Abstract:
A dual rate-modulation approach was implemented for the first time to create crystalline covalent triazine frameworks. Based on a new polycondensation approach, regulating the condensation rate via the exploitation of a modulated aldehyde monomer and addition of an extrinsic inhibitor affords inherent control over the polymer growth and therefore provides tunable crystallinities and porosities for the resulting triazine frameworks. The existence of rich redox-active triazine linkages gives rise to obtaining exceptional sodium storage, where 239 mAh g-1 at 1.0 A g-1 is obtained after 200 cycles. We anticipate this new protocol based on the dynamic imine metathesis will facilitate new possibilities for the construction of crystalline covalent triazine frameworks and promote their energy-related applications.

02:46Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...

The nitrous acid is unstable. Hence, it is formed in situ from a solution of sodium nitrite and cold aqueous acids such as hydrochloric or sulfuric acid. In an acidic solution, the –OH group of nitrous acid undergoes protonation to give oxonium ion, followed by...

Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...

02:58Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...
