Synthesis,characterization, crystal structure,catalytic activity in oxidative bromination,and thermal study of a new oxidovanadium Schiff base complex containing O,N-bidentate Schiff base ligand

A new oxidovanadium(IV) Schiff base complex, VOL₂ (1), HL = 2-{(E)-[2- (bromoethyl)imino]methyl}-6-methoxy phenol, containing ethyl bromide pendant group was synthesized by direct reaction of HL and VO(acac)₂ in the ratio of 2 : 1 in methanol at reflux. The Schiff base ligand and its vanadyl complex were characterized by FT-IR spectra and CHN analysis. Additionally, the Schiff base ligand has been characterized by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of 1 was also determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis, showing the distorted square-pyramidal N₂O₃ coordination around vanadium(IV). The catalytic activity of 1 was studied in the oxidative bromination of 2-nitrophenol as a model substrate, and different reaction parameters were investigated. The oxidative bromination of some organic compounds in the presence of 1 in optimal conditions showed that it was an effective and selective catalyst in those optimal conditions. Thermogravimetric analysis of 1 showed that it decomposed in two stages. 1 was thermally decomposed in air at 660 °C, and the XRD pattern of the obtained solid showed the formation of the V₂O₅ nanoparticles with average size of 34 nm .     

Synthesis and characterization of an anion triazole framework containing μ 3-Cl and μ 2-Cl bridges

Using 3,5-dimethyl-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole (L) and corresponding Ag(I), K(I) salts under ammonia solution and hydrothermal conditions, a triazole–silver(I)–potassium(I) complex {K[Ag₂L₂(μ ₃-Cl)(μ ₂-Cl)₂]} _n (1) has been isolated.

Synthesis and properties of ruthenium(II) complexes of 3,3′-polymethylene-2-(pyrid-2′-yl)benzo[b]-1,10-phenanthrolines

Coordination abilities of unsymmetrical tridentate ligands, 3,3′-polymethylene-2-(pyrid-2′-yl)-benzo[b]-1,10-phenanthrolines (4) were studied. Reactions of the 3,3′-di- and 3,3′-trimethylene-2-(pyrid-2′-yl)benzo[b]-1,10-phenanthrolines (4b and 4c) with RuCl₃ ? 3H₂O afforded [Ru(4b)₂]²⁺ and [Ru(4c)₂]²⁺ in 57% and 78% yield, respectively, while reactions of the parent non-bridged ligand (4a), tetramethylene-bridged ligand (4d), and fully aromatized ligand (4e) afforded a messy mixture. Reactions of 4 with Ru(tpy)Cl₃ (tpy = 2,2′;6′,2″-terpyridine) afforded [Ru(tpy)(4)]²⁺ in 61–72% yields. UV absorption spectra of the ligands showed four ligand-centered (LC) π–π* transitions and their Ru complexes showed four LC π–π* transitions and one Ru(d_π) → ligand(π*) MLCT. The ligands showed three major emission maxima (λ _emission) in the region of 393–418, 416–445, and 437–471 nm in which λ _emission is highly dependent on the length of the methylene bridge connecting C3 of benzo[b]-1,10-phenanthroline and C3 of pyridine. Ru complexes with fully aromatic ligand, [Ru(tpy)(4e)]²⁺, and the most distorted ligand, [Ru(tpy)(4d)]²⁺, showed two emission maxima at 410 and 444–446 nm, while the others showed one emission at 410 nm. Each of the emission maxima is bathochromatically shifted from the complex with the most distorted ligand (4d) to the complex with fully aromatized planar ligand (4e) indicating lower energy emission.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and spectroscopic properties of two new complexes containing azido or dicyanamido bridges

Two new complexes, [Cu(L₁){N(CN)₂}]·ClO₄ (1) (L₁ is 1,8-dimethyl-1,3,6,8,10,13-hexa-azacyclotetradecane) and [Co(L₂)(N₃)₂]·ClO₄ (2) (L₂ is 5,7,7,12,14,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetra-azacyclotetradecane) have been synthesized and characterized. The compounds crystallize in the monoclinic system P2₁ space group for 1 and P2₁/n for 2. Single crystal X-ray analysis reveals that the compound 1 assumes a one-dimensional structure via hydrogen-bonding interactions, in which each Cu(II) ion is coordinated by four nitrogen atoms from ligand L₁ and one nitrogen atom from [N(CN)₂]⁻ anion. For compound 2, each Co(III) ion is coordinated by four nitrogen atoms of ligand L₂ and two nitrogen atoms from N₃ ⁻ anion.     

