Syntheses,Structural Characterization,Reactivity, and Theoretical Studies on Some Heteroligand Oxoperoxotungstate(VI)

White microcrystalline diamagnetic oxoperoxotungstate(VI) complexes K[WO(O₂)₂F]·H₂O, K₂[WO(O₂)₂(CO₃)]·H₂O, [WO(O₂)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] have been synthesized from reaction of Na₂WO₄·2H₂O with aqueous HF, solid KHCO₃, aqueous H₂SO₄ (W:F⁻ 1:3; W: CO₃ ^{2 −} 1:1; and W: SO₄ ^{2 −} 1:3), and an excess of 30% H₂O₂ at pH 7.5–8. Precipitation was completed by the addition of precooled acetone. The occurrence of terminal WO and triangular bidentate O₂ ^{2 −}(C _{2 v} ) in the synthesized compounds was ascertained from IR spectra. The IR spectra also suggested that the F⁻ and SO₄ ^{2 −} ions in K[WO(O₂)₂F]·H₂O and [WO(O₂)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] were bonded to the WO ⁺⁴ center in monodentate manner, while CO₃ ^{2 −} ion in K₂[WO(O₂)₂(CO₃)]·H₂O binds the metal center in bidentate chelating fashion. The complex [WO(O₂)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] is stable upto 110°C. The water molecule in [WO(O₂)(SO₄)(H₂O)₂] is coordinated to the WO ⁺⁴ center, whereas it occurs as water of crystallization in the corresponding peroxo(fluoro) and peroxo(carbonato) compounds. Mass spectra of the compounds are in good agreement with the molecular formulae of the complexes. K₂[WO(O₂)₂(CO₃)]·H₂O acts as an oxidant for bromide in the aqueous‐phase bromination of organic substrates to the corresponding bromo‐organics, and the complex also oxidizes Hantzsch‐1,4‐dihydropyridine to the corresponding pyridine derivative in excellent yield at room temperature. Density functional theory computation was carried out to compute the frequencies of relevant vibrational modes and electronic properties, and the results are in agreement with the experimentally obtained data.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Physical Properties of the New Chain Alkalioxocuprate K3Cu2O4

Single crystals of K₃Cu₂O₄ were prepared by the azide/nitrate route from respective stoichiometric mixtures of KN₃, KNO₃ and CuO, at 923 K, whereas powder samples were synthesised by solid state reaction of K₂O, KCuO₂ and CuO, sealed in gold ampoules and treated at 723 K. According to the single crystal structure analysis (Cmcm, Z = 4, a = 6.1234(1), b = 8.9826(2), c = 10.8620(2) Å, R₁ = 0.044, R₂ = 0.107), the main structural feature are undulating CuO₂ chains built up from planar, edge sharing CuO₄ square units. From an analysis of the Cu–O bond lengths, the valence state of either +2 or +3 can be unambiguously assigned to each copper atom. The magnetic susceptibilities show the dominance of antiferromagnetic (AFM) interactions. At high temperatures, the magnetic behaviour can be fitted with the Curie–Weiss law (μ_eff = 1.84μ_B, Θ = –105 K). The experimental data can be very well described by a uniform Heisenberg chain with a nearest‐neighbour spin intrachain interaction (J_nn) of ~ 101 K.

The reaction of CsN₃ with GaS and S at elevated temperatures results in Cs₂Ga₂S₅. Its crystal structure was determined from single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction data. The colorless solid crystallizes in space group C2/c (no. 15) with V=1073.3(4) ų and Z=4. Cs₂Ga₂S₅ is the first compound that features one‐dimensional chains ${{{\hfill 1\atop \hfill \infty }}}$ [Ga₂S₃(S₂)^2?] of edge‐ and corner‐sharing GaS₄ tetrahedra. The vibrational band of the S₂^2? units at 493 cm^?1 was revealed by Raman spectroscopy. Cs₂Ga₂S₅ has a wide bandgap of about 3.26 eV. The thermal decomposition of CsN₃ yields elemental Cs, which reacts with sulfur to provide Cs₂S₆ as an intermediate product. The crystal structure of Cs₂S₆ was redetermined from selected single crystals. The red compound crystallizes in space group ${P\bar 1}$ with V=488.99(8) ų and Z=2. Cs₂S₆ consists of S₆^2? polysulfide chains and two Cs positions with coordination numbers of 10 and 11, respectively. Results of DFT calculations on Cs₂Ga₂S₅ are in good agreement with the experimental crystal structure and Raman data. The analysis of the chemical bonding behavior revealed completely ionic bonds for Cs, whereas Ga?S and S?S form polarized and fully covalent bonds, respectively. HOMO and LUMO are centered at the S₂ units.     

