During the past 10 years iron-catalyzed reactions have become established in the field of organic synthesis. For example, the complex anion [Fe(CO)3 (NO)](-) , which was originally described by Hogsed and Hieber, shows catalytic activity in various organic reactions. This anion is commonly regarded as being isoelectronic with [Fe(CO)4 ](2-) , which, however, shows poor catalytic activity. The spectroscopic and quantum chemical investigations presented herein reveal that the complex ferrate [Fe(CO)3 (NO)](-) cannot be regarded as a Fe(-II) species, but rather is predominantly a Fe(0) species, in which the metal is covalently bonded to NO(-) by two π-bonds. A metal-N σ-bond is not observed.

Oxidation states and distribution of arsenic (As) in annually laminated (varved) lacustrine deposits were analyzed with a seasonal resolution. This deposit was formed in the mid-Holocene landslide-dammed paleolake in the upper reaches of the Ane River, central Japan and the paleolake watershed consists of the Jurassic accretionary complexes (Mino-Tamba belt) including sedimentary and igneous rocks. In the outcrop, centimeter-to-decimeter-scale silty clay layers alternating with laminated layers are well developed.

Article Synopsis
  • Carbon dioxide geological storage aims to reduce net zero emissions but poses environmental risks, particularly the mobilization of heavy metals if CO migrates.
  • Previous research has primarily examined pure CO, whereas this study tested sandstone and mudstone samples with both pure CO and an impure NO-SO-CO stream, revealing various metal reactions.
  • The experiments demonstrated that impure CO reactions led to higher metal release due to lower pH and oxidizing conditions, emphasizing the need for further investigation into gas mixtures that may be used in carbon storage processes.

Excessive heavy metal in drinking water are harmful to human body. Groundwater was still the drinking water resource in most of rural areas in the central of the Yangtze River Basin. Heavy metals of Fe, Mn, and As in the low plain region of the Yangtze River Basin significantly exceeded the standard, resulting in 16.

Extensive carbonate precipitation has occurred on Mars. To gain insight into the carbonation mechanisms and formation processes under ancient Martian aqueous conditions, we examine the precipitation of carbonates resulting from atmospheric carbon fixation, focusing on interactions between various brines and silicate and perchlorate solutions in alkaline environments. The micro-scale morphology and composition of the resulting precipitates are analysed using ESEM micrographs, EDX chemical compositional analysis, X-ray diffraction, and micro-Raman spectroscopy.

Low molecular weight organic acids stabilise siderite against oxidation and influence the composition of iron (oxyhydr)oxide oxidation products.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study investigates how low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs) affect the oxidation of siderite in controlled experiments, comparing results with and without these acids.
  • * Findings show that while pure siderite oxidizes rapidly, the presence of LMWOAs can preserve a significant amount, suggesting that a protective layer forms on the siderite surface to slow down its oxidation.
