Abstract
This Review presents an overview from the perspective of tetrahedral chemistry on various oxide ion-conducting materials containing tetrahedral moieties which have received continuous growing attention as candidates for key components of various devices, including solid oxide fuel cells and oxygen sensors, due to the deformation and rotation flexibility of tetrahedral units facilitating oxide ion transport. Emphasis is placed on the structural and mechanistic features of various systems ranging from crystalline to amorphous materials, which include a variety of gallates, silicates, germanates, molybdates, tungstates, vanadates, aluminates, niobate, titanates, indium oxides, and the newly reported borates. They contain tetrahedral units in either isolated or linked manners forming different polyhedral dimensionality (0 to 3) with various defect properties and transport mechanisms. The development of oxide ion conductors containing tetrahedral moieties and the elucidation of the roles of tetrahedral units in oxide ion migration have demonstrated diverse opportunities for discovering superior electrolytes for solid oxide fuel cells and other related devices and provided useful clues for uncovering the key factors directing fast oxide ion conduction.

Abstract
Mixed electronic and oxide ionic conduction was enabled in digermanate-type La2-xCaxGe2O7-x/2 containing Ge3O10 chains and isolated GeO4 units by substitution of La3+ with Ca2+. The structure and solid solution limit of Ca doped La2Ge2O7 were studied by systematic experiments, including rotation electron diffraction (RED), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and neutron powder diffraction (NPD) experiments, etc. The preferred occupation of Ca2+ and oxygen vacancies was investigated by Rietveld analysis of the NPD data. The obtained conducting material La1.925Ca0.075Ge2O6.963 exhibits superior thermal stability and an order of magnitude improvement in conductivity compared to the parent La2Ge2O7 (∼9 × 10-5 S cm-1 at 1000 °C). BVEL calculations reveal that the oxygen vacancies were stabilized and transported within the framework of La2Ge2O7 by sharing oxygen and oxygen exchange between the adjacent Ge3O10 chains and GeO4 units, exhibiting a three-dimensional oxide ion transport nature.

Abstract
Lanmodulin (LanM) is the first identified macrochelator that has naturally evolved to sequester ions of rare earth elements (REEs) such as Y and all lanthanides, reversibly. This natural protein showed a 106 times better affinity for lanthanide cations than for Ca, which is a naturally abundant and biologically relevant element. Recent experiments have shown that its metal ion binding activity can be further extended to some actinides, like Np, Pu, and Am. For this reason, it was thought that LanM could be adopted for the separation of REE ions and actinides, thus increasing the interest in its potential use for industry-oriented applications. In this work, a systematic study of the affinity of LanM for lanthanides and actinides has been carried out, taking into account all trivalent ions belonging to the 4f (from La to Lu) and 5f (from Ac to Lr) series, starting from their chemistry in solution. On the basis of a recently published nuclear magnetic resonance structure, a model of the LanM-binding site was built and a detailed structural and electronic description of initial aquo- and LanM-metal ion complexes was provided. The obtained binding energies are in agreement with the available experimental data. A possible reason that could explain the origin of the affinity of LanM for these metal ions is also discussed.

Abstract
Oxide-ion conductors, also known as "oxygen ion conductors," have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their extensive applications in a variety of electrochemical devices, including oxygen concentrators, solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), and solid oxide electrolysis cells. The key to improving the performance of these devices is the creation of novel oxide-ion conductors. In this feature article, we discuss the recent developments of new structural families of oxide-ion conductors and of the Dion-Jacobson-type layered oxide-ion conductors with a particular emphasis on CsM2Ti2NbO10-δ (M = Bi and lanthanoids; δ represents oxygen-vacancy content) and their solid solutions. CsBi2Ti2NbO10-δ is the first example of an oxide-ion conductor with a Dion-Jacobson-type layered perovskite structure, and the structural characteristics of these materials are extracted here. We have proposed an original concept that the large sized Cs+ cations and M3+ displacements yield the large bottlenecks for oxide-ion migration, which would facilitate the discovery of novel oxide-ion conductors. This article presents evidence that Dion-Jacobson-type layered perovskites are superior oxide-ion conductors. We also demonstrate how the information gleaned from these studies can be applied to the design of novel oxide-ion conductors.

