Hanyang University, 133-791, Seoul, Korea Keywords : electrochromic, sol-gel, electrochemical, optical, current density Abstracts Electrochromic WO 3 thin film was prepared by using tungsten metal solution in hydrogen peroxide as a starting solution and by a sol-gel dip coating method. The thermal analysis was conducted by DSC/TG method. A DSC/TG analysis and the XRD patterns showed that a tungsten oxide crystal o o phase was formed at 400 C. WO 3 thin film when heat-treated at 300 C was amorphous and had a better electrochemical property than that of the crystalline phase. Crystallization of tungsten oxide decreased active sites of ion intercalation so that the current density decreased with heat-treatment temperature. I. INTRODUCTION Electrochromism in amorphous tungsten oxide has been extensively studied since it was discovered by Deb in 1969 1) . Tungsten oxide is reduced in electrolyte by applying voltage in which proton/lithium ion is inserted to form H xWO 3/Li xWO 3 (blue) and oxidized to the original form of WO 3 (transparent) by applying reverse voltage. Tungsten oxide electrochromic material has a variety of applications such as smart window, antireflection rear-view mirror, displays, and electrochromic glasses. Tungsten oxide thin film has been prepared by a variety of methods such as evaporation, sputtering, chemical vapor deposition, electrodeposition, sol-gel technique, etc 2) . Sol-gel coating method has the advantages of controlling stoichiometry and film structure. The chemical composition, crystal structure and microstructure of the film affect the electrochemical and electrochromic properties of tungsten oxide film. The tungsten oxide coating solutions have been synthesized by using many 3), 4) 5) 6) 7), 8) 9) kinds of starting materials of Na 2WO 4 , WOCl 4 , WCl 6 , W metal , tungsten alkoxide . The tungsten oxide thin film prepared by sol gel method has been reported to be comprised of micro-crystallites with a hexagonal-like structure when it is annealed at 190 oC 10) . The film prepared by sol gel method contains loosely bound water molecules when annealed at low temperature below 200 oC. Structurally bound water evaporates at 200-300 oC 11) . In this research, tungsten oxide thin film was prepared by a peroxotungstic acid precursor method. The thermal analysis of peroxotungstic acid precursor, crystal phase and microstructural development observations according to heat treatment temperature was conducted. In most of the sol-gel coating methods, tungsten oxide thin film has been prepared below 200 oC up to date. For this reason, we prepared a tungsten oxide thin film at 200-500 oC. The electrochemical and electrochromic properties of the tungsten oxide thin film heat-treated at various temperatures were analyzed II. EXPREIMENTAL PROCEDURE Tungsten metal powder or tungstic acid (H 2WO 4) used as starting materials was dissolved into 30% of hydrogen peroxide, which was so exothermically reactive that it was conducted at 70 o C. Ethanol was added to that solution whose molar concentration was varied from 0.1 to 1 M. All rights reserved.

(ID: 130.203.136.75, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, USA-09/04/16,09:49:36) 1082 Eco-Materials Processing and Design VIII WO 3 thin film was coated by dipping ITO-coated glass in the WO3 coating solution and o withdrawing. The withdrawing speed was 100mm/min. The WO 3 coated glass was dried at 100 C for 10min and then heat-treated at 200 to 500 oC for 2hrs in air. A thermal analysis of orange peroxotungstic solution was carried out by differential scanning calorimetry analysis (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG) method. The crystal phase development of WO 3 thin film with heat-treatment temperature was identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The cyclovoltammetry of WO 3 thin film was analyzed by Autolab PGASTA12 by applying voltage from –1V to 1V in 0.1M H 2SO 4 liquid electrolyte, of which scan speed was 20mV/s. Ultraviolet/Visible transmission properties of WO 3 thin film were measured at the state of colored by applying –1 V and bleached by applying 1V. III.

