The compound is stable in air and decomposes at 235 ◦C. In the crystal structure, the two independent perrhenate anions are not approaching the gold centers of the two independent cations, but weak interionic interactions are entertained via p-p stacking of phenyl groups and C–H···O contacts. As three-blade chiral rotors, the Ph3P ligands of the cations are in a staggered conformation at the gold atoms with only slightly bent P–Au–P axes. IR and NMR data show no anomalies and are close to those of alkali or onium perrhenates.

  • A Contribution to the Chemistry of Rhenium
    U. S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS RESEARCH PAPER RP999 Part of Journal of Research of the J'Xational Bureau of Standards, Volume 18, May 1937 A CONTRIBUTION TO THE CHEMISTRY OF RHENIUM . By C. E. F. Lundell and H. B. Knowles ABSTRACT A study of the behavior of rhenium when dilute solutions of potassium per­ rhenate are acidified with sulphuric acid, cooled, and passed through the Jones reductor, indicates that rhenium forms a compound in which it has a valency of minus one, and that the rhenium in this compound is oxidized to a valency of plus one if the diluted sulphuric acid solution is protected from oxygen and warmed to approximately 50° C. In the course of the investigation, it was also found (1) that rhenium can be electrodeposited from diluted (5+95) sulphuric acid solution; (2) that deposits are slightly contaminated; and (3) that the deposited metal can be oxidized directly to perrhenic acid by exposure to moist air, oxygen, or by making the deposit the anode in a water solution.

  • Simulating the Micro Uidic Solvent Extraction of Perrhenate
    Simulating the microfluidic solvent extraction of perrhenate Investigating the influence of pH and leakage by Miranda van Duijn to obtain the degree of Bachelor of Science at the Delft University of Technology, to be defended publicly on Tuesday January 23, 2018 at 10:00 AM. Student number: 4355776 Project duration: September, 2017 – January 23, 2018 Thesis committee: Ir. Z. Liu, TU Delft, supervisor Dr. ir. M. Rohde, TU Delft Prof. dr. ir. J.L. Kloosterman TU Delft Abstract Several of the researches conducted at the Reactor Institute Delft (RID) concern the extraction process of perrhenate, ReO4¡. From the perrhenate, rhenium-188 (Re-188) is obtained. Re-188 is medically useful as a high energy ¯ emitter. It can be used as an imaging agent, for in situ tumor treatment and biodistribution. Re-188 is produced via commercially available 188W /188Re radionuclide generators, which have proved their usefulness as a conventional product. Via the production with this generator, the ReO4¡ resides in an aqueous solution together with other compounds such as tungsten-188 (W-188). To medically use the ReO4¡, it needs to be of a certain degree of radionuclidic purity, the proportion of the total radioactivity that is present as a specific radionuclide. [1] A relatively new method to extract the ReO4¡ from the aqueous solution into a liquid organic phase might be microfluidic solvent extraction. This principle is based on the laminar coflowing of two liquid immisci- ble phases between which an interface develops. The ReO4¡ is then transferred through the interface, thus leading to an extraction. Microfluidic solvent extraction offers several inherent advantages, such as the high surface-to-volume ra- tio and short diffusion distances.

Their extensive dehydration to MzO7 in such media as 7 M sulphuric acid complicates a spectrophotometric com- parison of acid strengths. Chloroform extractable TcO~C1 forms from pertechnetate in the presence of chloride ion and concentrated sulphuric acid. The (VII) state of this compound is confirmed and its spectrum described. No evidence of unusual technetium (VII) species, in aqueous media of 1 N base to 1 N acid, has been found. The red colour of concentrated aqueous HTcO4 is ascribed to a lower (VI) or (V) state. The existence in alkaline media of a technetate, TcOsg-, species has been re-examined. Some (IV) and (III) state species are partially characterized, but no Tc~Os could be isolated. INTRODUCTION WHILS the chemistry of technetium closely parallels that of rhenium, any distinctions of behaviour in the sequence Mn-Tc-Re are of great interest. A chronological comparison of recent summaries of technetium chemistry(1-5) shows this to be a rather active area of study. The results of the present study are described in sections associated with species and oxidation states. The conventional techniques and equipment employed are described very concisely.

  • Heterogeneous Catalytic Reduction of Perchlorate in Water
    Heterogeneous Catalytic Reduction of Perchlorate in Water Keith D. Hurley Final Seminar September 19, 2008 - The perchlorate ion, ClO4 , is today widely regarded as a contaminant of ground and surface waters, as well as soil, throughout the United States, with over 400 recognized contaminated sites in 35 states [1]. The chemistry of perchlorate is dominated entirely by kinetics, and its high kinetic barrier to reduction makes it effectively inert to reduction by typical nucleophilic reducing agents or to complexation [2-4]. The argument for perchlorate remediation is based on its known interference with normal thyroid function [5]. The cause of this interference is the preferential uptake of perchlorate over iodide by the thyroid [6]. It is well established that the thyroid regulates neural development in fetuses and infants [7]. Current perchlorate remediation strategies are largely limited to ion exchange (IX) or bioremediation [8, 9]. In 1995 Abu-Omar and Espenson [10] showed that a rhenium(V) complex in aqueous solution, formulated as methylrhenium dioxide (MDO), can react relatively rapidly with perchlorate by an oxygen atom transfer (OAT) reaction to form an rhenium(VII) complex (methylrhenium trioxide, MTO) and chlorate. The cycle could be closed by reducing the Re(VII) complex back to the Re(V) complex with hypophosphorous acid (H3PO2) [11]. Such a homogeneous catalyst with a soluble phosphorus or sulfur reducing agent is not readily compatible with water purification systems. In an effort to make a catalytic system more compatible with water treatment a heterogeneous catalyst has been developed that promotes the reduction by hydrogen of perchlorate ion in water under mild conditions.

The successful reactions required 5 mol% of indium(III) triflate, and toluene was proved to be the most suitable solvent. Various amides were subjected to this method, and each produced the corresponding nitriles in excellent yields. Keywords Indium(III) Triflate; Primary Amides; Nitriles 1.
