We designed, synthesized, and characterized two types of dimeric forms of monocarba‐closo‐dodecaborate, namely, a “dumbbell”‐shaped dianion having a C?C bond and a “clackers”‐shaped monoanion having an iodonium linker. The unique architectures of these anionic molecules were established by X‐ray analysis. Spectroscopic analysis, DFT calculations, and reactivity experiments revealed high anionic and chemical stability of both anions, which are crucial properties for weakly coordinating anions. 相似文献
Strategies to compensate material fatigue are among the most challenging issues, being most prominently addressed by the use of nano‐ and microscaled fillers, or via new chemical concepts such as self‐healing materials. A capsule‐based self‐healing material is reported, where the adverse effect of reduced tensile strength due to the embedded capsules is counterbalanced by a graphene‐based filler, the latter additionally acting as a catalyst for the self‐healing reaction. The concept is based on “click”‐based chemistry, a universal methodology to efficiently link components at ambient reaction conditions, thus generating a “reactive glue” at the cracked site. A capsule‐based healing system via a graphene‐based Cu2O (TRGO‐Cu2O‐filler) is used, acting as both the catalytic species for crosslinking and the required reinforcement agent within the material, in turn compensating the reduction in tensile strength exerted by the embedded capsules. Room‐temperature self‐healing within 48 h is achieved, with the investigated specimen containing TRGO‐Cu2O demonstrating significantly faster self‐healing compared to homogeneous (Cu(PPh3)3F, Cu(PPh3)3Br), and heterogeneous (Cu/C) copper(I) catalysts.
2‐Arylidene‐1,3‐indanediones undergo a regioselective 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition reaction with the azomethine ylide derived from isatin and sarcosine by decarboxylative route affording a series of 1‐N‐methyl — spiro[2.3′“]oxindole‐spiro[3.2”]indane‐1“,3”‐diones‐4‐aryl pyrrolidines. The structures were established by spectroscopic techniques as well as single crystal X‐ray analysis. Density functional theory at B3L YP/6‐31G* and the semi empirical AM1 calculations were employed to rationalize the observed results. The experimental regioselectivity of 1,3‐dipolar cycloadditions could be corroborated nicely with the computed Fukui frontier orbital energies and reaction energies. 相似文献
The crystal structures of the two compounds reported to be 4‐aminofurazan‐3‐carboxylic acid have been determined. The compound reported by Sheremetev et al. (J Heterocycl Chem 2005, 42, 519) is the actual 4‐aminofurazan‐3‐carboxylic acid. The compound reported by Meyer (Org Prep Proced Int 2004, 36, 361) is the interesting complex formed from a molecule of the acid and a molecule of the potassium salt of the acid. J.

Exciton migration! Spectroscopic analyses and extensive molecular dynamics studies revealed a well‐defined 41 helix in which the perylene molecules (see figure) form four “helter‐skelter‐like” overlapping pathways along which excitons and electrons can rapidly migrate.
DNA‐based self‐assembled nanostructures are widely used to position organic and inorganic objects with nanoscale precision. A particular promising application of DNA structures is their usage as programmable carrier systems for targeted drug delivery. To provide DNA‐based templates that are robust against degradation at elevated temperatures, low ion concentrations, adverse pH conditions, and DNases, we built 6‐helix DNA tile tubes consisting of 24 oligonucleotides carrying alkyne groups on their 3′‐ends and azides on their 5′‐ends. By a mild click reaction, the two ends of selected oligonucleotides were covalently connected to form rings and interlocked DNA single strands, so‐called DNA catenanes. Strikingly, the structures stayed topologically intact in pure water and even after precipitation from EtOH. The structures even withstood a temperature of 95 °C when all of the 24 strands were chemically interlocked. 相似文献
A series of self‐assembled “double saddle”‐type trinuclear complexes of [Pd3L′3 L 2] formulation have been synthesized by complexation of a series of cis‐protected palladium(II) components with a slightly divergent “E‐shaped” non‐chelating tridentate ligand, 1,1′‐(pyridine‐3,5‐diyl)bis(3‐(pyridin‐3‐yl)urea ( L ). The cis‐protecting agents L′ employed in the study are ethylenediamine (en), tetramethylethylenediamine (tmeda), 2,2′‐bipyridine (bpy), and 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen), for 1 , 2 , 3 , and 4 , respectively. The crystal structures of [Pd3(tmeda)3( L )2](NO3)6 ( 2 ), [Pd3(bpy)3( L )2](NO3)6 ( 3 ), and [Pd3(phen)3( L )2](NO3)6 ( 4 ) unequivocally support the new architecture. Two of the “double saddle”‐type complexes ( 3 and 4 ) are suitably crafted with π surfaces at the strategically located cis‐protecting sites to facilitate intermolecular π–π interactions in the solid state. As a consequence, six units of the 3 (or 4 ) are assembled, by means of six‐pairs of π–π stacking interactions, in a circular geometry to form an octadecanuclear molecular ring of [(Pd3L′3 L 2)6] composition. The overall arrangement of the rings in the crystal packing is equated with the traditional Indian art form rangoli. 相似文献
