Sequential protocol for C(sp3)-H carboxylation with CO2: transition-metal-catalyzed benzylic C-H silylation and fluoride-mediated carboxylation

One of the most challenging transformations in current organic chemistry is the catalytic carboxylation of a C(sp(3))-H bond using CO(2) gas, an inexpensive and ubiquitous C1 source. A sequential protocol for C(sp(3))-H carboxylation by employing a nitrogen-directed, metal-assisted, C-H activation/catalytic silylation reaction in conjunction with fluoride-mediated carboxylation with CO(2) was established. The carboxylation proceeded only at the benzylic C(sp(3))-Si bond, not at the aromatic C(sp(2))-Si, which is advantageous for further manipulations of the products.

基于量子化学ONIOM [B3LYP/6-31G(d,p):UFF]计算方法,研究了β分子筛中BrΦnsted酸的落位及其酸性强度.计算采用22T簇模型,得到了不同酸性位的(Al,H)/Si替代能和质子亲和势.研究结果表明,BrΦnsted酸最有可能落位在Al(8)-O(11).Si(4),Al(8)-O(4)-Si(1),Al(7)-O(7)-Si(2)和Al(9)-O(6)-Si(3)位置.根据去质化能的计算,Al(7)-O(7)-Si(2)位置的酸性最强,A1(8)-O(11)-Si(4)的酸性最弱.酸性的强弱顺序为Al(7)-O(7)-Si(2)＞Al(9)-O(6)-Si(3)＞Al(8)-0(4)-Si(1)＞Al(8)-O(11)-Si(4).     

Control of stability through overlap matching: closo-carborynes and closo-silaborynes

The matching of ring and cap orbitals for overlap is used to arrive at the best carborynes among the many possibilities. Accordingly, 1,2-carboranes, 1,2-silaboranes (C2BnHn+2, and Si2BnHn+2, n = 4, 5, 8, and 10), and their dehydrogeno derivatives were studied with use of the Density Functional Theory (B3LYP/6-311+G*). The dehydrogenation of 2,3-C2B5H7 (6a) to 2,3-C2B5H5 (13a) is estimated to be even less endothermic than those of benzene and 1,2- C2B10H12 (1a) to benzyne and 1,2-C2B10H10 (8a) by more than 21 kcal/mol. This is due to the extra stabilization gained through better overlap of the C2B3H3 ring with the 2 BH caps. The relatively larger size of the Si atom leads to overlap requirements in silaboranes that are different from those in carboranes. The lower Si-Si single bond energy and the preference of Si for lower coordination result in unusual structures in dehydrogenosilaboranes. One of the Si atoms moves away from the surface in Si2B10H10 (15), Si2B8H8 (16, 17, and 18), and 1,2-Si2B5H5 (19). One Si atom forms a bridge to a trigonal surface in 2,3-Si2B5H5 (20) and 1,2-Si2B4H4 (21). Estimates of three-dimensional aromaticity with NICS calculations show that the exohedral double bond does not influence three-dimensional aromaticity.

A study was carried out on the reaction of 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane with metal oxides such as CuO, HgO, and Sb₂O₅ in the presence of compounds containing a siloxane bond such as hexamethyldisiloxane, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, and trimethylacetoxysilane, which, at 100–110°C over 0.5–10 h, leads to the formation of linear organyl siloxanes (CH₃-[-Si(CH₃)₂O-]_n-Si(CH₃)₃, CH₃-[-Si(CH₃)₂O-]_n-Si (CH₃)₂H, and H-[-Si(CH₃)₂O-]_n-Si(CH₃)₂H, where n=2–6, and cyclic organylsiloxanes.