DSC and TG analysis of orange-colored Fig.2. TG and mass analysis of organge peroxotungstic peroxotungstic acid powders dried at 100 oC A DSC/TG analysis was conducted to investigate the thermal property of the peroxotungstic acid starting solution dried at 100 oC in oven. Fig. 1 shows the DSC/TG results of orange peroxotungstic acid powder. An endothermic peak in peroxotungstic acid solution appeared at 114 oC which was accompanied by weight losses. The weight loss below 200 oC was thought to be from water evaporation and hydrogen peroxide dissociation, measured by mass spectroscopy (Fig.2). The quantitiy of weight loss was 10% until 178oC. The small endothermic peak at 235 oC resulted from water dissociation from tungstic acid. The weight loss of 1.6 % until 350 oC corresponded to 1/4 12) H2O to WO 3·1/4H2O. It is assumed from DSC/TG analysis results that two steps of water and hydrogen peroxide elimination from perxotungstic acid occurred, where WO 3·xH 2O2·yH 2O was o o dissociated to WO 3·1/2H2O at 178 C, and then finally to WO 3 at 235 C. As is seen in Fig.1, an endothermic peak appeared at 445 oC and an exothermic peak was shown at 480oC which accompanied no weight loss. The peak at 445 oC corresponded to the crystallization of amorphous tungsten oxide to monoclinic phase, and the peak at 480oC was attributed to the crystalline phase transition from monoclinic to orthorhombic tungsten oxide. The crystal phase changes of WO 3 thin film on ITO glass was shown in Fig.3. As is seen, WO 3 thin o o film was amorphous at 300 C, but monoclinic phase WO 3 crystal peaks appeared at 400 C and the intensities of that peaks increased at 500 oC, which means that crystallinity increased with increasing o heat-treatment temperature. At 500 C, orthorhombic phase of WO 3 also appeared. The crystallization temperature of WO 3 was thought to be located between 300 and 400 , which was also expected at the results of DSC/TG analysis. Materials Science Forum Vols. 544-545 1083 ITO Fig. 4 shows the cyclic voltamograms of WO3-monoclinic o o o WO thin film heat-treated at 200 C, 300 C, 500 C 3 400 oC and 500 oC. The cyclovoltametric measurement of the WO 3 thin film was 400 oC conducted between –1V and +1V vs. Ag/AgCl in 0.1M H 2SO 4 solution and its scan 300 oC speed was 20mV/s. When –1 V was applied, Intensity (arb.unit) proton ion was inserted into WO 3 thin film and it became to H xWO 4 which is reduction o 200 C state, but it was oxidized to WO 3 when +1V 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 was applied. CV curve of tungsten film heat- o 2θ (degree) treated at 200 C was smaller than that at o 300 C, which is thought to have resulted Fig. 3. XRD patterns of tungsten oxide film on ITO from the impurities and the remaining organics in the tungsten oxide film. The according to heat-treatment temperature amorphous phase heat-treated at 300 oC had – 2.6mA/cm 2 of current density at reduction state and +1.3mA/cm 2 at oxidation state higher than – 2 2 o 0.8mA/cm and 0.5mA/cm of the WO 3 thin film heat-treated at 500 C. This phenomenon occurred probably because proton ion was diffused more easily into the amorphous phase of WO 3 thin film than the crystal phase. For this reason, current density of tungsten oxide thin film by applied voltage tented to decrease with heat-treatment temperature. It is known that WO 3 thin film has a higher current density when it is heat-treated below 200 oC, but its electrochemical stability is degraded. 13) The results of the cyclic voltametric measurement in this research demonstrated that heat-treatment o above 300 C decreased the CV properties of WO 3 thin film so that the optimum heat-treatment temperature was 300 oC.

However, the hydrocarbon surface of nonactin allows it to enter readily into, and pass through, membranes. Because nonactin binds and thus transports ions, the ion balance crucial to proper cell function is upset, and the cell dies. Ion Channels Ion channels, or “ion gates,” provide passageways for ions into and out of cells. (Recall that ions are not soluble in membrane phospholipids.) The flow of ions is essen- tial for the transmission of nerve impulses and for other biological processes. A typical chan- nel is a large protein molecule imbedded in a cell membrane. Through various mechanisms, ion channels can be opened or closed to regulate the concentration of ions in the interior of the cell. Ions do not diffuse passively through an open channel; rather, an open channel contains regions that bind a specific ion. Such an ion is bound specifically within the channel at one side of the membrane and is somehow expelled from the channel on the other side. Remark- ably, the structures of the ion-binding regions of these channels have much in common with the structures of ionophores such as nonactin. The first X-ray crystal structure of a potassium- ion channel was determined in 1998 by a team of scientists at Rockefeller University led by Prof. Roderick MacKinnon (b. 1956), who shared the 2003 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for this work. The interior of the channel contains binding sites for two potassium ions; these sites are oxygen-rich, much like the interior of nonactin.