Syntheses, crystal structures and spectral properties of three chiral complexes [M((R, R)-et-pybox)Cl2] (M=Zn and Mn) and [Ni((R, R)-et-pybox)(H2O)2Cl]Cl

Three chiral complexes: [M((R, R)-et-pybox)Cl₂] (M=Zn, 1, and Mn, 2) and [Ni((R, R)-et-pybox)(H₂O)₂Cl]Cl (3) ((R, R)-et-pybox is C₂-symmetric 2,6-bis[4′-(R)-ethoxyoxazolin-2′-yl]pyridine) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV, TG and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses show that 1 is isostructural to 2, the obtained complexes are of isolated mononuclear and the metal atoms of 1 and 2 have distorted trigonal bipyramidal coordination environment. A feature of interest is noted in the unit cell of 3, there exist two types of molecules, which similarly have a distorted octahedral geometry but only slightly differ in the orientation of the coordinated atoms to the central Ni atom. These two types of molecules interact with each other by O–H···Cl hydrogen bonds, giving rise to one-dimensional ribbon structure.     

Mn掺杂SnO_2一维纳米结构的制备、形貌及光学性质

Crystal structures and fluorescence properties of two architecture-correlated Zn(II)/Cd(II) MOFs constructed from an unprecedented tri-triazole ligand

By employing an unprecedented tri-triazole ligand, 4-amino-3,5-bis-(1H-1,2,4-triazole)-1,2,4-triazole (H₂L), two Zn(II)/Cd(II) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), [ZnL]·3H₂O (1) and [CdL]·H₂O (2), were successfully synthesized and characterized. In the two complexes, M(II) centers are chelated and bridged by L bridges to form a one-dimensional (1-D) 4₁ helical chain in 1 with high-symmetry Pbca, and a 2₁ helical chain in 2 with lower symmetry P2₁/n, respectively. The two chains are further linked by L into two structure-correlated three-dimensional (3-D) architectures. PXRD and TG analysis confirmed the phase purity and stability of 1 and 2. The solid-state fluorescence properties of the prepared MOF revealed a maximum emission at 382?nm and 393?nm (λ_ex = 330?nm), ascribing to the intra-ligand transitions. Interestingly, an additional strong emission peak at 516?nm can be observed in 1 (below 400?°C), while the emission was silenced in 2. The additional emission band may be attributed to the subtle difference of architectural features and coordination configurations between in 1 and 2.     

Synthesis,crystal structures and NIR luminescence of sandwich-like tetradentate salophen phenoxo-bridged heterotrinuclear metal complexes

Six phenoxo-bridged tetradentate salophen heterotrinuclear Zn₂Ln complexes, [Ln(ZnL)₂(NO₃)₃(CH₃OH)₂]·CH₃OH·CH₂Cl₂ [Ln?=?Pr (1), Nd (2)] and [Ln(ZnL)₂(NO₃)₃(CH₃OH)]·CH₃OH·CH₂Cl₂ [Ln?=?Eu (3), Ho (4), Er (5), and Yb (6)], have been isolated from reactions of N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-(phenylene-diamine) with Ln(NO₃)₃6H₂O and Zn(OAc)₂2H₂O. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that 1–6 are isomorphic with phenoxo-bridged, sandwich-like {Zn₂Ln} core. Near infrared (NIR) luminescence spectra show that 6 exhibits typical emission of Yb³⁺ upon excitation at the ligand-centered absorption band at 357?nm.     

Nanocage containing metal-organic framework constructed from a newly designed low symmetry tetra-pyrazole ligand

1368-Tetra(1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-9H-carbazole (H₄CTP), a tetra-pyrazole ligand with C_s symmetry, has been synthesized based on a carbazole core. A solvothermal reaction of this ligand with NiCl₂·6H₂O gave a three-dimensional (3-D) metal-organic framework (MOF), [Ni(H₄CTP)Cl₂]·nS (BUT-41), which crystallized in the cubic space group Pm-3 in spite of H₄CPT with a central carbazole core and four peripheral pyrazole rings has low symmetry. The framework of BUT-41 can be regarded as a four-connected 3-D net with the rhr topology when both the organic ligand and the metal center are considered as four-connected nodes. Nanocages with internal diameter of 2 nm are present in the framework of BUT-41, which are formed by interconnecting 12 H₄CTP ligands and 20 Ni(II) ions. Each nanocage connects with six adjacent cages through sharing hexagonal windows with diameter over 7 Å, resulting in 3-D intersecting channels of the MOF. Although the tetra-pyrazole ligand is not deprotonated after coordination with the metal ions, powder X-ray diffraction and N₂ adsorption experiments reveal that the framework of BUT-41 is rigid and permanently porous with the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area up to 1551 m² g^?1. Furthermore, gas adsorption experiments show that this MOF selectively adsorbs CO₂ over N₂ and CH₄.     

Controlled synthesis of single-crystalline Mg(OH)2 nanotubes and nanorods via a solvothermal process

The synthesis of Mg(OH)₂ one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures was systematically investigated in different solvents at various temperatures with Mg₁₀OH₁₈Cl₂·5H₂O nanowires as source materials. The results showed that the characters of the products, such as crystal size, shape, and structure, were strongly influenced by the solvent and temperature during the solvothermal process. 1D nanotubes of Mg(OH)₂, with 80-300 nm outer diameter, 30-80 nm wall thickness, and several tens of micrometers in length were obtained by choosing bidentate ligand solvents such as ethylenediamine and 1,6-diaminohexane as the reaction solvent. But when using monodentate ligand pyridine as the reaction solvent, the obtained samples showed nanorods morphology. The Mg(OH)₂ thus produced was analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution electron microscopy (HRTEM), and selected-area electron diffraction (SAED). The possible growth mechanism of the 1D nanostructure Mg(OH)₂ was discussed.     

