Upon treatment with a 23 24 10 % HCl solution it is transformed into the trihydrochloride 2, [C6N7(NHNH 3)3]Cl 3. 25 Compounds 1 and 2 were analysed with 13 C NMR, 15 N NMR, FTIR- and Raman- 26 27 spectroscopy. Furthermore, the single crystal X-ray structure of the pentahydrate of 2 is 28 reported ( P-1, a = 674.96(3), b = 1214.17(6), c = 1272.15(6) pm, α = 66.288(2)°, 29 6 3 30 β = 75.153(2)°, γ = 80.420(2)°, V = 920.30(8) · 10 pm , Z = 2, T = 90(2) K). The thermal 31 decomposition of 1 and 2 was investigated with TG/DTA. Reaction of 1 with NaNO /HCl 32 2 n 33 yields triazido-s-heptazine, C 6N7(N 3)3 3.

[2] 12 [3] 13 Among potential precursors for graphitic CN x materials, s-heptazine based 14 [4,5] [6] [7] [1g,8] 15 compounds, such as trichloro-s-heptazine, triazido-s-heptazine, melem and melon 16 attracted considerable interest in recent years. Here we report on the melem-related nitrogen- 17 18 rich substance 2,5,8-trihydrazino-s-heptazine 1 (Scheme 1). Although the synthesis of 1 has 19 [9] 20 been described in a patent in 1965, its further characterization was missing yet. 21 22 23 24 25 NH NH2 26 27 N N 28 29 30 H2N NH N NH NH2 31 32 2,4,6-trihydrazino-s-triazine 33 34 35 NH NH2 3+ 36 NH NH3 37 N N 38 N N 39 - 40 N N N 3Cl 41 N N N 42 H2N NHN N NH NH2 43 H3N NHN N NH NH3 44 45 2,5,8-trihydrazino-s-heptazine, 1 2,5,8-trihydrazino-s-heptazine trihydrochloride, 2 46 47 48 Scheme 1. 49 50 51 52 53 This fact becomes especially intriguing, when compared to the s-triazine derivative the 2,4,6- 54 55 trihydrazino-s-triazine (Scheme 1). The latter is a well known substance (its crystal structure 56 [10] 57 has been determined already in 1976) which found broad application in synthetic and 58 59 coordination chemistry. For instance, a variety of compounds combining the triazine core and 60 [11] different functional groups, such as CN, COOR, CH 2OH, CONH 2, N=N–R (R = alkyl, aryl)[12,13] can be obtained from 2,4,6-trihydrazino-s-triazine. Furthermore, it can act as a 2 Wiley-VCH Page 3 of 21 ZAAC 1 2 3 poly-dentate ligand, giving complexes with transition metals, such as Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(I), 4 [14] 5 and Zn(II). Zn(II) complexes of C 3N3(NHN=C(CH 3)2)3 were investigated for their non- 6 [15] 7 linear optic (NLO) properties. The industrial application of 2,4,6-trihydrazino-s-triazine as 8 9 a blowing agent in polymer industry for producing plastic foams is a consequence of its 10 ability to produce gaseous products by thermal decomposition. [16] 11 12 Contrary to 2,4,6-trihydrazino-s-triazine, compound 1 exhibits poor solubility in water and 13 14 organic solvents (dmf, dmso). In addition, chemical inactivity of its hydrazine groups (see 15 16 Results and Discussion) and relatively low yield of the reported procedure (27 %) are the 17 18 possible reasons for scant knowledge about 1. 19 During our investigation we improved the synthesis procedure of 1 (yield 47 %). The 20 21 crystal structure of 2,5,8-trihydrazino-s-heptazine trihydrochloride pentahydrate 2 was 22 23 determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction. Furthermore, the 2,5,8-triazido-s-heptazine 3, 24 25 an important intermediate to CN x-compounds and chemically-interesting substance, was 26 obtained by reaction of 1 with sodium nitrite in HCl-solution. One of the applications of 3 is a 27 28 synthesis of heptazine-based iminophosphoranes via the Staudinger reaction; [17] the latter 29 [18,20] 30 were suggested as halogen-free flame retardants for plastics. In this context, compound 4, 31 n 32 tris(tri butylphosphinimino)-s-heptazine, was synthesized by the Staudinger reaction of 3 with 33 n 34 tri butylphosphine. 35 36 37 38 Results and Discussion 39 40 The 2,5,8-trihydrazino-s-heptazine 1 was synthesized analogously to the reported 41 procedure,[9] while the reaction conditions were slightly modified (see Experimental Section). 42 43 The reaction was carried out according to Scheme 2. Two types of heptazine-containing 44 45 starting materials, i. e. melem and melon, can be engaged. This variation of starting materials 46 47 does not have any influence on the purity and yield of product 1. 48 2,5,8-trihydrazino-s-heptazine is a yellowish solid, which decomposes (changes its 49 50 colour to dark-brown) without melting at about 300°C and proved soluble in diluted mineral 51 52 acids, such as HCl, H 3PO 4, H 2SO 4, HNO 3. Contrary to our expectations, the nucleophilicity of 53 54 the terminal amino groups of hydrazine substituents in 1 is somewhat lower than in melem. 55 56 Besides Uhl et al. have performed several attempts to investigate reactivity of 1 towards 57 aluminium alkyls, aiming for alkylaluminium hydrazides.[19] Unfortunately, all reactions to 58 59 yield the expected product failed. Furthermore, our attempt to perform the Kirsanov reaction 60 [18,20] between 1 and PCl 5 failed, whereas this reaction route proceeds perfectly with melem. 3 Wiley-VCH ZAAC Page 4 of 21 1 2 3 One possible explanation is an involvement of the amino groups of 1 into strong hydrogen 4 5 bonding. 6 7 8 NH2 9 10 N N 11 12 N N N 13 NH NH 14 2 15 H2N N N NH2 16 N N 17 3 N2H4 H2O 18 N N N autoclave 19 NH2 20 H2N NHN N NH NH2 21 N N 22 1 23 24 N N N 25 26 HN N N NH 27 28 29 30 Scheme 2.