Synthesis,Characterization and Theoretical Study of the Chemical Reactivity of New Cyclic Sulfamides Linked to Tetrathiafulvalene

Abstract

The synthesis of the title compounds has been carried out by condensation via a Wittig-type reaction of a pyridinium hexafluorophosphate with a phosphonate ester to give the desired (4-nitrophenyl)tetrathiafulvalene the nitro group of which was reduced to an amino group. Reaction of the amine with chlorosulfonyl isocyanate and subsequently with tert-butyl alcohol gave the corresponding open-chain sulfamide. Cyclization under basic conditions and de-protection led to 2-[4-(4′,5′-dipropyltetrathiafulvalen-4-yl)]phenyl-1,2,6-thiadiazinane 1,1-dioxide. Finally, N-alkylated and N-acylated cyclic sulfamides linked to tetrathiafulvalene were obtained. Their electron donor ability was measured by cyclic voltammetry. A detailed DFT study based on B3LYP/6–31G (d,p) of electronic properties is also presented. The calculated molecular electrostatic potential shows that, the negative charge covers the nitro and sulfamide function, while positive charge is located at the hydrogen atoms of the amine and sulfamide rings. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energy reveals that charge transfer occurs within the molecule. The chemical reactivity parameters reveal that tetrathiafulvalene 1 is highly reactive, which facilitates the desired formation of the cyclic sulfamide. The first hyperpolarizability β_tot shows that compounds 1 and 5 are good candidates as a NLO material.

Synthesis,Reactivity and Structural Properties of Trifluoromethylphosphoranides

Phosphoranides are interesting hypervalent species which serve as model compounds for intermediates or transition states in nucleophilic substitution reactions at trivalent phosphorus substrates. Herein, the syntheses and properties of stable trifluoromethylphosphoranide salts are reported. [K(18-crown-6)][P(CF₃)₄], [K(18-crown-6)][P(CF₃)₃F], and [NMe₄][P(CF₃)₂F₂] were obtained by treatment of trivalent precursors with sources of CF₃⁻ or F⁻ units. These [P(CF₃)_4-nF_n]⁻ (n=0–2) salts exhibit fluorinating (n=1–2) or trifluoromethylating (n=0) properties, which is disclosed by studying their reactivity towards selected electrophiles. The solid-state structures of [K(18-crown-6)][P(CF₃)₄] and [K(18-crown-6)][P(CF₃)₃F] are ascertained by single crystal X-ray crystallography.

Synthesis and Structural Characterization and Thermal Properties of a Novel Aza‐aromatic Base Adduct of Cadmium Thenoyltrifluoroacetonate: A precursor for Pure Phase Nano‐sized Cadmium(II) Oxide

A novel aza‐aromatic base adduct of cadmium(II) thenoyltrifluoroacetonate, [Cd(phen)(ttfa)₂] ( 1 ), (phen = 1, 10‐phenanthroline; ttfa = thenoyltrifluoroacetonate) was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, thermal analysis as well as X‐ray crystallography. The single‐crystal structure of this complex shows that the coordination number of the Cd²⁺ ions are six with two nitrogen donor atoms from aza‐aromatic base ligands and four oxygen donors from two thenoyltrifluoroacetonate ligands. The supramolecular features in these complexes are directed by weak directional intermolecular interactions. The structure of the title complex was optimized by density functional theory calculations. Calculated structural parameters and IR spectra for the title complex are in agreement with the crystal structure. The CdO nanoparticles were obtained by thermolysis of 1 at 180 °C with oleic acid as a surfactant. The average size of the nanoparticles was estimated by the Scherrer equation with the diameter about 45 nm. The morphology and size of the prepared CdO samples were further observed using SEM.     

