cl(10)], (IV), have been determined. The P=N distances in the discrete [Cl(3)P=N=PCl(3)](+) moieties in structures (I), (II) and (IV) range from 1.5460 (14) to 1.5554 (16) A, and the P=N=P angles range from 136.8 (3) to 143.4 (4) degrees. The [Cl(3)P=N=PCl(3)](+) cation in (III) is disordered and the calculated geometries for the cation are therefore less reliable. Compounds (I) and (II) are isostructural and the metal anions have slightly distorted octahedral geometries. The anion in compound (III) consists of two distorted octahedral Ti centres linked by three micro (2)-Cl atoms, while in compound (IV), the dianion is derived from two distorted edge-shared ZrCl(6) octahedra.

Iron-doped nickel oxyhydroxides, Ni(Fe)OH, are among the most promising oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts in alkaline environments. Although iron (Fe) significantly enhances the catalytic activity, there is still no clear consensus on whether Fe directly participates in the reaction or merely acts as a promoter. To elucidate the Fe's role, we performed X-ray spectroscopy studies supported by DFT on Ni(Fe)OH electrocatalysts.

Acentric crystalline materials are the cornerstone of numerous cutting-edge technologies and have been highly sought-after, but they are difficult to construct controllably. Herein, by introducing a new p-block element to break the symmetrical environment of the d transition metal in the centric matrix TiTeO, a novel acentric tellurite sulfate, namely Ti(TeO)(SO), was successfully constructed. In its structure, two types of p-block element-centered oxo-anionic groups, [TeO] and [SO], endow [TiO] with an out-of-center distortion along the local C[111] direction, which is rare in titanium oxides containing a lone-pair cation.

Symmetrical bis(hydrazone)-based ligands, Hdar(bhz) (), Hdar(fah) (), Hdar(nah) (), and Hdar(inh) () obtained from 4,6-diacetylresorcinol (Hdar) and different hydrazides [benzoylhydrazide (Hbhz), isonicotinoylhydrazide (Hinh), nicotinoylhydrazide (Hnah), and 2-furoylhydrazide (Hfah)], were used to prepare potassium salts of binuclear -[VO] complexes, {K(HO)}[(VO)dar(bhz)] (), {K(HO)}[(VO)dar(fah)] (), {K(HO)}[(VO)dar(nah)] (), and {K(HO)}[(VO)dar(inh)] (), and binuclear [VO] complexes, [{VO(MeOH)}dar(bhz)] (), [{VO(MeOH)}dar(fah)] (), [{VO(MeOH)}dar(nah)] (), and [{VO(MeOH)}dar(inh)] (). In the presence of warm MeOH/DMSO (4:1), changed to {K(HO)}[(VO)Hdar(nah)]DMSO (·DMSO). Single crystal XRD studies of and confirm a binuclear structure along with a distorted square pyramidal geometry of each vanadium center where bis{ONO(2-)} ligands coordinate through phenolate-O, azomethine-N, and enolate-O atoms of each unit.

The coordination compounds featuring a {CuO} core, typically bridged by hydroxo or alkoxo groups, are particularly intriguing due to their notable magnetic properties and catalytic activity. In this study, we explored the synthesis and characterization of four new Schiff base ligands and their subsequent complexation with Cu salts, which resulted in the formation of three tetranuclear complexes: [Cu(L)]·2HO (1), [Cu(L)(HL)](Cl)(NO)·5HO (2), and [Cu(L)] (3), as well as one dinuclear complex: [Cu(L)] (4). These tetranuclear complexes all feature a {CuO} core, but with differing coordination environments around the Cu centers.

Improving the electronic properties of active cathode materials can significantly impact the design of rechargeable batteries. In this study, we investigated the influence of micro-strain on the structural and electronic properties of LiFePO (LFP) by performing combined core-level spectroscopy analysis and electrical conductivity measurements. High-resolution X-ray diffraction measurements, followed by Rietveld refinement analysis, revealed an increase in unit cell parameters due to the enhanced micro-strain in the lattice structure.
