Quantum chemical study of nickel(II) complexes with cyclic diimine ligands on the base of bis[3,3′-iminopropyl]methylamine

A quantum chemical study of spatial and electronic structures of molecules in the frame complexes, bis[3,3′(RR′)-ketiminepropyl]methylamine nickel dichlorides, where R = H, CH₃, and R′ = H, CH₃, has been performed by DFT(B3LYP/LANL2DZ) method. The molecules of these complexes were found to be in a triplet state. Energy stability of the endo form of the complex molecules was shown. In the molecule of bis[3,3′-aldiminopropyl]methylamine nickel dichloride (R = R′ = H), a considerable strengthening of the bond Ni-N(amine) takes place when passing from the diamagnetic into paramagnetic state, and all bonds Ni-N become equivalent with respect to interatomic distance values. The topology analysis of the electron density for the complexes with R = R′ =H and R = R′ = CH₃ was carried out. It is stated that all Ni-N bonds are covalent in the molecules of paramagnetic complexes.     

Chemistry of the phenoxathiins and isosterically related heterocycles. XXXII . The synthesis of 2-azathianthrene and selected analogs

The synthesis of 2-azathianthrene ([1,4]benzodithiino[2,3-c]pyridine), the only remaining monoazathianthrene yet to be reported, is described. Attempts at the direct condensation of disubstituted pyridines with the dianion of 1,2-dimercaptobenzene were generally unsuccessful requiring that the alternative condensation of the dianion with disubstituted pyridine 1-oxides be employed. The title compound was characterized by physical means including ¹³C-nmr spectroscopy. One analog, 4-nitro-2-azathianthrene was also studied by X-ray crystallographic means; the molecule crystallized with two molecules in the asymmetric unit P2₁/n, a = 20.712(3), b = 7.8109(13), c = 13.720(2)Å, β = 107.880(11)°, Z = 8, the data refined to a final R = 0.051 for 3061 reflections. Dihedral angles between the planes of the phenyl rings were 135.00(13) and 132.52(13)° for the two independent molecules contained in the crystal. Close non? bonded S ?O intramolecular contacts were observed in both molecules between the sulfur and nitro-group oxygens. Both nitro groups are twisted out of the plane of the pyridine ring and are oriented at angles of 28.75 and 38.82° respectively.     

Inclusion of the regioisomeric nitrobenzene derivatives and ferrocene guests by β-cyclodextrin polymer and their transport through the polymer matrix

Host-guest equilibria have been investigated involving inclusion sites of the microparticulate amorphous β-cyclodextrin polymer, β-CDP-25, and a range of redox guests comprising regioisomeric nitrobenzene derivatives and ferrocene. The equilibria were studied by the batch method. Inclusion-governed, Langmuir-type sorption equilibria occurred in the β-CDP-25/guest systems studied in 1:1 (v/v) aqueous methanolic solutions. A 1:1 (host inclusion site)/guest stoichiometry was found and sorption equilibrium constants were determined. The values of the constants changed by a factor of 20 between the most weakly and strongly included guests. Regioselective discrimination of β-CDP-25 was most pronounced with respect to nitrophenols. Transport phenomena of guest molecules in the β-CDP-25 matrix have also been studied. The apparent diffusion coefficients of guest molecules were determined in the β-CDP-25 matrix by chronamperometry at the (β-CDP-25)-PTFE-carbon composite electrodes. These diffusion coefficients were almost four orders of magnitude lower than the corresponding coefficients of guest molecules in solution in the absence of β-CD. The diffusion mechanism was postulated for the guest molecules in the β-CDP-25 matrix, which invoked hopping of the molecules between inclusion sites.     

Controllable formation of nanoscale patterns on TiO2 by conductive-AFM nanolithography

Theoretical investigation on the replacement of CH groups by N atoms in caged structure (CH)8

A molecular design was performed for the caged molecule (CH)8: the replacement of CH groups by N atoms to increase the content of N as well as reduce the content of H. A series of caged molecules were obtained: (CH)xN(8-x) (0 < or = n < or = 8). The studied aspects are as follows: (i) molecular geometries and electronic structures, (ii) the analysis of the electronic structure using natural bond orbital (NBO) and atoms in molecules (AIM), and (iii) some physicochemical properties of studied molecules, such as the dipole moments, IR vibrational spectra, NMR chemical shifts, heats of formation, and relative specific impulses, were provided. Our studies show that these molecules should be a kind of potential and novel energetic material. Our work provides some useful information for the experimental study of these molecules. The effect of the substitution of N atoms for CH groups on the properties of this kind of caged molecule is presented.     

