Synthesis of a novel perylene diimide derivative and its charge transfer interaction with C_(60)

A novel organic electron acceptor, N,N′-dipyrimidinyl-3,4,9,10-perylene-tetracarboxylic diimide (DMP), was designed and synthesized. The molecular structure was characterized by FTIR spectrum and elemental analysis. By cyclic voltammetry measurements, DMP was found to possess a lower LUMO energy level than N,N′-diphenyl-3,4,9,10-perylene-tetracarboxylic diimide due to the stronger electron-withdrawing pyrimidinyl group than the phenyl group. Fluorescence quenching is observed in a dual-layer film consisting of a DMP layer and a C60 layer and was attributed to the charge transfer at the interface due to the energy level offset between DMP and C60.

Synthesis and luminescent properties of a silylated-terpyridine derivative and its metalated complexes in solutions and self-assembled monolayers

A silylated-terpyridine(Si TPy) derivative was newly synthesized and reacted with various transition metal ions in the solutions and self-assembled monolayers(SAMs).Composition and morphology of the SAMs were characterized by using absorption spectra,X-ray photoelectron spectra and atomic force microscope.The silylated-TPy compound gave off a luminescent emission at about 456 nm,which slightly shifted to 452 nm in the Zn2+-Si TPy and Fe2+-Si TPy metalated complexes.The absorbed energy can be further transferred to lanthanide ions(Tb3+and Eu3+) to give off the typical emissions of the lanthanide complexes together with an emission of the silylated-TPy at about 363 nm.     

Enthalpy of dilution of aqueous systems containing S-trioxane and some amides. Analysis of the interaction of saccharides with amides in aqueous media

Enthalpies of dilution of aqueous systems of trioxane+formamide and trioxane+dimethylformamide have been determined at 25°C. The data have been treated in terms of the Savage-Wood additivity principle, and a first estimate of the pairwise group interaction enthalpy for-O-/CONH is presented. Systems of saccharides and amides are not amenable to the Savage-Wood treatment used in recent works. However, when treated in conjunction with all available data to yield a different set of group interaction parameters, saccharides behave more predictably. Implications of this state of affairs are considered.

Synthesis and characterization of PVP/AAc copolymer hydrogel and its applications in the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution

Chelating poly(vinylpyrrolidone/acrylic acid) (PVP/AAc) copolymer hydrogels were prepared by radiation-induced copolymerization. The effects of preparation parameters such as PVP content in the hydrogel and irradiation dose on the swelling behavior of the hydrogel were studied. The pH dependent swelling was investigated. The thermal stability of the prepared hydrogel and the metal chelated ones was characterized by TGA. The removal of Fe(III), Cu(II), and Mn(II) from aqueous solution by the prepared PVP/AAc chelating hydrogel was examined by batch equilibration technique. The influence of treatment time, pH, and the initial feed concentration on the amount of the metal ions removed was studied. The results show that the removal of the metal ion followed the following order: Fe(III) > Cu(II) > Mn(II). The amounts of the removed metal ions increased with treatment time and pH of the medium. To re-use the hydrogel, the metal ions were stripped by using 2 N HCl.

Synthesis of thermo- and pH-sensitive star-shaped poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) and its properties in aqueous its properties in aqueous solutions with varying medium acidity

Abstract

pH-sensitive eight-arm star-shaped polymer with calix[8]arene core and block copolymer of poly(2-methoxycarbonylethyl-2-oxazoline) and poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) arms was synthesized for the first time. The block composition was 1:1 and molar mass was 24000?g?mol^?1. The behavior of synthesized star in aqueous solutions was analyzed by turbidity and light scattering at the pH values from 2 to 12.2. It is shown that in an organic solvent, the polymer molecule has a low shaped asymmetry. In aqueous solutions, the synthesized star exhibits thermosensitivity with a lower critical solution temperature. It was found that at low temperature in solutions, there were macromolecules and aggregates which were formed due to interaction of hydrophobic cores. The phase separation temperatures did not depend on pH in basic media and decreased strongly at pH <5.     

