When ozone is bubbled through aqueous solutions of simple silver salts, black compounds of silver in higher oxidation states are formed. A study has been made to establish the composition, structure and stability of the black precipitates. All available soluble silver salts whose anions are not oxidized by ozones silver nitrate, silver sulfate, silver perchlorate, silver acetate and silver fluoride were reacted with ozone in aqueous solutions. The compositions of the precipitates formed were determined to be, respectively, Ag708N03, Ag70eS04 , Ag408, AgO and AgO. Chemical analysis, determination of oxidising power and infrared spectral data were used to establish their composition. X-ray powder diffraction studies were used to characterize the structure of the compounds. A spinel type of structure similar to magnetite, Fe304 , has been proposed for the products obtained which contain part of the silver in an oxidation state higher than two. An attempt was made to substitute other divalent cations for the silver (II) ion in the precipitates obtained from the nitrate, sulfate and perchlorate solutions. Precipitates were obtained containing some Cd++ but in amounts too small to make conclusive statements. vii Varying the time of ozonlzation had no influence on the composition of the products obtained* Studies of the room temperature stability of the oxidised products obtained from silver nitrate, silver sulfate and silver perchlorate solutions showed that the stability drops off in the order given with the last being very unstable* It is suggested that the presence of AgNOa and AgS04 , re­ spectively, in the first two confers added stability which is lacking in the third, which does not contain AgC104 . Magnetic susceptibility measurements have given variable results for the molar susceptibilities of these compounds. It is suggested that the phenomenon being observed Is not normal paramagnetism but rather ferrimagnetism or possibly antiferromagnetism. Chemical analyses and x-ray data es­ tablished the same composition and structure for compounds of variable molar magnetic susceptibilities. A search was made to find new ligands which would stabilise silver (II) but it was not successful. Osone and potassium peroxydisulfate were used as oxidizing agents. The preparation of four new silver (I) complexes is reported. They are* Bis-(bensalethylenedilmlne) silver (I) nitrate, Bis-(2 pyridinaldasine) silver (I) nitrate, tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) silver (I) perchlorate and tetrakis(triphenylarsine ) silver (I) perchlorate. viii INTRODUCTION Except for a few, not well characterised higher oxides of silver, there are no other reports in the literature of simple compounds containing trivalent silver. Reports on these conpounds are contradictory. Lately, there has been a renewed Interest in this field, undoubtedly caused by the confused state of the literature and the importance of stu­ dying higher oxidation states of such a common metal as silver. When an aoueous solution of silver nitrate is electrolysed under certain conditions, a black compound of silver is formed at the anode. This compound was first described as far back as 1801* (67). Many people since then have tried to establish its composition. Today, 156 years later, still little agreement can be found in the literature. Boee (10) determined the decomposition point for silver nitrate and silver sulfate solutions. Only one potential break was found for each solution and she concluded that only one compound is formed at the anode in each case. She made no analysis because she considered that it was impossible to get accurate results. Luther and Pokorny (3P) prepared the so-called peroxy- nltrates and peroxysulfates and reduced them at constant current in normal caustic soda. Three definite potentials were observed against the hydrogen electrode in normal caus­ tic soda, one at 1*57 volts, a second at 1.1*1 volts, and a third at 1.17 volts. The second and third correspond to the AgaOa-AgaO and AgaO-Ag stages respectively. Tha value of 1.57 volts must correspond to a higher oxide to which they assigned the formula AgaOa . Since the sane curves were obtained with the peroxynitrate and peroxysulfate, Luther and Pokorny, like Bose, concluded that neither silver sulfate nor silver nitrate is an Integral part of the compound, which was therefore concluded to be an impure oxide of silver. Other earlier investigators of the black product, however, have shown by chemical analysis of the orecipltate, that its composition may be expressed by the formula AFtOqROj (UUi 6U, 66, 67). Brown (12), in a very careful comparison of the copper-silver coulometers ratios, together with determinations of the composition of the crystals, decided upon the formula 2Aga04 .AgNOa. Weber (68), discussed the probable valence of silver in the oxide part of the formula 2Aga04 .AgNOa, writing it either AgaAg04 by analogy to the magnetic iron oxide. His various electrolytic experiments led him to conclude that the last formula, Ag(AgOa )a in whioh one third of the silver is cathodic and divalent and two thirds anodic and trivalent, is in harmony with his experimental results• Jlrsa (29)f subjected pulverised silver to the action of dry osone. The black material obtained from KOH solution gave 1.57 volts which dropped to 1,1*3 in 20 minutes. The potential remained constant at the value of lJi3 corresponding to AgaOa . The initial eaf.of 1.57 volts Indicated the presence of AgaOa. He considered the product of oxidation with osone of Ag or AgaO as a solid ■olmtion of the following composition, xAgaOa *yAgaO a*sAgaO, tho relative proportion* of x, y, k , doponding upon tko conditions of tho oxidation* Barblori (p), stndiod tho prodnot fornod by dissolving AgO in oonoontrated HMO, to dotornino tho ratio of AgtO (active).

