UV-vis, IR spectra and thermal studies of charge transfer complex formed between poly(amidoamine) dendrimers and iodine

The intermolecular charge-transfer (CT) complexes formed between two poly(amidoamine) dendrimers (PAMAM) from zero (D1) and second generation (D2) as donor and iodine as sigma-acceptor have been studied spectrophotometrically in the chloroform medium. The suggested structures of the solid iodine charge-transfer complexes investigated by several techniques using elemental analysis, mid infrared spectra, and thermal analysis (TGA and DTG) of the solid CT-complexes along with the photometric titration curves for the reactions. The results indicate the formation of two CT-complexes [(D1)]-I(2) and [(D2)]-2I(2) with acceptor:donor molar ratios of 1:1 and 1:2, respectively. The kinetic parameters (non-isothermal method) for their decomposition have been evaluated by graphical methods using the equations of Horowitz-Metzger (HM) and Coats-Redfern (CR).

Preparation and Spectroscopic Studies of Charge-Transfer Complexes of Thiamine Hydrochloride with Different Electron Acceptor

Abstract—Electronic interactions associated with charge transfer complexes formation of iodine, chloranilic acid (H₂CA) and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) with vitamin B1 have been studied spectrophotometrically. The accumulated data indicated formation of CT-complexes of the general formula [(VB1)(acceptor) _n ], (n = 1 or 2). The 1 : 2 and 1 : 1 donor: acceptor molar ratios were calculated on the basis of elemental analysis and photometric titrations. The solid complexes were prepared and characterized by their conductivity, UV-Vis, IR, and ¹H NMR spectra, and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA, DTG). The characteristic physical constants (K_CT, ε_CT, μ, ΔG, I_p, f, E_CT) of the formed CT-complexes were determined to be strongly dependent on nature of the electron acceptors.

Electron donor acceptor complexes (EDA) of the 1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclooctadecane (18-crown-6) as a rich donor were spectrophotometrically discussed and synthesized in solid form according the interactions with different nine of usual π-acceptors like 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorocyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (p-chloranil; p-CHL), tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone (o-chloranil; o-CHL), 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ), tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), 2,6-dichloroquinone-4-chloroimide (DCQ), 2,6-dibromoquinone-4-chloroimide (DBQ), 2,5-dichloro-3,6-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone (chloranilic acid; CLA), N-bromosuccinimide (NBS), 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (picric acid; PA). Spectroscopic and physical data such as formation constant (K(CT)), molar extinction coefficient (?(CT)), standard free energy (ΔG°), oscillator strength (f), transition dipole moment (μ), resonance energy (R(N)) and ionization potential (I(p)) were estimated in chloroform or methanol at 25°C. Based on the elemental analysis and photometric titrations the CT-complexes were formed indicated the formation of 1:1 charge-transfer complexes for the o-CHL, TCNQ, DCQ, DBQ and NBS acceptors but 1:3 ratio for p-CHL, DDQ, CLA and PA, respectively. The charge-transfer interactions were interpretative according to the formation of dative ion pairs [18C6(?+), A(?-)], where A is acceptor. All of the resulting charge transfer complexes were isolated in amorphous form and the complexes formations on IR and (1)H NMR spectra were discussed.

Influence of deformation and chemical structure on elementary free volumes in glassy polymers

In the scope of the mechanism of positronium formation in polymers before trapping by elementary free volumes (EFV), we demonstrate an approach to quantitative analyses of experimental results. Correspondingly, a relation between the EFV concentration and annihilation characteristics (lifetimes and intensities) is derived. We use PATFIT and CONTIN analyses of positron annihilation lifetime spectra and obtain information on some heterogeneity of the structure of glassy polymers and on the mechanism of the plastic flow of glassy material.     

Dissociative ionization of methyl-substituted hydroxyquinolines

The mass spectra of the following methyl-substituted hydroxyquinolines have been studied in the range of energies of the ionizing electrons of 15–50 eV: 2-hydroxy-4-methylquinoline, 6-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline, 6-hydroxy-4-methylquinoline, 8-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline, 8-hydroxy-4-methylquinoline, 2,6-dihydroxy-4-methylquinoline, and 4,6-dihydroxy-2-methylquinoline. It has been shown that the processes of dissociative ionization for the series of compounds investigated take place exclusively from the keto forms of the molecular ions. The stability to electron impact is determined largely by the degree of enolization of the structures considered. The values of the selective decomposition are given and a scheme is proposed for the identification of the isomeric methyl-substituted hydroxyquinolines.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 972–978, July, 1973.     

