Chlorosomes are one of the most unique natural light‐harvesting antennas and their supramolecular nanostructures are still under debate. Chlorosomes contain bacteriochlorophyll (BChl)‐c, d and e molecules and these pigments self‐aggregate under a hydrophobic environment inside a chlorosome. The self‐aggregates are mainly constructed by the following three interactions: hydrogen bonding, coordination bonding and π–π stacking. Supramolecular nanostructures of self‐aggregated BChls have been widely investigated by spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. Model compounds of such chlorosomal BChl molecules have been synthesized and the effects of esterified long alkyl chains at the 17‐propionate residue for their self‐aggregation have been studied. Structurally simple zinc chlorophyll derivatives possessing an oligomethylene chain as the esterifying group at the 17‐propionate residue were prepared as chlorosomal BChl models. The synthetic zinc BChls self‐aggregated in nonpolar organic solvents to give precipitates. The resulting insoluble self‐aggregated solids were investigated on a variety of substrates, including hydrophobic, neutral and hydrophilic substrates, by visible absorption, circular dichroism and polarized light absorption spectroscopies, as well as atomic force, transmission electron and scanning electron microscopies. The self‐aggregates of synthetic Zn‐BChls formed rods with an approximately 5 nm diameter and wires with further elongated growth of the rods (aspect ratio >200). The diameter size was consistent with that estimated for natural chlorosomal rods in a filamentous anoxygenic phototroph, Chloroflexus aurantiacus. The supramolecular formation and stability of the rod on the examined substrates depended on the length of an oligomethylene chain at the 17‐propionate residue as well as on the surface properties. Especially, the number of the 5 nm rods on the substrates increased with an elongation of the chain. 相似文献

Esterifying chains of chlorophyllous pigments play important roles in the formation of photosynthetic supramolecules, but their effects have not thoroughly been unraveled yet. Substitution of the esterifying chains in these pigments will be one possible strategy to elucidate this enigma. Recently, unnatural bacteriochlorophylls (BChls) c possessing a hydroxy group at the terminus of the esterifying chains were successfully biosynthesised in the green sulfur bacterium Chlorobaculum (Cba.) tepidum grown by supplementation of α,ω-diols. In this paper, in vitro assembling behaviours of unnatural BChls c isolated from Cba. tepidum grown with 1,8-octanediol, 1,12-dodecanediol and 1,16-hexadecanediol were characterised in aqueous Triton X-100 micelles to investigate the effects of the terminal hydroxy group in the esterifying chains of BChls c on self-aggregates such as chlorosomes, major antenna complexes in green photosynthetic bacteria. The bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) c derivatives monoesterified with α,ω-diols formed chlorosomal self-aggregates, but their formations were much slower than those of natural BChl c. The Qy absorption bands of the residual monomers of these BChl c derivatives were larger than those of natural BChl c. These suggest that the esterifying α,ω-diols in these unnatural BChls c somewhat interfered with formation of chlorosome-like aggregates compared with the natural esterifying farnesol. 相似文献

Dissociation equilibria of 4‐(2‐pyridylazo) resorcinol (PAR) in aqueous micellar solutions were determined spectrophotometrically at 25 °C and at the constant ionic strength I = 0.1 M KNO3. For this purpose, the effect of nonionic (Brij‐35, Triton X‐100, Triton X‐114, Triton X‐405), and anionic (SDS) surfactants on the absorption spectra of PAR at different pH values was studied. Results show that the pKa values and pure spectra of each species of PAR are influenced by percentages of a neutral and an anionic surfactant such as Brij‐35, Triton X‐100, Triton X‐114, Triton X‐405 and SDS, respectively, added to the solution of this reagent. 相似文献

Zinc bacteriochlorophyll‐d analogs possessing an amino group instead of the original hydroxy group at the C31 position were prepared by chemical modification of naturally occurring chlorophyll‐a. The synthetic 31‐epimers were successfully separated by reverse phase HPLC to give diastereomerically pure samples. The stereochemistry of the chiral C31‐center in the separated amines was determined by NMR analysis of their diastereomeric amides as well as by their asymmetric synthesis from authentic stereoisomers. Both the epimers were monomeric in tetrahydrofuran to give sharp electronic absorption bands, while they self‐aggregated to form chlorosomal oligomers with the redshifted bands in an aqueous Triton X‐100 micelle solution (pH = 6.9). The resulting oligomers deaggregated by addition of p‐toluenesulfonic acid to give monomeric N‐protonated ammonium species. The aggregation and deaggregation were dependent on the 31‐stereochemistry, indicating that each epimer produced supramolecularly different self‐aggregates. 相似文献

