    Preparation of Telluric Acid from Tellurium Dioxide by Oxidation with Potassium Permanganate Frank C. Mathers, Charles M. Rice, Howard Broderick, and Robert Forney, Indiana University General Statement Tellurium dioxide, Te0 2 , although periodically similar to sulfur dioxide, cannot be oxidized by nitric acid to the valence of six, i.e., to telluric acid, H 2 Te04.2H 2 0. Among the many stronger oxidizing agents that will produce this oxidation, potassium permanganate in a nitric acid solution is quite satisfactory. This paper gives directions and data for the preparation of telluric acid by this reaction. The making of telluric acid is a desirable laboratory experiment because (1) tellurim dioxide is available in large quantities and is easily obtained, (2) the telluric acid is a stable compound, easily purified, easily crystallized, and non-corrosive, and (3) students are interested in experimenting with the rarer elements. The small soluibility of telluric acid and the high solubility of both manganese and potassium nitrates in nitric acidi gives a sufficient differ- ence in properties for successful purification by crystallization of the telluric acid. Methods of Analyses Tellurium dioxide can be volumetrically 2 titrated in a sulfuric acid solution by an excess of standard potassium permanganate, followed by enough standard oxalic acid to decolorize the excess of permanganate. The excess of oxalic acid must then be titrated by more of the perman- ganate. The telluric acid can be titrated, like any ordinary monobasic acid, 3 (1911). with standard sodium hydroxide using phenolphthalein as an indicator, if an equal volume of glycerine is added. If any nitric acid is present, it must be neutralized first with sodium hydroxide, using methyl orange as indicator.

J. W. Elder and I. Vargas-Baca* 125 The frequency of the resonance of Te of two organo-ditellurides, R–Te–Te–R (R = 4-CH3C6H4 and 2-(CH3)2NCH2C6H4), in solution undergoes a low-field shift as the concentration of the sample increases. In sharp contrast, the resonance of a sterically hindered ditelluride (R = (C6H5(CH3)2Si)3C) and telluric acid Received 25th August 2016, display the opposite effect. While the negative concentration coefficients can be explained by the change Accepted 11th October 2016 in magnetic susceptibility, the positive coefficients are consistent with autoassociation of the molecules DOI: 10.1039/c6cp05892b through tellurium-centred supramolecular interactions. Although the corresponding equilibrium constants are small, the process is shown to be exothermic. However, the influence of autoassociation is much www.rsc.org/pccp smaller than the effects of solvent polarity and the conformation of the ditelluride bond.

A review of the literature shows that there have been several methods of preparing telluric acid. Meyer and Franke (4) oxidized the elementary tellurium with a mixture of barium chlorate and sulfuric acid. Krepelka and Kubik (2) oxidized the elementary tellurium with 30 percent hydrogen peroxide, but their method necessitated using a 10-15 fold excess of the oxidizing agent. Staundenmaier (9) reacted a mixture of nitric and chromic acids with tellurium dioxide to effect oxidation to telluric acid. The procedure as developed by Mathers et al. (3) is the most widely used. Crude tellurium dioxide is purified and then oxidized by a slight excess of permanganate in a hot solution of about five molar nitric acid.

Several preparations for the compound have been in- vestigated which are based on the oxidation of either the free element, or one of the compounds of a lower oxidation state. The methods for a quantitative analysis are not comprehensive and are usually rather long and tedious. Probably the most widely accepted preparation is that of Mathers and co-workers, which is based on the action of potassium permanganate in a acid medium, on tellurium dioxide (10). This method gives a very good yield of the crude product, but some of the impurities which are inherent in the preparation must be eliminated by further chemical ac- tion on the product. The method of Meyer and Franke (11) of oxidiz- ing the free element with chloric acid, has given yields of ninety to ninety-five percent. However, the number of reaction products formed leads to a large number of impurities which must be eliminated.

I/R injury (IRI) occurs due to the tissue injury following the reestablishment of blood supply to ischemic tissues, leading to enhanced aseptic inflammation and stimulation of oxidative stress via reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS). Since ROS causes membrane lipids’ peroxidation, triggers loss of membrane integrity, denaturation of proteins, DNA damage, and cell death, oxidative stress plays a critical part in I/R pathogenesis. Therefore, ROS regulation could be a promising therapeutic Citation: Ucar, B.I.; Ucar, G.; Saha, S.; strategy for IRI.

  • Chemical Transformations in Ultrathin Chalcogenide Nanowires
    Chemical Transformations in Ultrathin Chalcogenide Nanowires Geon Dae Moon, Sungwook Ko, Younan Xia, and Unyong Jeong Department Biomedical Engineering Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri 63130 ACS Nano, 2010, 4 (4), pp 2307–2319 26th June 2010 Introduction Recently, chemical transformation of nanostructured materials has gained growing interest, due to the ability to transform existing materials to greatly diversify the compositions of nanostructured materials. It facilitates the synthesis of novel materials consisting of multiple components which may not be directly obtainable via a conventional synthesis. Furthermore, it might generate unprecedented shapes and unexpected crystal structures due to the mechanical stress accumulated during the transformation. Among various chemical transformations, Ion (cation/anion) exchange reactions have been demonstrated to be facile methods to modify the chemical composition of inorganic nanocrystals and have been extensively studied in the general areas of catalyst and thin film technology. A number of cations such as Ag+, Sb3+, Bi3+, and Cu+ have been used to replace the Cd2+ ions in thin films of CdSe and CdS. Transformation through cation exchange For the transformation of semiconductors, most studies have focused on the cation exchange of chalcogenides, whose crystal structures are determined by the frameworks of the chalcogen anions (S2-,Se2-, Te 2-). The metal cations are relatively mobile in the anionic framework, making it possible to replace the cations under moderate reaction conditions. Alivisatos et al. demonstrated the cationexchange reaction between Ag2Se and CdSe nanocrystals was completely reversible by adjusting the reaction conditions. Alivisatos et al. Science 2004, 306, 1009-1012. Transformation through cation exchange Xia et al. showed that such transformation could be realized in mesoscale colloids.