Synthesis and spectroscopic studies of the charge transfer complexes of 2- and 3-aminopyridine

The interactions of the electron donors 2-aminopyridine (2APY) and 3-aminopyridine (3APY) with the π-acceptors tetracyanoethylene (TCNE), 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (DDQ), 2-chloro-1,3,5-trinitrobenzene (picryl chloride, PC), and 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone (chloranil) were studied spectrophotometrically in chloroform at room temperature. The electronic and infrared spectra of the formed molecular charge transfer (CT) complexes were recorded. Photometric titration showed that the stoichiometries of the reactions were fixed and depended on the nature of both the donor and the acceptor. The molecular structures of the CT-complexes were, however, independent of the position of the amino group on the pyridine ring and were formulated as [(APY)(TCNE)], [(APY)(DDQ)], [(APY)(PC)], and [(APY) (chloranil)]. The formation constants (K_CT), charge transfer energy (E_CT) and molar extinction coefficients (_CT) of the formed CT-complexes were obtained.     

Structures of silver nitrate complexes with quinolines according to NMR data

Silver(I) nitrate complexes [AgNO₃(L)₂], where L is quinoline or 2-, 4-, and 8-methylquinoline, are synthesized and studied by the multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N) method in acetonitrile. The influence of steric and electronic factors of the organic ligand on the NMR spectral parameters is revealed. The fast chemical exchange of the free and coordinated ligands is observed at room temperature. The ¹⁵N NMR spectra are most informative. The formation of a complex with 8-methylquinoline is impeded because of steric hindrances.

Photoinduced intra- and intermolecular electron transfer in solutions and in solid organized molecular assemblies

The present paper highlights results of a systematic study of photoinduced electron transfer, where the fundamental aspects of the photochemistry occurring in solutions and in artificially or self-assembled molecular systems are combined and compared. In photochemical electron transfer (ET) reactions in solutions the electron donor, D, and acceptor, A, have to be or to diffuse to a short distance, which requires a high concentration of quencher molecules and/or long lifetimes of the excited donor or acceptor, which cannot always be arranged. The problem can partly be avoided by linking the donor and acceptor moieties covalently by a single bond, molecular chain or chains, or rigid bridge, forming D-A dyads. The covalent combination of porphyrin or phthalocyanine donors with an efficient electron acceptor, e.g. fullerene, has a two-fold effect on the electron transfer properties. Firstly, the electronic systems of the D-A pair result in a formation of an exciplex intermediate upon excitation both in solutions and in solid phases. The formation of the exciplex accelerates the ET rate, which was found to be as fast as >10(12) s(-1). Secondly, the total reorganization energy can be as small as 0.3 eV, even in polar solvents, which allows nanosecond lifetimes for the charge separated (CS) state. Molecular assemblies can form solid heterogeneous, but organized systems, e.g. molecular layers. This results in more complex charge separation and recombination dynamics. A distinct feature of the ET in organized assemblies is intermolecular interactions, which open a possibility for a charge migration both in the acceptor and in the donor layers, after the primary intramolecular exciplex formation and charge separation in the D-A dyad. The intramolecular ET is fast (35 ps) and efficient, but the formed interlayer CS states have lifetimes in microsecond or even second time domain. This is an important result considering possible applications.     

Dianions of 7,7,8,8-tetracyano-p-quinodimethane and perfluorinated tetracyanoquinodimethane: information on excited states from lifetime measurements in an electrostatic storage ring and optical absorption spectroscopy

We have developed an experimental technique that allows us to study the physics of short lived molecular dianions in the gas phase. It is based on the formation of monoanions via electrospray ionization, acceleration of these ions to keV energies, and subsequent electron capture in a sodium vapor cell. The dianions are stored in an electrostatic ion storage ring in which they circulate with revolution times on the order of 100 micros. This enables lifetime studies in a time regime covering five orders of magnitude, 10(-5)-1 s. We have produced dianions of 7,7,8,8-tetracyano-p-quinodimethane and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyano-p-quinodimethane (TCNQ-F(4)) and measured their lifetimes with respect to electron autodetachment. Our data indicate that most of the dianions were initially formed in electronically excited states in the electron transfer process. Two levels of excitation were identified by spectroscopy on the dianion of TCNQ-F(4), and the absorption spectrum was compared with spectra obtained from spectroelectrochemistry of TCNQ-F(4) in acetonitrile solution.     

Synthesis, spectral and thermal studies of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complex dyes based on hydroxyquinoline moiety

A series of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of azo-compounds containing hydroxyl quinoline moiety have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic moments, IR, electronic and ESR spectral studies. The results revealed the formation of 1:1 and 1:2 (L:M) complexes. The molar conductance data reveal that the chelates are nonelectrolyte. IR spectra indicate that the azodyes behave as monobasic bidentate or dibasic tetradentate ligands through phenolate or carboxy oxygen, azo N for 1:1 (L:M) complexes beside phenolate oxygen and quinoline N atoms for 1:2 (L:M) complexes. The thermal analyses (TG and DTA) as well as the solid electrical conductivity measurements are also studied. The molecular parameters of the ligands and their metal complexes have been calculated.     

