First Example of a Heptazine-Porphyrin Dyad; Synthesis and Spectroscopic Properties

We have prepared the first example of a porphyrin linked to an heptazine photoactive antenna. The two entities, linked with an alkyl spacer, demonstrate the activity of both active moieties. While they behave electrochemically independantly, on the other hand the spectroscopy shows the existence of energy transfer between both partners.     

One‐Pot Assembly of a New Mixed‐Valent Aggregate Based on Inorganic Polyoxometalate Ligands

Employing a “one‐pot” synthesis strategy, the reaction of Na₂WO₄·2H₂O, Na₂HAsO₄·7H₂O, FeCl₃·6H₂O, various Ln³⁺ ions, and hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) in aqueous solutions with pH values ranging from 5.5 to 6.5 results in the isolation of polytungstoarsenate‐based iron aggregates, ‐K₈Na₁₄[HMTA]₄[(Fe^III₃Fe^II_0.25(OH)₃)(AsO₄)(AsW₉O₃₄)]₄·24H₂O ( 1 ) (HMTA = hexamethylenetetraamine). The polyoxoanion of 1 contains a mixed‐valent {Fe^III₁₂Fe^II(μ₃‐OH)₁₂(μ₄‐AsO₄)₄} cluster surrounded by four [B‐α‐AsW₉O₃₄]^9? units. It is the first polytungstatoarsenate‐based mixed‐valent {Fe^III₁₂Fe^II} aggregate and the largest iron cluster based on [AsW₉O₃₄]^9? ligands. The compound was characterized by elemental analyses, IR, UV/Vis absorption, and diffuse‐reflectance UV/Vis spectroscopy, TG analyses, XRPD, XPS and gel‐filtration chromatography. The electrochemical and electrocatalytical properties were also investigated.

Electrochemistry of porphyrins and related macrocycles

The electrochemistry of metallomacrocycles is known to depend on a variety of factors, some of which are related to the nature of the macrocycle, some to the central metal ion and some to the solution conditions. This present paper presents a brief overview of metalloporphyrin and metallocorrole redox reactivity while outlining the most important structural factors which influence the reversible half-wave potentials for oxidation or reduction of these complexes in non-aqueous media.

Inorganic‐organic Microporous Solid of Wells‐Dawson Type Polyoxometalate: Synthesis,Characterization, and Electrochemical Properties

An inorganic‐organic hybrid solid (H_6/5bppy)₅[P₂W₁₈O₆₂]·4.5H₂O ( 1 ) (bppy = 4‐(5‐(4‐bromophenyl)pyridin‐2‐yl)pyridine) was hydrothermally synthesized by using pre‐constructed Wells‐Dawson type salt α‐K₆P₂W₁₈O₆₂·15H₂O as inorganic moiety. The crystal structure keeps integrated and steady under the interactions together of aryl packing, hydrogen bonding and halogen bonding. X‐ray single crystal structure analysis reveals that compound 1 contains cavities with the sizes of about 6 × 8Å, in which H₂O molecules are captured. The hybrid was used as a solid bulk modifier to fabricate a three‐dimensional bulk‐modified carbon paste electrode ( 1 ‐CPE) by direct mixing. The electrochemical and electrocatalytic behavior of the 1 ‐CPE has been studied in detail. The results exhibit that the redox ability of the Wells‐Dawson polyanions can be maintained in the hybrid solid, which has a good electrocatalytic activity toward the reduction of bromate and hydrogen peroxide. A hydrodynamic voltammetric experiment was performed to characterize the electrode as an amperometric sensor for the determination of hydrogen peroxide. The 1 ‐CPE showed long‐term stability and excellent reproducibility of surface renewal.     

Porphyrins with fluorenyl and fluorenone pendant arms

Porphyrins with fluorenyl and fluorenone groups at the meso-positions have been synthesized and characterized, and the fluorescence of these compounds has been studied. Following selective excitation of the pendant arms with UV light, we show that the energy is transferred to the porphyrin core and reemitted as red light. In comparison to tetraphenylporphyrin, the luminescence properties are markedly improved. The fluorescence quantum yields of tetrafluorenylporphyrin 1 and tetrafluorenoneporphyrin 2 are 0.22 and 0.25, respectively.