The aggregation behavior of two homologs of bacteriochlorophyll c (BChl c) in various media was investigated for the effects of pH and salt, and the corresponding structures were analyzed by Fourier transform (FT)-IR spectroscopy. R-[P, E] BChl cF (31-R-form of BChl c with a propyl group at the C-8 position and an ethyl group at the C-12 position) and R-[E, E] BChl cF (31-R-form of BChl c with two ethyl groups at positions C-8 and C-12) were isolated from the green sulfur bacterium Chloro-bium limicola. Aggregates of each homolog showed a pH-dependent shift of the absorption maximum; at low pH, the peak moved to the red. This tendency was also revealed by circular dichroic spectra. A similar red shift of the peak was also induced by a high concentration of salt (NaCl) or buffer for both homologs. The FT-IR spectrum indicates that at low pH, both homologs formed a rather amorphous aggregate. On the other hand, a regular structure of R-[P, E] BChl cF was indicated in an acetone-water mixture. This structure was stabilized by a triangular interaction among three pigment molecules through the Mg-OH (3>) O = C (131) linkage. This structure was not found for R-[E, E] BChl cF. These results indicate that the replacement of the side chain at the C-8 position on the macrocycle induces a change in aggregation behavior. A possible heterogeneity of the in vivo rod structure of chlorosomes in green sulfur bacteria is discussed based on the above results. 相似文献

Methyl 131‐(di)cyanomethylene‐pyropheophorbides were synthesized by Knoevenagel reactions of the corresponding 131‐oxo‐chlorins prepared from modifying chlorophyll‐a with malononitrile or cyanoacetic acid. Alternatively, methyl 131‐cyanomethylene‐pyropheophorbides were produced by Wittig reactions of 131‐oxo‐chlorins with Ph3P=CHCN. Self‐aggregation of zinc complexes of the semi‐synthetic chlorophyll derivatives possessing a hydroxy or methoxy group at the 31‐position was examined in 1%(v/v) tetrahydrofuran or dichloromethane and hexane by electronic absorption and circular dichroism spectroscopy. Although intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding between the 31‐hydroxy and 131‐oxo groups of bacteriochlorophylls‐c/d/e/f was essential for their self‐aggregation in natural light‐harvesting antenna systems (=chlorosomes), zinc 31‐hydroxy‐131‐di/monocyanomethylene‐chlorins self‐aggregated in the less/lesser polar organic solvents to form chlorosome‐like large oligomers in spite of lacking the 131‐oxo moiety as the hydrogen‐bonding acceptor. Zinc 31‐methoxy‐131‐dicyanomethylene‐chlorin gave similar self‐aggregates regardless of lack of both the 31‐hydroxy and 131‐oxo groups. The present self‐aggregation was ascribable to stronger coordination of the 31‐oxygen atom to the central zinc than the conventional systems, where the electron‐withdrawing cyano group(s) increased the coordinative ability of the central zinc through the chlorin π‐system. 相似文献

The electronic absorption, fluorescence, and excitation spectra of furo[3,4‐c]furanone ( 1 ) have been measured in different solvents at different concentrations. We observed a complex dependence of absorption and excitation spectra as a function of the concentration in CH2Cl2 and THF due to aggregate formation. Interestingly, the fluorescence spectra were not affected. Resolving the puzzle was made possible by the fact that 1 fits perfectly into the channels of zeolite L (ZL) microcrystals to form 1 –ZL guest–host composites. The geometry of the ZL channel system ensures a well‐defined orientation of the embedded dye molecules, thereby leading to a preferred orientation of their electronic transition dipole moment (ETDM) and thus to objects with pronounced optical anisotropy properties. This enabled us to understand that in solution the monomers that are present at low concentration form an aggregate in which the molecules sit on top of each other and arrange into a J‐type aggregate configuration at higher concentrations. The signature of the latter is observed in the 1 –ZL composites. This seems to be the first example in which the insertion of molecules into a nanochannel microcrystal has helped in understanding the weak intermolecular interactions that take place in solution. 相似文献

The unique self‐assembling features of N‐annulated perylene bisimides (PBIs) 1 and 2 are reported. The stability of the aggregates of diester 1 , in which no H‐bonding interactions are operative, corroborates the significance of long‐range van der Waals and dipole–dipole electrostatic interactions in the construction of stable supramolecular assemblies. The incorporation of amide functional groups within the N‐annulated PBI in 2 stimulates pathway differentiation to achieve up to three J‐type aggregates and a fourth H‐type aggregate depending on the experimental conditions. The results presented demonstrate unprecedented levels of control over synthetic supramolecular self‐assembly and the rich differentiation that N‐annulated PBIs exhibit, opening the door to new, complex, functional supramolecular materials. 相似文献

