High‐performance Flexible Complementary Electrochromic Device Based on Plasma Modified WO3 Nano Hybrids and V2O5 Nanofilm with Low Operation Voltages

Tungsten trioxide‐poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (WO₃‐PEDOT) and tungsten trioxide‐polyfuran (WO₃‐PFu) were prepared by rf rotating plasma polymerization. Electrochromic hybrid thin films were fabricated onto flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET)/ indium tin oxide (ITO) film using electron beam evaporation method. In order to deeply characterize all films, scanning electron microscopy‐energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (SEM‐EDS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques were used. The counter electrode effect on plasma modified WO₃ nano hybrids‐based electrochromic devices (ECDs) was evaluated. By incorporating flexible vanadium pentoxide (V₂O₅) film as counter electrode, complementary ECDs were constructed through combining the hybrid flexible films (WO₃‐PEDOT, WO₃‐PFu) as working electrodes, which exhibit highly efficient electrochromic performance with low voltage operation. Especially, WO₃‐PEDOT/V₂O₅‐based ECD owns a high optical modulation of 61.5 % at 750 nm driven by −1.0 V (coloration) and +1 V (bleaching) with fast response times (coloration time: 13.58 s, bleaching time: 8.07 s) and a high coloration efficiency of 527 cm² C⁻¹. This study can supply useful and efficient avenue for designing flexible complementary electrochromic device for energy‐saving flexible electronics.     

Photo Switchable Two-step Photochromism in a Series of Ln-Phosphonate(Ln=Dy,Gd, Tb,Y) Dinuclear Complexes

Exploring the discrete complexes with multi-step coloration is still a challenge in the field of electron transfer photochromic materials. Herein, we synthesized a series of dinuclear Ln-diphosphonate compounds[Ln=Dy(1); Gd(2); Tb(3); Y(4)] with a remarkably and reversibly photoactive coloration phenomenon. These compounds showed two-step coloration behavior, which were the first discrete architectures in the reported electron transfer photochromic complexes. This two-step coloration phenomenon was originated from the large distortion of H₃-TPT acceptors, which in turn reduced the π-conjugation of electron acceptors and slowed the decay process of electron transfer. The photogenerated stable doublet radicals originated from electron transfer from diphosphonate donor to polypyridine acceptor in these complexes were detected by UV-Vis and electron spin resonance(ESR) spectra. Furthermore, the photogenerated radicals were estimated by direct current magnetic susceptibilities and variable temperature ESR spectra, suggesting the doublet radicals in the dinuclear structure for all the compounds. This work revealed a series of discrete phosphonate-based systems with a multi-step coloration process, providing a new pathway for designing multicolor photochromic materials with potential photoswitching or other applications.     

Symmetry and geometry considerations of atom transfer: deoxygenation of (silox)3WNO and R3PO (R = Me, Ph, (t)Bu) by (silox)3M (M = V, NbL (L = PMe3, 4-picoline), Ta; silox = (t)Bu3SiO)

Deoxygenations of (silox)(3)WNO (12) and R(3)PO (R = Me, Ph, (t)Bu) by M(silox)(3) (1-M; M = V, NbL (L = PMe(3), 4-picoline), Ta; silox = (t)Bu(3)SiO) reflect the consequences of electronic effects enforced by a limiting steric environment. 1-Ta rapidly deoxygenated R(3)PO (23 degrees C; R = Me (DeltaG degrees (rxn)(calcd) = -47 kcal/mol), Ph) but not (t)Bu(3)PO (85 degrees, >2 days), and cyclometalation competed with deoxygenation of 12 to (silox)(3)WN (11) and (silox)(3)TaO (3-Ta; DeltaG degrees (rxn)(calcd) = -100 kcal/mol). 1-V deoxygenated 12 slowly and formed stable adducts (silox)(3)V-OPR(3) (3-OPR(3)) with OPR(3). 1-Nb(4-picoline) (S = 0) and 1-NbPMe(3) (S = 1) deoxygenated R(3)PO (23 degrees C; R = Me (DeltaG degrees (rxn)(calcd from 1-Nb) = -47 kcal/mol), Ph) rapidly and 12 slowly (DeltaG degrees (rxn)(calcd) = -100 kcal/mol), and failed to deoxygenate (t)Bu(3)PO. Access to a triplet state is critical for substrate (EO) binding, and the S --> T barrier of approximately 17 kcal/mol (calcd) hinders deoxygenations by 1-Ta, while 1-V (S = 1) and 1-Nb (S --> T barrier approximately 2 kcal/mol) are competent. Once binding occurs, significant mixing with an (1)A(1) excited state derived from population of a sigma-orbital is needed to ensure a low-energy intersystem crossing of the (3)A(2) (reactant) and (1)A(1) (product) states. Correlation of a reactant sigma-orbital with a product sigma-orbital is required, and the greater the degree of bending in the (silox)(3)M-O-E angle, the more mixing energetically lowers the intersystem crossing point. The inability of substrates EO = 12 and (t)Bu(3)PO to attain a bent 90 degree angle M-O-E due to sterics explains their slow or negligible deoxygenations. Syntheses of relevant compounds and ramifications of the results are discussed. X-ray structural details are provided for 3-OPMe(3) (90 degree angle V-O-P = 157.61(9) degrees), 3-OP(t)Bu(3) ( 90 degree angle V-O-P = 180 degrees ), 1-NbPMe(3), and (silox)(3)ClWO (9).     