Studies on the thermal ring-opening reactions of cis-3,4-bis(organosilyl)cyclobutenes

Three cis-3,4-bis(organosilyl)cyclobutenes were synthesized, and their thermal ring-opening reactions were studied. The ring-opening reaction of cis-3,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)cyclobutene proceeded remarkably faster than that of cis-3,4-dimethylcyclobutene. The significant rate acceleration was explained by assuming (i) stabilization of the transition state by electron delocalization from the cyclobutene HOMO to the Si-CH3 sigma* orbital, (ii) destabilization of the ground state by intramolecular interaction between the C-Si sigma orbitals and the pi orbital of cyclobutene, and (iii) through-space steric repulsion of the two bulky trimethylsilyl groups in a cis arrangement. The ring-opening reaction of unsymmetrical cis-3,4-bis(arylsilyl)cyclobutenes having electronically different arylsilyl groups was also examined. The inward preference increased in the order, p-CH3OC6H4-Si, C6H5-Si, p-CF3C6H4-Si, supporting the interpretation of the origin of the inward preference of silyl substituents on the basis of a stabilizing interaction between the cyclobutene HOMO and the Si-C sigma* orbital at the transition state.

Fabrication and electrical characterisation of the Ti/GaTe/p-Si device under 18 MeV electron irradiation

We deposited GaTe thin films with electrochemical growth technique on p-Si (100) substrate and investigated their structural and electrical properties. The electrical characteristics of the Ti/GaTe/p-Si/Al Schottky diode (SD) were determined by means of I–V (current–voltage) and C–V (capacitance–voltage) measurements. The diodes were irradiated with high energy (18 MeV) and low doses (1.38 × 10¹⁰ e^? cm^?2) electrons. The ideality factor values for Ti/GaTe/p-Si/Al structure were calculated as 1.27 and 1.53 and the barrier heights have been obtained as 0.739 and 0.706 eV from I–V measurements before and after each electron irradiations, respectively. Also, the parameters such as built-in potential, Fermi levels, acceptor concentration and barrier height of the Ti/GaTe/p-Si/Al SD have been calculated by the help of C–V measurements before and after each irradiations. The change in parameters was interpreted by the defect formation at the interface due to the electron irradiation.     

Study of H2O and HOCH2CH2OH Adsorption on the Relaxation Surface of β-Si3N4(0001) by Density Functional Theory

Density functional theory (DFT) B3LYP method is used to theoretically investigate the adsorption conformations of H2O and glycol on the relaxation surface of β-Si3N4(0001) with cluster models. For H2O, the most stable structure is that adsorbed through the H atom lying above a N(3) site of the relaxation surface of β-Si3N4(0001); while for glycol, it is the one adsorbed via the H atom lying above the center of Si(2) and N(3) of the same relaxation surface. The adsorption energy, adsorption bond and transfer electrons of the two adsorbed substances prove that glycol is easy to be adsorbed on the relaxation surface of β-Si3N4(0001).

Enhanced Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting of Black Silicon Photoanode with pH-Dependent Copper-Bipyridine Catalysts

Since the water oxidation half-reaction requires the transfer of multi-electrons and the formation of O−O bond, it's crucial to investigate the catalytic behaviours of semiconductor photoanodes. In this work, a bio-inspired copper-bipyridine catalyst of Cu(dcbpy) is decorated on the nanoporous Si photoanode (black Si, b-Si). Under AM1.5G illumination, the b-Si/Cu(dcbpy) photoanode exhibits a high photocurrent density of 6.31 mA cm⁻² at 1.5 V_RHE at pH 11.0, which is dramatically improved from the b-Si photoanode (1.03 mA cm⁻²) and f-Si photoanode (0.0087 mA cm⁻²). Mechanism studies demonstrate that b-Si/Cu(dcbpy) has improved light-harvesting, interfacial charge-transfer, and surface area for water splitting. More interestingly, b-Si/Cu(dcbpy) exhibits a pH-dependent water oxidation behaviour with a minimum Tafel slope of 241 mV/dec and the lowest overpotential of 0.19 V at pH 11.0, which is due to the monomer/dimer equilibrium of copper catalyst. At pH ∼11, the formation of dimeric hydroxyl-complex could form O−O bond through a redox isomerization (RI) mechanism, which decreases the required potential for water oxidation. This in-depth understanding of pH-dependent water oxidation catalyst brings insights into the design of dimer water oxidation catalysts and efficient photoanodes for solar energy conversion.