Effects of concentration on the microwave dielectric spectra of aqueous urea solutions

Several models of relaxation for the dielectric spectra of aqueous urea solutions in the microwave region are compared. The spectra are shown to contain two main Debye components arising from the rotational motions of urea and water molecules. Two essentially different concentration regions in urea solutions are identified. The first is characterized by a small increase in the mobility of water molecules (τ₁ = 7.8 ps) and the existence of hydrated urea molecules (τ₂ = 19 ps). Due to the aggregation of urea molecules, the relaxation times for the latter process grow considerably in highly concentrated solutions. At the same time, faster molecular motions (τ₃ = 6 ps) are observed for water molecules.     

Quantum-topological analysis of electron density in azachalcogenene crystals with aromatic substituents

A theoretical study was carried out to investigate the topological characteristics of electron density (DFT B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) ab initio basis set) for molecules and crystal structures of azachalcogenenes with Ar-S-N=S=N-S-Ar and Ar-S-N=S=N-S-Ar aryl substituents. The characteristics of electron density were determined at the critical points (3, ?1) corresponding to the S...S and Se...Se intramolecular contacts, which serve to close the S-N=S=N-S and S-N=S=N-S five-membered rings. The intermolecular interactions in crystals are described from the viewpoint of electron density analysis in the region of S…S, S…N, Se…N, and S…Hal intermolecular short contacts between the atomic pairs of interactant molecules.

The complex consists of a mononuclear [Ni(C11H14Br2N2O)2(H2O)2]2+ cation,two nitrate anions and two acetonitrile molecules. The Ni atom,lying on the inversion centre,is six-coordinated by two Schiff bases and two water molecules to assume an octahedral coordination geometry. The molecules in the crystal are linked through intermolecular hydrogen bonds of N–H…O,N–H…Br,O–H…O,O–H…N and C–H…O to form layers.     

Substituent effect on the structure and properties of dialumene

In this work, we report a theoretical study on molecular structure, and electronic properties of dialumene (ArAl = AlAr, Ar = aryl) and substituted dialumene. The effects of the substituent groups on the structure, electronic properties, ionization potential (IP), electron affinity (EA), and reorganization energy were studied. Theoretical calculations were carried out by density functional theory (DFT) using the B3LYP hybrid function combined with the 6-311 + G(d) basis set. The most intensity electronic transition energy and oscillator strength of molecules were calculated by time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) and shows λ_max blue-shifted in withdrawing electron substituents. Quantum theory of atom in molecules was used for explain of AlAl and AlC bonds in all molecules.     

3D-QSAR and docking studies on 2-arylbenzoxazole and linker-Y transthyretin amyloidogenesis inhibitors

Transthyretin (TTR), a plasma protein with a tetramer structure, could form amyloid fibril associated with several human diseases through the dissociation of tetramer and the misfolding of monomer. These amyloidogenesis can be inhibited by small molecules which bind to the central channel of TTR. A number of small molecules like 2-arylbenzoxazoles (ABZ) analogues are proposed as promising therapeutic strategy to treat amyloidosis. In this work, comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) and docking studies were performed on series of 2-arylbenzoxazoles (ABZ) and linker-Y analogues to investigate the inhibitory activities of TTR amyloidogenesis at atomic level. Significant correlation coefficients for ABZ series (CoMFA, r ² = 0.877, q ² = 0.431; CoMSIA, r ² = 0.836, q ² = 0.447) and those for linker-Y series (CoMFA, r ² = 0.828, q ² = 0.522; CoMSIA, r ² = 0.800, q ² = 0.493) were obtained, and the generated models were validated using test sets. In addition, docking studies on 6 compounds binding to TTR were performed to analyze the forward or reverse binding mode and interactions between molecules and TTR. These results from 3D-QSAR and docking studies have great significance for designing novel TTR amyloidogenesis inhibitors in the future.

The piperidine molecules inthe host permit the inclusion of bulky guest molecules. The spectral featuressuggest that the compounds are similar in structure to the Hofmann-type clathrates.     