Synthesis and Structures of Sb[N(H)(C(6)H(2)(t)Bu(3))](3) and Bi[N(H)(C(6)H(2)(t)Bu(3))](3): Implications for the Steric Limits of Supermesityl Substitution

Syntheses and isolations of the tris(amino)stibine and tris(amino)bismuthine E[N(H)(C(6)H(2)(t)Bu(3))](3) (E = Sb, Bi) from ECl(3) and LiN(H)(C(6)H(2)(t)Bu(3)) are described, together with spectroscopic and structural characterization [crystal data for C(54)H(90)N(3)Sb, M = 903.04, space group P&onemacr;, a = 11.491(5) ?, b = 24.652(7) ?, c = 10.002(5) ?, alpha = 98.38(3) degrees, beta = 96.44(5) degrees, gamma = 77.25(3) degrees, V = 2724(2) ?(3), D(c) = 1.101 Mg/m(3), Z = 2, R = 0.0547; crystal data for C(54)H(90)BiN(3), M = 990.27, space group P&onemacr;, a = 11.511(5) ?, b = 24.785(15) ?, c = 9.981(5) ?, alpha = 98.06(5) degrees, beta = 96.50(4) degrees, gamma = 77.40(5) degrees, V = 2742(2) ?(3), D(c) = 1.200 Mg/m(3), Z = 2, R = 0.0619]. The compounds bear the "bulky" 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl substituent (known as supermesityl or Mes), and their formation is considered in the context of the same reactions for PCl(3) and AsCl(3), which have been previously shown to produce the aminoiminopnictine structures [N(H)(C(6)H(2)(t)Bu(3))]P=N(C(6)H(2)(t)Bu(3)) and [N(H)(C(6)H(2)(t)Bu(3))]As=N(C(6)H(2)(t)Bu(3)). The observations establish the limits of the steric control by the supermesityl substituent and provide qualitative support for the thermodynamic significance of substituent steric strain.     

Tuning the photochromic properties of molybdenum bisphosphonate polyoxometalates

Seven hybrid organic-inorganic bisphosphonate molybdenum(VI) polyoxometalate complexes with the general formula [(Mo(3)O(8))(4)(O(3)PC(C(m)H(2m)NRR'R″)(O)PO(3))(4)](8-) (m = 3; R, R', and R″ = H or CH(3)) and [(Mo(3)O(8))(2)(O)(O(3)PC(C(m)H(2m)NRR'R″)(O)PO(3))(2)](6-) (m = 3 or 4; R, R', and R″ = H or CH(3)) have been synthesized and their structures solved using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. These compounds are made of a {Mo(12)} or a {Mo(6)} inorganic core functionalized by various alkylammonium bisphosphonates, with these ligands differing by the length of their alkyl chains and the number of methyl groups grafted on the N atom. The nature of the counter-cations (Na(+), K(+), Rb(+), Cs(+), and/or NH(4)(+)) constituting these materials has also been modulated. (31)P NMR spectroscopic studies in aqueous media have shown that all the dodecanuclear complexes reported here are stable in solution, whereas for the hexanuclear compounds, a dynamic equilibrium between two isomers has been evidenced, and the corresponding standard thermodynamic parameters determined for one of them. The electrochemical properties of six representative compounds of this family have been investigated. It has been found that the Mo(6+)/Mo(5+) reduction potential is similar for all the polyoxometalates studied. Besides, it is shown that electrochemical cycling is an efficient method for the deposition of these compounds on a surface. The photochromic properties of all the complexes reported herein have been studied in the solid state. Under irradiation in the near ultraviolet (UV), the {Mo(12)} systems shift from white to reddish-brown, while the {Mo(6)} compounds develop a purple coloration. The coloration kinetics has been systematically quantified and the optical band gaps, the salient coloration kinetic parameters and the coloration kinetic half-life times have been determined. This has evidenced that several of these materials develop very strong and rapid UV-induced color changes, with remarkable coloration contrasts. Finally, the optical properties of these systems are discussed in light of several salient parameters as the POM topology, the nature of the grafted bisphosphonate ligand, and the design of the hydrogen-bonding network at the organic-inorganic interface.

