Published: November 2023

This paper presents an overview of approaches proposed in the scientific literature for the voltammetric determination of rare earth elements (mainly cerium and europium individually, as well as various lanthanides simultaneously) in manifold kinds of samples. The work is divided into chapters describing the most important aspects affecting the sensitivity of the proposed methods: the technique adopted (AdSV, ASV, CSV), complexing agents used, the kind of working electrode (mercury-based, noble metal or carbon electrodes) and the most popular electrode modifiers (e.g., metal film, carbon nanotubes, molecularly imprinted polymers). Analytical parameters of the procedures presented in the paper are collected in tables. The subsequent chapters are devoted to a detailed discussion of potential inorganic and organic interfering factors. The possibilities of simultaneous determination of several lanthanides in one sample and the influence of other lanthanides on the determined rare earth element were also discussed. Finally, the applications of the voltammetric procedures to the determination of rare earth metals in real samples with miscellaneous matrix is described. All analytical results were tabulated in order to compare the analytical suitability of the proposed procedures.

Multimetallic Half-Sandwich Complexes of the Rare-Earth Metals.

Institut Für Anorganische Chemie, Universität Tübingen, Auf der Morgenstelle 18, 72076 Tübingen, Germany.

Multimetallic half-sandwich complexes of the paramagnetic lanthanides gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, and erbium as well as of diamagnetic yttrium are readily accessible via AlMe/halogenido exchange reactions of Cp*Ln(AlMe) with the mild halogenido transfer reagents MeSiI and MeGeX (Cp* = CMe; X = Br, Cl). Depending on the rare-earth-metal center and halogenido ion size, complexes with distinct structural motifs and nuclearities are obtained, including dimeric compounds [Cp*Ln(AlMe)(μ-Cl)] for the smaller metal centers Ln = Ho, Er, iodido-bridged tetranuclear rings [Cp*Ln(μ-I)] (Ln = Y, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er), and a heterobimetallic tetramethylaluminato-bridged gadolinium cluster [Cp*GdI(AlMe)]. The tetranuclear dysprosium complex [Cp*Dy(μ-I)] shows single-molecule magnet (SMM) behavior in zero applied field with an effective energy barrier of 164(10) cm.

Synergistic Entropy Engineering with Oxygen Vacancy: Modulating Microstructure for Extraordinary Thermosensitive Property in ReNbO Materials.

Small

State Key Laboratory of Functional Materials and Devices for Special Environmental Conditions, Xinjiang Key Laboratory of Electronic Information Materials and Devices, Xinjiang Technical Institute of Physics & Chemistry of CAS, Urumqi, 830011, China.

The pursuit of high precision and stability simultaneously in high-temperature thermistor fields is longstanding. However, most spinel or perovskite-structured thermosensitive materials struggle to tolerate prolonged high-temperature environments at the expense of sensitivity and stability. Here, a novel entropy engineering strategy involving vacancies is proposed to balance sensitivity and stability for fergusonite-structured ReNbO (Re is a rare earth element) material in extreme environments.

Probing the structural transformation and bonding of metal-boride clusters MB (M = La, Ta, Re, Ir).

Department of Chemistry and Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Catalytic Chemistry, Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen 518055, China.

Theoretical investigations using density functional theory (DFT) and wavefunction theory (WFT) have been performed to understand the geometric and electronic structures, chemical bonding, and structural transformation of 5d6s-metal doped triboron clusters MB (M = La, Ta, Re, Ir; = 1, 3, 5, 7). Global-minimum structural searches find that early-metal doped MB (M = La, Ta) clusters adopt a two-dimensional (2D) planar structure, with σ- and π-type delocalized molecular orbitals (MOs) consisting of M-5d and B-2p atomic orbitals (AOs) identified by chemical bonding analysis. In contrast, late-metal doped MB (M = Re, Ir) clusters prefer three-dimensional (3D) structures of near-pyramidal and triangular pyramid geometries, respectively, which exhibit enhanced stability involving σ- and δ-type M(5d)-B(2p) interactions.

Exogenous Coreactant-Free Electrocatalytic Reactive Oxygen Species-Driven Dual-Signal Molecularly Imprinted Electrochemiluminescence Sensor for the Detection of Trenbolone.

Conventional dual-signal electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensors feature high sensitivity and reliability, but the involvement of coreactants inevitably results in a complex configuration and shows reproducibility risk. Here, we propose an exogenous coreactant-free dual-signal platform, comprising luminol (anodic luminophore), CdSe quantum dots (cathodic luminophore), and CoO/TiC electrocatalyst (coreaction promoter). At different redox potentials, CoO/TiC induces water oxidation and oxygen reduction to produce OH and O radicals, which subsequently drive cathodic and anodic ECL emission, respectively.