Interactions in aqueous nonelectrolyte systems. Gibbs energy of interaction of the ether group with the hydroxyl group and the amide group

Freezing temperatures of dilute aqueous solutions of equimolar mixtures of 1,3,5-trioxane with myo-inositol, d-mannitol, cyclohexanol, formamide, and acetamide, and 1,4-dioxane with myo-inositol, d-mannitol, formamide, and acetamide have been measured. These data yield pairwise Gibbs energies of interactions between the molecules in an aqueous solution. Using the group additivity principle, the results also yield the pairwise functional group Gibbs energies of interaction for the ether group with the hydroxyl and amide group. These results have been combined with all available data from the literature to yield the Gibbs energy and enthalpy of interaction of amides, ethers, alcohols, and saccharides in aqueous solution.To whom correspondence should be addressed.

Lithium 2-thienyltellurolate, generated from 2-thienyl lithium, reacts at −78 °C in THF with chloroethyl ethyl sulfide to give a (Te, S) ligand 1-ethylthio-2-[2-thienyltelluro]ethane (L) as a red oil. The complexes [PdCl₂(L)] (1), [PtCl₂(L)] (2), [Ag(L)₂][ClO₄] (3) and [CuBr(L)]₂ (4) were synthesized. The complex [HgCl₂(L)] on crystallization decomposed giving Th₂TeCl₂ (5) [where Th = 2-thienyl], which was characterized by X-ray diffraction on its single crystals. The ligand L and complexes 1–4 exhibit proton and carbon-13 NMR spectra, which are characteristic. The coordination through Te in 1–4 is indicated by downfield coordination shifts in the position of the TeCH₂ signal of L. Complex 1 was characterized by X-ray diffraction on its single crystals. The geometry around Pd is square planar. The Pd–Te, Pd–S and Pd–Cl bond lengths are 2.5040(4), 2.273(1) and 2.322(1)/2.380(1) Å, respectively. There are intermolecular interactions between Te (coordinated to Pd) and Cl, and sulfur and Cl. The Te–Cl and S–Cl distances, 3.401 and 3.488 Å, respectively, are shorter than the sum of the van der Waal’s radii (3.81 and 3.55 Å, respectively). The Pd–Pd distance between the two molecules is 3.4156(6) Å, greater than the sum of van der Waal’s radii (3.26 Å). The structure of 5 is typical of that of a tellurium(IV) compound (saw-horse type). The two Te–Cl bond lengths are identical, 2.480(1) Å. The geometry around Te in 5 can be best described as pseudo tetrahedral (trigonal bipyramidal with a lone pair on one corner of the triangle).     

Synthesis, Structure and Luminescence of a Novel 2D Cadmium Coordination Polymer with a Ligand Generated in situ

The hydrothermal reaction of 1,2-dicyanobenzene with NaN3 in the presence of Cd(NO3)2 affords a novel 2D cadmium tetrazolyl-benzoate,{Cd(tzbz)(H2O)}n (H2tzbz is 2-(5-tetrazolyl)-benzoate). The tzbz ligand is generated in situ through the 2+3 Sharpless cycloaddition reaction and hydrolyzation. Its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. The crystal crystallizes in the orthorhombic system,space group Pbca with a=9.6659(19),b=7.6366(15),c=25.964(5) ,V=1916.5(7) 3,Z=8,Mr=318.57,Dc= 2.208 g/cm3,F(000)=1232 and μ=2.276 mm-1. The Cd(Ⅱ) atom is coordinated by four tzbz ligands and one water molecule to form a severely distorted pentangle bipyramid. While each tzbz ligand connects to four Cd(Ⅱ) atoms in a μ4-η1,η2,η1,η1,η1 coordination mode to construct a 2D architecture of the title complex. Additionally,the title complex exhibits strong fluorescence at room temperature in the solid state.     

