Reactions in water between lanthanide chlorides and the di-sodium salt of 2-hydroxyterephthalic acid (H2hbdc) lead to six families lanthanide-based coordination polymers depending on ion crystal growth method.

The title compound classes, (carbamoyl)sulfenyl chlorides and ((carbamoyl)dithio)carbonyl chlorides, have been implicated previously as unstable, albeit trappable, intermediates in organosulfur chemistry. The present work reports for each of these functional groups: (i) several routes to prepare it in the N-methylaniline family; (ii) its direct structural characterization by several spectroscop...

Chlorides of NH₄Cl and SrCl₂ and fluorides of AlF₃ and SrF₂ were added to raw materials acting as the flux for preparing the SrSi₂O₂N₂:Eu2+ phosphor. The effects of the fluxes on the phase formation, particle morphology, particle size, and photoluminescence properties were investigated. The results revealed that particle size, particle morphology and photoluminescence intensity were largely dom...

3-Sulfanyloxindoles were synthesised by triphenylphosphine-mediated transition-metal-free thiolation of oxindoles using sulfonyl chlorides as sulfenylation reagents. The above reaction was promoted by iodide anions, which was ascribed to the in situ conversion of sulfenyl chlorides into the more reactive sulfenyl iodides. Moreover, the thiolation of 3-aryloxindoles was facilitated by bases. The...
