The photochemical stability of encapsulated films of mixed halide perovskites with a range of MAPb(I1-x Brx )3 (MA=methylammonium) compositions (solid solutions) was investigated under accelerated stressing using concentrated sunlight. The relevance of accelerated testing to standard operational conditions of solar cells was confirmed by comparison to degradation experiments under outdoor sunli...

The activation by a catalyst of phase-transfer type Aliquat-336 improves the reactivity in N, N-dimethylformamide-water mixture. The...

In the performance of routine determinations of serum chloride by the automated method, which depends on halide displacement of mercury from the thiocyanate to allow formation of ferric thiocyanate complex, 4 cases of bromide poisoning were detected. Experimental evidence shows the halide substitution to be an equilibrium, with higher formation constants for the heavier halide ions. As a result...

Lead-free organic-inorganic tin halide perovskites were prepared and investigated by a rapid screening technique utilizing a modified scanning electrochemical microscope (SECM). We studied liquid junction photoelectrochemical (PEC) solar cells based on p-type methylammonium tin halide (MASnI3-xBrx) perovskites employing the benzoquinone (BQ) redox couple, BQ/BQ , in dichloromethane (CH2Cl2). We...

The chain carrier index (CCI), defined as the ratio of the bond dissociation free energies (BDFE) of corresponding chain carrier halides and hydrides, is proposed as a measure of the thermodynamic efficiency of chain carriers for radical dehalogenation. The larger this value is relative to the corresponding value of the organic substrate, the more thermodynamically efficient the process. The ch...

The mechanism of the previously developed cross-coupling reaction of aryl Grignard reagents with aryl halides was explored in more detail. Single electron transfer from an aryl Grignard reagent to an aryl halide initiates a radical chain by giving an anion radical of the aryl halide. The following propagation cycle consists entirely of anion radical intermediates.

The magnetic propertie~ of a series of ternary tetrathiafulvalenium (TTF + ) salts incorporating, wiIhin a unique antiperovskite structure, a discrete halide (Y Cl-, Bror I-j in addition to an octahedral molybdenum halide cluster dianion Mo6X(I (with X = Cl or Br), are described, The preparation and structural chemistry of the materials of general formula

Novel organocobalt complexes featuring weak C-CoL2 bonds (L = acetylacetonate) are prepared and used as sources of halomethyl radicals. They permit the precision synthesis of α-halide functionalized and telechelic polymers in organic media or in water. Substitution of halide by azide allows derivatization of polymers using the CuAAC click reaction.

[reaction: see text] A one-pot protocol for converting 1,3- and 1,4-substituted aryl halides to arylamine boronate esters is described. This is achieved by sequential Ir-catalyzed aromatic borylation at the least hindered C-H bond of the aryl halide and subsequent Pd-catalyzed C-N coupling at the halide position of the crude arylboronic ester.

A self-assembled poly(amide-triazole) physical gel (1) was found to show responsive behaviour towards halide anions, while the corresponding monomeric (2) and dimeric homologues (3) were non-gelating. In the presence of halide anions, polymer gel 1 collapsed to become a solution, but could be restored back to the gel state after addition of a AgNO3 salt.
