Depending on the synthesis route, the samples show different particle sizes, according to SEM imaging. The crystal structures of barium acetate fluoride, strontium acetate fluoride, and lead acetate fluoride (BaFIJCH3COO), SrFIJCH3COO) and PbFIJCH3COO)) were solved from X-ray powder diffraction data. The structure solution is backed by the results from 19F MAS NMR, FT IR data, and thermal analysis. The calculated chemical shifts of the 19F MAS NMR spectra coincide well with the measured ones. It turns out that the grinding conditions have a remarkable influence on the mechanochemical synthesis and its products. Our systematic study also indicates a strong influence of the atomic radii of Ca, Sr, Ba, and Pb on the success of the syntheses.

A1 - Jäger, Christian T1 - Probing slow chemical exchange of pyridine molecules at acid magnesium hydroxide fluoride surfaces by 15N NMR N2 - 15N NMR of pyridine has been used to study Lewis and Brønsted sites at the acid surface of magnesium hydroxide fluoride at two different pyridine loadings with ratios of excess pyridine compared to pyridine molecules bound to Lewis and Brønsted sites of about 1:1 (highly loaded) and 0.15:1 (low loaded), respectively. The Lewis and Brønsted sites can be distinguished by the 15N chemical shift of pyridine at about –100 ppm (LPy) and –175 ppm (BPy). In both samples a very broad 15N resonance is found around –88 ppm assigned to weakly adsorbed (excess) pyridine molecules via hydrogen bridges (HPy). Additionally, another signal at about –49 ppm is observed in the highly loaded sample only representing physisorbed pyridine (PPy). A slow chemical exchange process of strongly bound LPy and BPy molecules with excess HPy and PPy molecules can be monitored using 15N exchange NMR. It takes place on a time scale of about 50–100 ms at room temperature. All pyridine molecules have the same 15N T1 and its value increases from 800 ms (highly loaded sample) to 5.3 s (low loading) hinting on changed pyridine mobility depending on the loading level.

T1 - Functionalized partially hydroxylated MgF2 as catalysts for the dehydration of d-xylose to furfural N2 - Among the furan-based compounds, furfural (FUR) shows interesting properties as building-block or industrial solvent. It is produced from pentosan-rich biomass via xylose cyclodehydration. The current FUR production uses homogeneous catalysts and steam. According to recent studies, the reaction mechanism is different in the presence of Lewis (L) or Brønsted (B) sites. In this work, partially hydroxylated MgF2 catalysts, containing bifunctional Lewis and Brønsted properties, were further functionalized using different fluorosulfonic precursors. Its main objective was to test these solids as catalysts for xylose conversion to furfural. Extensive characterization techniques using TG–MS, 19F-MAS-NMR, or pyridine adsorption confirmed the substitution of surface OH groups by stronger Brønsted sites. The activity data showed a considerable change of the reaction kinetics and a final furfural selectivity of 90% at 160 °C in water/toluene for optimized L/B ratios by the one-step grafting technique. Moreover, the reaction analyses and the change of conversion pathways were studied.

Both calcium- and strontium-tetrafluoroterephthalates are tetrahydrated, while the barium tetrafluoroterephthalate is free of coordinating water molecules. The two isomorphic structures Ca(pBDC-F4)·4H2O and Sr(pBDC-F4)·4H2O were solved from the powder diffraction data by ab initio structure determination and subsequent Rietveld refinement. The products were thoroughly characterized by elemental analysis, thermal analysis, magicangle spinning NMR, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy imaging, and Brunauer−Emmett−Teller measurements. Our findings suggest that the mechanochemical synthesis route is a promising approach for the preparation of new fluorinated alkaline earth metal−organic frameworks.

Fluorine can be easily integrated into coordination polymers (CPs) via a fluorinated acetate, here trifluoroacetate in Ba(CF3COO)2, or directly via a metal fluorine bond (BaF(CH3COO)). In the present study both possibilities of fluorine integration were tested and their effect on structure and properties of barium coordination polymers was investigated in comparison with the non-fluorinated barium acetate (Ba(CH3COO)2). In addition to the study of their thermal behaviour and their decomposition temperature, the CPs structures were tested for their application as possible anode materials in lithium ion batteries and for their sorption of water and ammonia. The properties of the CPs can be traced back to the individual structural motifs and could thus trigger new design ideas for CPs in LIBs and/or catalysis.

The corresponding dry samples were measured under ultra high vacuum for comparison. The results obtained under near-ambient pressure were overall comparable to those obtained under ultra high vacuum, although measuring silver nanoparticles in water requires a high pass energy and a long acquisition time. A shift towards higher binding energies was found for the silver nanoparticles in aqueous Suspension compared to the corresponding dry sample, which can be assigned to a change of surface potential at the water-nanoparticle interface. The shell-thickness of the core-shell nanoparticles was estimated based on simulated spectra from the National Institute of Standards and Technology database for simulation of electron spectra for surface analysis. With the instrumental set-up presented in this paper, nanoparticle suspensions in a suitable Container can be directly inserted into the analysis chamber and measured without prior sample preparation.

