The 2:1 salts of a new donor molecule, EDT-DSDTFVO with MX4- (M = Fe, Ga; X = Cl, Br) ions, were prepared. The crystal structures of the donor molecules had a beta-type packing motif. All the salts essentially exhibited metallic behaviors despite the small upturns in the resistances below 30-70 K. A large negative magnetoresistance (MR) effect [-14.7% (rho(perpendicular)) at 4.0 K and 5 T] was observed in the FeCl4- salt, while a positive MR effect [+4.0% (rho(perpendicular)) at 4.0 K and 5 T] was observed in the GaCl4- salt, suggesting that there is a pi-d interaction in the FeCl4- salt. The pressure application suppressed the resistivity upturns, increased the negative MR effect (-17.7% at 9.5 kbar) in the FeCl4- salt, and decreased the positive MR effect (+3.3% at 15 kbar) in the GaCl4- salt.

Initially, 4,4'-(1,4-phenylene)di(sulfonic)pyridinium tetrachloroferrate (PDSPTCF) as a novel organic-inorganic hybrid salt was synthesized and identified by elemental mapping, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer, Raman spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, vibrating-sample magnetometry, and thermal gravimetric (TG) techniques. Then, the catalytic performance of this hybrid salt was assessed for the producing benzo[a]benzo[6,7]chromeno[2,3-c]phenazine derivatives via one-pot multicomponent domino reaction (MDR) of benzene-1,2-diamine, 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione and aldehydes under optimal conditions (70 °C, solvent-free, 5 mol% PDSPTCF) in short reaction times and high yields. Highly efficacy of the PDSPTCF for the production of benzo[a]pyrano[2,3-c]phenazines can be assigned to the synergistic effect of Lewis and Brønsted acids, and having two positions of each acid (i.

NNN-Bis(imino) pyridine-based pincer-Fe(II) complexes with an expected trigonal bipyramidal (TBP) geometry equilibrated to a rearranged ion pair of an octahedral dicationic Fe complex containing two bis(imino)pyridine ligands that are neutralized by a tetrahedral dianionic-[FeCl]. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), and UV-visible (UV-vis) studies suggested that the equilibrium was dictated by the sterics of the R group on the imine N, with the less-crowded groups tilting the equilibrium to the ion pair and the bulky ones favoring the TBP geometry. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and Evan's magnetic moment measurements indicated that the complexes were paramagnetic with Fe(II) in a high-spin state.

A novel imidazolium halometallate molten salt with formula (trimim)[FeCl] (trimim: 1,2,3-trimethylimidazolium) was synthetized and studied with structural and physico-chemical characterization. Variable-temperature synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (SXPD) from 100 to 400 K revealed two structural transitions at 200 and 300 K. Three different crystal structures were determined combining single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXD), neutron powder diffraction (NPD), and SXPD.

Solvate ionic liquids (SILs), comprising long-lived, Li solvate cations and counter anions, serve as highly Li-ion-conductive and non-flammable electrolytes for use in lithium secondary batteries. In this work, we synthesized a series of novel redox-active glyme(oligoether)-Li salt-based SILs, consisting of a symmetric ([Li(G3)]) or asymmetric ([Li(G3Bu)]) triglyme-Li salt complex and redox-active tetrahalogenoferrate ([FeX] (X = Br, ClBr, Cl)), for use as the catholyte in semi-liquid lithium secondary batteries. The successful formation of stable molten complexes of [Li(G3/G3Bu)][FeX] was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy and thermogravimetry.