An investigation of Staudinger reactions involving cis-1,3,5-triazidocyclohexane and tri(alkylamino)phosphines

The reaction of 1,3,5-cis-triazidocyclohexane with the electron-rich tris(dialkylamino)phosphines P(NMe(2))(3) (1) and N(CH(2)CH(2)NMe)(3)P (2b) in acetonitrile for 3 h furnished the corresponding tris-phosphazides 1,3,5-cis-(R(3)PN(3))(3)C(6)H(9), 3a (R(3)P = 1) and 3b (R(3)P = 2b), in 90% and 92% yields, respectively. The same reaction with the relatively electron-poor tris(dialkylamino)phosphine MeC(CH(2)NMe)(3)P (4) for 2 days gave the tris-iminophosphorane, 1,3,5-cis-(R(3)PN)(3)C(6)H(9), 5a (R(3)P = 4), in 60% yield. Compound 3b is a thermally stable solid that did not lose dinitrogen when refluxed in toluene for 24 h or when heated as a neat sample at 100 degrees C /0.5 Torr for 10 h. By contrast, tris-phosphazide 3a decomposed to the tris-iminophosphorane 1,3,5-cis-(R(3)PN)(3)C(6)H(9), 5b (R(3)P = 1), in 3 h in quantitative yield upon heating to 100 degrees C in toluene. Factors influencing the formation of the phosphazides or the iminophosphoranes in these reactions are discussed. The reaction of 3b with 4 equiv of benzoic acid gave [N(CH(2)CH(2)NMe)(3)P=NH(2)]PhCO(2) ([6bH]PhCO(2)) in quantitative yield along with benzene (56% yield) and dinitrogen. The same reaction with 3a gave [(Me(2)N)(3)P=NH(2)]PhCO(2) ([7aH]PhCO(2)) (quantitative yield), benzene (15% yield), and dinitrogen(.) Treatment of [6bH]PhCO(2) with KO(t)Bu afforded N(CH(2)CH(2)NMe)(3)P=NH (6b) in 40% overall yield. Compound 6b upon treatment with PhCH(2)CH(2)Br produced [6bH]Br in 90% yield along with styrene. The new compounds were characterized by analytical and spectroscopic methods, and selected compounds (3b, 5a, and [6bH]Br) were structured by X-ray crystallography. A special feature of 3b is its capability to function as a starting material for 6b, which was not accessible by other synthetic routes.     

Photolabile protection of alcohols, phenols, and carboxylic acids with 3-hydroxy-2-naphthalenemethanol

Irradiation of alcohols, phenols, and carboxylic acids "caged" with the (3-hydroxy-2-naphthalenyl)methyl group results in fast (k(release) approximately = 10(5) s(-1)) release of the substrates with good quantum (Phi = 0.17-0.26) and chemical (>90%) yields. The initial byproduct of the photoreaction, 2-naphthoquinone-3-methide, reacts rapidly with water (k(H2O) = 144 +/- 11 s(-1)) to produce parent 3-hydroxy-2-naphthalenemethanol. The o-quinone methide intermediate can be also trapped by other nucleophiles or converted into a photostable Diels-Alder adduct with ethyl vinyl ether.     