Synthesis,structure, and characterization of Cu4S10(4-methylpyridine)4

The title compound, Cu₄S₁₀(4-methylpyridine)₄ · 4-methylpyridine was prepared by three different reactions: the oxidation of copper power by sulfur and the reaction of copper (I) sulfide (or CuBr-SMe₂) with cues sulfur, both in the coordinating solvent, 4-methylpyridine. Red crystals of the compound obtained by layering with hexans were subjected to single crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure was refined toR=0.026 and R _w =0.036 in a space groupP1bar (No. 2), withZ=2,a=13.983 (2) A,b=15.384( 2) Å,c=9.660 (1) Å, = 93.87 (1)°,=93.38 ==(1)°,V=2037.9 (9) ų. The commpound has approximate S₄ symmetry and consists of two pentasuffide chains linking four Cu(I) ions, each with a coordinating 2-methylpyridine. The infrared spectrum was dominated by absorption due to coodinated 4-methylpyridine with several low-energy peaks attributable to S-S stretches, which were also observed by Raman spectroscopy. A featureless electronic absorption spectrum yielded a single peak in the mar ultraviolet upon computer enhancement (=334 nm, = 10,000), most likely an intraligand transition. Cyclic voltammetry indicates that the polysulfide complex undergoes irreversible oxidation and reduction at +0.04 and –0.34 V vs. SCR respectively, at NS K in 4-methylpyridine when swept at 20 mV/sec. The electrochemical behavior was unvaried even at sweep rates as high as 100 V/sec.

通过g-C3N4担载MNi12 (Fe,Co, Cu,Zn)纳米团簇调节甲烷化

As a unique two-dimensional material, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) has received significant attention for its particular electronic structure and chemical performance. Its instinctive defect can provide a stable anchoring site for metals, potentially improving the surface reactivity. Ni-based catalysts are economical but their activity for CO₂ methanation is lower than that of noble metal catalysts. Ni nanoparticles (NPs) supported on a substrate can further enhance the stability and activity of catalysts. Based on the principles of strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) and the synergistic effect on an alloy, MNi₁₂/g-C₃N₄ composites as novel catalysts are expected to improve stability and catalytic performance of Ni-based catalysts. The configurations are established with core-shell structures of MNi₁₂ (M = Fe, Co, Cu, Zn) nanoparticles (NPs) supported on g-C₃N₄ in this work. In the CO₂ methanation reaction, the reactivity of CO on slab (E_CO) is a critical factor, which is relative to the catalytic activity. Thus, the catalytic reactivity of these complexes via CO adsorption were explored using density functional theory (DFT). The values of cohesive energy (E_coh) for MNi₁₂ NPs range from -39.90 eV to -34.82 eV, suggesting that the formation of these NPs is favored as per thermodynamics, and E_coh and partial density of state (PDOS) reveal that the central M atom with the less filled d-shell interacts more strongly with surface Ni atoms. Therefore, ZnNi₁₂ is the most unstable structure among all the studied alloy, and the synergistic effect is also the weakest among them. When MNi₁₂ NPs are supported on the g-C₃N₄ substrate, the binding energies (E_b) vary from -9.40 eV to -8.39 eV, indicating that g-C₃N₄ is indeed a good material for stabilizing these NPs. The PDOS analysis of pure g-C₃N₄ suggests the sp² dangling bonds of N atoms in g-C₃N₄ can stabilize these transition metal NPs. Furthermore, the results of CO adsorbed on MNi₁₂ NPs and MNi₁₂/g-C₃N₄ composites show that E_CO and d_CO reduced with the introduction of g-C₃N₄. According to the results of the analysis of the Hirshfeld charges and electrostatic potential (ESP), the reason is that CO obtains less electrons from MNi₁₂ NPs after deposition on the g-C₃N₄ substrate, which lowers the reactivity of CO on catalysts. Additionally, the deformation charge density is analyzed to investigate the interaction between the NPs and g-C₃N₄. With the introduction of g-C₃N₄, charge redistribution indicates the strong metal-support interaction, which further reduces the CO adsorption energy. In summary, MNi₁₂ supported on g-C₃N₄ exhibit not only high stability but also tunable reactivity in CO₂ methanation. These changes are beneficial for CO₂ methanation reaction.     

