The structure of the complexes was speculated as： two rare earth atoms were bridged with four CF3COO–, and rare earth atoms were coordinated with cobalt carbonyl clusters to form a steady structure. Application of the complexes as the catalyst precursors was explored for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. The study showed that the bridging complexes of rare earth and cobalt cluster had large molecular size and were difficult to enter pore path of γ-Al2O3, so they were dispersed on the surface of γ-Al2O3 support. In addition, the performance of Co（Ce）/ γ-Al2O3 was the best among the catalysts with complex as precursor and maintained 77.7% CO conversion at 220 oC for 80 operation hours.展开更多

Using scanning tunneling microscopy experiments and density functional theory simulations, we show that the deposited Co2 cluster dissociates and that the resulting Co atoms dope the NaCI surface by substituting Na ions. In contrast, the larger Co13 cluster does not dissociate and remains stable on top of the NaC1 film. The size- dependent fragmentation of clusters is an important aspect in the understanding of the chemical interaction between size-selected small aggregates of atoms and supporting surfaces.展开更多

It is shown that the cluster skeletons of these two isostructural molecules consist of the edge-localized two-centered two-electron (Co-S) bonds plus a pair of the skeleton electrons delocalized on the whole cluster core,leading an extra stability of the cluster core.The one-electron oxidation for the neutral molecule gives rise to a one-electron σ (Co-Co) bond.which further resonates among the three diagonal lines of the {Co_6} octahedron. The comparison between [Co_6 (μ_3-S)_8(PPh_3)_6] and [Co_6(μ_3-CO)_8(CO)_6]￣(4-) indicates that the latter possesses face-localized bridging-bonds which are further delocalized on the whole surface of the cluster octahedron by the back-donation bonds from the lone electron pairs on the Co atoms to the capping carbonyl CO ligands. The structural features of the series of the [Co6(μ_3-X)_8L_6]￣(n+)(X =S, Se; L=PPh_3,PEt_3, CO;n=0, 1) cluster compounds are briefly rationalized on the basis of the localization description as well.展开更多

The properties of the anchored catalysts, its stability and the ligand effect were also studied. The experimental results show that the optimal conditions for the hydroformylation of hexene-1 are as follows: the temperature is 80℃, reaction time 8 h, pressure 5. 88×105 Pa, and molar ratio of H2/CO 1. 2/1. 0. Functional groups attached to the donor atom(N) possess more or less some influence on the catalytic behavior. Compared with the homogeneous cluster, the polymer-supported bimetallic cluster is more stable. After the catalytic reaction, the structure of the anchored catalysts was not destroyed. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy characterization indicates that there is a weak interaction between the polymer support and the active metals.展开更多

The re...The structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of ConO （n = 2- 10） clusters have been systematically investigated within the framework of the generalized gradient approximation density functional theory. The results indicate that the O atom occupies the surface-capped position on ConO （n = 2-10） clusters. The stabilities of the host clusters are improved by adding one O atom. Maximum peaks of the second-order difference energy of the ground-state ConO clusters are found at n = 3, 6 and 8, indicating higher stability than their neighboring clusters. Compared with corresponding pure Con clusters, the O-doped cobalt clusters have larger gaps between the HOMO and LUMO energy levels, indicating their higher chemical stabilities. In addition, the doping of O atom exhibits different influence on the magnetism of the clusters. This is also further investigated by the local magnetic moment, deformation charge density and partial local density of states analysis.展开更多

文摘Mass-selected anionic cobalt clusters of two different sizes （Co2 and Co13） were deposited onto ultrathin NaC1 films grown on an Au（111） substrate. Using scanning tunneling microscopy experiments and density functional theory simulations, we show that the deposited Co2 cluster dissociates and that the resulting Co atoms dope the NaCI surface by substituting Na ions. In contrast, the larger Co13 cluster does not dissociate and remains stable on top of the NaC1 film. The size- dependent fragmentation of clusters is an important aspect in the understanding of the chemical interaction between size-selected small aggregates of atoms and supporting surfaces.

文摘The structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of ConO （n = 2- 10） clusters have been systematically investigated within the framework of the generalized gradient approximation density functional theory. The results indicate that the O atom occupies the surface-capped position on ConO （n = 2-10） clusters. The stabilities of the host clusters are improved by adding one O atom. Maximum peaks of the second-order difference energy of the ground-state ConO clusters are found at n = 3, 6 and 8, indicating higher stability than their neighboring clusters. Compared with corresponding pure Con clusters, the O-doped cobalt clusters have larger gaps between the HOMO and LUMO energy levels, indicating their higher chemical stabilities. In addition, the doping of O atom exhibits different influence on the magnetism of the clusters. This is also further investigated by the local magnetic moment, deformation charge density and partial local density of states analysis.
