01 2A规则 Search for metal hydrides with short hydrogen–hydrogen separation: Ab initio calculations
Numerous studies have been carried out to explain observed stabilities, stoichiometries, and preferred hydrogen sites in various kinds of hydrides.6,7 It has been suggested that limiting factors in terms of minimum hole sizes0.40 Åd and HuH distance s2.1 Åd in stable hydrides should be prime selection criteria for guidance about hydrogen absorption capacity.7–10 Hence, reduction in HuH separation may be one means to enhance the hydrogen content at minimum matrix volume and mass. From experimental and theoretical
studies it has been established that the separation between
hydrogen atoms in interstitial matrix sites is ruled by repulsive
H-to-H interactions, which in practice is assumed to
prevent the hydrogen atoms to approach one another closer
than 2.1 Å (Switendick’s criterion).7,9,10
The interaction between a pair of hydrogen (H) atoms embedded in a metal matrix has been studied by using the self-consistent-field molecular-orbital method.
The total energy of the cluster as a function of H-H separation reveals two minima corresponding to the bond lengths of molecular hydrogen and metal-hydrogen dimer.
It is suggested that the stronger metal-hydrogen bonding may be responsible for the 2.1 Å minimum H-H distance observed by Switendick in stable metal hydrides
0.Summary – Rules of hydrogen bonding
RULE 1: The greater the charges, the stronger the hydrogen bond.
RULE 2: The shorter the distance the stronger the hydrogen bond.
Hydrogen bond length is traditionally measured by the distance between the donor atom and the acceptor atom. By definition we say a hydrogen bond occurs if the distance between the donor and the acceptor atoms is shorter than the sum of the atomic radius of the acceptor atom (~1.5Å), the atomic radius of the hydrogen (1.2Å) and bond length between the donor atom and the hydrogen (~1Å).
So the longest hydrogen bonds are ~3.5 Å. Anything longer would be considered a pure dipole-dipole interaction.
Good hydrogen bonds have a distance of ~2.8 Å and some ultra-short hydrogen bonds have been reported with donor to acceptor distances of 2Å.
RULE 3: Bonding angles matter, the more ideal the bonding angle, the stronger the hydrogen bond. This is an indication that hydrogen bonds have a partial covalent character.
Think about where the lone pairs sit.
The bond is ideal if the donor atom, the hydrogen the lone pair and the acceptor atom all lie on a straight line.
Rule 4: Linear Networks of hydrogen bonds increase the Dipole moment and lead to stronger hydrogen bonds. The dipoles in hydrogen bonds are induced dipoles.
Formation of a hydrogen bond further polarized the bonds
RULE 5: Hydrogen bonds contribute little to overall protein stability, but they align molecular groups in a specific orientation giving proteins a defined structure.
RULE6: Unsatisfied Hydrogen bonds in the protein interior are quite rare.

From IOP2013:First-principles calculations of niobium hydride formation in superconducting radio-frequency cavities
http://iopscience.iop.org/0953-2048/26/9/095002/article
The niobium–hydrogen system has garnered great scientific interest over the past century as a representative system for metal-hydride phenomena in an industrially important material. Niobium is highly resistant to corrosion in both basic and acidic environments, and for this reason it is a material of choice for applications such as medical implants, reactor piping, and jewelry.
Niobium, however, easily absorbs hydrogen if its protective oxide is compromised [1], which can significantly impact its properties. Hydrogen reduces the stability of niobium in corrosive media, either via local charge transfer or via elastic strain [2].
Hydride formation is central to the mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement [3–8], which affects the durability of steam piping and reactor membranes. Bieler et al [9] noted that among the body-centered cubic (bcc) metals, niobium exhibits unusual compliance for the standard crystallographic slip systems, creating a situation where dislocations are more stable when compared with other bcc metals. Hydrogen atoms can effectively pin dislocations and other defects [10], and it is likely that dislocation migration involves dragging a Cottrell atmosphere of hydrogen atoms, along with its elastic strain field, near room temperature [11].
The phases that hydrogen forms with niobium have been studied extensively experimentally. The phase diagram, given in a literature review by Manchester and Pitre [29] and summarized by Ricker and Myneni [1], is displayed in figure 1. Disordered interstitial hydrogen in bcc niobium is denoted α (for H concentrations <24 at.%) and α' (for greater H concentrations). Ordered interstitial hydrogen in face-centered niobium occurs at higher H concentrations and lower temperatures, and consists of the β (orthorhombic, H/Nb ≈ 1), δ (cubic, H/Nb ≈ 2), and ε (orthorhombic, H/Nb ≈ 3/4) phases. The phases, λ and λc, and others, which are indicated by dashed lines, are not well established. It is possible for multiple hydride phases to occur simultaneously [26].
Figure 1. Nb–H phase diagram [29]. The α and α' niobium hydride phases consist of interstitial hydrogen atoms dispersed in body-centered cubic (bcc) niobium at differing low hydrogen concentrations, the β phase consists of face-centered orthorhombic (fco) niobium with ordered hydrogen interstitials and with an ~NbH stoichiometry, the δ phase has the fluorite structure with hydrogen in the tetrahedral sites of face-centered cubic (fcc) niobium and an ~NbH2 stoichiometry, the ε phase is structured like the β phase with the ~Nb4H3 stoichiometry, and λ and λc phases are experimentally unconfirmed niobium hydride phases.

