Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are a class of versatile solvents with promise for a wide range of applications, from separation processes to electrochemical energy storage technologies. A fundamental understanding of the correlation among the structure, thermodynamics, and dynamics of these materials necessary for targeted rational design for specific applications is still nascent. Here, we employ differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS), and femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy (fs-TAS) to investigate the correlation among thermodynamics, dynamics, and charge transport in mixtures comprising a wide range of compositions of choline chloride (ChCl) and ethylene glycol (EG). Detailed analyses reveal that (i) the eutectic composition of this prototypical DES occurs in the 15-20 mol % ChCl in the EG range rather than the previously assumed 33 mol %, and (ii) both rotational dynamics and charge transport at the eutectic composition are enhanced in this composition range. These findings highlight the fundamental interplay between thermodynamics and dynamics in determining the properties of DESs that are relevant to many applications.

Critical Influence of Water on the Polymorphism of 1,3-Dimethylurea and Other Heterogeneous Equilibria. Molecules 2023; 28:7061. [PMID: 37894540 PMCID: PMC10609064 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28207061] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2023] [Revised: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
It is shown that the presence of hundreds of ppm of water in 1,3-dimethylurea (DMU) powder led to the large depression of the transition temperature between the two enantiotropically related polymorphic forms of DMU (Form II → Form I) from 58 °C to 25 °C, thus explaining the reported discrepancies on this temperature of transition. Importantly, this case study shows that thermodynamics (through the construction of the DMU-water temperature-composition phase diagram) rather than kinetics is responsible for this significant temperature drop. Furthermore, this work also highlights the existence of a monohydrate of DMU that has never been reported before with a non-congruent fusion at 8 °C. Interestingly, its crystal structure, determined from X-ray powder diffraction data at sub-ambient temperature, consists of a DMU-water hydrogen bonded network totally excluding homo-molecular hydrogen bonds (whereas present in forms I and II of DMU).

Abstract
Two polytypes of the new oxyvanadate matrix La7O6(VO4)3 were identified and deeply characterized. The crystal structure of the α-polytype was solved using a combination of precession electron diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. It crystallizes in a monoclinic unit cell with space group P21, a = 13.0148(3) Å, b = 19.1566(5) Å, c = 7.0764(17) Å, and β = 99.87(1)°. Its structure is built upon [La7O6]9+ polycationic units at the origin of a porous 3D network, evidencing rectangular channels filled by isolated VO4 tetrahedra. An in situ high-temperature XRD study highlights a number of complex phase transitions assorted with the existence of a β-polytype also refined in a monoclinic unit cell, space group P21/n, a = 13.0713(4) Å, b = 18.1835(6) Å, c = 7.1382(2) Å, and β = 97.31(1)°. Thus, during the transitions, while the polycationic networks are almost identical, the vanadate's geometry is largely modified. The use of Eu3+ and Sm3+ at different concentrations in the host lattice is possible using solid-state techniques. The photoluminescence (PL), PL excitation (PLE) spectra, and luminescence decay times were recorded and discussed. The phosphors present an emission light, being bright and reddish orange after excitation under UV. This is mainly due to the V-O band and f-f transitions. Whatever the studied polytype, the final luminescence properties are retained during the heating/cooling process.

Abstract
The binary diagram for pyrimidine:water mixtures has been determined by differential scanning calorimetry, in situ single-crystal, and powder X-ray diffraction experiments. The eutectic point has been located near the 1:4 n/n ratio at 234.5 K. The eutectic and nearly eutectic mixtures easily vitrify, and the vitrification could be kinetically induced for 1:3 n/n mixtures, too. Depending on the cooling rate, the 1:4 mixture freezes in the glass state, as a conglomerate of the glass and crystalline phases, or as the eutectic mixture of pyrimidine phase I and hexagonal ice Ih. When heated above 160 K, the glass phase transforms to a novel crystalline phase, tentatively identified as a pyrimidine hydrate, which in turn at ca. 200-210 K transforms into a eutectic mixture of pyrimidine phase I and hexagonal ice Ih. The pyrimidine-water binary diagram and novel crystalline and amorphous phases are relevant to the thermodynamic behavior of hydrophilic pyrimidine and its natural and synthetic derivatives in humid environments. The presently determined binary diagram can be straightforwardly applied for assessing the contents of water in highly hygroscopic pyrimidine samples.
