Kippur September 25, 196L Standard inorganic textbooks list three sulfides of nitrogen, namely, NS 3 , nitrogen disulfide, N 4 S4 tetranltrogen tetrasulfide and N 3 S S , dlnitrogen pentasulfide. The compound N 3 S4, dinltrogen tetra- sulfide, has been isolated recently and its absorption spectra found to be Identical with that of nitrogen disulfide and of di- nltrogen pentasulfide wliich would indicate that the latter are actually dinltrogen tetrasulfide (l). Tetranltrogen tetrooulfide was first prepared by Gregory in 1835 (2). Although subsequent investigations have contributed a great deal to our present knowledge of tetranltrogen tetrasulfide, the exact nature of this compound with respect to many of its pro- perties and reactions is still undetermined. Physical Properties Tetranltrogen tetrasulfide is an orange-red crystalline mater- ial with a melting point of 179°C. It is not wet by water, but it is soluble in such solvents as carbon disulfide, benzene, chloroform and liquid ammonia. Tetranltrogen tetrasulfide and most of its derivatives, with the exception of cyclotetrathlatotrimine (N4S4IO, are sensitive to heat and shock; investigations have been carried out with respect to its possible use as a priming agent (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10 ). It has been found to be inferior to such materials as mercury (jl) fulminate and-is therefore not utilized for this 'purpose. Structure The structure of tetranltrogen tetrasulfide, which is in agreement with most of the available data, may bo represented as an eight-member ed puckered ring with alternating Sulfur and nitrogen atoms. (ll)(l2)(l3). Preparatio n There are two general modes of preparation: 1. The reaction of either sulfur mono chloride or sulfur di chloride with gaseous ammonia (I4)(l5)(l6)(l7)(l8)(l9) (20) (21) (22) (23) (24) (25) (26) (27) (28) (29), These reactions ^5<0"uu^ally carried out in a .non-aqueous nolvent (i,o CCJI4- C e K e ), and the by-products are uulfur, imlnosulfur (S 7 NH), and ammonium culflde and/or poly sulfide. 2* The reaction of sulfur and liquid o.mmonla (30)(3l). 10 S + 16 NH a (liq.) ^ £ N4S4, + 6(NH4 ) a S This reaction is a balanced one and the equilibrium may be shifted to the right 'by the addition of silver iodide which precipitates the sulfide ion. ) -2- Reactions Tetranitrogen tetrasulfide reaots with the ohlorides of Tl(lV), Sb.(V), Mo(V), Wlvi) and Se(l) in solvents, auoh as, chloroform and oarbon tetrachloride, to produoo addition oompounds (32) (33). The reaction' of tetranitrogen tetranulfide and lead (il) , iodide in liquid ammonia producoo the compoundg Pb(N3) 3 NH8 in con-' centrated solution and PbN a S, N*S*»3NH 3 in dilute solution (l6)(34l With meroury (II) iodide only the oompound HgN a S»NH 3 is formed, (16; Treatment of tetranitrogen tetrasulfide with ohlorine in non- aqueous media produces trithiazyl trichloride (NS) 3 Cl a # (34)(35)(36) (37), The corresponding bromine oompound has also been prepared ("8). These compounds were first reported to be tetrameric, but were later shown' to be trimerlo (34), Thiotrithiazyl chloride (NS) 8 SC1 is produced when tetranitrogen tetrasulfide reaots with either sulfur monochloride or thionyl chloride in a non-aqueous solvent (33) (39) (35) (40). The corres- ponding 'bromide is produced in a similar manner (33) (35), The iodide has also been prepared (35) (41), The 3 6* compounds behave as though the thiotrithiazyl group (NS) 3 S is a monovalent cation; treatment of thiotrithiazyl chloride with nitric acid, sulfuric add and thiocyanate ion yields the corresponding nitrate, bisulfate and thiocyanate (35), Further evidence for the lonio character of these materials is th6ir insolubility in most organio solvents (39). # Tetranitrogen tetrasulfide may be reduced in benzene solution to cyclotetrr.thiatetrlmlne (NSH) 4 upon treatment with an alcoholio solution of tin (II) chloride at 60 °C. (33). This material is un- usual as it is the only member of this group of compounds that is not sensitive to heat or Ohock (33) (42). In- strongly alkaline solution, tetranitrogen tetrasulfide undergoes hydrolysis to produce ammonia, thlosulfate and sulfite (42). However, in neutral or weakly alkaline solution trithionate, thlosulfate and ammonia are formed (12). Tetranitrogen tetrasulfide undergoes ammonalysis in liquid ammonia with the formation of ammonosulfurous and ammonothio sulfuric acids. This is evidenced by the formation of Pb(NS) a and HgN a 3 upon the addition of lead(ll) or meroury(Il) iodide to the above solution (16) (43). Uses 1. Insecticide (18)^4) (45) (46) (47) (48) (49) (50 ) (51 2. Fungicide (18) (44) (52) (53) (54) ' 3. Ignition promoter for diesel fuels (55) (56) 4. Accelerator in the vulcanization of rubter (57) 5. Indicator in the titration of aoldg in non-aqueous solvents (58) (59). -3- The utilization of tetranitrogen tetrasulfide as an inseotioido and fungicide is by far its most important praotloal application.

