Trans-5,10-bis(1-bromodifluoroacetyl-l-ethoxycarbonyl-methylidene)thianthrene (1b) was prepared from the reaction of BrCF2COC(N2)CO2Et with thianthrene. X-ray single crystal diffraction analysis showed that the intermolecular halogen bonding and hydrogen bonding coexisted in this compound. The bromine atom acted as an electron acceptor in the halogen bond and an electron donor in the hydrogen bond. It is the first example that the bromine atom acted as such a dual role in the hydrogen and halogen bond.

STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF P(MMA-MAA)/PEO INTERMACROMOLECULAR COMPLEX FORMED THROUGH HYDROGEN BONDING

The superstructure and properties of polymers might be improved and enhanced througl intermolecular complexation. In this paper, the preparation, structure and properties of P(MMA-MAA)/PEO intermolecular complex through hydrogen bonding are studied. By acid hydrolysis of PMMA, a series of P(MMA-MAA) copolymers have been prepared, the MAA content of which depends on the temperature and time of hydrolyzation. In case the MAA content in P(MMA-MAA) is beyond 0.4 mole fraction, the hydrogen bonding between P(MMA-MAA) and PEO is strong enough to form intermolecular complex. The supermolecular structure of the complex is quite different from that of its constituent, which was observed by an X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. The crystallization of PEO is confined owing to complexation. The complex exhibits quite a lot of good properties in thermal stability, gas permeability as well as mechanical strength, and could be used in many fields.     

Studies on the Hydrogen Bonding Network Structures of Amino-konjacglucomannan-zinc Chelate

Amino-Konjacglucomannan(NH2-KGM) was prepared through the reaction of ammonium hydroxide with KGM by ultrasonic. The influence of amount of ammonium hydroxide, concentration of KGM and ultrasonic time on the extent of amination was studied. Then, NH2-KGM and zinc sulfate were used as materials for the preparation of NH2-KGM-Zn complex. The results indicated that the extent of amination increases with increasing the ammonium hydroxide. The optimum concentration of KGM and ultrasonic time are 0.3% and 75 min respectively. IR showed KGM is successfully aminated and NH2-KGM forms stable complex with zinc(Ⅱ). The hydrogen bonding network structures of NH2-KGM-Zn are more stable and the key linking points of hydrogen bonding network are at the OH(6) and O(3) positions of mannose and OH(2) of glucose and O(3) of mannose on the KGM ring. It is more favorable for NH2-KGM-Zn to form intermolecular hydrogen bonds between KGM.

One novel adduct based on aminopyridinium and biphenyl-2,4′-dicarboxylate, C5H7N2+·C14H9O4-, has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray structural study. The compound crystallizes in trigonal, space group P32 with a = 9.2886(16), b = 9.2886(16), c = 16.746(6) , γ = 120°, V = 1251.2(5) 3, C19H16N2O4, Mr = 336.34, Dc = 1.339 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 0.095 mm-1, F(000) = 528, Z = 3, the final R = 0.0438 and wR = 0.1119 for 3097 observed reflections (Ⅰ > 2σ(Ⅰ)).

Intermolecular N-H…O hydrogen bonds link two components generating R22(8) rings which are linked into three one-dimensional chains in the [100], [010] and [110] directions, and these chains are finally arranged into a three-dimensional framework by hydrogen bonds. Investigation of intermolecular interactions via Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that the close contacts are mainly associated with the classical hydrogen bonding interactions. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap of the compound indicates a higher kinetic stability.     

Thiourea Based Tweezer Anion Receptors for Selective Sensing of Fluoride Ions

Three 3,3＇-di（4-substituted-phenyl）-1,1＇-isophthaloylbis（thiourea） compounds were designed as novel neutral anion receptors, and synthesized by simple steps in good yields. The single crystal structure of receptor 1 shows that a solvent molecule was captured by the host molecule through intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Moreover, it was self-assembled as a supramolecular system for the presence of abundant inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bonding and π-π interactions between phenyl groups. Their application as anion receptors has been examined by UV-Vis and ^1H NMR spectroscopy, showing that they had a higher selectivity for fluoride than other halides. The host and guest formed a 1 ： 1 stoichiometry complex through hydrogen bonding interactions in the first step, then following a process of deprotonation in presence of an excess of F^- in the solvent of DMF.