Imido Complexes Derived from the Reactions of Niobium and Tantalum Pentachlorides with Primary Amines: Relevance to the Chemical Vapor Deposition of Metal Nitride Films

Reactions of niobium and tantalum pentachlorides with tert-butylamine (>/=6 equiv) in benzene afford the dimeric imido complexes [NbCl(2)(N(t)Bu)(NH(t)Bu)(NH(2)(t)Bu)](2) (90%) and [TaCl(2)(N(t)Bu)(NH(t)Bu)(NH(2)(t)Bu)](2) (79%). The niobium complex exists as two isomers in solution, while the tantalum complex is composed of three major isomers and at least two minor isomers. Analogous treatments with isopropylamine (>/=7 equiv) give the monomeric complexes NbCl(2)(N(i)Pr)(NH(i)Pr)(NH(2)(i)Pr)(2) (84%) and TaCl(2)(N(i)Pr)(NH(i)Pr)(NH(2)(i)Pr)(2) (84%). The monomeric complexes are unaffected by treatment with excess isopropylamine, while the dimeric complexes are cleaved to the monomers MCl(2)(N(t)Bu)(NH(t)Bu)(NH(2)(t)Bu)(2) upon addition of excess tert-butylamine in chloroform solution. Treatment of niobium and tantalum pentachlorides with 2,6-diisopropylaniline affords insoluble precipitates of [NH(3)(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3))](2)[NbCl(5)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))] (100%) and [NH(3)(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3))](2)[TaCl(5)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))] (100%), which react with 4-tert-butylpyridine to afford the soluble complexes [4-t-C(4)H(9)C(5)H(4)NH](2)[NbCl(5)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))] (45%) and [4-t-C(4)H(9)C(5)H(4)NH](2)[TaCl(5)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))] (44%). Sublimation of [NbCl(2)(N(t)Bu)(NH(t)Bu)(NH(2)(t)Bu)](2), MCl(2)(N(i)Pr)(NH(i)Pr)(NH(2)(i)Pr)(2), and [NH(3)(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3))](2)[MCl(5)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))] leads to decomposition to give [MCl(3)(NR)(NH(2)R)](2) as sublimates (32-49%), leaving complexes of the proposed formulation MCl(NR)(2) as nonvolatile residues. By contrast, [TaCl(2)(N(t)Bu)(NH(t)Bu)(NH(2)(t)Bu)](2) sublimes without chemical reaction. Analysis of the organic products obtained from thermal decomposition of [NbCl(2)(N(t)Bu)(NH(t)Bu)(NH(2)(t)Bu)](2) showed isobutylene and tert-butylamine in a 2.2:1 ratio. Mass spectra of [NbCl(2)(N(t)Bu)(NH(t)Bu)(NH(2)(t)Bu)](2), [TaCl(2)(N(t)Bu)(NH(t)Bu)(NH(2)(t)Bu)](2), and [NbCl(3)(N(i)Pr)(NH(2)(i)Pr)](2) showed the presence of dimeric imido complexes, monomeric imido complexes, and nitrido complexes, implying that such species are important gas phase species in CVD processes utilizing these molecular precursors. The crystal structures of [4-t-C(4)H(9)C(5)H(4)NH](2)[NbCl(5)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))], [NbCl(3)(N(i)Pr)(NH(2)(i)Pr)](2), [NbCl(3)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))(NH(2)(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))](2), and [TaCl(3)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))(NH(2)(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))](2) were determined. [4-t-C(4)H(9)C(5)H(4)NH](2)[NbCl(5)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))] crystallizes in the space group P2(1)/c with a = 12.448(3) ?, b = 10.363(3) ?, c = 28.228(3) ?, beta = 94.92(1) degrees, V = 3628(5) ?(3), and Z = 4. [NbCl(3)(N(i)Pr)(NH(2)(i)Pr)](2) crystallizes in the space group P2(1)/c with a = 9.586(4) ?, b = 12.385(4) ?, c = 11.695(4) ?, beta = 112.89(2) degrees, V = 1279.0(6) ?(3), and Z = 2. [NbCl(3)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))(NH(2)(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))](2) crystallizes in the space group P2(1)/n with a = 10.285(3) ?, b = 11.208(3) ?, c = 23.867(6) ?, beta = 97.53 degrees, V = 2727(1) ?(3), and Z = 2. [TaCl(3)(N(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))(NH(2)(2,6-(CH(CH(3))(2))(2)C(6)H(3)))](2) crystallizes in the space group P2(1)/n with a = 10.273(1) ?, b = 11.241(2) ?, c = 23.929(7) ?, beta = 97.69(2) degrees, V = 2695(2) ?(3), and Z = 2. These findings are discussed in the context of niobium and tantalum nitride film depositions from molecular precursors.     