The chemical complexity of these fractions of oil creates difficulties for their understanding and the prediction of their behavior. However, many authors have performed studies related to their chemical structure and properties, proposing molecules as asphaltene models, mainly based on data obtained by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), elemental analysis and molecular weight [2]. Asphaltenes can cause serious problems in oil exploration, triggered mainly to their deposition that is due to the level of molecular aggregation. The problems caused by the deposition of asphaltenes are present from the exploration to the refining of the petroleum. Thus, it is extremely important to know the mechanisms of aggregation of asphaltenes. In this work, we performed a theoretical study of the homodimerization and self- aggregation of asphaltene model compounds A and B (Figure 1). These model compounds contain fused aromatic rings and heterocyclic fragments representative of asphaltenes tethered with butyl linkers to represent archipelago asphaltenes [3].

    Novel Triadius-Like N4 Specie of Iron Nitride Compounds Under High

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Novel triadius-like N4 specie of iron nitride compounds under high pressure Received: 11 May 2018 Yuanzheng Chen1, Xinyong Cai1, Hongyan Wang1, Hongbo Wang2 & Hui Wang2 Accepted: 2 July 2018 Various nitrogen species in nitrides are fascinating since they often appear with these nitride as Published: xx xx xxxx superconductors, hard materials, and high-energy density. As a typical complex, though iron nitride has been intensively studied, nitrogen species in the iron–nitrogen (Fe-N) compounds only have been confned to single atom (N) or molecule nitrogen (N2). Using a structure search method based on the CALYPSO methodology, unexpectedly, we here revealed two new stable high pressure (HP) states at 1:2 and 1:4 compositions with striking nitrogen species. The results show that the proposed FeN2 stabilizes by a break up of molecule N2 into a novel planar N4 unit (P63/mcm, >228 GPa) while FeN4 stabilizes by a infnite 1D linear nitrogen chains N∞ (P-1, >50 GPa; Cmmm, >250 GPa). In the intriguing N4 specie of P63/mcm-FeN2, we fnd that it possesses three equal N = N covalent bonds and forms a perfect triadius-like confguration being never reported before. This uniqueness gives rise to a set of remarkable properties for the crystal phase: it is identifed to have a good mechanical property and a potential for phonon-mediated superconductivity with a Tc of 4–8 K. This discovery puts the Fe-N system into a new class of desirable materials combining advanced mechanical properties and superconductivity. Nitrogen (N) is the most abundant element in the earth’s atmosphere and is one of the least studied elements regarding the composition of the Earth1.

