Three‐Dimensional Cuprous Lead Bromide Framework with Highly Efficient and Stable Blue Photoluminescence Emission

Considering the instability and low photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of blue‐emitting perovskites, it is still challenging and attractive to construct single crystalline hybrid lead halides with highly stable and efficient blue light emission. Herein, by rationally introducing d¹⁰ transition metal into single lead halide as new structural building unit and optical emitting center, we prepared a bimetallic halide of [(NH₄)₂]CuPbBr₅ with new type of three‐dimensional (3D) anionic framework. [(NH₄)₂]CuPbBr₅ exhibits strong band‐edge blue emission (441 nm) with a high PLQY of 32 % upon excitation with UV light. Detailed photophysical studies indicate [(NH₄)₂]CuPbBr₅ also displays broadband red light emissions derived from self‐trapped states. Furthermore, the 3D framework features high structural and optical stabilities at extreme environments during at least three years. To our best knowledge, this work represents the first 3D non‐perovskite bimetallic halide with highly efficient and stable blue light emission.     

Ag-based bimetallic clusters as catalysts for p-nitrophenol reduction by glycerol: A DFT investigation

Reducing p-nitrophenol (PNP) to p-aminophenol is an industrially relevant synthesis. Nevertheless, only a few heterogeneous catalysts have been evaluated for the reduction of PNP by glycerol. Appropriate quantum computational studies can screen potential catalysts for this crucial green reaction. The present research investigates the catalytic activities of Pd@Ag and Ni@Ag core-shell nanogeometries toward PNP reduction by glycerol through density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The central atom of a geometry-optimized 13-atom Ag cluster was replaced by Pd and Ni atoms to create the core-shell morphologies. The interaction energies of PNP and glycerol with each of the (metal/bimetallic) clusters were evaluated by DFT calculations to find the best PNP and glycerol molecule orientation with the respective bimetallic cluster. Electrostatic potential surface and natural bond orbital analyses were performed to study the charge distribution and transfer between atomic orbitals. The frequencies of vibrational modes in isolated PNP/glycerol structures were compared to those when these molecules were in the presence of the different metal clusters to infer the effect of the interactions. All performed analyses indicated improved catalytic activity toward PNP reduction by glycerol upon Ni-doping of the Ag₁₃ cluster.     

NO在Ag/Pt(110)-(1×2)双金属表面的吸附：亚硝酸盐/硝酸盐表面物种的生成

以俄歇电子能谱、X射线光电子能谱和热脱附谱研究了室温下NO在Ag/Pt(110)-(1×2)双金属表面的吸附. 在该双金属表面上观察到了可能的亚硝酸盐/硝酸盐表面物种,其在更高温度下分解生成N₂. 然而,室温下NO在清洁Pt(110)表面和Ag-Pt合金表面上并不会生成这种亚硝酸盐/硝酸盐表面物种. 亚硝酸盐/硝酸盐表面物种的形成归因于高度配位不饱和Ag粒子的高活性及其与Pt基底之间的协同作用.     

Cyclohexane transformations over metal oxide catalysts. 2. Selective cyclohexane ring opening to form n-hexane over mono- and bimetallic rhodium catalysts

The activity of monometallic Rh and Pt catalysts and bimetallic Pt—Rh catalysts on oxide supports in cyclohexane ring opening to form n-hexane was studied. The Rh-containing catalysts are highly active and selective in this reaction. Cyclohexane dehydrogenation predominates in the case of the Pt catalysts. The use of the bimetallic alumina-supported Pt—Rh catalysts allows one to minimize the contribution of cyclohexane cracking and to enhance the selectivity for n-hexane with the yield of the latter slightly depending on the metal ratio in the bimetallic system under the experimental conditions.

Addition of Alkynes to High Nuclearity Platinum–Ruthenium Carbonyl Cluster Complexes

The reactions of the mixed metal cluster complexes PtRu₅(CO)₁₆(μ₆-C)[Pt(PBu )], 5 and PtRu₅(CO)₁₆(μ₆-C)[Pt(PBu ]₂, 6 with selected alkynes have been investigated. Compound 5 adds one and two equivalents of PhC₂H to yield the new compounds PtRu₅(CO)₁₅(μ₆-C)(μ₃-PhC₂H)[Pt(PBu )], 8 and PtRu₅(CO) -C)( -PhC₂H)₂[Pt(PBu )], 9 at 40 and 68°C, respectively. Compound 6 was found to react with PhC₂H at 40°C to yield the new compound PtRu₅(CO) -C)( -PhC₂H)[Pt(PBu )]₂, 10. The reaction of 6 with PhC₂Ph at 97°C yielded the new compound PtRu₅(CO) -C)( -PhC₂Ph)₂[Pt(PBu )]₂, 11. All products were characterized crystallographically by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The structure of 8 consists of a pseudo-octahedral PtRu₅ cluster with a second platinum atom bridging a basal edge of the Ru₅ square pyramid. A triply bridging PhC₂H ligand is bonded to the two platinum atoms and one of the ruthenium atoms. The structure of 9 consists of a nido-dodecahedral Pt₂Ru₅ cluster with a carbido ligand in the interior that is not bonded to all seven of the metal atoms. It also contains two triply bridging PhC₂H ligands. The structure of 10 consists of a central octahedral cluster of five ruthenium atoms and one platinum atom. Two additional platinum atoms are bonded to the platinum atom in this cluster but these atoms are not bonded to any other metal atoms of the PtRu₅ cluster. A triply bridging PhC₂H ligand is coordinated to the group of three platinum atoms. The structure of 11 consists of an octahedral PtRu₅ cluster with two additional platinum atoms capping two PtRu₂ triangular faces. There are two PhC₂Ph ligands bridging two Ru₃ triangular faces of the central octahedron. This report is dedicated to Professor Ilya Moiseev on the occasion of his 75th birthday for his many pioneering contributions to the chemistry of metal clusters.     

Stereodivergent Desymmetrization of Simple Dicarboxylates via Branch-Selective Pd/Cu Catalyzed Allylic Substitution

Asymmetric desymmetrization has been demonstrated to be a powerful strategy for building stereocenters in asymmetric synthesis. Herein, a Pd/Cu catalyzed asymmetric desymmetrization reaction with a simple geminal dicarboxylate is reported. A wide scope of imino esters bearing an aryl or heteroaromatic group were compatible with this bimetallic catalytic system. The reactions proceeded smoothly, giving the desired products in good yields with high to excellent regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity (up to 20 : 1 branched:linear, >20 : 1 dr, >99 % ee). Notably, the reaction favored branched selectivity, which is unusual for the Pd-catalyzed allylic alkylation reaction. In addition, the standard product could be easily transformed to other valuable molecules such as chiral allylic alcohols, carbamates, and organic boron compounds. Furthermore, DFT calculations were conducted to explain the origin of the branched selectivity.