Four-coordinate, 14-electron Ru(II) complexes: unusual trigonal pyramidal geometry enforced by bis(phosphino)silyl ligation

Unprecedented diamagnetic, four-coordinate, formally 14-electron (Cy-PSiP)RuX (Cy-PSiP = [κ(3)-(2-R(2)PC(6)H(4))(2)SiMe](-); X = amido, alkoxo) complexes that do not require agostic stabilization and that adopt a highly unusual trigonal pyramidal coordination geometry are reported. The tertiary silane [(2-Cy(2)PC(6)H(4))(2)SiMe]H ((Cy-PSiP)H) reacted with 0.5 [(p-cymene)RuCl(2)](2) in the presence of Et(3)N and PCy(3) to afford [(Cy-PSiP)RuCl](2) (1) in 74% yield. Treatment of 1 with KO(t)Bu led to the formation of (Cy-PSiP)RuO(t)Bu (2, 97% yield), which was crystallographically characterized and shown to adopt a trigonal pyramidal coordination geometry in the solid state. Treatment of 1 with NaN(SiMe(3))(2) led to the formation of (Cy-PSiP)RuN(SiMe(3))(2) (3, 70% yield), which was also found to adopt a trigonal pyramidal coordination geometry in the solid state. The related anilido complexes (Cy-PSiP)RuNH(2,6-R(2)C(6)H(3)) (4, R = H; 5, R = Me) were also prepared in >90% yields by treating 1 with LiNH(2,6-R(2)C(6)H(3)) (R = H, Me) reagents. The solid state structure of 5 indicates a monomeric trigonal pyramidal complex that features a C-H agostic interaction. Complexes 2 and 3 were found to react readily with 1 equiv of H(2)O to form the dimeric hydroxo-bridged complex [(Cy-PSiP)RuOH](2) (6, 94% yield), which was crystallographically characterized. Complexes 2 and 3 also reacted with 1 equiv of PhOH to form the new 18-electron η(5)-oxocyclohexadienyl complex (Cy-PSiP)Ru(η(5)-C(6)H(5)O) (7, 84% yield). Both amido and alkoxo (Cy-PSiP)RuX complexes reacted with H(3)B·NHRR' reagents to form bis(σ-B-H) complexes of the type (Cy-PSiP)RuH(η(2):η(2)-H(2)BNRR') (8, R = R' = H; 9, R = R' = Me; 10, R = H, R' = (t)Bu), which illustrates that such four-coordinate (Cy-PSiP)RuX (X = amido, alkoxo) complexes are able to undergo multiple E-H (E = main group element) bond activation steps. Computational methods were used to investigate structurally related PCP, PPP, PNP, and PSiP four-coordinate Ru complexes and confirmed the key role of the strongly σ-donating silyl group of the PSiP ligand set in enforcing the unusual trigonal pyramidal coordination geometry featured in complexes 2-5, thus substantiating a new strategy for the synthesis of low-coordinate Ru species. The mechanism of the activation of ammonia-borane by such low-coordinate (R-PSiP)RuX (X = amido, alkoxo) species was also studied computationally and was determined to proceed most likely in a stepwise fashion via intramolecular deprotonation of ammonia and subsequent borane B-H bond oxidative addition steps.     

