Organically-Templated Open-Framework And Hybrid MaterialsBehera, Jogendra Nath 12 1900 (has links)
Open-framework inorganic and inorganic-organic hybrid materials constitute an important area of study in materials chemistry, because of their potential applications in areas such as sorption and catalysis. Besides aluminosilicate zeolites, the metal phosphates and carboxylates constitute large families of open-framework structures. The possibility of building open architectures with the sulfate and selenate anions as the basic building units has been explored in this thesis. Investigations of a variety of open-framework metal sulfates and selenates, as well as a family of jarosites of different transition metals are
presented. More importantly, studies directed towards the synthesis and understanding of the magnetic properties of various Kagome compounds formed by the transition metal ions is discussed at length.
After providing an introduction to inorganic open-framework compounds (Part 1), the thesis presents the results of the investigations of various transition and rare earth metal sulfates with diverse structures and dimensionalities in Part 2. Some of these compounds show interesting properties. For example, a two-dimensional Ni(II) sulfate exhibits ferrimagnetism whereas a three-dimensional Ni(II) sulfate with 10-membered channels is paramagnetic. A family of three-dimensional co-ordination polymers of Co(II) sulfate wherein the Co(II) sulfate layers are linked by diaminoalkanes of varying chain length has been synthesized and characterized. Organically-templated neodymium and thorium sulfates with layered and three-dimensional structure have also been prepared.
The jarosite family of compounds with the Kagome structure is considered as an
ideal model for studying frustrated magnetism. This type of materials, however, is difficult to prepare in a pure and highly crystalline form. We have synthesized analogues of the jarosite containing magnetic ions other than Fe3+ by solvothermal techniques and discussed them in Part 3. In particular, we have prepared and explored the magnetic properties of Mn2+(S = 5/2), Fe2+ (S = 2), Co2+(S = 3/2) and Ni2+ (S = 1) jarosites. Based on the results presented, it becomes clear that the magnetic properties vary with the spin of the transition metal ion. It appears that those Kagome compounds with transition metalions with non-integer spins show antiferromagnetic interactions and magnetic frustration while those with integer spins exhibit ferro/ferrimagnetic properties. A theoretical study has also supports this observation. We have been able to isolate for the first time 1,4-diazacubane as the part of the structure of the nickel Kagome compound.
The possibility of building open architectures with the selenate anion as the basic building unit has been explored in Part 4. The results have been rewarding and an organically-templated three-dimensional lanthanum selenate with 12-membered channels
has thus been obtained for the first time.

[pt] ESTUDO CINÉTICO DA DECOMPOSIÇÃO TÉRMICA DE SULFATOS: EXPERIMENTOS DE TG E MODELAGEM / [en] KINETIC STUDY ON THERMAL DECOMPOSITION OF SULFATES: TGA EXPERIMENTS AND MODELLINGARTUR SERPA DE CARVALHO REGO 24 November 2022 (has links)
[pt] A decomposição de sulfatos vem ganhando notoriedade pela sua capacidade de geração limpa de H2 através dos ciclos termoquímicos. O entendimento do mecanismo de decomposição é relevante para futuros planejamentos
em aplicações industriais. Além disso, a modelagem desses processos permite
obter informações acerca da energia requerida para que os mesmos ocorram.
Dentre os diferentes sistemas de reações de decomposição, observa-se que alguns deles são mais complexos do que outros, envolvendo a presença de fases
intermediárias e múltiplas reações consecutivas ou simultâneas. Portanto, o
presente trabalho se propõe a desenvolver uma metodologia para a modelagem da decomposição térmica de sistemas reacionais com diferentes níveis de
complexidade: sulfato de alumínio, alúmen de potássio, mistura de sulfatos de
alumínio e potássio, sulfato de zinco e sulfato de ferro (II). Os experimentos
foram realizados utilizando análise termogravimétrica (TG) para ter o entendimento dos diferentes estágios de decomposição, utilizando os dados obtidos
na etapa de modelagem. O modelo envolveu o uso de um conjunto de equações
diferenciais para representar cada uma das reações que ocorrem na decomposição. A estimação dos parâmetros cinéticos feita pelo método de otimização
por enxame de partículas. Os resultados indicaram que sistemas envolvendo
a decomposição do sulfato de alumínio são catalisados na presença de sulfato
de potássio. No caso do zinco, a dessulfatação do sulfato anidro ocorre em
duas etapas, com a presença de um oxissulfato como uma fase intermediária. O sulfato de ferro (II) também apresenta uma decomposição complexa ao
passar pela fase de sulfato de ferro (III) antes de ser completamento convertido em hematita. Todas as modelagens mostraram excelente ajuste aos dados
experimentais, com R2 acima de 0.98 em todos os casos. / [en] The interest over of the decomposition of sulfates has increased due
to its capacity of generating clean H2 through the thermochemical cycles.
Understanding the decomposition mechanism is relevant to future industrial
design and applications. Moreover, the modeling of these processes gives the
information needed to know how much energy is required for the occurrence
of the reactions. Among the different reaction systems, it is observed a
range of complexity, with the presence of intermediate phases, and multiple
consecutive or simultaneous reactions. Therefore, the present work proposed
to develop a modeling methodology for the thermal decomposition of sulfates
systems with different complexity levels: aluminum sulfate, potassium alum,
mixture of aluminum sulfate and potassium sulfate, zinc sulfate, and iron (II)
sulfate. The experiments were performed using thermogravimetric analysis
(TGA) to understand the decomposition stages and use the data in the
modeling step. The developed model consisted of a system of differential
equations to describe every reaction taking place in the decomposition. The
kinetic parameters estimation was made by using particle swarm optimization.