Metal-mediated Discrete Supramolecular Assemblies of Porphyrins

There is substantial recent interest worldwide in the construction of multiporphyrin assemblies which can either mimic naturally occurring multichromophore aggregates, such as the photosynthetic reaction center and the light harvesting complex of purple bacteria, or which can be used as electron- and/or energy-transfer molecular devices for advanced technological tasks. The metal-mediated self-assembly approach, which exploits the formation of coordination bonds between peripheral basic site(s) on the porphyrins and metal centers, has recently allowed the design and preparation of sophisticated supramolecular architectures whose complexity and function begin to approach the properties of naturally occurring systems. Within this framework, meso -pyridyl/phenyl porphyrins (PyPs), or strictly related chromophores, can provide geometrically well-defined connections to as many as four metal centers by coordination of the pyridyl groups. Several discrete assemblies of various nuclearities, in which the pyridylporphyrins are linkers binding metalloporphyrins and/or coordination compounds, have been constructed in recent years. Our contribution to this field is reviewed, with the aim of providing insight into the design of new, more elaborated architectures of higher order.     

Reactions of trivacant lone-pair-containing tungstobismutate and electrochemical behaviors of its sandwich-type products

We report the crystal structure of dimeric precursor Na₁₂[(Na(H₂O)₂)₆(α-BiW₉O₃₃)₂] (1), and the interaction of this precursor with transition metal ions. Interaction of 1 with Cu²⁺ in neutral medium leads to the formation of a Hervé-type sandwich polyoxoanion [(Cu(H₂O))₃(α-BiW₉O₃₃)₂]^12? (2) in high yield. Interaction of 1 with M²⁺ (M?=?Zn, Ni, Co, Mn) in acidic aqueous medium leads to formation of Krebs-type sandwich polyoxoanions [(M(H₂O)₃)₂(WO)₂(β-BiW₉O₃₃)₂]^10? (3–6). Coordination geometry of the M²⁺ ions, counterions and precursors can affect the structure of products. In our experiments, only the interaction of 1 with Cu²⁺ forms a trisubstituted sandwich-type product. The method using [α-Bi^IIIW₉O₃₃]^9? as starting material is a convenient and effective route for the synthesis of sandwich-type tungstobismutates in high purity and yield. The electrochemical properties of these sandwich-type tungstobismutates in aqueous solution are described.     

Perovskite Films Doped with Polyoxometalate and Ionic Liquid Assisted Crystallization for Efficient Photodetectors

The dependence of perovskite-based photovoltaic devices on toxic solvents limits their applications. Therefore, we added polyoxometalates into ionic liquids, as the green solvent and polyoxometalates synergistically improve the performance of devices. Firstly, methylammonium formate (MAFa) as solvent delayed the crystallization process of perovskite thin films, thus obtained an extended crystal domain, and the photocurrent of the device was increased from 35.51 μA to 63.18 μA. Secondly, introducing PW₁₂ into this green solvent system, the matched energy level and good electron transmission rate promoted the separation of photogenerated excitons and accelerated the transmission of photogenerated electrons in perovskite. After dual adjustment of MAFa and PW₁₂, the photocurrent of the champion device reached 95.99 μA (about 2.7 times of the original device), the unpacked devices can still maintain 80 % of initial value after being placed under environmental conditions for 700 h.

Expanded Porphyrins: The Synthesis and Metal Binding Properties of Novel Tripyrrane-Containing Macrocycles

Abstract

Novel tripyrrane macrocycles have been prepared by the Schiff base condensation of 2,5-bis-(3-ethyl-5-formyl-4-methyl-pyrrol-2-ylmethyl)-3,4-diethylpyrrole and simple diamines. The structurally characterized macrocycle 1 forms 1:1 complexes with both Rh(I) and Zn(II) cations in which the metal is coordinated only to the imine nitrogens. In the presence of Cd(II) and oxygen, however, compound 1 is oxidized to the aromatic pentadentate ‘expanded porphyrin’ macrocycle 5, into which the metal cation is fully complexed.     