Molecular Structure of PrBr3 and HoBr3 According to Simultaneous Electron Diffraction and Mass Spectrometry Experiment

The saturated vapors of praseodymium and holmium tribromides were investigated for the first time by electron diffraction with mass spectral monitoring at 1100(10) and 991(10) K. It is established that the molecules have a pyramidal effective configuration with bond angles Br–Pr–Br = 114.7(10)° and Br–Ho–Br = 115.3(11)°. Given the low deformation vibration frequencies of lanthanide tribromide molecules, the insignificant pyramidality of the r_g configuration may correspond to the planar equilibrium geometry of D_3h symmetry for the molecules. The internuclear distances r_g(Pr–Br) = 2.696(6) and r_g(Ho–Br) = 2.594(5) point to the lanthanide compression effect. The vibration frequencies of PrBr₃ and HoBr₃ molecules were estimated from electron diffraction data.

铕配合物共掺杂电致发光器件效率滚降的延缓

将Alq₃[tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminium]和Eu(TTA)₃phen(TTA=thenoyltrifluoroacetone,phen=1,10-phenanthroline)共掺杂进入主体材料CBP(4,4’-N,N’-dicarbazole-biphenyl)中,我们制作并研究了一系列电致发光器件。经过优化Alq₃的掺杂浓度,在不改变色纯度的情况下,器件的效率滚降被大幅降低并获得了近乎加倍的最大亮度。发光层中的Alq₃分子不仅促进了电子的注入和传输,还延缓了空穴的传输。借助电致发光光谱,我们证实Alq₃分子作为阶梯加速空穴从CBP分子到Eu(TTA)₃phen分子的迁移,从而促进了电子和空穴在Eu(TTA)₃phen分子上的平衡。因此,我们认为器件的效率滚降受到抑制的原因有两点：一是复合区间的加宽,二是Eu(TTA)₃phen分子上空穴和电子的分布更加平衡。

<正> Mr=299.8, triclinic, Pl, a=10.395(2), b=11.191(2), c=14.051(3)A, α=81.80(2), β=89.42(2), r=66.47(1)°, v=1481.4(5)A3, Z=4, μ(MoKα)=3.37 cm-1, F(000)=632, Dx=1.34 g/cm3, room temperature.

There are two molecules in an asymmetric unit and the lengths of dative N→ Si bond for the two molecules are 2.185(4) and 2.177(4)A, respectively. The different conformations were observed due to the rotation of the chloro-methyl groups.     

Variable-energy photoelectron spectroscopy of substituted rhenium and manganese pentacarbonyls: molecular orbital assignments and the interatomic resonant effect

High-resolution variable-energy photoelectron spectra of M(CO)5X [M = Re, X = Re(CO)5, Cl, Br, and I; and M = Mn, X = Mn(CO)5 and Br] are reported. Tunable synchrotron radiation is used to distinguish the Re 5d and Br 4p orbital based peaks for the controversial Re(CO)5Br. Our results provide firm molecular orbital assignments for all of these molecules. The valence orbital in the ordering of ionization energies for M(CO)5Cl (M = Mn and Re) and Mn(CO)5Br is a 1(M-X) > e(X) > b2(M) > e(M); but for M(CO)5I (M = Mn and Re) and Re(CO)5Br the ordering is a1(M-X) > e(M) > b2(M) > e(X). The crossover of the HOMO in the Re molecules due to the change in the halogen electronegativities occurs at Re(CO)5Br. The metal np-->nd resonance is observed for all of these molecules. For molecules like M2(CO)10 (M = Re and Mn) and Mn(CO)5Br, the observation of this np-->nd resonance is useful in assigning the metal nd based orbitals in their valence level spectra. However, for molecules like Re(CO)5X (X = Br and Cl), a np-->nd type resonance is observed on bands arising from both Re 5d and halogen mp based orbitals. This new resonant effect on the ligand-based orbitals is shown to be mainly due to the interatomic resonant effect. The core and valence level chemical shifts of these compounds are treated using Jolly's approach to confirm the assignments for the valence level spectra of some of these molecules. The high-resolution inner valence and core level spectra of these compounds are reported. Broadening of Re 4f, Br 3d, and I 4d core level spectra is discussed. The Auger peaks are observed in the high-resolution, high-intensity Br 3d of Re(CO)5Br and I 4d of Re(CO)5I spectra.

The complex is diamagnetic and is an insulator with a room-temperature conductivity less than 10⁻⁹ s cm⁻¹. The FT-IR spectrum of the BFL-TCNQ complex reveals that the degree of charge transfer between the two component molecules is essentially null.