Dodecyltributylphosphonium bromide (C12TBPBr), dodecyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (C12TPPBr), or dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (C12TMACl) were used as the organic species of the + + + inorganic­organic composite. It was suggested that C12TBP ,C12TPP ,orC12TMA were intercalated by ion- + exchange with interlayer H of HCa2Nb3O10. The acid­base reaction was evaluated by consecutive deacetalization­Knoevenagel reactions. The product of the second-step reaction of the inorganic­organic composite catalysts was obtained, which suggested that the composites were acid­base bifunctional materials. For composites prepared using HCa2Nb3¹xTaxO10 (x = 1, 2, and 3) as inorganic species, the base catalytic activity decreased with decreasing fraction of organic species. Therefore, the hydrophobicity of the layered compounds affected the catalytic activity of the composite. Various catalysts should be prepared using reported layered perovskite-type compounds having various compositions. ©2020 The Ceramic Society of Japan.

Materials based on the pillared cyano-bridged architecture, [Ni’(L)Ni(CN)4]n (L = pillar organic ligands), also known as PICNICs, have been shown to be especially diverse where pore size and pore functionality can be varied by the choice of pillar organic ligand. In addition, a number of PICNICs form soft porous structures that show reversible structure transitions during the adsorption and desorption of guests. The structural flexibility in these materials can be affected by relatively minor differences in ligand design, and the physical driving force for variations in host-guest behavior in these materials is still not known. One key to understanding this diversity is a detailed investigation of the crystal structures of both rigid and flexible PICNIC derivatives. This article gives a brief review of flexible MOFs. It also reports the crystal structures of five PICNICS from our laboratories including three 3-D porous frameworks (Ni-Bpene, NI-BpyMe, Ni-BpyNH2), one 2-D layer (Ni-Bpy), and one 1-D chain (Ni-Naph) compound.

Additionally, it was found that K. pneumoniae strain is not only able to degrade potassium cyanide, but also to degrade potassium hexacyano- ferrate(II) trihydrate and sodium ferrocyanide decahydrate with the effi ciencies of 85 and 87.5 %, respectively. Furthermore, this strain degraded potassium cyanide in the presence of diff erent ions such as magnesium, nickel, cobalt, iron, chromium, arsenic and zinc, in variable concentrations (0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 mM) and as a result the amount of the bacteria in the biodegradation media decreased with the increase of ion concentration. Lastly, it was also observed that sterile crude extract of K. pneumoniae strain degraded potassium cya- nide on the fi ft h day of incubation. Based on these results, it is concluded that both culture and sterile crude extract of K. pnemoniae will be used in cyanide removal from diff erent wastes.

ABSTRACT: Structural and spectroscopic characterization of the dimeric iron t hydride complex [Ph2B( BuIm)2FeH]2 reveals an unusual structure in which a tetrahedral iron(II) site (S = 2) is connected to a square planar iron(II) site (S =1) by two bridging hydride ligands. Magnetic susceptibility reveals strong ferromagnetic coupling between iron centers, with a coupling constant of J = −1 o legitimately share published articles. +110(12) cm , to give an S = 3 ground state. High-frequency and -field electron paramagnetic resonance (HFEPR) spectroscopy confirms this model. A qualitative molecular orbital analysis of the electronic structure, as supported by electronic structure calculations, reveals that the observed spin configuration results from the orthogonal alignment of two geometrically distinct four-coordinate iron fragments held together by highly covalent hydride ligands.

However, synthesis and storage of such compounds remain a big challenge because of difficulties to find energy efficient synthetic routes and stabilization mechanisms. Compounds of metals with nitrogen represent promising candidates for realization of energetic polynitrogen compounds, which are also environmentally benign. Here we report the synthesis of polynitrogen planar N6 hexazine rings, stabilized in K2N6 compound, which was formed from K azide upon laser heating in a diamond anvil cell at high pressures in excess of 45 GPa and remains metastable down to 20 GPa. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy are used to identify this material, also exhibiting metallic luster, being all consistent with theoretically predicted structural, vibrational and electronic properties. The documented here N6 hexazine rings represent new highly energetic polynitrogens, which have a potential for future recovery and utilization.