Spectroscopic and Electrochemical Properties of Catenanes Containing the 2,7-Diazapyrenium Unit

Abstract

The spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of two cyclophanes containing one and, respectively, two 2,7-diazapyrenium electron-acceptor units, and of their [2]catenanes with macrocycles containing two dioxybenzene or dioxynaphthalene electrondonor units have been investigated. The absorption spectra of the catenanes show weak and broad bands in the visible region, assigned to charge-transfer (CT) interactions. The very strong and structured fluorescence (298 K) and the structured fluorescence and phosphorescence (77 K) of the diazapyrenium unit are maintained in the two cyclophanes, but they are no longer present in the [2]catenanes, presumably because of a quenching process caused by the lower energy CT excited states. Each diazapyrenium unit undergoes two distinct reduction processes - only the first one of which is fully reversible - that are hardly affected at all when the diazapyrenium units are incorporated in a cyclophane. In the [2]catenanes, the CT interaction displaces the reduction processes of the diazapyrenium units toward more negative potentials. The results obtained for the diazapyrenium and previously investigated 4,4′-bipyridinium salts, selected cyclophane derivatives, and some [2]catenanes obtained by interlocking the cyclophanes with macrocycles containing two dioxyaromatic electron-donor units are compared and discussed.

Polyoxometalate Chemistry: An Old Field with New Dimensions in Several Disciplines

Inorganic metal–oxygen cluster anions form a class of compounds that is unique in its topological and electronic versatility and is important in several disciplines. Names such as Berzelius, Werner, and Pauling appear in the early literature of the field. These clusters (so-called isopoly- and heteropolyanions) contain highly symmetrical core assemblies of MO_x units (M = V, Mo, W) and often adopt quasi-spherical structures based on Archimedean and Platonic solids of considerable topological interest. Understanding the driving force for the formation of high-nuclearity clusters is still a formidable challenge. Polyoxoanions are important models for elucidating the biological and catalytic action of metal–chalcogenide clusters, since metal–metal interactions in the oxo clusters range from very weak (virtually none) to strong (metal–metal bonding) and can be controlled by choice of metal (3d, 4d, 5d), electron population (degree of reduction), and extent of protonation. Mixed-valence vanadates, in particular, show novel capacities for unpaired electrons, and the magnetic properties of these complexes may be tuned in a stepwise manner. Many vanadates also act as cryptands and clathrate hosts not only for neutral molecules and cations but also for anions, whereby a remarkable “induced self-assembly process” often occurs. Polyoxometalates have found applications in analytical and clinical chemistry, catalysis (including photocatalysis), biochemistry (electron transport inhibition), medicine (antitumoral, antiviral, and even anti-HIV activity), and solid-state devices. These fields are the focus of much current research. Metal–oxygen clusters are also present in the geosphere and possibly in the biosphere. The mixed–valence vanadates contribute to an understanding of the extremely versatile geochemistry of the metal. The significant differences between the chemistry of the polyoxoanions and that of the thioanions of the same elements is of relevance to heterogeneous catalysis, bioinorganic chemistry, and veterinary medicine.     

Beyond Charge Balance: Counter‐Cations in Polyoxometalate Chemistry

Polyoxometalates (POMs) are molecular metal‐oxide anions applied in energy conversion and storage, manipulation of biomolecules, catalysis, as well as materials design and assembly. Although often overlooked, the interplay of intrinsically anionic POMs with organic and inorganic cations is crucial to control POM self‐assembly, stabilization, solubility, and function. Beyond simple alkali metals and ammonium, chemically diverse cations including dendrimers, polyvalent metals, metal complexes, amphiphiles, and alkaloids allow tailoring properties for known applications, and those yet to be discovered. This review provides an overview of fundamental POM–cation interactions in solution, the resulting solid‐state compounds, and behavior and properties that emerge from these POM–cation interactions. We will explore how application‐inspired research has exploited cation‐controlled design to discover new POM materials, which in turn has led to the quest for fundamental understanding of POM–cation interactions.     

Polyoxometalate tri-supported transition metal complexes containing mixed-valent transition metal ions

Three compounds, [AsMo₈V₆O₄₂][Cu(2,2?-bpy)₂]₂[Cu(2,2?-bpy)]·4H₂O (1), [PMo₈V₆O₄₂][Cu(2,2?-bpy)₂]₂[Cu(2,2?-bpy)]·3H₂O (2) and [PMo₈V₆O₄₂][Cu(2,2?-bpy)₂]₂[Cu(2,2?-bpy)]·3.5H₂O (3), have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by IR, UV–vis, XRD, TG, elemental analysis, and X-ray diffraction analysis. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals that 1 and 2 are isostructural and isomorphous, whereas 2 and 3 are polymorphs. Polymorphs of 1 have not been synthesized yet. The mixed-valent transition metal ion in 1–3 has been further confirmed by TG analyses. Catalytic properties of 1 and 2 have also been studied.
