The potential difference ?E = 410 mV and the intervalence-charge-transfer (IVCT) transition at 2472 nm indicate a high degree of electronic interaction between the two ruthenium ions mediated through the tape bridging ligand.

All experimental isotherms can be nicely described by using the Toth isotherm model and show the preferred adsorption of CO2 over CH4. At low pressures the Toth isotherm equation exhibits a Henry region, wherefore Henry's law constants for CO2 and CH4 uptake could be determined and ideal selectivity (alpha CO2/CH4) has been calculated. Secondly, selectivities were calculated from mixture data by using nearly equimolar binary mixtures of both gases by a volumetric-chromatographic method to examine the IFPs. Results showed the reliability of the selectivity calculation. Values of (alpha CO2/CH4) around 7.5 for IFP-5 indicate that this material shows much better selectivities than IFP-1, IFP-2, IFP-3, IFP-4 and IFP-6 with slightly lower selectivity (alpha CO2/CH4) = 4-6. The preferred adsorption of CO2 over CH4 especially of IFP-5 and IFP-4 makes these materials suitable for gas separation application.}, language = {en} } @article{HahnHoldt2012, author = {Hahn, Simone and Holdt, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Extraction of hexachloroplatinate from hydrochloric acid solutions with phosphorylated hexane-1,6-diyl polymers}, series = {Reactive \& functional polymers}, volume = {72}, journal = {Reactive \& functional polymers}, number = {11}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1381-5148}, doi = {10.1016/j.reactfunctpolym.2012.08.004}, pages = {878 -- 888}, year = {2012}, abstract = {A series of diols (diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, butane-1,4-diol and hexane-1,6-diol) were immobilized onto Merrifield resin and subsequently phosphorylated with dialkyl chlorophosphate (alkyl = Me, Et, Bu). The resins bearing hexane-1,6-diyl groups exhibited very good extraction abilities in regard to precious metal chloro complexes like platinum(IV), palladium(II) and rhodium(III). In batch experiments, more than 98\% of Pt(IV) is extracted even when the metal and the hydrochloric acid concentration is enhanced significantly. Elution can be achieved with a solution of 0.5 mol L-1 thiourea in 0.1 mol L-1 hydrochloric acid. In the presence of other noble metals, platinum(IV) is preferentially bound. The extraction yield decreases in slightly acidic solution in the following order: Pt(IV)approximate to Pd(II)>Rh(III) and changes with increasing hydrochloric acid concentration to Pt(IV)>Pd(II)>> Rh(III). At different ratios of metal and acid, the temperature has nearly no influence on the platinum extraction. On slightly acidic media, the extraction of rhodium decreases by 30\% when the temperature is increased from 10 degrees C to 40 degrees C. When the acid and metal concentration is enhanced, the palladium extraction decreases by 7-9\%, depending on the resin.}, language = {en} } @article{KammerStarkePietruchaetal.2012, author = {Kammer, Stefan and Starke, Ines and Pietrucha, Andreas and Kelling, Alexandra and Mickler, Wulfhard and Schilde, Uwe and Dosche, Carsten and Kleinpeter, Erich and Holdt, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {1,12-Diazaperylene and 2,11-dialkylated-1,12-diazaperylene iridium(III) complexes [Ir((CN)-N-boolean AND)(2)((NN)-N-boolean AND)]PF6: new supramolecular assemblies}, series = {Dalton transactions : a journal of inorganic chemistry, including bioinorganic, organometallic, and solid-state chemistry}, volume = {41}, journal = {Dalton transactions : a journal of inorganic chemistry, including bioinorganic, organometallic, and solid-state chemistry}, number = {34}, publisher = {Royal Society of Chemistry}, address = {Cambridge}, issn = {1477-9226}, doi = {10.1039/c2dt30412k}, pages = {10219 -- 10227}, year = {2012}, abstract = {A series of new monocationic iridium(III) complexes [Ir((CN)-N-boolean AND)(2)((NN)-N-boolean AND)]PF6 with "large-surface" alpha,alpha'-diimin ligands (NN)-N-boolean AND (dap = 1,12-diazaperylene, dmedap = 2,11-dimethyl-1,12-diazaperylene, dipdap = 2,11-diisopropyl-1,12-diazaperylene) and different cyclometalating ligands (CN)-N-boolean AND (piq = 1-phenylisoquinoline, bzq = benzo[h]quinoline, ppz = 1-phenylpyrazole, thpy = 2-(2-thienyl)pyridine, ppy = 2-phenylpyridine, meppy = 2-(4-methylphenyl)pyridine, dfppy = 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyridine) were synthesized.

In [Ir(piq)(2)(dap)]PF6, the dap ligand and one of the piq ligands of each cationic complex are involved in pi-pi stacking interactions forming supramolecular channels running along the crystallographic c axis. In the crystalline [Ir(bzq)(2)(dap)]PF6 pi-pi stacking interactions between the metal complexes lead to the formation of a 2D layer structure. In addition, CH-pi interactions were found in all compounds, which are what stabilizes the solid structure. In particular, a significant number of them were found in [Ir(piq)(2)(dap)]PF6 and [Ir(bzq)(2)(dap)]PF6. The crystal structures of [Ir(ppy)(2)(dipdap)]PF6 and [Ir(ppy)(2)(dmedap)]PF6 are also presented, being the first examples of bis-cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes with phenanthroline-type alpha,alpha'-diimin ligands bearing bulky alkyl groups in the neighbourhood of the N-donor atoms. These ligands implicate a distorted octahedral coordination geometry that in turn destabilized the Ir-N-N boolean AND N bonds. The new iridium (III) complexes are not luminescent. All compounds show an electrochemically irreversible anodic peak between 1.15 and 1.58 V, which is influenced by the different cyclometalated ligands. All of the new complexes show two reversible successive one-electron "large-surface" ligand-centred reductions around -0.70 V and -1.30 V. Electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and collision induced decomposition (CID) measurements were used to investigate the stability of the new complexes.

For that, the extraction system has been further customised, including the choice of an appropriate diluent (1,2-dichlorobenzene) as well as an effective stripping agent (0.5 M thiourea in 0.1 M HCl), which both have been selected from a number of potential agents. It is shown in batch experiments that the selectivity for Pd(II) is maintained when the organic phase (10(-2) M 1,2-bis(2-methoxyethylthio)benzene in 1,2-dichlorobenzene) is used several times to extract an oxidising leach solution. According to the McCabe-Thiele plot two theoretical stages are needed to extract more than 98\% of the Pd(II) contained in that solution. The calculation of the thermodynamic quantities Delta H degrees. Delta S degrees and Delta G degrees reveals that the reaction is entropy driven - the temperature has only a slight influence on the extraction yield. It is demonstrated that the mono-oxidised extractant has a catalytic effect on the extraction kinetics when the aqueous phase contains highly concentrated hydrochloric acid.