Dioxouranium(VI)-carboxylate complexes: A calorimetric and potentiometric investigation of interaction with oxalate at infinite dilution and in NaCl aqueous solution at I = 1.0 mol L and T = 25 °C

In this paper we investigated the interactions between dioxouranium(VI) and oxalate using (H⁺-glass electrode) potentiometry and titration calorimetry. Potentiometric measurements were carried out in NaCl aqueous solutions and at T = 25 °C in a wide range of experimental conditions (concentrations, ligand/metal molar ratio, pH, titrants) at low ionic strength values (I ≤ 0.090 mol L⁻¹, without supporting electrolyte) and at I = 1.0 mol L⁻¹; different procedures were employed for the acquisition of experimental data and careful analysis of these data performed. In all cases the speciation model that best fits experimental data takes into account the formation of the binary mononuclear species UO₂(ox)⁰, UO₂(ox)₂²⁻, UO₂(ox)₃⁴⁻ widely reported in literature, the ternary hydroxyl mononuclear species UO₂(ox)OH⁻, UO₂(ox)(OH)₂²⁻, UO₂(ox)₂OH³⁻, UO₂(ox)₃OH⁵⁻, the protonated ternary mononuclear species UO₂(ox)₃H³⁻ and the binuclear species (UO₂)₂(ox)₅⁶⁻.Calorimetric measurements were carried out following similar procedures and in the same experimental conditions as employed for the potentiometric measurements at I = 1.0 mol L⁻¹ in NaCl. The stability of UO₂²⁺-oxalate²⁻ complexes is fairly high and their main contribution to stability is entropic in nature. Some linear empirical relationships were found which make it possible to calculate (i) the contribution of a single bond: and ; (ii) chelate stabilisation per ring: and and (iii) the mean stability of negatively charged Na⁺-ion pair complexes: log^TK = (0.46 ± 0.02)·|z| (z = charge of complex species), ΔG° = −(2.60 ± 0.1)·|z| kJ mol⁻¹ and TΔS° = 2.5 ± 0.5 kJ mol⁻¹. Both potentiometric and calorimetric results provide evidence of the penta-coordination of the species UO₂(ox)₃⁴⁻. SIT parameters were calculated from the data at I = 0 and I = 1.02 mol kg⁻¹. Comparisons are made with literature data. An insoluble dioxouranium(VI) ternary complex was synthesised (at I = 1.0 mol L⁻¹ in NaCl) and characterised by thermoanalysis and elemental analysis.     

Reaction of diacetylmonoxime with morpholine N-thiohydrazide in the absence and in presence of a metal ion: Facile synthesis of a thiadiazole derivative with non-bonded SS interaction

The condensation of diacetylmonoxime (damnx) with morpholine N-thiohydrazide (mth) in 1:1 molar ratio in ethanol (16 h) afforded a nitrogen–sulfur zwitterionic heterocyclic compound, N-(3,4-dimethyl-1,2,5-thiadiazole-2-ium-2-yl)morpholine-4-carbothioate (dtmc). However, the same reaction in presence of [Zn(OAc)₂]·2H₂O in ethanol under gentle reflux on (3 h) yielded the zinc complex, [Zn(Hdammthiol)(OAc)(H₂O)]·H₂O, where H₂dammthiol (H₂L²) is the thiol form of tridentate NNS donor thiohydrazone ligand, diacetylmonoxime morpholine N-thiohydrazone (Hdammth). Both the nitrogen–sulfur heterocyclic compound and the zinc complex have been characterized by elemental analyses, spectroscopy (IR, UV–Vis, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR) and single crystal X-ray crystallography. It is noteworthy that the heterocyclic compound shows SS interaction with distance 2.738 Å in its planar conformation. The heterocyclic compound forms two dimensional supramolecular sheets through C–HO and ππ interactions while the zinc complex, with distorted square pyramidal geometry, forms 1D supramolecular chain. A mechanism has been proposed for the formation of nitrogen–sulfur heterocyclic compound.