    The Williamson ether synthesis The Williamson ether synthesis is an organic reaction, forming an ether from an alkyl halide and an alcohol. This reaction was developed by Alexander Williamson in 1850. It involves the reaction of an alkoxide ion with a primary alkyl halide via an SN2 reaction. The Williamson reaction is widely used in both laboratory and industrial synthesis, and remains the simplest and most popular method of preparing ethers. Both symmetrical and asymmetrical ethers are easily prepared.

  • Phosphine-Catalyzed Additions of Nucleophiles and Electrophiles to Α
    PHOSPHINE-CATALYZED ADDITIONS OF NUCLEOPHILES AND ELECTROPHILES TO α,β–UNSATURATED CARBONYL COMPOUNDS Reported by Michael Scott Bultman November 4, 2004 INTRODUCTION Organophosphorous compounds are becoming increasingly important in organic synthesis. Phosphines serve as precursors to phosphonium ylides in the Wittig reaction,1 and as nucleophilic triggers in the Mitsunobu2 and Staudinger3 reactions. In these processes, the phosphine is stoichiometrically consumed and converted into a phosphine oxide. Phosphines are also commonly used as ligands for transition metal-catalyzed reactions, to modulate reactivity and stereocontrol.4 On the other hand, the use of phosphines as nucleophilic catalysts for organic reactions has only gained attention in the last ten years. First reported by Rauhut and Currier in 1963,5 phosphine catalysis has since been reinvestigated after the phosphine ligands in some transition-metal-catalyzed reactions were found to be better catalysts than the metal/phosphine complexes alone!6 Phosphines are well suited for catalyzing the addition of both nucleophiles and electrophiles to electron deficient alkenes, alkynes, and allenes. Activation of these α,β-unsaturated carbonyl systems with the phosphine enables the formation of new bonds at the α-, β-, and γ-positions. This report will highlight these different modes of addition to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl systems under phosphine catalysis that allow for the formation of a wide array of products from a single class of substrates. GENERAL REACTIVITY OF PHOSPHINES Key characteristics required for successful nucleophilic catalysis lie in the balance of leaving group ability, nucleophilicity, and ease of ylid formation. Increasing leaving group ability can often be + correlated with decreasing basicity.

Brewster Young Contribution from the Centre for Research in Experimental Space Science, York Unicersity, Downsciew, Toronto, Canada, and Mobil Chemical Company, Edison, New Jersey 0881 7. Received June 15, 1970 Abstract: As part of a program directed toward an understanding of the intrinsic nature of anion-molecule re- actions involving organic constituents, rate constants have been measured, reaction channels have been identified, and intrinsic reaction probabilities (the ratios of the experimentally determined rate constants to the theoretical collision rate constants) have been calculated for the reactions of oxide, hydroxide, alkoxide, phenyl, and benzylic anions with methyl chloride. All measurements were made in the gas phase at 22.5" under thermal equilibrium conditions using the flowing afterglow technique. The highly charge-localized anions were found to react rapidly with methyl chloride with rate constants larger than 8 x 10-10 cm3molecule-1 sec-1 whereas the charge-delocalized anions reacted only slowly with rate constants less than 3 x 10-11 cm3molecule-1 sec-l. The formation of chloride ion was the dominant reaction channel observed in all cases. Calculated reaction probabilities were larger than 0.20 for the reactions involving highly charge-localized anions and less than 0.03 for the charge-delocalized anion re- actions. These results obtained in a rarified medium provide evidence for a correlation well known from solution studies, namely, a correlation between the reactivity of an anion and the nature of the distribution of its charge.
