Ionic hydrogen bonds controlling two-dimensional supramolecular systems at a metal surface

Hydrogen-bond formation between ionic adsorbates on an Ag(111) surface under ultrahigh vacuum was studied by scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS), and molecular dynamics calculations. The adsorbate, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (trimesic acid, TMA), self-assembles at low temperatures (250-300 K) into the known open honeycomb motif through neutral hydrogen bonds formed between carboxyl groups, whereas annealing at 420 K leads to a densely packed quartet structure consisting of flat-lying molecules with one deprotonated carboxyl group per molecule. The resulting charged carboxylate groups form intermolecular ionic hydrogen bonds with enhanced strength compared to the neutral hydrogen bonds; this represents an alternative supramolecular bonding motif in 2D supramolecular organization.     

Properties of a water layer on hydrophilic and hydrophobic self-assembled monolayer surfaces: A molecular dynamics study

The microscopic behaviors of a water layer on different hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces of well ordered self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are studied by molecular dynamics simulations. The SAMs consist of 18-carbon alkyl chains bound to a silicon(111) substrate, and the characteristic of its surface is tuned from hydrophobic to hydrophilic by using different terminal functional groups ( CH 3 , COOH). In the simulation, the properties of water membranes adjacent to the surfaces of SAMs were reported by comparing pure water in mobility, structure, and orientational ordering of water molecules. The results suggest that the mobility of water molecules adjacent to hydrophilic surface becomes weaker and the molecules have a better ordering. The distribution of hydrogen bonds indicates that the number of water-water hydrogen bonds per water molecule tends to be lower. However, the mobility of water molecules and distribution of hydrogen bonds of a water membrane in hydropho- bic system are nearly the same as those in pure water system. In addition, hydrogen bonds are mainly formed between the hydroxyl of the COOH group and water molecules in a hydrophilic system, which is helpful in understanding the structure of interfacial water.     

Dependence of the number of hydrogen bonds per water molecule on its distance to a hydrophobic surface and a thereupon-based model for hydrophobic attraction

A water molecule in the vicinity of a hydrophobic surface forms fewer hydrogen bonds than a bulk molecule because the surface restricts the space available for other water molecules necessary for its hydrogen-bonding. In this vicinity, the number of hydrogen bonds per water molecule depends on its distance to the surface. Considering the number of hydrogen bonds per bulk water molecule (available experimentally) as the only reference quantity, we propose an improved probabilistic approach to water hydrogen-bonding that allows one to obtain an analytic expression for this dependence. (The original version of this approach [Y. S. Djikaev and E. Ruckenstein, J. Chem. Phys. 130, 124713 (2009)] provides the number of hydrogen bonds per water molecule in the vicinity of a hydrophobic surface as an average over all possible locations and orientations of the molecule.) This function (the number of hydrogen bonds per water molecule versus its distance to a hydrophobic surface) can be used to develop analytic models for the effect of hydrogen-bonding on the hydration of hydrophobic particles and their solvent-mediated interaction. Presenting a model for the latter, we also examine the temperature effect on the solvent-mediated interaction of two parallel hydrophobic plates.     

Metal complexes of a phenol-tailed porphyrin with different hydrogen bonds

Hydrogen bonds are very common and important interactions in biological systems, they are used to control the microenvironment around metal centers. It is a challenge to develop appropriate models for studying hydrogen bonds. We have synthesized two metal complexes of the phenol-tailed porphyrin, [Zn(HL)] and [Fe(HL)(C₆H₄(OH)(O))]. X-ray crystallography reveals that the porphyrin functions as a dianion HL^2? and the phenol OH is involved in hydrogen bonds in both structures. In [Zn(HL)], an intramolecular hydrogen bond is formed between the carbonyl oxygen and OH. In [Fe(HL)(C₆H₄(OH)(O))], the unligated O(5) of the ligand is involved in two hydrogen bonds, as a hydrogen bond donor and a hydrogen bond acceptor. The overall electronic effect on the ligand could be very small, with negligible impact on the structure and the spin state of iron(III). The structural differences caused by the hydrogen bonds are also discussed.     

Influence of chlorine substitution on the self-assembly of zinc phthalocyanine

The adsorption and ordering of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and octachloro zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPcCl(8)) on an Ag(111) surface is studied in situ by scanning tunneling microscopy under ultrahigh vacuum. Two-dimensional self-assembled supramolecular domains are observed for these two molecules. We show how substituting chlorine atoms for half of the peripheral hydrogen atoms on ZnPc influences the self-assembly mechanisms. While intermolecular interactions are dominated by van der Waals forces in ZnPc molecular networks, ZnPcCl(8) molecular packing undergoes a sequential phase evolution driven by the creation of C-Cl...H-C hydrogen bonds between adjacent molecules. At the end of this evolution, the final molecular assembly involves all possible hydrogen bonds. Our study also reveals the influence of molecule-substrate interactions through the presence of fault lines generating a stripe structure in the molecular film.     

Disruption of hydrogen bond structure of water near charged electrode surfaces

The understanding of the hydrogen (H) bonded structure of water near charged surfaces is highly relevant in the context of several important areas of research, including electrochemistry, biochemistry, and geology. Past simulation studies have not yielded conclusive answers; while some suggest breakage of H bonds near a charged surface, others argue that H-bonding interactions can stabilize the structure of surface water even in the presence of high electric (E) fields. Recent experiments, on the other hand, suggest a partial breakdown of H-bond structure near a charged electrode. In all these studies, however, the conclusions regarding H bonding were drawn based on the density profile of hydrogen/oxygen atoms near the interface. In the present paper, we investigate this problem using a new theory that explicitly accounts for the influence of E field on the H-bond network of water near the solid-liquid interface. We find that the average number of H bonds per molecule in bulk increases from approximately 3.8 at E<10(5) V/m to approximately 3.95 at E=2x10(9) V/m (suggesting enhancement in H-bond network), while that near the electrode surface decreases from approximately 2.8 to a saturation value of approximately 2.0 (suggesting weakening of H-bond network).     