The self‐assembly of poly(ethylidene acetate) (st‐PEA) into van der Waals‐stabilized liquid‐crystalline (LC) aggregates is reported. The LC behavior of these materials is unexpected, and unusual for flexible sp3‐carbon backbone polymers. Although the dense packing of polar ester functionalities along the carbon backbone of st‐PEA could perhaps be expected to lead directly to rigid‐rod behavior, molecular modeling reveals that individual st‐PEA chains are actually highly flexible and should not reveal rigid‐rod induced LC behavior. Nonetheless, st‐PEA clearly reveals LC behavior, both in solution and in the melt over a broad elevated temperature range. A combined set of experimental measurements, supported by MM/MD studies, suggests that the observed LC behavior is due to self‐aggregation of st‐PEA into higher‐order aggregates. According to MM/MD modeling st‐PEA single helices adopt a flexible helical structure with a preferred trans‐gauche syn‐syn‐anti‐anti orientation. Unexpectedly, similar modeling experiments suggest that three of these helices can self‐assemble into triple‐helical aggregates. Higher‐order assemblies were not observed in the MM/MD simulations, suggesting that the triple helix is the most stable aggregate configuration. DLS data confirmed the aggregation of st‐PEA into higher‐order structures, and suggest the formation of rod‐like particles. The dimensions derived from these light‐scattering experiments correspond with st‐PEA triple‐helix formation. Langmuir–Blodgett surface pressure–area isotherms also point to the formation of rod‐like st‐PEA aggregates with similar dimensions as st‐PEA triple helixes. Upon increasing the st‐PEA concentration, the viscosity of the polymer solution increases strongly, and at concentrations above 20 wt % st‐PEA forms an organogel. STM on this gel reveals the formation of helical aggregates on the graphite surface–solution interface with shapes and dimensions matching st‐PEA triple helices, in good agreement with the structures proposed by molecular modeling. X‐ray diffraction, WAXS, SAXS and solid state NMR spectroscopy studies suggest that st‐PEA triple helices are also present in the solid state, up to temperatures well above the melting point of st‐PEA. Formation of higher‐order aggregates explains the observed LC behavior of st‐PEA, emphasizing the importance of the “tertiary structure” of synthetic polymers on their material properties. 相似文献

Bacteriochlorophyll c (BChl c) solid films were prepared from a carbon tetrachloride solution on CaF2 plates as artificial aggregates. Effects of organic vapor such as acetone and tetrahydrofuran (THF) on the BChl c films were studied by absorption and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Two major homologs (R[E,E]BChl cF and R[P,E]BChl cF) and one minor homolog (S[I,E]BChl c) isolated from the green photosynthetic bacterium Chlorobium limicola strain 6230 were examined for the experiments. The BChl c polymeric aggregates absorbing at739–753 nm similar to those in the chlorosome were induced for all homologs upon the treatment of BChl c solid film with acetone vapor. The 131-keto C=O stretching band in the R[E,E]BChl cF solid film showed a downward shift from 1651 cm?1to 1643 cm?1 with a concomitant shift of the 31-OH stretching bands from 3337 and 3238 cm?1 to 3163 cm?1. It was suggested that the lower aggregates brought about by Mg…O=C(131) and (31)O…O=C(131) bonds were transformed into the higher aggregates strongly hydrogen-bonded in a Mg…(31)O-H…O=C(13l) interaction. They were transformed to a monomer-like form absorbing at 667 nm upon exposure to THF vapor and were reversibly converted to the higher aggregates upon removal of THF molecules in vacuo. 相似文献

A series of symmetric and asymmetric benzo[c,d]indole‐containing aza boron dipyrromethene (aza‐BODIPY) compounds was synthesized by a titanium tetrachloride‐mediated Schiff‐base formation reaction of commercially available benzo[c,d]indole‐2(1H)‐one and heteroaromatic amines. These aza‐BODIPY analogues show different electronic structures from those of regular aza‐BODIPYs, with hypsochromic shifts of the main absorption compared to their BODIPY counterparts. In addition to the intense fluorescence in solution, asymmetric compounds exhibited solid‐state fluorescence due to significant contribution of the vibronic bands to both absorption and fluorescence as well as reduced fluorescence quenching in the aggregates. Finally, aggregation‐induced emission enhancement, which is rare in BODIPY chromophores, was achieved by introducing a nonconjugated moiety into the core structure. 相似文献