Spectroscopic and kinetic study of the gas-phase CH3I-Cl and C2H5I-Cl adducts

Time-resolved UV-visible absorption spectroscopy has been coupled with UV laser flash photolysis of Cl2/RI/N2/X mixtures (R = CH3 or C2H5; X = O2, NO, or NO2) to generate the RI-Cl radical adducts in the gas phase and study the spectroscopy and reaction kinetics of these species. Both adducts were found to absorb strongly over the wavelength range 310-500 nm. The spectra were very similar in wavelength dependence with lambda(max) approximately 315 nm for both adducts and sigma(max) = (3.5 +/- 1.2) x 10(-17) and (2.7 +/- 1.0) x 10(-17) cm(2) molecule(-1) (base e) for CH3I-Cl and C2H5I-Cl, respectively (uncertainties are estimates of accuracy at the 95% confidence level). Two weaker bands with lambda max approximately 350 and 420 nm were also observed. Over the wavelength range 405-500 nm, where adduct spectra are reported both in the literature and in this study, the absorption cross sections obtained in this study are a factor of approximately 4 lower than those reported previously [Enami et al. J. Phys. Chem. A 2005, 109, 1587 and 6066]. Reactions of RI-Cl with O2 were not observed, and our data suggest that upper limit rate coefficients for these reactions at 250 K are 1.0 x 10(-17) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) for R = CH3 and 2.5 x 10(-17) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) for R = C2H5. Their lack of reactivity with O2 suggests that RI-Cl adducts are unlikely to play a significant role in atmospheric chemistry. Possible reactions of RI-Cl with RI could not be confirmed or ruled out, although our data suggest that upper limit rate coefficients for these reactions at 250 K are 3 x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) for R = CH3 and 5 x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) for R = C2H5. Rate coefficients for CH3I-Cl reactions with CH3I-Cl (k9), NO (k22), and NO2 (k24), and C2H5I-Cl reactions with C2H5I-Cl (k14), NO (k23), and NO2 (k25) were measured at 250 K. In units of 10(-11) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), the rate coefficients were found to be 2k9 = 35 +/- 12, k22 = 1.8 +/- 0.4, k24 = 3.3 +/- 0.6, 2k14 = 40 +/- 16, k23 = 1.8 +/- 0.3, and k25 = 4.0 +/- 0.9, where the uncertainties are estimates of accuracy at the 95% confidence level.     

Quantum chemical and statistical rate study of the reaction of O(3P) with allene: O-addition and H-abstraction channels

The lowest-lying triplet and singlet potential energy surfaces for the O(3P) + CH2=C=CH2 reaction were theoretically characterized using the complete basis set model chemistry, CBS-QB3. The primary product distributions for the multistate multiwell reactions on the individual surfaces were then determined by RRKM statistical rate theory and weak-collision master equation analysis using the exact stochastic simulation method. The results predict that the electrophilic O-addition pathways on the central and terminal carbon atom are dominant up to combustion temperatures. Major predicted end-products for the addition routes include CO + C2H4, 3CH2 + H2CCO, and CH2=C*-CHO + H*, in agreement with experimental evidence. CO + C2H4 are mainly generated from the lowest-lying singlet surface after an intersystem crossing process from the initial triplet surface. Efficient H-abstraction pathways are newly identified and occur on two different electronic state surfaces, 3A' and 3A', resulting in OH + propargyl radicals; they are predicted to play an important role at higher temperatures in hydrocarbon combustion chemistry and flames, with estimated contributions of ca. 35% at 2000 K. The overall thermal rate coefficient k(O + C3H4) at 200-1000 K was computed using multistate transition state theory: k(T) = 1.60 x 10(-17) x T (2.05) x exp(-90 K/T) cm3 molecule(-1) s(-1), in good agreement with experimental data available for the 300-600 K range.     

Sterically hindered and robust pnictogen ligands derived from carboranes: synthesis and X-ray structure determination of tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))phosphine, tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))arsine and chloro(tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))phosphine)gold(I)

Sterically hindered phosphine and arsine ligands derived from ortho-carborane were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography. Tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))phosphine, 2 (crystal data, hexagonal, space group P6(3), a = b = 12.251(3) A, c = 11.514(4) A, alpha = beta = 90 degrees, gamma = 120 degrees, V = 1496.6(7) A(3), Z = 2, R(1) = 0.0568) and tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))arsine, 3 (crystal data, hexagonal, space group P6(3), a = b = 12.330(3) A, c = 11.474(4) A, alpha = beta = 90 degrees, gamma = 120 degrees, V = 1510.7(7) A(3), Z = 2, R(1) = 0.0930) were prepared in 82% and 68% yield, respectively. The phosphine ligand is resistant to air-oxidation but was converted to corresponding oxide when heated with hydrogen peroxide. The tertiary carboranyl phosphine reacted with (Tht)AuCl to yield chloro(tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))phosphine)gold(I), 4 (crystal data, monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, a = 19.101(4) A, b = 12.167(2) A, c = 13.846(3) A, alpha = gamma = 90 degrees, beta = 91.13(3) degrees, V = 3217.2(11) A(3), Z = 4, R(1) = 0.0396) in 82% yield. From the X-ray structure of the gold complex, the cone angle of the phosphine was determined to be 213(2) degrees, which is among the largest values reported to date.