T1 - Strontium-coordination polymers based on tetrafluorophthalic and phthalic acids: mechanochemical synthesis, ab initio structures determination, and spectroscopic characterization N2 - Two strontium-based dicarboxylate systems [Sr(oBDC-F4)(H2O)2] (1) and [{Sr(oBDC)(H2O)2)·H2O] (2) were synthesized mechanochemically via milling of Sr(OH)2·8H2O with tetrafluorophthalic acid (H2oBDC-F4) or phthalic acid (H2oBDC), respectively. The new structures were determined ab initio from the powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) data. Both compounds 1 and 2 crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21 /c as two-dimensional coordination polymers (2D-CPs). The determined structures were validated by extended X-ray absorption (EXAFS) data. Compounds 1 and 2 show different thermal stabilities. The fluorinated CP 1 is decomposed at 300 °C while the nonfluorinated CP 2 transforms into a new phase after thermal treatment at 400 °C. The two hydrated CPs exhibit small surface areas which increase after the thermal posttreatment for 1 but remains unchanged for the dehydrated sample of 2. Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) experiments indicate that both the dehydrated and hydrated samples of 2 depict no significant differences in their adsorption isotherms. The DVS of water indicates that the phase transition after thermal posttreatment of 2 is irreversible.

Phase-pure BaF-benzenedicarboxylate was synthesized by milling starting either from barium hydroxide or from Barium acetate as sources for barium cations. In both cases, the second reactant was 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H2(p-BDC)). Ammonium fluoride was used as fluorinating agent directly at milling. This is the first mechanochemical synthesis of coordination polymers where fluorine is directly coordinated to the metal cation. Following the second possibility, barium acetate fluoride (Ba(OAc)F) is formed as ntermediate product after milling, and the new coordination polymer is accessible only after washing with water and dimethyl sulfoxide. The new compound BaF(p-BDC)0.5 was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, FTIR-, and 19F, 1H-13C CP MAS NMR spectroscopies, DTA-TG, and elemental Analysis.

T1 - Tuning the surface properties of novel ternary iron(III) fluoride-based catalysts using the template effect of the matrix N2 - Sol–gel prepared ternary FeF3–MgF2 materials have become promising heterogeneous catalysts due to their porosity and surface Lewis/Brønsted acidity (bi-acidity). Despite the good catalytic performance, nanoscopic characterisations of this type of material are still missing and the key factors controlling the surface properties have not yet been identified, impeding both a better understanding and further development of ternary fluoride catalysts. In this study, we characterised the interaction between the bi-acidic component (FeF3) and the matrix (MgF2) on the nano-scale. For the first time, the formation pathway of FeF3–MgF2 was profiled and the template effect of MgF2 during the synthesis process was discovered. Based on these new insights two novel materials, FeF3–CaF2 and FeF3–SrF2, were established, revealing that with decreasing the atomic numbers (from Sr to Mg), the ternary fluorides exhibited increasing surface acidity and surface area but decreasing pore size. These systematic changes gave rise to a panel of catalysts with tuneable surface and bulk properties either by changing the matrix alkaline earth metal fluoride or by adjusting their ratios to Fe or both. The template effect of the alkaline earth metal fluoride matrix was identified as the most probable key factor determining the surface properties and further influencing the catalytic performance in ternary fluoride based catalysts, and paves the way to targeted design of next-generation catalysts with tunable properties.

T1 - Crystalline Aluminium Hydroxy Fluorides: Structural Insights Obtained by High Field Solid State NMR and Trend Analyses N2 - A series of crystalline aluminum hydroxy fluorides in cubic pyrochlore structure AlFx(OH)3-x·H2O with variable F-content x were investigated by solid-state NMR by applying different magnetic fields up to 21.1 T. Distinguishable octahedral species AlFx(OH)6-x (x = 1-6) were identified in the crystalline aluminum hydroxy fluorides. The subsequent analysis of the highfield 27Al MAS NMR data allows the derivation of the trend analysis graphs giving correlations between the 27Al chemical shifts and the quadrupolar frequencies and the F-content x in AlFx(OH)6-x. Clear trends were obtained for both, which are, along with the 19F MAS chemical-shift trend analysis presented earlier, valuable tools for the interpretation of MAS NMR spectra of amorphous AlFx(OX)3-x compounds (X = H, alkyl). Following the dehydration of the pyrochlores by solid-state NMR eventually reveals a remarkable influence of the incorporated solvent molecules (H2O) on the 19F chemical shift. On that basis, a new chemical-shift trend analysis for 19F chemical shifts in correlation with x in AlFx(OH)6-x units for proton-poor substances (in the Al, F, O, H system) was determined. By using this correlation, high-surface AlF3 has a mean bulk Al:F ratio similar to that found for ACF, namely, AlF2.8(O/OH)0.2.
