The question is addressed if dust is kinetically important in the nucleation and growth of Ir(0) nanoparticles formed from [Bu4N](5)Na-3(1,5-COD)(IrP2W15Nb3O62)-P-I center dot (hereafter [(COD)Ir center dot POM](8-)), reduced by H-2 in propylene carbonate solvent. Following a concise review of the (often neglected) literature addressing dust in nucleation phenomena dating back to the late 1800s, the nucleation and growth kinetics of the [(COD)Ir center dot POK8- precatalyst system are examined for the effects of 0.2 mu m microfiltration of the solvent and precatalyst solution, of rinsing the glassware with that microfiltered solvent, of silanizing the glass reaction vessel, for the addition of <0.2 mu m gamma-Al2O3 (inorganic) dust, for the addition of flame-made carbon-based (organic) dust, and as a function of the starting, microfiltered [(COD)Ir center dot POM8-] concentration. Efforts to detect dust and its removal by dynamic light scattering and by optical microscopy are also reported. The results yield a list of eight important conclusions, the four most noteworthy of which-are (i) that the nucleation apparent rate "constant" k(lobs(brnol)) is shown to be slowed by a factor of similar to 5 to similar to 7.6, depending on the precise experiment and its conditions, just by the filtration of the precatalyst solution using a 0.20 mu m filter and rinsing the glassware surface with 0.20 pm filtered propylene carbonate solvent; (ii) that simply employing a 0.20 tan filtration step narrows the size distribution of the resulting Ir(0) nanoparticles by a factor of 2.4 from 19 to 8%, a remarkable result; (iii) that the narrower size distribution can be oboimoo, accounted for by the slowed nucleation rate constant, kl and by the unchanged autocatalytic growth rate constant, that is, by the increased ratio of k(2obs(bimol))/k(lob(biomal)) that further separates nucleation from growth in time for filtered vs unfiltered solutions; and (iv) that five lines of evidence indicate that the filterable component of the solution, which has nucleation rate-enhancing and size-dispersion broadening effects, is dust.

Design Parameters and Principles of Liquid-Crystal-Templated Synthesis of Polymeric Materials via Photolithography
AKDENİZ, BURAK; Büküşoğlu, Emre (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2019-10-08)
The design parameters and principles for the synthesis of polymeric microscopic objects using a method that combines photolithography and liquid crystal (LC) molecular templates have been demonstrated. Specifically, mixtures of a reactive mesogen (RM257) and nonreactive LC (E7) were polymerized using UV light and a photomask. We used photomasks with circular, triangular, rectangular, square, star-shaped, and heart-shaped features to provide initial shapes to the objects. Then, the unreacted parts were extra...
Conducting polymers of decanedioic acid bis-(4-pyrrol-1-yl-phenyl) ester
Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-15)
A dipyrrolyl monomer was synthesized via the reaction between 4-pyrrol-1-yl phenol and decanedioyl dichloride. The electrochemical behavior of this monomer was studied. Polymerization of decanedioic acid bis-(4-pyrrol-1-yi-phenyl) ester (DAPE) was achieved by chemical and constant current electrolyses methods. Copolymerization of DAPE with thiophene was performed by constant potential electrolysis in acetonitrile-tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBAFB), dichloromethane-TBAFB, solvent-electrolyte couple...
In Situ Formed "Weakly Ligated/Labile Ligand" Iridium(0) Nanoparticles and Aggregates as Catalysts for the Complete Hydrogenation of Neat Benzene at Room Temperature and Mild Pressures
Bayram, Ercan; Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Özkar, Saim; Finke, Richard G. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2010-07-20)
"Weakly ligated/labile ligand" nanoparticles, that is nanoparticles where only weakly coordinated ligands plus the desired catalytic reactants are present, are of fundamental interest. Described herein is a catalyst system for benzene hydrogenation to cyclohexane consisting of "weakly ligated/labile ligand" Ir(0) nanoparticles and aggregates plus dry-HCl formed formed in situ from commercially available [(1,5-COD)IrCl](2) plus 40 +/- 1 psig (similar to 2.7 atm) H(2) at 22 +/- 0.1 degrees C. Multiple control...
Amphoteric surface hydrogels derived from hydrogen-bonded multilayers: Reversible loading of dyes and macromolecules
Kharlampieva, Eugenia; Erel Göktepe, İrem; Sukhishvili, Svetlana A. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2007-01-02)
We used hydrogen-bonded multilayers of poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVPON) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) as precursors for producing surface-bound hydrogels and studied their pH-dependent swelling and protein uptake behavior using in situ attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and in situ ellipsometry. The hydrogels were produced by selective chemical cross-linking between PMAA units using carbodiimide chemistry and ethylenediamine (EDA) as a cross-linking reagent, followed by ...
Conducting polymers of octanoic acid 2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl ester and their electrochromic properties
CAMURLU, P; Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2005-08-15)
Octanoic acid 2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl ester was synthesized via the reaction of 3-thiophene ethanol with octanoyl chloride. The resulting monomer was electrochemically homopolymerized in the presence of tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate as the supporting electrolyte, in the acetonitrile/borontrifluoride ethyl ether solvent system. The resulting polymer was characterized using various experimental techniques. Spectroelectrochemistry analysis of the homopolymer reflects electronic transitions at 434, approxi...