Hydrogen-bonding effects on the formation and lifetimes of charge-separated States in molecular triads

Photoinduced electron transfer in two molecular triads comprised of a triarylamine donor, a d(6) metal diimine photosensitizer, and a 9,10-anthraquinone acceptor was investigated with particular focus on the influence of hydrogen-bonding solvents on the electron transfer kinetics. Photoexcitation of the ruthenium(II) and osmium(II) sensitizers of these triads leads to charge-separated states containing an oxidized triarylamine unit and a reduced anthraquinone moiety. The kinetics for formation of these charge-separated states were explored by using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. Strong hydrogen bond donors such as hexafluoroisopropanol or trifluoroethanol cause a thermodynamic and kinetic stabilization of these charge-separated states that is attributed to hydrogen bonding between alcoholic solvent and reduced anthraquinone. In the ruthenium triad this effect leads to a lengthening of the lifetime of the charge-separated state from ～750 ns in dichloromethane to ～3000 ns in hexafluoroisopropanol while in the osmium triad the respective lifetime increases from ～50 to ～2000 ns between the same two solvents. In both triads the lifetime of the charge-separated state correlates with the hydrogen bond donor strength of the solvent but not with the solvent dielectric constant. These findings are relevant in the greater context of solar energy conversion in which one is interested in storing light energy in charge-separated states that are as long-lived as possible. Furthermore they are relevant for understanding proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactivity of electronically excited states at a fundamental level because changes in hydrogen-bonding strength accompanying changes in redox states may be regarded as an attenuated form of PCET.     

Y沸石中的正电子湮没

本文测量了NaY、HY和NH_4Y在不同抽空温度下的正电子寿命谱, 得到了四个寿命组份, 并对它们的归属进行了讨论。其中两个长寿命组份τ_s和τ_4归结为沸石内表面和笼内o-Ps的湮没。o-Ps容易被沸石内的质子酸氧化, 而使其湮没寿命τ_3和τ_4缩短。利用正电子寿命谱可以监测NH_4Y沸石的脱氨过程。质子酸的存在对o-Ps的形成并无影响, 但随着质子酸浓度增加, o-Ps在沸石内表面湮没的几率大于笼内, 故I_3大于I_4。o-Ps的在沸石内表面和笼内的湮没速率与质子酸浓度成线性关系, 以一级反应动力学处理得到的o-Ps在沸石内表面和笼内的氧化反应表观速率常数分别为9.67×10~7(mmol/g)_~(-1)s~(-1)和2.36×10~7(mmol/g)~(-1)s~(-1)。     

Time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy of low-energy excitations of 4×4 C60/Cu(111)

Time-resolved two-photon photoemission is applied to investigate electron dynamics in multiple monolayers (MLs) of ordered fullerite on a copper substrate. The experimental data are analyzed assuming coupled excited state dynamics. Rate equations fitted to these dynamics yield lifetimes of about 80 ps for the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), about 1.2 ns for the singlet exciton and 22 μs for the triplet exciton at a surface temperature of 140 K. For trapped triplet excitons lifetimes up to 200 μs are observed. An increased excitation fluence reduces the lifetime of the excitons due to annihilation. An increased sample temperature slightly reduces the lifetime of the triplet exciton. There is no evident dependence of the exciton lifetimes on the pump photon energy in the range of hν = 2.9 to 3.3 eV. A dependence on the layer thickness (10-20 ML) is not observed as long as more than 9 ML are prepared.     

Synthesis and characterization of N,N'-bis[2-hydroxyethyl]-1,4,6,8-naphthalenediimide with para substituted of phenols based on charge-transfer complexes

The interaction of charge-transfer (CT) complexes resulted from the reaction of N,N'-bis[2-hydroxyethyl]-1,4,6,8-naphthalenediimide (BHENDI) with some various acceptors like as substituted phenols in para position; 4-aminophenol (4AP), 4-methylphenol (4MP) and 4-nitrophenol (4NP) have been studied in methanol at room temperature. The reaction was studied using electronic (UV-vis), mid infrared, and (1)H NMR spectra and thermal measurements (TGA and DTG) as well as elemental analysis CHN. The chemical analysis data of the resulted CT-complexes, BHENDI-acceptors, reveal that the formation of a 1:2 CT complexes in all cases. The interaction of N,N'-bis[2-hydroxyethyl]-1,4,6,8-naphthalenediimide and phenolic acceptors were investigated spectrophotometrically and found two detected CT bands have n-pi(*) transition. The donor site involved in CT interaction is the diimide two nitrogen atoms by forming hydrogen bonding. The kinetic thermodynamic parameters like DeltaE, DeltaH, DeltaS and DeltaG are calculated from the DTG diagrams using Coats-Redfern method. The electrical conductivity properties for the solid CT complexes were measured within the temperature of room 25 degrees C.