History of Cobaltabis(dicarbollide) in Potentiometry, No Need for Ionophores to Get an Excellent Selectivity. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27238312. [PMID: 36500404 PMCID: PMC9741054 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27238312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 11/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
This work is a mini-review highlighting the relevance of the θ metallabis(dicarbollide) [3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]- with its peculiar and differentiating characteristics, among them the capacity to generate hydrogen and dihydrogen bonds, to generate micelles and vesicles, to be able to be dissolved in water or benzene, to have a wide range of redox reversible couples and many more, and to use these properties, in this case, for producing potentiometric membrane sensors to monitor amine-containing drugs or other nitrogen-containing molecules. Sensors have been produced with this monoanionic cluster [3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]-. Other monoanionic boron clusters are also discussed, but they are much fewer. It is noteworthy that most of the electrochemical sensor species incorporate an ammonium cation and that this cation is the species to be detected. Alternatively, the detection of the borate anion itself has also been studied, but with significantly fewer examples. The functions of the borate anion in the membrane are different, even as a doping agent for polypyrrole which was the conductive ground on which the PVC membrane was deposited. Apart from these cases related to closo borates, the bulk of the work has been devoted to sensors in which the θ metallabis (dicarbollide) [3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]- is the key element. The metallabis (dicarbollide) anion, [3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]-, has many applications; one of these is as new material used to prepare an ion-pair complex with bioactive protonable nitrogen containing compounds, [YH]x[3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]y as an active part of PVC membrane potentiometric sensors. The developed electrodes have Nernstian responses for target analytes, i.e., antibiotics, amino acids, neurotransmitters, analgesics, for some decades of concentrations, with a short response time, around 5 s, a good stability of membrane over 45 days, and an optimal selectivity, even for optical isomers, to be used also for real sample analysis and environmental, clinical, pharmaceutical and food analysis.

Abstract
Materials capable for use in energy generation have been actively investigated recently. Thermoelectrics, photovoltaics and electronic/ionic conductors are considered as a part of the modern energy system. Layered perovskites have many attractions, as materials with high conductivity. Gadolinium-doped layered perovskite BaLaInO4 was obtained and investigated for the first time. The high values of conductivity were proved. The composition BaLa0.9Gd0.1InO4 demonstrates predominantly protonic transport under wet air and low temperatures (<400 °C). The doping by rare earth metals of layered perovskite is a prospective method for significantly improving conductivity.

Abstract
Significant oxide-ionic conductivity has been recently reported for a family of cation-deficient hexagonal perovskite derivatives Ba3M2O8.5 (M = Mo/W6+ and Nb5+/V5+). Herein, strong 4-fold coordination geometry preferring Ge4+ ions are doped into Ba3Mo1+xNb1-2xGexO8.5 to manipulate the oxygen distribution within palmierite-like layers for the enhancement of oxide-ionic conductivity. Rietveld refinement of the neutron diffraction data of Ba3Mo1.2Nb0.6Ge0.2O8.5 reveals that Ge4+-ions are selectively incorporated into the palmierite-like layers, owing to their strong 4-fold coordination environment preference. Such a site-selective doping behavior leads to an increase in the occupation proportion of the O3 site and a concomitant decrease in the occupancy factor for O2. Ionic conduction measurements show that the bulk conductivity of Ba3Mo1.2Nb0.6Ge0.2O8.5 is about twice higher than that of the parent compound at intermediate temperatures (300-500 °C). Furthermore, bond-valence site energy (BVSE) landscape analysis reveals that the oxygen ionic conduction of Ba3Mo1+xNb1-2xGexO8.5 is dominated by the two-dimensional pathways along the palmierite-like layers, despite the three-dimensional (3D) oxygen diffusion pathways being present in the hybrid structure, which strongly confirms that the enhancement in ionic conductivity at intermediate temperatures is attributed to the site-selective Ge4+-substitution-induced redistribution of oxygen ions within the palmierite-like layers.
