Calculation of the Vapour Pressure of Organic Molecules by Means of a Group-Additivity Method and Their Resultant Gibbs Free Energy and Entropy of Vaporization at 298.15 K (open access)

Calculation of the Vapour Pressure of Organic Molecules by Means of a Group-Additivity Method and Their Resultant Gibbs Free Energy and Entropy of Vaporization at 298.15 K

Article presenting the calculation of the vapour pressure of organic molecules at 298.15 K using a commonly applicable computer algorithm based on the group-additivity method. The standard entropy of vaporization ΔS°vap has been determined and compared with experimental data of 1129 molecules, exhibiting excellent conformance with a correlation coefficient R2 of 0.9598, a standard error σ of 8.14 J/mol/K and a medium absolute deviation of 4.68%.

First-principles property assessment of hybrid formate perovskites (open access)

First-principles property assessment of hybrid formate perovskites

Article discusses how hybrid organic–inorganic formate perovskites, AB(HCOO)3, are a large family of compounds that exhibit a variety of phase transitions and diverse properties, such as (anti)ferroelectricity, ferroelasticity, (anti)ferromagnetism, and multiferroism. While many properties of these materials have already been characterized, the authors seek to focus on the comprehensive property assessment of a large number of formate perovskites.

A new synthetic route for the preparation of [Os3(CO)10(μ-OH)(μ-H)] and its reaction with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm): syntheses and X-ray structures of two isomers of [Os3(CO)8(μ-OH)(μ-H)(μ-dppm)] and [Os3(CO)7(μ3-CO)(μ3-O)(μ-dppm)] (open access)

A new synthetic route for the preparation of [Os3(CO)10(μ-OH)(μ-H)] and its reaction with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm): syntheses and X-ray structures of two isomers of [Os3(CO)8(μ-OH)(μ-H)(μ-dppm)] and [Os3(CO)7(μ3-CO)(μ3-O)(μ-dppm)]

Article describes a convenient synthetic method for the preparation of the hydroxy-bridged triosmium cluster [Os₃(CO)₁₀(μ-OH)(μ-H)] along with the re-evaluation of the reaction of this cluster with dppm that has led to the isolation of a new isomer for [Os₃(CO)₈(μ-OH)(μ-H)(μ-dppm)].
