Abstract:
Three new inorganic-organic hybrid compounds, (H3DIBA)2·SiMo12O40·H2O (1), (H3DIBA)2·SiW12O40·H2O (2), and [(H2DIBA)(H3DIBA)]·PMo12O40·2H2O (3) (HDIBA = 3,5-di(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzoic acid) were synthesized by the hydrothermal method. The structures were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. These three compounds are all 3D supramolecular structures formed by Keggin-type polyoxometalate anions and HDIBA through intermolecular weak interactions, which have been studied via Hirshfeld surface analysis. The electrochemistry properties of 1 and 3 have been studied, including cyclic voltammetric behaviors and electrocatalytic properties. The study on the removal of organic dye pollutants in water showed that compounds 1 and 3 had an adsorption effect on cationic dye RhB, and the adsorption process conforms to the Langmuir isotherm model. Compound 2 can photocatalytically degrade cationic organic dyes RhB, MB, and CV, and the photocatalytic mechanism study indicates that h+ plays a major role in the photocatalytic process.

Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...

Structure of Benzene: Kekulé Model
He proposed that benzene has a cyclic structure of six carbon atoms attached to one hydrogen atom each, with three alternating pi bonds.
Aldehydes and Ketones with Amines: Imine Formation Mechanism
Imines are formed under mildly acidic conditions. A pH of 4.5 is ideal for the reaction.
If the pH is low or the solution is too acidic, the reaction slows down in the...
Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the...