The hydrogen bonding properties of cytosine: a computational study of cytosine complexed with hydrogen fluoride, water, and ammonia

Density functional theory is used to study the hydrogen bonding pattern in cytosine, which does not contain alternating proton donor and acceptor sites and therefore is unique compared with the other pyrimidines. Complexes between various small molecules (HF, H(2)O, and NH(3)) and four main binding sites in (neutral and (N1) anionic) cytosine are considered. Two complexes (O2(N1) and N3(N4)) involve neighboring cytosine proton acceptor and donor sites, which leads to cooperative interactions and bidendate hydrogen bonds. The third (less stable) complex (N4) involves a single cytosine donor. The final (O2-N3) complex involves two cytosine proton acceptors, which leads to an anticooperative hydrogen bonding pattern for H(2)O and NH(3). On the neutral surface, the anticooperative O2-N3 complex is less stable than those involving bidentate hydrogen bonds, and the H(2)O complex cannot be characterized when diffuse functions are included in the (6-31G(d,p)) basis set. On the contrary, the anionic O2-N3 structure is the most stable complex, while the HF and H(2)O N3(N4) complexes cannot be characterized with diffuse functions. B3LYP and MP2 potential energy surface scans are used to consider the relationship between the water N3(N4) and O2-N3 complexes. These calculations reveal that diffuse functions reduce the conversion barrier between the two complexes on both the neutral and anionic surfaces, where the reduction leads to a (O2-N3) energy plateau on the neutral surface and complete (N3(N4)) complex destabilization on the anionic surface. From these complexes, the effects of hydrogen bonds on the (N1) acidity of cytosine are determined, and it is found that the trends in the effects of hydrogen bonds on the (N1) acidity are similar for all pyrimidines.     

Hydrogen bond lifetime dynamics at the interface of a surfactant monolayer

The dynamics of water near the polar headgroups of surfactants in a monolayer adsorbed at the air/water interface is likely to play a decisive role in determining the physical behavior of such organized assemblies. We have carried out an atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of a monolayer of the anionic surfactant sodium bis(2-ethyl-1-hexyl) sulfosuccinate (aerosol-OT or AOT) adsorbed at the air/water interface. The simulation is performed at room temperature with a surface coverage of that at the critical micelle concentration (78 Angstrom(2)/molecule). Detailed analyses of the lifetime dynamics of surfactant-water (SW) and water-water (WW) hydrogen bonds at the interface have been carried out. The nonexponential hydrogen bond lifetime correlation functions have been analyzed by using the formalism of Luzar and Chandler, which allowed identification of the bound states at the interface and quantification of the dynamic equilibrium between bound and quasi-free water molecules, in terms of time-dependent relaxation rates. It is observed that the water molecules present in the first hydration layer form strong hydrogen bonds with the surfactant headgroups and hence have longer lifetimes. Importantly, it is found that the overall relaxation of the SW hydrogen bonds is faster for those water molecules which form two hydrogen bonds with the surfactant headgroups than those forming one such hydrogen bond. Equally interestingly, it is further noticed that water molecules beyond the first hydration layer form weaker hydrogen bonds than pure bulk water.     

Restructuring the crystalline cellulose hydrogen bond network enhances its depolymerization rate

Conversion of lignocellulose to biofuels is partly inefficient due to the deleterious impact of cellulose crystallinity on enzymatic saccharification. We demonstrate how the synergistic activity of cellulases was enhanced by altering the hydrogen bond network within crystalline cellulose fibrils. We provide a molecular-scale explanation of these phenomena through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and enzymatic assays. Ammonia transformed the naturally occurring crystalline allomorph I(β) to III(I), which led to a decrease in the number of cellulose intrasheet hydrogen bonds and an increase in the number of intersheet hydrogen bonds. This rearrangement of the hydrogen bond network within cellulose III(I), which increased the number of solvent-exposed glucan chain hydrogen bonds with water by ~50%, was accompanied by enhanced saccharification rates by up to 5-fold (closest to amorphous cellulose) and 60-70% lower maximum surface-bound cellulase capacity. The enhancement in apparent cellulase activity was attributed to the "amorphous-like" nature of the cellulose III(I) fibril surface that facilitated easier glucan chain extraction. Unrestricted substrate accessibility to active-site clefts of certain endocellulase families further accelerated deconstruction of cellulose III(I). Structural and dynamical features of cellulose III(I), revealed by MD simulations, gave additional insights into the role of cellulose crystal structure on fibril surface hydration that influences interfacial enzyme binding. Subtle alterations within the cellulose hydrogen bond network provide an attractive way to enhance its deconstruction and offer unique insight into the nature of cellulose recalcitrance. This approach can lead to unconventional pathways for development of novel pretreatments and engineered cellulases for cost-effective biofuels production.     

Nuclear quantum effect on the hydrogen-bonded structure of guanine�Ccytosine pair

The structure of Watson?CCrick type guanine?Ccytosine (G?CC) base pair has been studied by classical hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) and quantum path integral hybrid Monte Carlo (PIHMC) simulations on the semiempirical PM6 potential energy surface. For the three NH?X hydrogen-bonded moieties, the intramolecular NH bonds are found systematically longer while the H?X distance shorter in the PIHMC simulation than in the HMC simulation. We found that the hydrogen bonded length N?X correlates with the H?X distance, but not with the NH distance. A correlation is also between the neighboring hydrogen bonds in the G?CC base pair.
