From solutions of copper iodide and dodecyldimethylsulphonium iodide in acetonitrile, single crystals of [Cu4I4(DodecylMeS)4] (1) and [Cu3I4(DodecylMeS)3](DodecylMe2S) (2) could be obtained. Both compounds crystallize in the triclinic crystal system, space group P1¯ (1: a = 957.23(1), b = 967.25(2), c = 3818.38(6) pm, α = 90.3837(6)°, β = 86.4687(7)°, γ = 75.0996(7)°, 2: a = 874.23(1), b = 979.29(1), c = 4388.75(4) pm, α = 90.4472(3)°, ß = 94.7088(3)°, γ = 116.1162(3)°). 1 consists of tetrahedral Cu4 clusters, which are capped by four iodide ions over the tetrahedral faces. 2 contains trigonal Cu3 clusters, which are coordinated by four iodide ions, one centered over the plane, three bridging over the edges of the Cu3 triangle. In both compounds, the S atoms of (DodecylMeS) ligands coordinate to the Cu atoms. In 2, a (DodecylMe2S) cation is also present.
The influence of syntheses parameters of zeolite ZSM-5 on the lean NO x reduction activity and hydrothermal stability of Cu-ZSM-5 has been investigated. The hydrothermal stability of Cu-ZSM-5 was found to depend on the aluminium source used and on the presence of Ca(OH) 2 in the synthesis mixture for ZSM-5.
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.
