چکیده
Pyrosmalite-(Fe), ideally Fe(II) (8)Si(6)O(15)(OH,Cl)(10) [refined composition in this study: Fe(8)Si(6)O(15)(OH(0.814)Cl(0.186))(10)·0.45H(2)O, octa-iron(II) hexa-silicate deca-(chloride/hydroxide) 0.45-hydrate], is a phyllosilicate mineral and a member of the pyrosmalite series (Fe,Mn)(8)Si(6)O(15)(OH,Cl)(10), which includes pyrosmalite-(Mn), as well as friedelite and mcgillite, two polytypes of pyrosmalite-(Mn). This study presents the first structure determination of pyrosmalite-(Fe) based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction data from a natural sample from Burguillos del Cerro, Badajos, Spain. Pyrosmalite-(Fe) is isotypic with pyrosmalite-(Mn) and its structure is characterized by a stacking of brucite-type layers of FeO(6)-octa-hedra alternating with sheets of SiO(4) tetra-hedra along [001]. These sheets consist of 12-, six- and four-membered rings of tetra-hedra in a 1:2:3 ratio. In contrast to previous studies on pyrosmalite-(Mn), which all assumed that Cl and one of the four OH-groups occupy the same site, our data on pyrosmalite-(Fe) revealed a split-site structure model with Cl and OH occupying distinct sites. Furthermore, our study appears to suggest the presence of disordered structural water in pyrosmalite-(Fe), consistent with infrared spectroscopic data measured from the same sample. Weak hydrogen bonding between the ordered OH-groups that are part of the brucite-type layers and the terminal silicate O atoms is present.

A DFT-Based Model on the Adsorption Behavior of H2O, H+, Cl-, and OH- on Clean and Cr-Doped Fe(110) Planes
The impact of four typical adsorbates, namely H2O, H+, Cl−, and OH−, on three different planes, namely, Fe(110), Cr(110) and Cr-doped Fe(110), was investigated by using a density functional theory (DFT)-based model. It is verified by the adsorption mechanism of the abovementioned four adsorbates that the Cr-doped Fe(110) plane is the most stable facet out of the three. As confirmed by the adsor...

A new monomeric diiron beta-Keggin derivative, [(CH3)2NH2]5[beta-SiFe2W10O36(OH)2(H2O)Cl].7H2O (1) with non-adjacent substituted sites has been obtained in good yield by reaction of Fe(III) cations with [gamma-SiW10O36]8- in aqueous solution. The use of hydrogen bonding counter-cations produced a disorder-free polyanion. This situation facilitates unequivocal identification of the terminal liga...

In a fundamental process throughout nature, reduced iron unleashes the oxidative power of hydrogen peroxide into reactive intermediates. However, notwithstanding much work, the mechanism by which Fe(2+) catalyzes H2O2 oxidations and the identity of the participating intermediates remain controversial. Here we report the prompt formation of O=Fe(IV)Cl3(-) and chloride-bridged di-iron O=Fe(IV) · ...