2.Properties of Scandium
Scandium is a chemical element with symbol Sc and atomic number 21.
A silvery-white metallic transition metal, it has historically been sometimes classified as a rare earth element, together with yttrium and the lanthanoids.
It was discovered in 1879 by spectral analysis of the minerals euxenite and gadolinite from Scandinavia.
Scandium is present in most of the deposits of rare earth and uranium compounds, but it is extracted from these ores in only a few mines worldwide.
Because of the low availability and the difficulties in the preparation of metallic scandium, which was first done in 1937, it took until the 1970s before applications for scandium were developed.
The positive effects of scandium on aluminium alloys were discovered in the 1970s, and its use in such alloys remains its only major application. The global trade of the pure metal is around a hundred pounds a year on average.[3]
The properties of scandium compounds are intermediate between those of aluminium and yttrium.
A diagonal relationship exists between the behavior of magnesium and scandium, just as there is between beryllium and aluminium. In the chemical compounds of the elements shown as group 3, above, the predominant oxidation state is +3.
Chemical characteristics of the element[edit]
Scandium is a soft metal with a silvery appearance. It develops a slightly yellowish or pinkish cast when oxidized by air.
It is susceptible to weathering and dissolves slowly in most dilute acids. It does not react with a 1:1 mixture of nitric acid (HNO3) and 48%hydrofluoric acid (HF), possibly due to the formation of an impermeable passive layer. Scandium turnings ignite in air with a brilliant yellow flame to form scandium(III) oxide.[4]
Compounds[edit]
The chemistry is almost completely dominated by the trivalent ion, Sc3+. The radii of M3+ ions in the table below indicate that in terms of chemical properties, scandium ions are more similar to those of yttrium than to those of aluminium. In part for this similarity, scandium is often classified as a lanthanide-like element.
Al | Sc | Y | La | Lu |
53.5 | 74.5 | 90.0 | 103.2 | 86.1 |
Oxides and hydroxides[edit]
The oxide Sc2O3 and the hydroxide Sc(OH)3 are amphoteric:[13]
Sc(OH)3 + 3 OH− → Sc(OH)3−
6Sc(OH)3 + 3 H+ + 3 H2O → [Sc(H2O)6]3+
The α- and γ- forms of scandium oxide hydroxide (ScO(OH)), are isostructural with their aluminium oxide hydroxide counterparts.[14] Solutions of Sc3+ in water are acidic because of hydrolysis.
Halides and pseudohalides[edit]
The halides ScX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) are very soluble in water, but ScF3 is insoluble. In all four halides the scandium is 6-coordinated. The halides are Lewis acids; for example, ScF3 dissolves a solution containing excess fluoride to form [ScF6]3−. The coordination number 6 is typical of Sc(III). In the larger Y3+ and La3+ ions,coordination numbers of 8 and 9 are common. Scandium(III) triflate is sometimes used as a Lewis acid catalyst in organic chemistry.
Organic derivatives[edit]
Scandium forms a series of organometallic compounds with cyclopentadienyl 【环戊二烯基】ligands (Cp), similar to the behavior of the lanthanides. One example is the chlorine-bridged dimer, [ScCp2Cl]2 and related derivatives of pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligands.[15]
Uncommon oxidation states[edit]
Compounds that feature scandium in the oxidation state other than +3 are rare but well characterized.
The blue-black compound CsScCl3is one of the simplest. This material adopts a sheet-like structure that exhibits extensive bonding between the scandium(II) centers.[16]
Scandium hydride is not well understood, although it appears not to be a saline【含盐的,咸的】 hydride of Sc(II).[2]
As is observed for most elements, a diatomic scandium hydride has been observed spectroscopically 【
分光镜地(spectroscopic的变形)】at high temperatures in the gas phase.[1] S
candium borides and carbides are non-stoichiometric, as is typical for neighboring elements.[17]
3. Scandium hydrides from wikipeida
Scandium hydride, also known as scandium–hydrogen alloy, is an alloy made by combining scandium and hydrogen.
Hydrogen acts as a hardening agent, preventing dislocations in the scandium atom crystal lattice from sliding past one another. Varying the amount of hydrogen controls qualities such as the hardness of the resulting scandium hydride. Scandium hydride with increased hydrogen content can be made harder than scandium.
It can be formed by progressive hydrogenation of scandium foil with hydrogen.[1]
In the narrow range of concentrations which make up scandium hydride, mixtures of hydrogen and scandium can form two different structures. At room temperature, the most stable form of scandium is the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) structure α-scandium.[2]It is a fairly soft metallic material that can dissolve a moderate concentration of hydrogen, no more than 0.89 wt% at 22 °C.
If scandium hydride contains more than 0.89% hydrogen at room temperature then it transforms into a face-centred cubic (FCC) structure, the δ-phase. It can dissolve considerably more hydrogen, as much as 4.29%, which reflects the upper hydrogen content of scandium hydride.
Research indicates the existence of a third phase created under extreme conditions termed the η-phase. This phase can dissolve as much as 6.30% hydrogen.
Concentration dependent activation-energies are observed for hydrogen diffusion in scandium metal.[3]