    IODINATION OF 3,5-DICHLOROANISOLE USING SILVER SALTS By Alex L Fan A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of Mississippi in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College. Oxford May 2017 Approved by ____________________________ Advisor: Professor Daniell Mattern ____________________________ Reader: Professor Davita Watkins ____________________________ Reader: Professor Nathan Hammer © 2017 Alex L Fan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Iodination of 3,5-dichloroanisole using silver salts (under the direction of Daniell Mattern) A paper published by Joshi et al. showed lower than expected yields in mono- and di-iodination of 3,5-dichloroanisole in dichloromethane using silver salts. One possibility for this could be that the starting material was being tri-iodinated and precipitating out of the solution. We used similar reaction conditions in attempts to prepare and isolate tri- iodinated product, but attempts of recrystallization from ethanol, DMSO, and 2- methoxyethanol showed no signs of it. Removal of silver iodide from the solids formed during the reaction using aqueous potassium iodide resulted in complete dissolution of the entire crude product, suggesting no organic product as well. This reaction was then combined with the concept of a solvent-less reaction based on a paper published by Bose et al. involving electrophilic aromatic halogenation using a ball milling machine. Variation of reagent equivalents, heat, and time have shown various percent compositions of the products 3,5-dichloro-2-iodoanisole

Con- sequently, when experiments that can lead to their formation are carried out, the risk of serious explosion is always present. GROWINGinterest in the applications of perchloric acid to analytical chemistry makes the recognition of its properties imperative. Perchloric acid and the perchlorates have a notorious reputation; this is due to numerous explosions that have been recorded (Hackl’; Meyer and Spormann2; Kahane3; Zahn4; Balks and Wehrrnann5; Young and Campbell6; and others to be mentioned later) and also to the lack of extensive investigations of their properties. Whilst it is not intended that the hazardous properties of perchloric acid should be belittled, it is thought that a better understanding of its character may dispel some of the fears that have * Much of the chemistry of perchloric acid and perchlorates is summarised in “The Chemical Elements and Their Compounds,” by N.

Freshly cut flowers were placed in glass cylinders containing 100 ml of preservative solutions [8-hydroxyquinoline sulfate (8-HQS) at 200 ppm, silver nitrate (AgNO3) at 10 ppm, Chitosan at 50, 75 or 100 ppm silver nano-particles (SN) at 5, 10 or 15 ppm, and distilled water as a control treatment].All preservative solutions and the control treatment included sucrose at 20 g/l. Compared to the control, treatments which contained of (AgNO3) or (SN) improved the quality and vase life of the flowers. They were more effective in promoting water uptake, increasing fresh weight of the flower and water balance so that the vase life of cut flowers were extended to 13.67 and 12 days during the first and second seasons, respectively. The results of bacterial count in the vase solution and the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) pictures of the cut base of the stem indicated that (AgNO3) or (SN) strongly reduced bacterial population in both the vase solution and the cut stem base.