  • Solar Energy Harvesting with Carbon Nitrides: Do We Understand The
    Solar energy harvesting with carbon nitrides: Do we understand the mechanism? Wolfgang Domcke1, Johannes Ehrmaier1 and Andrzej L. Sobolewski2 1 Department of Chemistry, Technical University of Munich, D-85747 Garching, Germany 2 Institute of Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences, 02-668 Warsaw, Poland Email: [email protected] (Wolfgang Domcke) Abstract The photocatalytic splitting of water into molecular hydrogen and molecular oxygen with sunlight is the dream reaction for solar energy conversion. Since decades, transition-metal- oxide semiconductors and supramolecular organometallic structures have been extensively explored as photocatalysts for solar water splitting. More recently, polymeric carbon nitride materials consisting of triazine or heptazine building blocks have attracted considerable attention as hydrogen-evolution photocatalysts. The mechanism of hydrogen evolution with polymeric carbon nitrides is discussed throughout the current literature in terms of the familiar concepts developed for photoelectrochemical water splitting with semiconductors since the 1970s. We discuss in this perspective an alternative mechanistic paradigm for photoinduced water splitting with carbon nitrides, which focusses on the specific features of the photochemistry of aromatic N-heterocycles in aqueous environments. It is shown that a water molecule which is hydrogen-bonded to an N-heterocycle can be decomposed into hydrogen and hydroxyl radicals by two simple sequential photochemical reactions. This concept is illustrated by first-principles calculations of excited-state reaction paths and their energy profiles for hydrogen-bonded complexes of pyridine, triazine and heptazine with a water molecule. It is shown that the excited-state hydrogen-transfer and hydrogen-detachment reactions are essentially barrierless, in sharp contrast to water oxidation in the electronic ground state, where high barriers prevail.

Interestingly, this heptazine-based polymer optically behaves as a “quasi-monomer”. In this work, we explore upstream from melem (the heptazine monomer) to the triazine-based melamine and melam and present several lines of theoretical/experimental evidence where the catalytic activity of g-CN originates from the electronic structure evolution of the C−N heterocyclic cores. Periodic density functional theory calculations reveal the strikingly different electronic structures of melem from its triazine-based counterparts. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy also provide consistent results in the structural and chemical bonding variations of these three relevant compounds. Both melam and melem were found to show stable photocatalytic activities, while the photocatalytic activity of melem is about 5.4 times higher than that of melam during the degradation of dyes under UV−visible light irradiation. In contrast to melamine and melam, the frontier electronic orbitals of the heptazine unit in melem are uniformly distributed and well complementary to each other, which further determine the terminal amines as primary reduction sites.

