Electronic Structure and Crystal Phase Stability of Palladium Hydrides
Electronic structure and crystal phase stability of palladium hydrides Abdesalem Houari∗ Theoretical Physics Laboratory, Department of Physics, University of Bejaia, Bejaia, Algeria Samir F. Matar† CNRS, ICMCB, Universit´ede Bordeaux, 33600 Pessac, France Volker Eyert‡ Materials Design SARL, 92120 Montrouge, France (Dated: November 4, 2014) The results of electronic structure calculations for a variety of palladium hydrides are presented. The calculations are based on density functional theory and used different local and semilocal approximations. The thermodynamic stability of all structures as well as the electronic and chemical bonding properties are addressed. For the monohydride, taking into account the zero-point energy is important to identify the octahedral Pd-H arrangement with its larger voids and, hence, softer hydrogen vibrational modes as favorable over the tetrahedral arrangement as found in the zincblende and wurtzite structures. Stabilization of the rocksalt structure is due to strong bonding of the 4d and 1s orbitals, which form a characteristic split-off band separated from the main d-band group. Increased filling of the formerly pure d states of the metal causes strong reduction of the density of states at the Fermi energy, which undermines possible long-range ferromagnetic order otherwise favored by strong magnetovolume effects. For the dihydride, octahedral Pd-H arrangement as realized e.g. in the pyrite structure turns out to be unstable against tetrahedral arrangemnt as found in the fluorite structure. Yet, from both heat of formation and chemical bonding considerations the dihydride turns out to be less favorable than the monohydride. Finally, the vacancy ordered defect phase Pd3H4 follows the general trend of favoring the octahedral arrangement of the rocksalt structure for Pd:H ratios less or equal to one. -

HERBERT CHARLES BROWN May 22, 1912–December 19, 2004 BY EI -ICH I NEGISHI ERBERT CHARLES BROWN, R. B. Wetherill Research Profes- Hsor Emeritus of Purdue University and one of the truly pioneering giants in the field of organic-organometallic chemistry, died of a heart attack on December 19, 2004, at age 92. As it so happened, this author visited him at his home to discuss with him an urgent chemistry-related matter only about 10 hours before his death. For his age he appeared well, showing no sign of his sudden death the next morn- ing. His wife, Sarah Baylen Brown, 89, followed him on May 29, 2005. They were survived by their only child, Charles A. Brown of Hitachi Ltd. and his family. H. C. Brown shared the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1979 with G. Wittig of Heidelberg, Germany. Their pioneering explorations of boron chemistry and phosphorus chemistry, respectively, were recognized. Aside from several biochemists, including V. du Vigneaud in 1955, H. C. Brown was only the second American organic chemist to win a Nobel Prize behind R. B. Woodward, in 1965. His several most significant contribu- tions in the area of boron chemistry include (1) codiscovery of sodium borohyride (1972[1], pp. -
Frontiers in Iridium-Catalyzed CH Borylation
Frontiers in Iridium-Catalyzed C-H Borylation: Attaining Novel Reactivity and Selectivity By Matthew Alan Larsen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor John F. Hartwig, Chair Professor Robert G. Bergman Professor Alexis T. Bell Fall 2016 Abstract Frontiers in Iridium-Catalyzed C-H Borylation: Attaining Novel Reactivity and Selectivity By Matthew Alan Larsen Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of California, Berkeley Professor John F. Hartwig, Chair The following dissertation discusses the development of novel methodology for the catalytic borylation of C-H bonds and includes in-depth studies on the mechanism and selectivity of these synthetic transformations. These methods include the borylation of heteroaryl C-H bonds, the selective borylation of benzylic C-H bonds, and the directed and undirected borylation of unactivated alkyl C-H bonds. Chapter 1 contains a comprehensive review of C-H borylation methodology. This review focuses on the initial development of catalytic C-H borylation and on the state-of- the-art of methodology for the undirected and directed borylation of aryl, benzylic, and alkyl C-H bonds. Additionally, this review highlights knowledge gaps and unsolved challenges. Furthermore, this review provides the author’s opinion on future directions for research on the borylation of C-H bonds. Chapter 2 describes the study of the iridium-catalyzed borylation of heteroaryl C- H bonds. Contained is an examination of the scope of the borylation of heterocycles containing more than one heteroatom and rules for predicting the site-selectivity of this reaction. -

Stennett and Sjoerd Harder* Metal amidoborane compounds of the alkali- and alkaline earth metals have in recent years found applications in diverse disciplines, notably as hydrogen storage materials, as reagents for the reduction of organic functional groups and as catalysts and intermediates in dehydrocoupling reactions. These functions are connected by the organometallic chemistry of the MNR2BH3 group.† This review focusses on central aspects of the s-block amidoborane compounds – their syntheses, structures and reactivity. Well-defined amidoborane complexes of group 2 metals are now available by a variety of solution-phase routes, which has allowed a more detailed analysis of this functional group, which was previously largely confined to solid-state materials chemistry. Structures obtained from X-ray crystallography have begun to provide increased understanding of the fundamental steps of key processes, including amine–borane Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. dehydrocoupling and hydrogen release from primary and secondary amidoboranes.

The Response of Work Function of Thin Metal Films to Interaction with Hydrogen
Vol. 114 (2008) ACTA PHYSICA POLONICA A Supplement Proceedings of the Professor Stefan Mr¶ozSymposium The Response of Work Function of Thin Metal Films to Interaction with Hydrogen R. Du¶s¤, E. Nowicka and R. Nowakowski Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences Kasprzaka 44/52, 01-224 Warszawa, Poland The aim of this paper is to summarize the results of experiments carried out at our laboratory on the response of the work function of several thin ¯lms of transition metals and rare earth metals to interaction with molecular hydrogen. The main focus concerns the description of surface phenomena accompanying the reaction of hydride formation as a result of the adsor- bate's incorporation into the bulk of the thin ¯lms. Work function changes ¢© caused by adsorption and reaction concern the surface, hence this ex- perimental method is appropriate for solving the aforementioned problem. A di®erentiation is made between the work function changes ¢© due to cre- ation of speci¯c adsorption states characteristic of hydrides, and ¢© arising as a result of surface defects and protrusions induced in the course of the reaction. The topography of thin metal ¯lms and thin hydride ¯lms with defects and protrusions was illustrated by means of atomic force microscopy. For comparison, the paper discusses work function changes caused by H2 in- teraction with thin ¯lms of metals which do not form hydrides (for example platinum), or when this interaction is performed under conditions excluding hydride formation for thermodynamic reasons. Almost complete diminishing of ¢© was observed, in spite of signi¯cant hydrogen uptake on some rare earth metals, caused by formation of the ordered H{Y{H surface phase. -
