Accessing the plus IV Oxidation State in Molecular Complexes of Praseodymium

Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Ivica Zivkovic

Out of the 14 lanthanide (Ln) ions, molecular complexes of Ln(IV) were known only for cerium and more recently terbium. Here we demonstrate that the +IV oxidation state is also accessible for the large praseodymium (Pr) cation. The oxidation of the tetraki ...

Delivery of a Masked Uranium(II) by an Oxide-Bridged Diuranium(III) Complex

Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani

Oxide is an attractive linker for building polymetallic complexes that provide molecular models for metal oxide activity, but studies of these systems are limited to metals in high oxidation states. Herein, we synthesized and characterized the molecular an ...

Stabilization of the Oxidation State plus IV in Siloxide-Supported Terbium Compounds

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Ivica Zivkovic

The synthesis of lanthanides other than cerium in the oxidation state +IV has remained a desirable but unmet target until recently, when two examples of Tb-IV with saturated coordination spheres were isolated. Here we report the third example of an isolate ...

Electrochemical Stability of the Reconstructed Fe3O4(001) Surface

Klaus Kern

Establishing the atomic-scale structure of metal-oxide surfaces during electrochemical reactions is a key step to modeling this important class of electrocatalysts. Here, we demonstrate that the characteristic (root 2x root 2)R45 degrees surface reconstruc ...

Aerosol pH and liquid water content determine when particulate matter is sensitive to ammonia and nitrate availability

Athanasios Nenes, Spyros Pandis

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) and ammonia (NH3) from anthropogenic and biogenic emissions are central contributors to particulate matter (PM) concentrations worldwide. The response of PM to changes in the emissions of both compounds is typically studied on a case- ...
