Solvothermal
oxidation of metallic gallium in monoethanolamine for 72 h at 240
°C yields a crystalline sample of γ-Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> (∼30 nm crystallites). While Rietveld refinement (cubic
spinel structure, <i>Fd</i>3̅<i>m</i>; <i>a</i> = 8.23760(9) Å) reveals that Ga occupies two pairs
of octahedral and tetrahedral sites (ideal spinel and nonspinel),
it provides no information about their local distribution, which cannot
be statistical owing to the short Ga–Ga contacts produced if
neighboring ideal spinel and nonspinel sites are simultaneously occupied.
To create an atomistic model to reconcile this situation, a 6 ×
6 × 6 supercell of the crystal structure is constructed and refined
against neutron total scattering data using a reverse Monte Carlo
(RMC) approach. This accounts well for the local as well as long-range
structure and reveals significant local distortion in the octahedral
sites that resembles the structure of thermodynamically stable β-Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. <sup>71</sup>Ga solid-state NMR results reveal
a octahedral:tetrahedral Ga ratio that is consistent with the model
obtained from RMC. Nanocrystalline samples of γ-Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> are produced by either a short solvothermal reaction
(240 °C for 11 h in diethanolamine; ∼15 nm crystallites)
or by precipitation from an ethanolic solution of gallium nitrate
(∼5 nm crystallites). For these samples, the Bragg scattering
profile is broadened by their smaller crystallite size, consistent
with transmission electron microscopy results, and analysis of the
relative Bragg peak intensities provides evidence that a greater proportion
of tetrahedral versus octahedral sites are filled. In contrast, neutron
total scattering shows the same average Ga–O distance with
decreasing particle size, consistent with <sup>71</sup>Ga solid-state
NMR results that indicate that all samples contain the same overall
proportion of octahedral:tetrahedral Ga. It is postulated that increased
occupation of tetrahedral sites within the smaller crystallites is
balanced by an increased proportion of octahedral surface Ga sites,
owing to termination by bound solvent or hydroxide

The hydrothermal
synthesis of a zeolite with properties suitable
for use in the assembly–disassembly–organization–reassembly
(ADOR) process was designed, and a zeolite called SAZ-1 was successfully
prepared. This zeolite was then used as a parent in the ADOR process,
and two new daughter zeolites, IPC-15 and IPC-16, were prepared. The
X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the new zeolites match well with
those predicted using computational methods. The three materials form
an isoreticular series with decreasing pores size from 14-ring to
12-ring to 10-ring
A Multinuclear Solid-State NMR Study of Templated and Calcined Chabazite-Type GaPO-34
The open-framework gallophosphate GaPO-34 is prepared
with either
1-methylimidazole or pyridine as the structure-directing agent. <sup>13</sup>C and <sup>1</sup>H NMR spectra for these two variants of
the as-made GaPO-34 are fully assigned, confirming the presence of
the protonated amine and water within the pores of both materials. <sup>31</sup>P MAS NMR confirms the presence of three crystallographic
P sites, while <sup>71</sup>Ga MAS and MQMAS NMR spectra reveal three
crystallographic Ga sites: two tetrahedral and one six-coordinate.
Simulations of <sup>69</sup>Ga MAS NMR spectra from these results
are in good agreement with spectra acquired at <i>B</i><sub>0</sub> = 20.0 T, and assignments are supported by first-principles
calculations. <sup>19</sup>F MAS NMR proves the presence of Ga-bridging
fluoride within the as-made materials, leading to the six-coordinate
gallium. Calcination removes the organic species and fluoride, yielding
a microporous chabazite-type GaPO<sub>4</sub>, containing one tetrahedral
Ga site. Exposure to moist air yields calcined, rehydrated GaPO-34
containing four-, five-, and six-coordinate gallium. Upon heating
this material, loss of crystallinity is observed by powder X-ray diffraction
and NMR, with the latter revealing a range of P and Ga environments.
The thermal instability of calcined, rehydrated GaPO-34 contrasts
with the isomorphous aluminophosphate, showing that apparently analogous
materials may have important differences in reactivity
Unusual Intermolecular “Through-Space” <i>J</i> Couplings in P–Se Heterocycles
Solid-state NMR spectra
of new P–Se heterocycles based on <i>peri</i>-substituted
naphthalene motifs show the presence of
unusual <i>J</i> couplings between Se and P. These couplings
are between atoms in adjacent molecules and occur “through
space”, rather than through conventional covalent bonds. Experimental
measurements are supported by relativistic DFT calculations, which
confirm the presence of couplings between nonbonded atoms, and provide
information on the pathway of the interaction. This observation improves
the understanding of <i>J</i> couplings and offers insight
into the factors that affect crystal packing in solids, for future
synthetic exploitation