Roles of sigmatropic migration of a benzoyl group and intermolecular hydrogen bonding between a tropone carbonyl and an NH group on the mesomorphic properties of 2-(4-alkoxybenzoyloxy)-5-alkylaminotropones and 5-alkoxy-2-(4-alkylaminobenzoyloxy)tropo

The mesomorphic properties of 2-(4-alkoxybenzoyloxy)-5-alkylaminotropones and 5-alkoxy-2-(4-alkylaminobenzoyloxy)tropones are discussed on the basis of results obtained by X-ray crystallographic and X-ray diffraction studies, as well as temperature-dependent FTIR spectral measurements. The X-ray crystallographic analysis of 2-(4-dodecylaminobenzoyloxy)-5-tetradecyloxytropone (2f) indicated that it formed a head-to-tail dimer through an intermolecular hydrogen bond between the NH and the tropone carbonyl group. The X-ray diffraction study of compound 2f suggested that the molecules formed interdigitated bilayer smectic C phases with a tilt angle of as much as c. 40° to a layer plane. The corresponding benzenoids, however, were non-mesomorphic, with higher melting points than the troponoids. In the troponoids, sigmatropic migration of the benzoyl group weakened the intermolecular hydrogen bonding and assisted the occurrence of mesomorphic properties.

Synthesis, vibrational spectral and nonlinear optical studies of N-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde-imine: a combined experimental and theoretical investigation

The study of imine-bridged organics has been the one hot spot of photo-responsive material sciences in recent years. Herein we make a study of the synthesis, characteristics and potential application of N-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)-2-hydroxy-benzaldehyde-imine (HPHBI), C13H11NO2. The studied compound was synthesized in one step by the condensation reaction of salicylaldehyde and 4-aminophenol in methanol solution, and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, FT-IR and FT-Raman techniques with theoretical calculations at B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. The molecule adopts trans configuration about central CN bond with intramolecular hydrogen bonding, and the adjacent molecules form wave-shaped structure linked by strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding mechanism along b axis. The vibrational spectra have been precisely assigned with the aid of theoretical frequencies. Furthermore, the thermodynamic properties have been obtained by the theoretical vibrational analysis for HPHBI. The total linear polarizability and first-order hyperpolarizabilities calculated on the studied compound respectively present 25.378 ?3 and 1.655×10(-29) cm5/esu, which indicates the compound has relatively good nonlinear optical property.     

Self-assembled 1,2-bis[4-(4-(10-decyloxy)phenylazo)]benzoylhydrazine dimer and its hydrogen-bonded complexes

We report the synthesis and investigation of a new self-assembled benzoylhydrazine-based compound, namely 1,2-bis[4-(4-(10-decyloxy)phenylazo)]benzoylhydrazine and their hydrogen-bonded complexes with different carboxylic acid derivatives, of which some exhibit liquid crystalline properties and some are non-mesogens. The conversion of the non-liquid crystalline target compound that is free from carboxylic acid to liquid crystalline complexes containing various carboxylic acids can probably be rationalised through the breaking of intermolecular hydrogen bonding within the supramolecular assembly by carboxylic acid dopants. The enhancement of liquid crystalline properties of benzoylhydrazine compounds with respect to various carboxylic dopants is documented. Other salient features can be exemplified by the formation of discotic columnar phase as shown by the azo-linkage containing 4-(4′-(10-decyloxy)phenylazo)benzoic acid-doped complex.     

Spectroscopic study of liquid crystalline N-[4-(4-n-alkoxybenzoyloxy)2-hydroxybenzylidene]hydroxyanilines

New homologous series of N-[4-(4-n-alkoxybenzoyloxy)-2-hydroxybenzylidene]hydroxyanilines were synthesized. All 4-hydroxyaniline derivatives exhibited a nematic phase, while 3-hydroxyaniline and 2-hydroxyaniline derivatives exhibited only a nematic phase as the terminal alkoxy group was lengthened. Infrared spectra suggest that the 4-hydroxyaniline derivatives form intermolecular hydrogen bonding of the single bridge type, while the 3-hydroxy and 2-hydroxy derivatives form the polymer type. The Raman band at around 1360 cm^-1 exhibited large differences in intensity among these derivatives. This can be explained by the effect of intermolecular or hydrogen bonding molecular conformation.     

Design and controlled emission properties of bioorganometallic compounds composed of uracils and organoplatinum(II) moieties

The bioorganometallic platinum(II) compounds PtU6 and PtU5 were designed by the conjugation of the corresponding uracil derivative and the organoplatinum(II) compound [4-octyloxy-(C^N^N)PtCl]. The single crystal X-ray structure determination of PtU6 revealed the formation of the dimeric structure through intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the uracil moieties of two independent molecules, wherein each hydrogen-bonded dimer was connected through Pt(II)-Pt(II) and π-π interactions. The tuning of the emission properties of the organoplatinum(II) compounds was achieved by changing the direction of hydrogen bonding sites and the molecular scaffold having two 2,6-dihexamidopyridine moieties as a complementary hydrogen bonding site for the uracil moiety, which depends on the regulation of the aggregated structures, to induce the Pt(II)-Pt(II) and π-π interactions.
