In current Li-ion batteries electrode materials consist typically of inorganic materials, such as LiCoO2, LiNixCoyMn1-zO2, LiFePO4, Li4Ti5O12. These materials struggle with toxicity or limited mineral resources, making them expensive. Therefore, eco-friendly, sustainable, and low-cost alternatives are researched for in recent years. A series of organic compounds were investigated as electrode materials for alkali-ion batteries. Among them organic carbonyl-based materials show reversible storage of lithium- or sodium-ions. Metal terephthalates stand out with their easy synthesis, moderate operational voltage and enhanced dissolution stability compared to other organic compounds. One degradation pathway consists of the dissolution of the electrode material by HF, formed in a side reaction by water and the fluorous electrolyte. Fluorinated metal terephthalates could offer higher dissolution stability against HF and less contamination by water due to their increased hydrophobicity.
The goal of this project is the synthesis and the investigation of the formation mechanism of a series of calcium-based MOFs with increasing fluorine content. For this purpose, we aimed for the construction of calcium-based MOFs with terephthalic acid (H2-pBDC), 2-fluoro-terephthalic acid (H2-2F-pBDC), 2,3,4,5-tetrafluoroterephthalic acid (H2-pBDC-F4), isophthalic acid (H2-mBDC) and 5-fluoro-isophthalic acid (H2-5F-mBDC).
Insight of the thermal decomposition of ammonium hexahalogenoiridates(IV) and hexachloroiridate(III)

Thermal decomposition of (NH4)3[IrCl6]·H2O, (NH4)2[IrCl6] and (NH4)2[IrBr6] in reductive and inert atmospheres has been investigated in situ using quick-EXAFS and temperature-resolved powder X-ray diffraction. For the first time, (NH4)2[Ir(NH3)Cl5] and (NH4)2[Ir(NH3)Br5] have been proven as intermediates of thermal decomposition of (NH4)3[IrCl6]·H2O, (NH4)2[IrCl6] and (NH4)2[IrBr6]. Thermal degradation of (NH4)2[IrCl6] and (NH4)2[IrBr6] is a more complex process as suggested previously and includes simultaneous formation of (NH4)2[Ir(NH3)Cl5] and (NH4)2[Ir(NH3)Br5] intermediates mixed with metallic iridium. In the inert atmosphere, complexes (NH4)[Ir(NH3)2Cl4] and (NH4)[Ir(NH3)2Br4] as well as [Ir(NH3)3Br3] were proposed as possible intermediates before formation of metallic iridium particles
The cocrystal formation of pyrazinamide (PZA) with malonic acid (MA) was studied in situ. The mechanochemical reaction proceeds via conversion of a crystalline intermediate (PZA:MA II) into the thermodynamically more stable form (PZA:MA I) upon further grinding. The information derived from in situ powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) enabled the isolation of this new metastable polymorph. On the basis of the PXRD data, the crystal structure of the 1:1 cocrystal PZA:MA II was solved. The polymorphs were further characterized and compared by Raman spectroscopy, solid-state NMR spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Our study demonstrates how monitoring mechanochemical reactions by in situ PXRD can direct the discovery and isolation of even short-lived intermediates not yet accessed by conventional methods.