  • Ab-Initio Spectroscopic Characterization of Melem-Based Graphitic Carbon Nitride Polymorphs
    nanomaterials Article Ab-Initio Spectroscopic Characterization of Melem-Based Graphitic Carbon Nitride Polymorphs Aldo Ugolotti and Cristiana Di Valentin * Dipartimento di Scienza dei Materiali, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, Via Cozzi 55, 20125 Milano, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Polymeric graphitic carbon nitride (gCN) compounds are promising materials in photoacti- vated electrocatalysis thanks to their peculiar structure of periodically spaced voids exposing reactive pyridinic N atoms. These are excellent sites for the adsorption of isolated transition metal atoms or small clusters that can highly enhance the catalytic properties. However, several polymorphs of gCN can be obtained during synthesis, differing for their structural and electronic properties that ultimately drive their potential as catalysts. The accurate characterization of the obtained material is critical for the correct rationalization of the catalytic results; however, an unambiguous experimental identification of the actual polymer is challenging, especially without any reference spectroscopic features for the assignment. In this work, we optimized several models of melem-based gCN, taking into account different degrees of polymerization and arrangement of the monomers, and we present a thorough computational characterization of their simulated XRD, XPS, and NEXAFS spectroscopic properties, based on state-of-the-art density functional theory calculations. Through this detailed study, we could identify the peculiar fingerprints of each model and correlate them with its structural and/or electronic properties. Theoretical predictions were compared with the experimental data Citation: Ugolotti, A.; Di Valentin, C. whenever they were available.

The programme was subsequently expanded to include evaluations of carcinogenic risks associated with exposures to complex mixtures, lifestyle factors and biological and physical agents, as well as those in specific occupations. The objective of the programme is to elaborate and publish in the form of monographs critical reviews of data on carcinogenicity for agents to which humans are known to be exposed and on specific exposure situations; to evaluate these data in terms of human risk with the help of international working groups of experts in carcinogenesis and related fields; and to indicate where additional research efforts are needed. The lists of IARC evaluations are regularly updated and are available on the Internet athttp:// monographs.iarc.fr/.

  • Triazine-Based Carbon Nitrides for Visible-Light-Driven Hydrogen Evolution
    Triazine-based Carbon Nitrides for Visible-Light-Driven Hydrogen Evolution K. Schwinghammer, B. Tuffy, M. B. Mesch, E. Wirnhier, C. Martineau, F. Taulelle, W. Schnick, J. Senker, and B. V. Lotsch The efficient conversion of solar energy into chemical energy is a major challenge of modern materials chemistry and energy research. One solution to the future’s energy demands will be the generation of hydrogen by photochemical water splitting as an environmentally clean energy carrier with a high energy density. So far the majority of photocatalysts are of an inorganic nature containing heavy metals which increase cost, impede scalability, and add complexity. Therefore, the development of efficient, stable, economically feasible, and environmentally friendly catalysts is required. For many years carbon nitrides (CxNyHz) were famed for their structural variety and potential as precursors for ultra-hard materials. The thermal condensation of simple carbon nitrides (CNs) can form several denser chemical species that differ with respect to their degree of condensation, hydrogen content, crystallinity and morphology. The discovery of extended carbon nitrides with semiconducting properties and band gaps < 3 eV makes them an attractive alternative to metal-rich semiconductors for photocatalysis. In 2009, Wang et al. investigated and determined for the first time the photocatalytic activity of polymeric melon-type CNs based on imide-bridged heptazine units (Fig. 1a).[1] Further publications focused on the modifications of those heptazine based carbon nitrides to improve their photocatalytic activity, e.g. by expanding their surface area, as well as by doping with heteroatoms and organic compounds, which gives rise to an enhanced absorption in the visible light range of the electromagnetic spectrum.