Two triblock polymers, tetraaniline‐block‐poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide)‐block‐poly(hydroxyethyl acrylate) (TA‐b‐PNIPAM‐b‐PHEA) and TA‐b‐PHEA‐b‐PNIPAM, were synthesized with unambiguous structure by a two step method. The difference of these two diblock polymers is the connection order of carboxyl group to block, e.g., carboxyl group to PNIPAM block for PNIPAM‐b‐PHEA and to PHEA block for PHEA‐b‐PNIPAM. Secondly, block tetraaniline was linked to the diblock polymer through amidation to yield the corresponding triblock copolymer. Both of them have almost the identical chemical compositions. The only difference is the connection order of each block in the triblock polymers. When they were self‐assembled at 45°C in a suitable solution, both of their aggregates have spherical shape with slight defects on their surface with the average diameter of about 400 nm. However, when their aggregate dispersion was cooled down to 20°C, only TA‐b‐PHEA‐b‐PNIPAM's morphology changed, forming worm‐like aggregates with the diameter of about 100–200 nm transformed from spherical aggregates. Both amphiphilic property and position of each block in this triblock copolymer are very essential for this morphology transformation. Since the worm‐like aggregates presented here by our group have hollow structure inside, its controlled release properties for doxorubicin were evaluated. Drug release experiment indicated that along with the temperature changes, the rearrangement of the intermediate layer structure caused morphology change in aggregate, thus accelerating the speed of drug release. 相似文献

Three amphiphilic rod‐coil diblock copolymers, poly(2‐ethyl‐2‐oxazoline‐b‐γ‐benzyl‐L ‐glutamate) (PEOz‐b‐PBLG), incorporating the same‐length PEOz block length and various lengths of their PBLG blocks, were synthesized through a combining of living cationic and N‐carboxyanhydride (NCA) ring‐opening polymerizations. In the bulk, these block copolymers display thermotropic liquid crystalline behavior. The self‐assembled aggregates that formed from these diblock copolymers in aqueous solution exhibited morphologies that differed from those obtained in α‐helicogenic solvents, that is, solvents in which the PBLG blocks adopt rigid α‐helix conformations. In aqueous solution, the block copolymers self‐assembled into spherical micelles and vesicular aggregates because of their amphiphilic structures. In helicogenic solvents (in this case, toluene and benzyl alcohol), the PEOz‐b‐PBLG copolymers exhibited rod‐coil chain properties, which result in a diverse array of aggregate morphologies (spheres, vesicles, ribbons, and tube nanostructures) and thermoreversible gelation behavior. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The potential energy curves (PECs) of eight low‐lying electronic states (X1Σ+, a3Π, a′3Σ+, d3Δ, e3Σ?, A1Π, I1Σ?, and D1Δ) of the carbon monoxide molecule have been studied by an ab initio quantum chemical method. The calculations have been performed using the complete active space self‐consistent field method, which is followed by the valence internally contracted multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) approach in combination with the correlation‐consistent aug‐cc‐pV5Z basis set. The effects on the PECs by the core‐valence correlation and relativistic corrections are included. The way to consider the relativistic corrections is to use the third‐order Douglas–Kroll Hamiltonian approximation at the level of a cc‐pV5Z basis set. Core‐valence correlation corrections are performed using the cc‐pCVQZ basis set. To obtain more reliable results, the PECs determined by the MRCI calculations are corrected for size‐extensivity errors by means of the Davidson modification (MRCI+Q). The spectroscopic parameters (De, Te, Re, ωe, ωexe, ωeye, Be, αe, and γe) of these electronic states are calculated using these PECs. The spectroscopic parameters are compared with those reported in the literature. Using the Breit–Pauli operator, the spin–orbit coupling effect on the spectroscopic parameters is discussed for the a3Π electronic state. With the PECs obtained by the MRCI+Q/aug‐cc‐pV5Z+CV+DK calculations, the complete vibrational states of each electronic state have been determined. The vibrational manifolds have been calculated for each vibrational state of each electronic state. The vibrational level G(ν), inertial rotation constant Bν, and centrifugal distortion constant Dν of the first 20 vibrational states when the rotational quantum number J equals zero are reported and compared with the experimental data. Comparison with the measurements demonstrates that the present spectroscopic parameters and molecular constants determined by the MRCI+Q/aug‐cc‐pV5Z+CV+DK calculations are both reliable and accurate. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The newly developed oligophenylenevinylene (OPV)‐based fluorescent (FL) chiral chemosensor (OPV‐Me) for the representative enantiomeric guest, 1,2‐cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid (1,2‐CHDA: RR ‐ and SS ‐form) showed the high chiral discrimination ability, resulting in the different aggregation modes of OPV‐Me self‐assembly: RR ‐CHDA directed the fibrous supramolecular aggregate, whereas SS ‐CHDA directed the finite aggregate. The consequent FL intensity toward RR ‐CHDA was up to 30 times larger than that toward SS ‐CHDA. Accordingly, highly enantioselective recognition was achieved. Application to the chirality sensing was also possible: OPV‐Me exhibited a linear relationship between the FL intensity and the enantiomeric excess through the morphological development of stereocomplex aggregates. These results clearly show that the chiral recognition ability is manifested by the amplification cascade of the chirality difference through self‐assembly. 相似文献