Siloles and Acetenyl Aromatics Copolymers: Synthesis,Characterization and Photophysical Properties

Two copolymers, poly(1,1‐dimethyl‐3,4‐diphenylsilole‐alt‐N‐hexyl‐3,6‐diethynylcarbazole) (PS‐DyCz) and poly(1,1‐dimethyl‐3,4‐diphenylsilole‐alt‐2,7‐diethynyl‐9,9′‐dihexylfluorene) (PS‐DyF), were synthesized by Sonogashira coupling reaction of 2,5‐dibromo‐1,1‐dimethyl‐3,4‐diphenylsilole and N‐hexyl‐3,6‐diethynylcarbazole or 2,7‐diethynyl‐9,9′‐dihexylfluorene, respectively. The chemical structures of the copolymers were characterized by NMR, FT‐IR techniques. Their thermal and photophysical properties were evaluated by TGA, DSC, UV‐Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy, respectively.

These π‐conjugated polymers exhibited lower band‐gap of 2.25 and 2.70 eV due to the presence of silole rings and C?C triple bonds in their backbone, the results were consistent with the density functional (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6‐31G* level.

Theoretical Studies on Structural and Spectroscopic Properties of Photoelectrochemical Cell Ruthenium Sensitizers-the Derivatives of N3

A series of dye molecules was designed theoretically. Particularly, azoles and their derivatives were chosen as the modifying groups linking to ancillary ligands of [Ru(dcbpyH₂)₂(NCS)₂](N3, dcbpy=4,4′-dicarboxy- 2,2′-bipyridine; NCS=thiocyanato). Density functional theory(DFT) based approaches were applied to exploring the electronic structures and properties of all these systems. The dye molecule with 1,2,4-triazole groups which exhibits a very high intensity of absorption in visible region, was obtained. Time-dependent DFT(TD-DFT) results indicate that the ancillary ligand dominates the molecular orbital(MO) energy levels and masters the absorption transition nature to a certain extent. The deprotonation of anchoring ligand not only affects the frontier MO energy levels but also controls the energy gaps of the highest occupied MO(HOMO) to the lowest unoccupied MO(LUMO) and LUMO to LUMO+1 orbital. If the gap between LUMO-LUMO+1 is small enough, the higher efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cell(DSSC) should be expected.

Synthesis,Spectral Characterization,Antitumor, Antioxidant,and Antimicrobial Studies of New Potential ONS Schiff Base Complexes

Novel Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes derived from 2‐aminopyridine‐3‐thiol and 4‐oxo‐4H‐chromene‐3‐carbaldehyde were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic (IR, ¹H NMR, UV–vis, ESR, and MS) and other analytical methods. Molar conductance data and magnetic susceptibility measurements provide evidence for the monomeric and monobasic nature of the complexes. The molar conductance measurement of the complexes in DMSO corresponds to their non‐electrolytic nature. All the complexes are of high‐spin type. On the basis of the different spectral studies, the six‐coordinated geometry may be assigned for all the complexes. IR spectral studies indicate the binding sites of the ligand with the metal ion. The Schiff base acts as tridentate ligand coordinated through deprotonated thiolic (SH) sulfur, azomethine (─CH═N─) nitrogen, and carbonyl (−C═O) oxygen atoms. The ligand field parameters were calculated for Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes and their values were found to be in the range reported for an octahedral structure. The data show that the complexes have an ML₂‐type composition. The activation thermodynamic parameters are calculated using the Coast–Redfern, Horowitz–Metzger (HM), Piloyan–Novikova (PN), and Broido equations. The X‐ray diffraction data suggest a triclinic system for all compounds. Different surface morphologies were identified from SEM micrographs. Human tumor cell lines A427 (lung cancer cell line), LCLC‐103H (large cell lung cancer), SISO (uterine adenocarcinoma), and 5637(human bladder carcinoma) grown in RPMI‐1640 medium were elevated. The biological screening data show that the complexes show growth inhibitory activity against various microorganisms. The octahedral geometry of the complexes is confirmed using density functional theory (DFT) from DMOL³ calculations, electronic and magnetic moment measurements, ESR, and ligand field parameters.
