1A. Pictures of single crystals that were measured crystallographically:Compound 2: [Fe 3 ((µ 3 -O)(µ 2 -CH 3 COO) 6 (C 5 H 5 NO) 2 (H 2 O)] ClO 4 • 3H 2 O (C 5 H 5 NO) 2 (CH 3 OH)] ClO 4 • 3H 2 O Regenerated 1: [Fe 3 (µ 3 -O)(µ 2 -CH 3 COO) 6 (C 5 H 5 NO) 2 (H 2 O)] ClO 4 • 3H 2 OFigure S1. Photographs of the single crystals of compounds 1, 2 and Regenerated 1 S1 1B. Single crystal data collection: Crystal data for compounds 1, 2 and regenerated 1 were measured on a Bruker SMART APEX CCD area detector system [λ(Mo-Kα) = 0.71073 Å] at liquid nitrogen temperature, graphite monochromator with an ω scan width of 0.3 o , crystal-detector distance 60 mm, collimator 0.5 mm. Data reduction by SAINTPLUS (Software for the CCD Detector System, Bruker Analytical X-Ray Systems Inc., Madison, WI, 1998), an empirical absorption correction using equivalent reflections was performed with the program SADABS ( Sheldrick, G.
When an aqueous solution of sodium molybdate is added to an aqueous solution of ferric chloride, acidified with acetic acid, a giant {MoFe} cluster is instantaneously formed as the amorphous substance Na[MoFeO(CHCOO)(OH)(HO)]·180 HO (1). Compound 1 consists of aggregated nanovesicles of {MoFe} clusters, as confirmed by field-emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy images of 1. An aqueous suspension of 1 upon moderate heating results in the formation of crystalline nanoferric molybdate, which gives insight into understanding the formation of a yellow coating mineral, ferrimolybdite, frequently found on the ores of molybdenum.
The colourless crystals of (PPh ) [PW O ]⋅3 C H NO (1) are converted to the dark blue crystals of {(PPh ) [PW O ]⋅3C H NO} {(PPh ) (C H NO) [PW W O ] ⋅2C H NO)} (2) upon irradiation with visible light in an interesting single crystal to single crystal transformation. This photochromic conversion is accompanied by the reduction of concerned Keggin anion from {PW } to {PW W }. This redox conversion is characterized by various spectroscopic techniques including single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The photochromic properties of compound 1 can be controlled reversibly through the dimethylformamide (DMF) molecule as a function of temperature and proton exposure in a gas-solid reaction. The present work can be described as a new concept of programmable photochromism with the formation of photochromic pockets in crystalline 1 host (solid state), wherein a solvent can be plugged at a time to show light induced coloration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