We explored the effects of addition of the nonionic surfactant Triton X‐100 on the stability of aggregates of poly(ethylene glycol‐bl‐propylene sulfide) di‐ and triblock copolymers. Fluorescence spectra of pyrene, used as a probe molecule, elucidated the various stages of transformation from pure copolymeric micelles to surfactant‐rich micelles. Turbidity measurements yielded insight into the mechanism of the interaction, the hydrophobicity of the copolymer driving the process. Triton X‐100 tends to strongly interact with highly hydrophobic copolymers by inserting into the core of the micellar aggregates. On the other hand, Triton X‐100 tends to interact with the corona of micelles formed by less hydrophobic copolymers which, for this reason, are more stable upon addition of this destabilizing agent. Kinetic data give evidence that only monomers, not micelles of surfactant, interact with the copolymer micelles. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 2477–2487, 2008 相似文献

The self‐assembly and induced supramolecular chirality of meso‐tetrakis(4‐sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TSPP) on both single‐wall (SWCNT) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) are investigated. Under mild pH conditions (pH 3), TSPP forms aggregates when CNTs are dispersed in an aqueous solution containing positively charged polyelectrolytes such as poly‐L ‐lysine (PLL) or poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH). Evidence for the geometry of the porphyrin aggregates is obtained from absorption spectra, whereby the fingerprints of J‐ and H‐aggregates are clearly seen only in the presence of smaller‐diameter nanotubes. J‐aggregates are better stabilized with PLL, whereas in the presence of PAH mainly H‐aggregates prevail. Excited‐state interactions within these nanohybrids are studied by steady‐state and time‐resolved fluorescence. The porphyrin emission intensity in the nanohybrid solution is significantly quenched compared to that of TSPP alone, and this implies strong electronic interaction between CNTs and porphyrin molecules. Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) further supports that porphyrin arrays are associated with the MWCNT sidewalls wrapped in PLL. In the case of the SWCNT hybrid, spherical structures associated with longer fluorescence lifetime appeared after one week, indicative of H‐aggregates of TSPP. The latter are the result of π–π stacking of porphyrin units on neighboring nanotubes facilitated by the strong tendency of these nanotubes to interact with each other. These results highlight the importance of optimum dimensions and surface‐area architectures of CNTs in the control/stability of the porphyrin aggregates with promising properties for light harvesting. 相似文献

The synthesis, self‐assembly, and gelation ability of a series of organogelators based on perylene bisimide (PBI) dyes containing amide groups at imide positions are reported. The synergetic effect of intermolecular hydrogen bonding among the amide functionalities and π–π stacking between the PBI units directs the formation of the self‐assembled structure in solution, which beyond a certain concentration results in gelation. Effects of different peripheral alkyl substituents on the self‐assembly were studied by solvent‐ and temperature‐dependent UV‐visible and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. PBI derivatives containing linear alkyl side chains in the periphery formed H‐type π stacks and red gels, whereas by introducing branched alkyl chains the formation of J‐type π stacks and green gels could be achieved. Sterically demanding substituents, in particular, the 2‐ethylhexyl group completely suppressed the π stacking. Coaggregation studies with H‐ and J‐aggregating chromophores revealed the formation of solely H‐type π stacks containing both precursor molecules at a lower mole fraction of J‐aggregating chromophore. Beyond a critical composition of the two chromophores, mixed H‐aggregate and J‐aggregate were formed simultaneously, which points to a self‐sorting process. The versatility of the gelators is strongly dependent on the length and nature of the peripheral alkyl substituents. CD spectroscopic studies revealed a preferential helicity of the aggregates of PBI building blocks bearing chiral side chains. Even for achiral PBI derivatives, the utilization of chiral solvents such as (R)‐ or (S)‐limonene was effective in preferential population of one‐handed helical fibers. AFM studies revealed the formation of helical fibers from all the present PBI gelators, irrespective of the presence of chiral or achiral side chains. Furthermore, vortex flow was found to be effective in macroscopic orientation of the aggregates as evidenced from the origin of CD signals from aggregates of achiral PBI molecules. 相似文献
