Rhodium(III) octahedral complexes with amine and chloride ligands are the most common starting compounds for preparing catalytically active rhodium(I) and rhodium(III) species. Despite intensive study during the last 100 years, synthesis and crystal structures of rhodium(III) complexes were described only briefly. Some [RhClx(NH3)6-x] compounds are still unknown. In this study, available information about synthetic protocols and the crystal structures of possible [RhClx(NH3)6−x] octahedral species are summarized and critically analyzed. Unknown crystal structuresof(NH4)2[Rh(NH3)Cl5],trans–[Rh(NH3)4Cl2]Cl·H2O,andcis–[Rh(NH3)4Cl2]Clarereported based on high quality single crystal X-ray diffraction data. The crystal structure of [Rh(NH3)5Cl]Cl2 was redetermined. All available crystal structures with octahedral complexes [RhClx(NH3)6-x] were analyzed in terms of their packings and pseudo-translational sublattices. Pseudo-translation lattices suggest face-centered cubic and hexagonal closed-packed sub-cells, where Rh atoms occupy nearly ideal lattices.
A hydrothermal synthesis of ZrW2-xMoxO8 (0 ≤ x ≤ 2) from the corresponding precursors is reported in this paper. High-temperature and high-pressure data are presented for the sample with x = 1.6. An increase in temperature initiates the phase transition from tetragonal precursor to orthorhombic-ZrW2-xMoxO8 (x = 1.6) with the subsequent formation of cubic and trigonal phases. The thermolysis parameter of the disordered cubic ZrW2-xMoxO8 (x = 1.6) phase is 803 K, and the coefficient of thermal expansion is α = -4.6∙10–6 K−1. Data on ZrW2-xMoxO8 (x = 1.6) structure as a function of pressure are obtained for the first time. Pressureinduced changes from cubic to orthorhombic ZrW2-xMoxO8 (x = 1.6) phase at 1.38 GPa are observed. The sample amorphization is irreversible during decompression.
In this paper we report high-pressure synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction data for the cubic ZrWMoO8. For the first time, extensive structural study of ZrWMoO8 solid solution as a function of pressure was performed. This study shows that disordered cubic-ZrWMoO8 (space group Pa) transforms to ordered cubic-ZrWMoO8 (space group P) at low pressure. A further high-pressure influence leads followed by amorphization of the sample at 2.2 GPa. All transformations are irreversible. Our work will have high impact in the design of new composite materials with well-defined thermal expansion, especially for applications under extreme conditions and high mechanic stress.
Thermal decomposition of (NH4)2[OsxPt1-xCl6] as single-source precursors for Os-Pt binary alloys has been investigated under ambient and high pressure up to 40 GPa. Thermal decomposition of mixed-metal (NH4)2[OsxPt1-xCl6] precursor in hydrogen atmosphere (reductive environment) under ambient pressure results in formation of β-trans[Pt(NH3)2Cl2] and α-trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2] crystalline intermediates as well as single and twophase Os—Pt binary alloys. For the first time, direct thermal decomposition of coordination compound under pressure has been investigated. A formation of pure metallic alloys from single-source precursors under pressure has been shown. Miscibility between fcc- and hcpstructured alloys has been probed up to 50 GPa by in situ high-pressure X-ray diffraction. Miscibility gap between fcc- and hcp-structured alloys does not change its positions with pressure up to at least 50 GPa.
Nitrogen-rich noble metal nitrides possess unique mechanical and catalytic properties, therefore their synthesis and characterization is of interest for fundamental solid state chemistry and materials science. In this study we have synthesized a singlesource precursor [Rh(NH3)6]3(N3)5Cl4 (Rh:N ratio 1:11). Its controlled decomposition in a laser-heated diamond anvil cell at 39 GPa resulted in a formation of rhodium pernitride, RhN2. According to the results of single-crystal X-ray diffraction RhN2 has arsenopyrite structure type crystal structure previously unknown for this compound (P21/c (no. 14).
Preparation of new bimetallic compounds, including double complex salts (DCSs), containing both a platinumgroup metal and a transition metal of the fourth period is of great interest since these compounds can act as precursors of bimetallic materials. One example of using such compounds is the preparation of ultrafine particles of solid solutions of metals or intermetallic compounds on various supports to fabricate highly efficient catalysts with a low content of noble
metals.
Compounds containing coordinated oxalate anions are important objects of synthetic chemistry and interesting precursors. For example, a lot of attention is given to salts with [M(C2O4)2]2– anions, where M = Co, Ni, Cu, Pt, Pd. On the one hand, the uniqueness of oxalate coordinated anions is due to the fact that they are easily obtained and are stable both in aqueous solutions and in the solid phase; on the other hand, they are thermally decomposed at relatively low temperatures, which makes them promising precursors for the fabrication of metallic and oxide materials.
