Journal ArticleDOI
Structure, stereochemistry and novel Hydrogen bonding in two bipyridinium salts of the B10H102− anion
TL;DR: In this article, the structure determinations of (LH)2(B10H10), (1), and (L H2)(B 10H10, (2), L = 2,2'- bipyridine, have been carried out by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K, being refined by full-matrix least squares to residuals of 0.041, 0.047 for 1758, 1771 'observed' independent reflections respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of carbido and related derivatives from calcium carbide and ruthenium carbonyl clusters
TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction between a carbide anion (C22−) source and ruthenium cluster carbonyls is reported for the first time, and the X-ray structure of 1 as its 2CH2C12 solvate is described, together with those of the minor products Ru4(μ4-HC2H)2(μ-CO)2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Syntheses, structural studies and solution properties of iron complexes of some amide-substituted calixarenes
TL;DR: In this article, a single crystal structure determination has been carried out on [Fe(II − H)](FeCl4)2; the iron in the complex cation is bound to all seven O atoms of the calixarene with the shortest Fe-O distance to the phenolate O atom.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Mesityldiphenylphosphine, Dimesitylphenylphosphine and Trimesitylphosphine
John F. Blount,David Brian Camp,Robert D. Hart,Peter Conrad Healy,Brian W. Skelton,Allan H. White +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis and structural characterization of the tertiary phosphines mesityldiphenylphosphine [PPh2( mes )], dimesitylphenylphophosphine[PPh ( mes )2] and a new phase of trimesity lphosphines [P( mes)3] have been carried out.
Journal ArticleDOI
A “plug-and-play” approach to the preparation of transparent luminescent hybrid materials based on poly(methyl methacrylate), a calix[4]arene cross-linking agent, and terbium ions
Christopher R. Driscoll,Brodie L. Reid,Matthew J. McIldowie,Sara Muzzioli,Gareth L. Nealon,Brian W. Skelton,Stefano Stagni,David Brown,Massimiliano Massi,Mark I. Ogden +9 more
TL;DR: A novel methodology to prepare transparent luminescent hybrid materials using a calixarene ionophore as a PMMA cross-linker avoids problems, such as phase segregation, and produces a polymer monolith that can be loaded with the metal ion required for luminescence post-synthesis.