The results indicate that potassium sulfate catalyzes the decomposition of
aluminum sulfate. In the case of zinc, the desulfation of anhydrous zinc sulfate
occurs in two stages, with the presence zinc oxysulfate as an intermediate
phase. Iron (II) sulfate also shows a complex decomposition system, as it
first decomposes into iron (III) sulfate before it is completely converted into
hematite. All the modeling results displayed an excellent agreement with the
experimental data, with R2 values above 0.98 for all cases.

New Anions In The Assembly Of The Open-Framework Compounds : Synthesis, Structure And PropertiesPaul, Avijit Kumar 07 1900 (has links) (PDF)
Open-framework inorganic materials constitute an important area of study in materials chemistry, because of their potential applications in areas such as sorption and catalysis. After the discovery of nanoporous aluminium phosphates (AlPOs) by Flanigen et al in 1982, there has been a tremendous growth in the area of porous solids that are based on phosphates. Apart from phosphates, phosphites, arsenates, sulfates, sulfites, selenates, selenites etc. have also been investigated. In addition to the different anions, the framework compounds now encompass almost all the elements of the periodic table. The compounds exhibit wide variety and structural diversity. New building units, such as thiosulfate and borate have also been explored as a network builder in the formation of framework structures. In this thesis, the results of the investigations on open-framework metal thiosulfates, metal borates and metal sulfates are presented. The studies are aimed not only at the synthesis of the new compounds based on the new anions, but also their possible applications.
In Chapter 1 of the thesis an overview of inorganic open-framework materials with different anions is presented. In Chapter 2 (Part A), the synthesis, structure and transformation of inorganic-organic hybrid open-framework cadmium thiosulfate are presented. The lack of stability of the thiosulfate ion in solution prompted the exploration of new approaches such as low temperature solvothermal methods, use of rigid linkers etc. The transformations of lower to higher dimensional structures have been accomplished. The possible mechanisms for such transformations were investigated. In Part B, the physical and chemical properties of the hybrid cadmium thiosulfate frameworks are presented. The studies indicate that the anionic dyes selectively adsorb on the compounds in the water medium and also desorb reasonably in alcoholic medium. The cadmium thiosulfate compounds appear to be reasonable photocalysts for the photodecomposition of the cationic dyes under UV irradiation as well as under sunlight with good recyclability. The compounds also exhibit heterogeneous catalytic behavior (Lewis acidity) for the cyanosilylation of the imines.
In Chapter 3, a new family of organically templated open-framework borate materials is presented. The zinc and aluminoborate structures, prepared in the present study, are rationalized using the HSAB theory. The [B4O9H2] units polymerize differently to form different zinc borate structures. The amine molecules act as a ligand by binding with the metal. The nature of the amine appears to control the dimensionality of the final zinc borate structures. The zinc borate compounds exhibit absorption of UV-light (λ = 365 nm) suggesting that the zinc borate compounds could be exploited for UV-blocking applications. Organically templated aluminoborates have connectivities between the Al3+ ions and the [B5O10] cyclic pentaborate units. The aluminoborate structures exhibit graphite layer and three-dimensional diamond structure. Detailed studies and comparison of the various amine templated open-framework aluminoborate structures reveals subtle relationships between the organic amines (shape and length of the amines) and the final framework structures.
In Chapter 3, the synthesis, structure and catalytic studies of a variety of cadmium sulfate phases have been carried out. Polyazaheterocyclic ligands were employed to study their possible role in the formation of such structures. All the compounds have structures built up by the connectivity involving the cadmium octahedra and the sulfate tetrahedra in which the heterocyclic organic molecules act as the ligand. The connectivity between the Cd2+ and (SO4)2− ions form one-, two-and three-dimensionally extended cadmium sulfate phases, though the starting source is cadmium sulfate (CdSO4.8/3H2O) in all the cases. The connectivity between Cd2+ ion and the heterocyclic ligand also gives rise to one-and two-dimensional structures. The interconnectivity between the two units gives rise to the final observed structure. As part of the study, a variety of properties i.e. adsorption-desorption, photocatalytic degradation and cyanosilylation reaction, exhibited by the cadmium sulfate compounds have been investigated and the properties are comparable to the cadmium thiosulfate phases.
AlPOs are well known for their many important properties. The wide varieties in their structures and heterogeneous catalytic properties have been extensively investigated. The photocatalytic behaviors, on the contrary, have not been investigated in detail. The photocatalytic properties of the metal-doped AlPOs, for the photodegrdation of organic dyes have been investigated in the Chapter 5. The metal ions (Mg2+, Zn2+ and Co2+) have been substituted in place of Al3+ and Ti4+ in place of both the Al3+ and P5+ in a variety in AlPO structures and the synthesized phases are characterized by a variety of techniques. Photodecomposition studies of organic dye molecules under UV-light were carried out in aqueous medium. The studies suggest that the photocatalytic activity is reasonable and appears to depend on the dopant concentration. Ti-substituted phase exhibits the maximum catalytic activity.