基于一维DNA组装磁性纳米探针的夹心型安培免疫传感器研究

Luminescence enhancement of Eu, Ce co-doped Ba3Si5O13−δNδ phosphors

Host lattice Ba₃Si₅O_13−δN_δ oxonitridosilicates have been synthesized by the traditional solid state reaction method. The lattice structure is based on layers of vertex-linked SiO₄ tetrahedrons and Ba²⁺ ions, where each Ba²⁺ ion is coordinated by eight oxygen atoms forming distorted square antiprisms. Under an excitation wavelength of 365 nm, Ba₃Si₅O_13−δN_δ:Eu²⁺ and Ba₃Si₅O_13−δN_δ:Eu²⁺,Ce³⁺ show broad emission bands from about 400-620 nm, with maxima at about 480 nm and half-peak width of around 130 nm. The emission intensity is strongly enhanced by co-doping Ce³⁺ ions into the Ba₃Si₅O_13−δN_δ:Eu²⁺ phosphor, which could be explained by energy transfer. The excitation band from the near UV to the blue light region confirms the possibility that Ba₃Si₅O_13−δN_δ:Eu²⁺, Ce³⁺ could be used as a phosphor for white LEDs.     

Structural, spectroscopic and photoluminescence studies of LiEu(WO4)2−x(MoO4)x as a near-UV convertible phosphor

A series of lithium europium double tungsto-molybdate phosphors LiEu(WO₄)_2−x(MoO₄)_x (x=0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6, 2.0) have been synthesized by solid-state reactions and their crystal structure, optical and luminescent properties were studied. As the molybdate content increases, the intensity of the ⁵D₀→⁷F₂ emission of Eu³⁺ activated at wavelength of 396 nm was found to increase and reach a maximum when the relative ratio of Mo/W is 2:0. These changes were found to be accompanied with the changes in the spectral feature, which can be attributed to the crystal field splitting of the ⁵D₀→⁷F₂ transition. As the molybdate content increases the emission intensity of the 615 nm peak also increases. The intense red-emission of the tungstomolybdate phosphors under near-UV excitation suggests them to be potential candidate for white light generation by using near-UV LEDs. In this study the effect of chemical compositions and crystal structure on the photoluminescent properties of LiEu(WO₄)_2−x(MoO₄)_x is investigated and discussed.     

Synthesis,structure and properties of three one-dimensional coordination polymers {[M(II)L(NCS)2](DMF)2} n (M(II)=cadmium(II), zinc(II), manganese(II); L=1,4-bis[2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazolato]butane)

A tetradentate N-donor ligand 1,4-bis[2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazolato]butane (L) was prepared for construction of a coordination framework. Three one-dimensional coordination polymers {[M(II)L(NCS)₂](DMF)₂} _n (M(II) = cadmium(II), 1, zinc(II), 2, manganese(II), 3) were obtained by reaction of metal ions and L in the presence of KSCN in DMF/water. The complexes are isostructural and consist of 1D zigzag [M(II)L(NCS)₂] _n chains and DMF molecules. Within the chains, the metal atoms are each octahedrally coordinated by four N atoms of L and two N atoms of the SCN^? anions. Complexes 1 and 2 in the solid state at room temperature exhibit intense photoluminescence at 453 and 433 nm, respectively.     

Syntheses and characterizations of 5-nitro-2-(3′,5′-di(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)pyridyl-containing iridium(III) complexes and the two-band white photoluminescence properties in solution

A derivative of 2-phenylpyridine (Hppy), 5-nitro-2-(3′,5′-di(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)pyridine (HL), is prepared. The L-containing cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes with mono- and bidentate ancillary ligands, [Ir(L)₂(PPh₃)Cl] (1) and [Ir(L)₂(pic)] (2, pic = picolinic acid), are synthesized and characterized. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra of 1 and 2 in CH₂Cl₂ solutions show emission maxima at 558 and 560 nm, corresponding to yellow light emission with the Commission Internationale de L’éclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.45, 0.54) and (0.46, 0.52), respectively. However, the luminescence intensity of 2 with PL quantum yield of 0.71 is obviously stronger that of 1 with PLQY of 0.19. The two-band white PL properties of 2 and [Ir(dfppy)₂(PPh₃)(NCS)] (3, dfppy = 2-(4,6-difluorophenyl)pyridine) with efficient blue light emission are investigated. The CH₂Cl₂ solutions of 2 and 3 in the molar ratio of 1?:?5 show white light emission with the CIE coordinates of (0.33, 0.41).
