In Situ EXAFS Characterisation of the Synthesis of Polynuclear Chloroniobates from Sm Atom Reactions with Niobium Pentachloride
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new method to prepare solid state chlorometallates by reductive dechlorination of solvated niobium pentachloride with vaporisation of nominally free atoms of samanum is described. Products were prepared in an original set-up by evaporation of samarium into a mixed toluene solution of NbCl,, at 180 K. The local order around the Nb atoms was probed by EXAFS spectroscopy at the Nb K edge, using an in situ cryostat coupled to the metal vapour oven, in order to better understand the condensation mechanisms. These in situ measurements confirm our previous ex situ EXAFS studies with solid state products obtained by Sm vaporisation: condensation of NbCl, by face-sharing octahedra.

Efficient one-pot synthesis of 14-aryl-14 -dibenzo[ , ]xanthene derivatives promoted by niobium pentachloride
A simple and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 14-aryl-14H-dibenzo[a,j ]xanthene derivatives through one-pot condensation of 2-naphthol with aryl aldehydes in the presence of niobium pentachloride is described. The reactions were carried out using 25 mole % of NbCl5, at ambient temperature, and in acceptable reaction times, affording excellent yields of the products. c © 2014 Institute o...

Microwave assisted green synthesis of α, ά- bis (substituted- benzylidene) alkanones by the crossed- aldol condensation reaction of substituted aryl aldehydes with ketones in the presence of catalytic amount of NbCl5 in good to excellent yields. This reaction is carried out under solvent-free conditions. The results showed that aldehydes bearing electron–donating substituent's on phenyl-ring fa...
متن کاملNew synthesis of nanosized niobium oxides and lithium niobate particles and their characterization by XPS analysis.
This work presents a new synthesis of nano-sized lithium niobate particles by a low temperature three steps procedure. The complete protocol implies a LiH induced reduction of NbCl5 followed by in situ spontaneous oxidation into low valence niobium nano-oxides. These niobium oxides are exposed to air atmosphere leading to pure Nb2O5 formation. Finally, the stable Nb2O5 is converted into lithium...

The combinations of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride with NbCl5 yielded ionic mixtures with different melting point temperatures and acidity depending on the niobium molar fraction. The mixtures were characterized by thermal (DSC) and spectroscopic (FT-IR and H NMR) analysis. The Pechmann reactions of different phenols with ethylacetoacetate, producing coumarins, was used as model to evalua...
متن کاملHigh stereoselectivity on low temperature Diels-Alder reactions
We have found that some of the usually poor dienophiles (2-cycloenones) can undergo Diels-Alder reaction at -78 degrees C with unusually high stereoselectivity in the presence of niobium pentachloride as a Lewis acid catalyst. A remarkable difference in reaction rates for unsubstituted and alpha- or beta-methyl substituted 2-cycloenones was also observed.
