Abstract The reaction of [Cu(NCMe)4]PF6 with piperidinium 2,7-di- tert -butyl-9H -fluorene-9-carbodithioate (pipH)[S2C(tBu-Hfy)] (1; tBu-Hfy = 2,7-di- tert -butylfluoren-9-yl), affords [Cun{S2C(tBu-Hfy)}n] (2), which reacts with various P ligands to give [Cu{S2C(tBu-Hfy)}L2] [L = PPh3 (3a), PCy3 (3b), PiPr3 (3d); L2 = 1,1,-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ferrocene (dppf, 3c), bis(diphenylphosphanyl)methane (dppm, 3e)]. Compounds 3a,c react with atmospheric oxygen and moisture in the presence of NEt3 to give the dinuclear complexes [Cu2{[SC=(tBu-fy)]2S}L2] [tBu-fy = 2,7-di- tert -butylfluoren-9-ylidene; L = PPh3 (4a), PCy3 (4b); L2 = dppf (4c)], which contain a new dithiolato ligand formally resulting from the condensation of two dithioato ligands with loss of a sulfide ion and two protons. Neutral CuI dithiolate complexes of the type [Cu4{S2C=(tBu-fy)}2L4] [S2C=(tBu-fy) = [2,7-di- tert -butylfluoren-9-ylidene)methanedithiolate; L = PPh3 (5a), P(C6H4OMe- p)3 (5b), PiPr3 (5d) or L2 = dppf (5c)] were obtained by treating 1 with [Cu(NCMe)4]PF6, the corresponding phosphane, and piperidine in a 1:2:2:1 molar ratio. The reaction of 1 with Cu(ClO4)2·6H2O and (Pr4N)OH in a 2:1:2 molar ratio gives the CuII complex (Pr4N)2[Cu{S2C=(tBu-fy)}2] [(Pr4N)26], which readily oxidizes to the CuIII complex Pr4N[Cu{S2C=(tBu-fy)}2] (Pr4N7) in the presence of atmospheric oxygen and moisture. The salt PPN7 [PPN+ =(Ph3P)2N+] was obtained from 1, CuCl2·2H2O, PPNCl, and piperidine in a 2:1:1:2 molar ratio under aerobic conditions. The crystal structures of 3a, 3c·CH2Cl2, 4a·4Me2CO, and 4c·CH2Cl2 have been determined by X-ray diffraction studies. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006) [source]


From Single-Molecule Precursors to Coupled Ag2S/TiO2 Nanocomposites

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 28 2008
Márcia C. Neves
Abstract A single-source approach using mild temperatures was applied to prepare morphological well-defined and coupled TiO2/metal,sulfide nanocomposites. Metal N -alkyldithiocarbamates were used as the precursors to the metal,sulfide nanophases and, in particular, Ag2S nanostructures were investigated in more detail. These were observed as nano-islands at the surface of TiO2 (anatase) particles, which were used as substrates. To explain the formation of these nanocomposite particulates, a tentative mechanism has been proposed which involves the controlled release of sulfide ions from an intermediate coordination compound. Because the growth of the metal sulfide can be controlled at the surface of a photoactive substrate, we anticipate the potential of this synthetic method to chemical design reasonable amounts of semiconductor-sensitized TiO2, such as Ag2S/TiO2 nanocomposites.

Recovery of cadmium from a zinc hydrometallurgical leachate using reactive emulsion liquid membrane technology

JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY & BIOTECHNOLOGY, Issue 4 2004
Jianzhang Fang
Abstract A new emulsion liquid membrane process using 3,5-diisopropylsalicylic acid (DIPSA) and triisobutylphosphine sulfide (TIBPS) as carriers, and ammonium sulfide (NH4)2S as precipitant is described. The reactive nature of sulfide ions with extracted cadmium ions in the internal aqueous phase significantly increases cadmium recovery and minimizes zinc impurities. The new process is applied to the enrichment of a low concentration of cadmium ions from a solution containing a high concentration of zinc ions. Under optimum operating conditions, a single stage process produced a cadmium recovery of 98% at a cadmium sulfide content of 99.6%. The results are encouraging for potential applications in zinc hydrometallurgy for recovery of cadmium from sulfuric acid leaching solution of zinc ores.

Precipitation dynamics of zinc sulfide multiscale agglomerates

AICHE JOURNAL, Issue 10 2009
Gruy Frédéric
Abstract Homogeneous precipitation of zinc sulfide from thioacetamide decomposition in presence of zinc sulfate in acid solution results in the formation of four-scale agglomerates. We present here experimental results relative to the monitoring of several physicochemical (pH, electrical conductivity, concentration in sulfide ions, turbidity) and morphological (agglomerate shape and size) parameters throughout the precipitation process. From these parameters essential characteristics of the precipitation process can be determined, especially the supersaturation level and the precipitated product mass. From this information and with the help of microphotographs of samples withdrawn at different stages of the precipitation, it is possible to formulate a new mechanism of zinc sulfide precipitation. In particular, the nature of the different agglomeration scales is elucidated as well their succession in time. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2009 [source]


Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy study of surface films formed on copper in aqueous environments

MATERIALS AND CORROSION/WERKSTOFFE UND KORROSION, Issue 9 2005
A. Srivastava
Abstract The electrochemical behavior of pure copper has been studied in aqueous environments using linear polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques as a function of immersion time. The effect of pollutants (like chloride, sulfide and ammonium ions) on the nature of films formed on the copper surface has been studied. All the surfaces revealed the presence of a porous oxide layer. The corrosion resistance decreased with increasing amount of chloride ions. The addition of Na2S in the environments in the absence of any chloride species was beneficial for corrosion resistance. EIS data suggested that the capacitance of the films formed in chloride environments was higher. The surfaces obtained in presence of chloride ions were relatively rough and deeply attacked. The total impedance decreased after 432 h of immersion in solutions possessing chloride ions. The damaging role of chloride ions and the relatively less severe effect of sulfide ions were noted.
