Highly enhanced visible-light photocatalytic hydrogen evolution on g-C3N4 decorated with vopc through π-π interaction

Photocatalytic H₂ evolution reactions on pristine graphitic carbon nitrides (g-C₃N₄), as a promising approach for converting solar energy to fuel, are attractive for tackling global energy concerns but still suffer from low efficiencies. In this article, we report a tractable approach to modifying g-C₃N₄ with vanadyl phthalocyanine (VOPc/CN) for efficient visible-light-driven hydrogen production. A non-covalent VOPc/CN hybrid photocatalyst formed via π-π stacking interactions between the two components, as confirmed by analysis of UV-vis absorption spectra. The VOPc/CN hybrid photocatalyst shows excellent visible-light-driven photocatalytic performance and good stability. Under optimal conditions, the corresponding H₂ evolution rate is nearly 6 times higher than that of pure g-C₃N₄. The role of VOPc in promoting hydrogen evolution activity was to extend the visible light absorption range and prevent the recombination of photoexcited electron-hole pairs effectively. It is expected that this facile modification method could be a new inspiration for the rational design and exploration of g-C₃N₄-based hybrid systems with strong light absorption and high-efficiency carrier separation.     

Relevance of π-Backbonding for the Reactivity of Electrophilic Anions [B12X11]− (X=F,Cl, Br,I, CN)

Electrophilic anions of type [B₁₂X₁₁]⁻ posses a vacant positive boron binding site within the anion. In a comparatitve experimental and theoretical study, the reactivity of [B₁₂X₁₁]⁻ with X=F, Cl, Br, I, CN is characterized towards different nucleophiles: (i) noble gases (NGs) as σ-donors and (ii) CO/N₂ as σ-donor-π-acceptors. Temperature-dependent formation of [B₁₂X₁₁NG]⁻ indicates the enthalpy order (X=CN)>(X=Cl)≈(X=Br)>(X=I)≈(X=F) almost independent of the NG in good agreement with calculated trends. The observed order is explained by an interplay of the electron deficiency of the vacant boron site in [B₁₂X₁₁]⁻ and steric effects. The binding of CO and N₂ to [B₁₂X₁₁]⁻ is significantly stronger. The B3LYP 0 K attachment enthapies follow the order (X=F)>(X=CN)>(X=Cl)>(X=Br)>(X=I), in contrast to the NG series. The bonding motifs of [B₁₂X₁₁CO]⁻ and [B₁₂X₁₁N₂]⁻ were characterized using cryogenic ion trap vibrational spectroscopy by focusing on the CO and N₂ stretching frequencies and , respectively. Observed shifts of and are explained by an interplay between electrostatic effects (blue shift), due to the positive partial charge, and by π-backdonation (red shift). Energy decomposition analysis and analysis of natural orbitals for chemical valence support all conclusions based on the experimental results. This establishes a rational understanding of [B₁₂X₁₁]⁻ reactivety dependent on the substituent X and provides first systematic data on π-backdonation from delocalized σ-electron systems of closo-borate anions.

Connected components of the category of elementary abelian p-subgroups

We determine the maximal number of conjugacy classes of maximal elementary abelian subgroups of rank 2 in a finite p-group G, for an odd prime p. Namely, it is p if G has rank at least 3 and it is p+1 if G has rank 2. More precisely, if G has rank 2, there are exactly 1,2,p+1, or possibly 3 classes for some 3-groups of maximal nilpotency class.

The reaction of 6,7-dicyanodipyridoquinoxaline （DICNQ） with AgNO3 in a 1：1 molar ratio by solution method gave a new complex [Ag（DICNQ）2]NO3 1. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the complex crystallizes in the space group Ibca of orthorhombic system with eight formula units in a cell. Crystal data for 1： a = 15.7055（17）, b = 18.411（2）, c = 20.680（2）A, V = 5979.7（11）A3, Z = 8, C32Hl2AgN13O3, Mr = 734.42, Dc = 1.632 g/cm3, μ= 0.734 mm-1, F（000） = 2928, S = 1.023 and T= 293（2） K. The final R = 0.0659 and wR = 0.1927 for 2118 observed reflections with I 〉 2σ（I）, and R = 0.0801 and wR = 0.2196 for all data. The complex builds up a packing structure by π-π stacking interactions and shows a luminescent feature.     

A Classification of Regular p-Groups with Invariants (e, 2, 1)

The class of the regular p-groups is one of the important classes in p-groups. Not only it has many similar properties as abelian p-groups, but also many of the p-groups belong to this class. In this paper, using the algorithms for determining the isomorphic regular p-groups, we give a complete classification of the regular p-groups with e-invariants (e, 2, 1).Supported by SXYSF 991003.     

Hexacoordinated Tetrel-Bonded Complexes between TF4 (T=Si,Ge, Sn,Pb) and NCH: Competition between σ- and π-Holes

In order to accommodate the approach of two NCH bases, a tetrahedral TF₄ molecule (T=Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) distorts into an octahedral structure in which the two bases can be situated either cis or trans to one another. The square planar geometry of TF₄, associated with the trans arrangement of the bases, is higher in energy than its see-saw structure that corresponds to the cis trimer. On the other hand, the square geometry offers an unobstructed path of the bases to the π-holes above and below the tetrel atom and hence enjoys a higher interaction energy than is the case for the σ-holes approached by the bases in the cis arrangement. When these two effects are combined, the total binding energies are more exothermic for the cis than for the trans complexes. This preference amounts to some 3 kcal mol⁻¹ for Sn and Pb, but is amplified for the smaller tetrel atoms.