由于缺乏可控的成膜技术,三亚苯类金属有机框架(MOFs)材料的应用受到了限制。我们在气液界面组装了不同厚度的Ni₃(HITP)₂薄膜(HITP^3-=2,3,6,7,10,11-六亚氨基三亚苯),并将制备的薄膜转移到导电玻璃表面。利用X射线衍射(XRD)、场发射透射电子显微镜(FETEM)、场发射扫描电镜(FESEM)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)和拉曼光谱对样品的晶体结构、微观形貌和元素组成进行表征,采用紫外可见分光光度计以及电化学工作站对Ni₃(HITP)₂薄膜的电化学和电致变色性能进行了研究和表征。结果表明,得益于Ni₃(HITP)₂电致变色薄膜的多孔结构和与电解液良好的接触,所得薄膜电极N-20具有较短的着色响应时间/褪色响应时间(0.6/0.7 s),且着色效率可达530 cm²·C^-1;而N-50具有较大的光调制范围(740 nm,70%)。     

QSAR and CoMFA Study of Cocaine Analogs: Crystal and Molecular Structure of (–)-Cocaine Hydrochloride and N-Methyl-3β-(p-Fluorophenyl)Tropane-2β-Carboxylic Acid Methyl Ester

A QSAR and CoMFA study including 78 cocaine analogs has been completed. These analogs have varied functional groups on the 2 and 3 positions of the tropane ring and include various stereoisomers. The CoMFA program was used to calculate the steric and electrostatic interaction energies as a probe atom or probe charge interacts with the molecules. Shaded contour maps show regions of the cocaine analogs where an increase in bulky substituents is desirable for increased pharmacological activity. The maps also show that small electronegative substituents on the phenyl ring are favored for enhanced activity. The X-ray crystal structures of (–)-cocaine hydrochloride (1) and N-methyl-3-(p-fluorophenyl)tropane-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (2) are reported. These molecules are mostly rigid except for some rotational flexibility in the orientation of the phenyl and benzoyl functional groups. Crystallographic data: (1) C₁₇H₂₁NO₄·HCl, orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁, a = 7.622(1)Å, b = 10.285(1)Å, c = 21.428(3)Å, Z = 4, final R = 0.035 for 960 observed reflections (I>3(I)). (2) C₁₆H₂₀FNO₂, monoclinic space group C2, a = 22.572(7)Å, b = 5.810(1)Å, c = 15.752(4)Å, = 133.65(2)°, Z = 4, final R = 0.059 for 1511 observed reflections (I>3(I)).     

Determination of palladium in gasoline by neutron activation analysis and automated column extraction

Palladium in gasoline was determined by means of neutron activation analysis (NAA) and selective sorbent extraction. Unleaded gasoline consistent with DIN EN 228, RON 95 was irradiated at a thermal neutron flux of phith = 1.68 x 10(13)s(-1)cm(-2) and an epithermal neutron flux of 3.32 x 10(11)s(-1)cm(-2) for t(irr) = 12 h. The irradiated gasoline was digested with nitric acid and palladium was then separated as N,N-diethyl-N'-benzoylthiourea complex by an automated column pre-concentration procedure. The eluate of 50 microL was dried on a filter paper and the 88.03 keV photons resulting from the decay of 109Pd were detected in a low level HPGe spectrometer with an efficiency of 35.5%. Severe interferences with other matrix constituents, especially 82Br could be overcome and the detection limit for palladium was improved to 3.4 ng/L at a confidence level of 90%. Although the analytical procedure applied yielded the lowest detection limit for palladium obtained in gasoline up to now, no indications for the presence of palladium were found.     

Asymmetric transformation of a double-stranded, dicopper(I) helicate containing achiral bis(bidentate) Schiff bases

