Spirobifluorene derivatives find use in many end-user applications. Therefore, further expansion of their scope is the focus of many research studies. However, although the optical properties of spirobifluorenes can be greatly tuned through incorporation of metal complexes, to date, spirobifluorene metallaaromatics remain unknown. Taking advantage of the versatility of our methodology for the synthesis of metallaaromatic systems, this work reports the first metallaaromatic spirobifluorene compound. The presence of an Ir atom was found to redshift the absorption maximum by ca. 1.1 eV compared to bare spirobifluorene. Additionally, X-ray analysis as well as anisotropy of the current-induced density calculations revealed this compound to be of aromatic nature. The high stability in solution, solid state, under air, and at high temperature, as well as distinct optical properties of this new class of compounds are expected to open new frontiers for chiroptical and optoelectronic applications. 相似文献
The experimental and computational characterization of a series of dialkylterphenyl phosphines, PR2Ar′ is described. The new P-donors comprise five compounds of general formula PR2Ar (R=Me, Et, iPr, c-C5H9 and c-C6H11); Ar = 2,6-C6H3-(3,5-C6H3-(CMe3)2)2), and another five PR2Ar′ phosphines containing the bulky alkyl groups iPr, c-C5H9 or c-C6H11, in combination with Ar′=Ar , Ar , or Ar ( L1 – L10 ). Steric and electronic parameters have been determined computationally and from IR and X-ray data obtained for the phosphines and for some derivatives, including tricarbonyl and dicarbonyl nickel complexes, Ni(CO)3(PR2Ar′) and Ni(CO)2(PR2Ar′). In the solid state, the free phosphines PR2Ar′ adopt one of the three possible structures formally related by rotation around the Cipso−P bond. Details on their relative energies and on the influence of the free phosphine structure on its coordination chemistry towards Ni(CO)n (n = 2, 3) fragments has been obtained by experimental and computational methods. 相似文献
Euler equations of the orbital-free excited-state density functional theory of Coulomb systems are derived for specific relative information. Derivation via variational extremization of the relative Fisher information is also presented. Relationships between the Fisher and Shannon information, the local wave vector, and the relative information are displayed. 相似文献
We show that an obstruction of number-theoretical nature appears as a necessary condition for the global hypoellipticity of the pseudo-differential operator \(L=D_t+(a+ib)(t)P(D_x)\) on \(\mathbb {T}^1_t\times \mathbb {T}_x^{N}\). This condition is also sufficient when the symbol \(p(\xi )\) of \(P(D_x)\) has at most logarithmic growth. If \(p(\xi )\) has super-logarithmic growth, we show that the global hypoellipticity of L depends on the change of sign of certain interactions of the coefficients with the symbol \(p(\xi ).\) Moreover, the interplay between the order of vanishing of coefficients with the order of growth of \(p(\xi )\) plays a crucial role in the global hypoellipticity of L. We also describe completely the global hypoellipticity of L in the case where \(P(D_x)\) is homogeneous. Additionally, we explore the influence of irrational approximations of a real number in the global hypoellipticity.
A series of Ru complexes containing lutidine‐derived pincer CNC ligands have been prepared by transmetalation with the corresponding silver‐carbene derivatives. Characterization of these derivatives shows both mer and fac coordination of the CNC ligands depending on the wingtips of the N‐heterocyclic carbene fragments. In the presence of tBuOK, the Ru‐CNC complexes are active in the hydrogenation of a series of imines. In addition, these complexes catalyze the reversible hydrogenation of phenantridine. Detailed NMR spectroscopic studies have shown the capability of the CNC ligand to be deprotonated and get involved in ligand‐assisted activation of dihydrogen. More interestingly, upon deprotonation, the Ru‐CNC complex 5 e (BF4) is able to add aldimines to the metal–ligand framework to yield an amido complex. Finally, investigation of the mechanism of the hydrogenation of imines has been carried out by means of DFT calculations. The calculated mechanism involves outer‐sphere stepwise hydrogen transfer to the C?N bond assisted either by the pincer ligand or a second coordinated H2 molecule. 相似文献
Several theoretical studies have proposed strategies to generate helical molecular orbitals (Hel-MOs) in [n]cumulenes and oligoynes. While chiral even-[n] cumulenes feature Hel-MOs, odd-[n] cumulenes may also present them if the terminal groups lie in different planes. However, the proposed systems have been either experimentally unfeasible or resulted in opposite pseudo-degenerated Hel-MOs. We hereby demonstrate the introduction of a remarkable energy difference between helical orbitals of opposite twist by fixing the torsion angle between the terminal groups in butadiyne fragments. To experimentally lock the conformation of the terminal groups, we designed and synthesized cyclic architectures by combining acetylenes with chiral spirobifluorenes. The high stability of these systems with distinct helical orbitals allowed their isolation and full characterization. In our view, these results constitute a step further in the development of real systems presenting helical molecular orbitals. 相似文献
The Parsons-Lee theory has been modified to study the liquid-crystalline phase behaviour of the linear fused hard sphere chain fluids. The modification of the Parsons-Lee theory is based on the application of the so-called effective molecular volume instead of the real molecular volume. This alteration does not mean any change for the Parsons-Lee treatment of the hard convex bodies but does for the non-convex ones. The results of the modified Parsons-Lee theory show very good agreement with simulations not only for the location of the isotropic-nematic phase transition but for the equation of state. 相似文献