Thermal decomposition of [Co(NH₃)₆][Fe(C₂O₄)₃]∙3H₂O in argon atmosphere, at a low heating rate (3°/min), and in large amounts of the initial complex (~0.1 mole), has been studied. It was possible to distinguish four decomposition steps upon heating: In the temperature range of 50⁻100 °C-the loss of crystal water; 100⁻190 °C-stability region of dehydrated complex; 230⁻270 °C-the range of stability of intermediate phase with the formula CoFe(NH₃)₂(C₂O₄)₂; 270⁻350 °C-thermal decomposition of the intermediate with the formation of metallic products and further air oxidation with the formation of Co1.5Fe1.5O₄. Catalytic properties of thermolysis products were tested in the decomposition reaction of H₂O₂ (inactive), oxidation of acetone (average activity), and decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (highly active).
For the first time, lonsdaleite-rich impact diamonds from one of the largest Popigai impact crater (Northern Siberia) with a high concentration of structural defects are investigated under hydrostatic compression up to 25 GPa. It is found that, depending on the nature of a sample, the bulk modulus for lonsdaleite experimentally obtained by X-ray diffraction in diamond-anvil cells is systematically lower and equal to 93.3−100.5% of the average values of the bulk moduli of a diamond matrix. Density functional theory calculations reveal possible coexistence of a number of diamond/lonsdaleite and twin diamond biphases. Among the different mutual configurations, separate inclusions of one lonsdaleite (001) plane per four diamond (111) demonstrate the lowest energy per carbon atom, suggesting a favorable formation of single-layer lonsdaleite (001) fragments inserted in the diamond matrix. Calculated formation energies and experimental diamond (311) and lonsdaleite (331) powder X-ray diffraction patterns indicate that all biphases could be formed
under high-temperature, high-pressure conditions. Following the equation of states, the bulk modulus of the diamond (111)/lonsdaleite (001) biphase is the largest one among all bulk moduli, including pristine diamond and lonsdaleite.
Knowledge of the compressional and thermal behaviour of metals and alloys is of a high fundamental and applied value. In this work, we studied the behaviour of Ir, Rh, and their fcc-structured alloys, Ir0.42Rh0.58 and Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15, up to 70 GPa using the diamond anvil cell technique with synchrotron X-ray diffraction. We found that all these materials are structurally stable upon room-temperature hydrostatic compression in the whole pressure interval, as well as upon heating to 2273 K both at ambient and high pressure. Rh, Ir0.42Rh0.58 and Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15 were investigated under static compression for the first time. According to our data, the compressibility of Ir, Rh, fcc–Ir0.42Rh0.58, and fcc Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15, can be described with the 3rd order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state with the following parameters: V0 = 14.14(6) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 341(10) GPa, and B0' = 4.7(3); V0 = 13.73(7) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 301(9) GPa, and B0' = 3.1(2); V0 = 13.90(8) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 317(17) GPa, and B0' = 6.0(5); V0 = 14.16(9) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 300(22) GPa, B0' = 6(1), where V0 is the unit cell volume, B0 and B0' – are the bulk modulus and its pressure derivative.
The huge atomic heterogeneity of high-entropy materials along with a possibility to unravel the behavior of individual components at the atomic scale suggests a great promise in designing new compositionally complex systems with the desired multi-functionality. Herein, we apply multi-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES), and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD)) to probe the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of all individual constituents in the single-phase face-centered cubic (fcc)-structured nanocrystalline thin film of Cr20Mn26Fe18Co19Ni17 (at.%) high-entropy alloy on the local scale. The local crystallographic ordering and component-dependent lattice displacements were explored within the reverse Monte Carlo approach applied to EXAFS spectra collected at the K absorption edges of several constituents at room temperature. A homogeneous short-range fcc atomic environment around the absorbers of each type with very similar statistically averaged interatomic distances (2.54–2.55 Å) to their nearest-neighbors and enlarged structural relaxations of Cr atoms were revealed. XANES and XMCD spectra collected at the L2,3 absorption edges of all principal components at low temperature from the oxidized and in situ cleaned surfaces were used to probe the oxidation states, the changes in the electronic structure, and magnetic behavior of all constituents at the surface and in the sub-surface volume of the film. The spin and orbital magnetic moments of Fe, Co, and Ni components were quantitatively evaluated. The presence of magnetic phase transitions and the co-existence of different magnetic phases were uncovered by conventional magnetometry in a broad temperature range.