Reactions of the bis(bidentate) Schiff-bases N,N'-bis(6-alkyl-2-pyridylmethylene)ethane-1,2-diamine (where alkyl = H, Me, iPr) (L) with tetrakis(acetonitrile)copper(I) hexafluorophosphate and silver(I) hexafluorophosphate afforded, respectively, the double-stranded, dinuclear metal helicates [T-4-(R,R)]-(+/-)-[M2L2](PF6)2 (M = Cu, Ag). The helicates were characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, conductivity, microanalysis, and single-crystal X-ray structure determinations on selected compounds. Intermolecular ligand exchange and intramolecular inversion rates for the complexes were investigated by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Reversible intermolecular ligand exchange between two differently substituted helicates followed first-order kinetics. The rate constants (k) and corresponding half-lives (t(1/2)) for ligand exchange for the dicopper(I) helicates were k = (1.6-1.8) x 10(-6) s(-1) (t(1/2) = 110-120 h) in acetone-d6, k = 4.9 x 10(-6) s(-1) (t(1/2) = 40 h) in dichloromethane-d2, and k > 2 x 10(-3) s(-1) (t(1/2) < 5 min) in acetonitrile-d3. Ligand exchange for the disilver(I) helicates occurred with k > 2 x 10(-3) s(-1) (t(1/2) < 5 min). Racemization of the dicopper(I) helicate by an intramolecular mechanism was investigated by determination of the coalescence temperature for the diastereotopic isopropyl-Me groups in the appropriate complex, and DeltaG() > 76 kJ mol(-1) was calculated for the process in acetone-d6, nitromethane-d3, and dichloromethane-d2 with DeltaG() = 75 kJ mol(-1) in acetonitrile-d3. Complete anion exchange of the hexafluorophosphate salt of a dicopper(I) helicate with the enantiomerically pure Delta-(-)-tris(catecholato)arsenate(V) ([As(cat)3]-) in the presence of Dabco gave the two diastereomers (R,R)-[Cu2L2][Delta-(-)-[As(cat)3]]2 and (S,S)-[Cu2L2][Delta-(-)-[As(cat)3]]2 in up to 54% diastereomeric excess, as determined by (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The diastereomerically and enantiomerically pure salt (R,R)-[Cu(2)L2][Delta-(-)-[As(cat)3]]2 crystallized from the solution in a typical second-order asymmetric transformation. The asymmetric transformation of the dicopper(I) helicate is the first synthesis of a diastereomerically and enantiomerically pure dicopper(I) helicate containing achiral ligands.     

Investigations of the TeCl(4)-(t)BuNHLi Reaction: Synthesis, X-ray Structures, and Fluxional Behavior of the Tellurium-Nitrogen Compounds [Li(2)Te(N(t)Bu)(3)](2), {[LiTe(N(t)Bu)(2)(NH(t)Bu)](2)LiCl}(2), and {Te(2)(N(t)Bu)(4)[LiTe(N(t)Bu)(2)(NH(t)Bu)]LiCl}(2)

The reaction of (t)BuNHLi with TeCl(4) in toluene at -78 degrees C produces (t)BuNTe(&mgr;-N(t)Bu)(2)TeN(t)Bu (1) (55%) or [((t)BuNH)Te(&mgr;-N(t)Bu)(2)TeN(t)Bu]Cl (2) (65%) for 4:1 or 7:2 molar ratios, respectively. The complex {Te(2)(N(t)Bu)(4)[LiTe(N(t)Bu)(2)(NH(t)Bu)]LiCl}(2) (5) is obtained as a minor product (23%) from the 4:1 reaction. It is a centrosymmetric dimer in which each half consists of the tellurium diimide dimer 1 bonded through an exocyclic nitrogen atom to a molecule of LiTe(N(t)Bu)(2)(NH(t)Bu) which, in turn, is linked to a LiCl molecule. Crystals of 5 are monoclinic, of space group C2/c, with a = 27.680(6) ?, b = 23.662(3) ?, c = 12.989(2) ?, beta = 96.32(2) degrees, V = 8455(2) ?(3), and Z = 4. The final R and R(w) values were 0.046 and 0.047. At 65 degrees C in toluene solution, 5 dissociates into 1, LiCl, and {[LiTe(N(t)Bu)(2)(NH(t)Bu)](2)LiCl}(2) (4), which may also be prepared by treatment of [Li(2)Te(N(t)Bu)(3)](2) (6) with 2 equiv of HCl gas. The centrosymmetric structure of 6 consists of a distorted hexagonal prism involving two pyramidal Te(N(t)Bu)(3)(2)(-) anions linked by four Li atoms to give a Te(2)N(6)Li(4) cluster. Crystals of 6 are monoclinic, of space group P2(1)/c, with a = 10.194(2) ?, b = 17.135(3) ?, c = 10.482(2) ?, beta = 109.21(1) degrees, V = 1729.0(5) ?(3), and Z = 2. The final R and R(w) values were 0.026 and 0.023. VT (1)H and (7)Li NMR studies reveal that, unlike 1, compounds 2, 4, and 6 are fluxional molecules. Possible mechanisms for these fluxional processes are discussed.
