Synthesis of Au2S and Au2S3 Using H2S, Short-Chain and Ring-Structured Sulfur as Sulfur Sources

چکیده
To determine which of the two known gold sulfides (containing either monoor trivalent gold) are formed by reacting trivalent gold with differnt allotropes o f sulfur, experiments were made using three different sources of sulfur. When trivalent gold in the form of A u 2 ( S 0 4 ) 3 in concen trated acid is reacted with electrolytically formed short-chain sulfur, monovalent gold sulfide (A u 2S) is formed. If hydrogen sulfide gas reacts with the same solution, trivalent gold sulfide (A u 2S3) is produced. Alternatively, if ordinary a-sulfur (ring structure) is used, a 50/50 mixture of Au2S and A u 2 S3 is formed. The synthesis procedure for the two gold sulfides is substantially simpler than previously reported methods of preparation.

In - situ Synthesis of Zeolite with Encapsulated Pt and Its Hydrogenation Activity at High Levels of Sulfur
In-situ synthesis of a zeolite with encapsulated Pt was conducted to prepare a sulfur-resistant noble metal catalyst based on concepts of shape selectivity and hydrogen spillover. The prepared zeolite was of the sodalite type, in which the pore openings allow H2 to enter the pores but not H2S. Chemisorption with H2/CO was conducted to verify the most of Pt atoms distribution in the cage of Pt/S...
متن کاملObservation of linear to planar structural transition in sulfur-doped gold clusters: Au(x)S- (x = 2-5).
We report a joint experimental and theoretical study on the structures of a series of gold clusters doped with a sulfur atom, Au(x)S(-) (x = 2-5). Well-resolved photoelectron spectra are obtained and compared with theoretical results calculated using several density functional methods to elucidate the structures and bonding of Au(x)S(-) (x = 2-5). Au2S(-) is found to have an asymmetric linear g...
متن کاملThe Study of Biological Technologies for the Removal of Sulfur Compounds
Combustion of sulfur components of fossil fuels such as oil causes the emission of SO2 in the atmosphere and lead to the formation of acidic rain in the environment. The conventional approach for desulfurization of fossil fuels is the chemical procedure of hydrodesulfurization (HDS). However, this method has low efficiency for desulfurization of ring components of sulfur such as dibenzothio...

The adsorption of the H2S molecule on the undoped and N-doped TiO2 anatase supported Au nanoparticles were studied using density functional theory calculations. The adsorption of H2S on both Au and TiO2 sides of the nanoparticle was examined. On the TiO2 side, the fivefold coordinated titanium site was found to be the most favorable binding site, giving rise to the strong interaction of H2S wit...
