Abstract:
We report on a new iron (iii)-cyamelurate-based coordination polymer. The new material based on a heptazine derivative was prepared in aqueous medium and characterized by a variety of techniques including TGA, FTIR, XRD, HRTEM, and STEM. Due to the high structural stability of the complex in aqueous media, its heterogeneous Fenton-like catalytic activity was evaluated using a model molecule. The results obtained showed a high catalytic activity in both in basic and acid media. The pseudo-first-order rate constants normalized by iron(III) concentrations was approximately 1000 times higher than the result obtained for traditional heterogeneous catalysts based on iron(III) oxyhydroxides. The best observed catalytic activities were attributed to the increase in the binding sites of Fe3+ ions, in parallel with the increased exposure of the catalytic sites, leading to a higher atomic efficiency of the reaction.

In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...
Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
