EPR studies on H-abstractions/spin-trapping reactions of new 'magic blue' reagents with alcohols

The H-abstractions/spin-trapping reactions with primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols of new 'magic blue' reagents, namely, the blue F113 (CClF₂CCl₂F) solution containing bis{perfluoro[1-(2-fluorosulfonyl)ethoxy]ethyl} nitroxide (2) and perfluoro[1-nitroso-1-(2-fluorosulfonyl)ethoxy]ethane (3) both generated in the reaction of perfluoro[2-(2-fluorosulfonyl)ethoxy]propionyl peroxide (1) with sodium nitrite in F113 at room temperature, were studied by EPR. Based on the interpretation of the EPR spectra of the spin adducts, nitroxides, the region-selectivity of H-abstraction has been disclosed and the possible mechanistic paths of H-abstraction have also been discussed. EPR of H-abstraction by using 'magic blue' reagents can also be used for producing various hydroxyalkyl radicals from common alcohols.     

Thermally-induced order-order transition of DNA-cationic surfactant complexes

Polyanionic DNA interacts with cationic amphiphiles to form electrostatic complexes exhibiting rich self-assembled structures. This type of complex has been considered as a nonviral carrier in gene therapy and as a template for nanostructure construction. Here we report a thermally-induced phase transition of the complexes of DNA with the mixtures of a cationic surfactant, dodecyltrimethyl bromide (DTAB), and a neutral lipid, dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE), in fully hydrated state. An order-order transition between a multilamellar (L(c)alpha) phase and an inverted hexagonal (H(c)II) phase was found to occur with the transition temperature adjustable by the DTAB-to-DNA base pair molar ratio (x) and DOPE-to-DTAB molar ratio (m). The stability of the L(c)alpha phase was enhanced at lower m and x, as the L(c)alpha-to-H(c)II transition temperature increased with the decreases of these two parameters. The suppression of -to- transition at lower x was attributed to the lower entropic gain from the counterion release due to the presence of uncomplexed DNA in the bulk solution.     

Two cobalt(II) 5-aminoisophthalate complexes and their stable supramolecular microporous frameworks

Two stable supramolecular microporous cobalt(II) polymers, namely [Co(HAIP)2]n.3nH2O (1) and [Co(AIP)(H2O)]n (2), AIP = 5-aminoisophthalate, were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectra, thermogravimetric analyses, and variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements. The two complexes are constructed from the same Co2(CO2)2 SBU, which is extended into a 1D chain in 1 and a 2D layer in 2. As a result, 1 and 2 are 2D and 3D coordination polymers, respectively. The 3D supramolecular network of complex 1 is held up by strong hydrogen bonds formed between carboxylate groups and shows very high stability when the free H2O molecules are removed, indicating an extraordinarily stable H-bonding system. Upon water ligands being liberated, complex 2 becomes a stable microporous solid with coordination-unsaturated Co centers. The behavior of the susceptibility curve of 1 suggests the occurrence of an interesting intrachain antiferromagnetic coupling between the Co(II) ions and the presence of a significant orbital contribution, whereas the features of 2 indicate an antiferromagnetic coupling with T(N) = 3.5 K and a long-range antiferromagnetic order with a field-induced magnetic transition.     

A new [Ni4] distorted cubane assembly on four solvent derived μ3-OMe corners: Solvent dependent formation and cleavage of exogenous bridges

A new Ni₄ distorted cubane complex [Ni₄(μ₃-OMe)₄Q₄(MeOH)₄] (1) (where Q⁻ is the anion of 8-quinolinol) is obtained from the reaction of NaQ with Ni(OAc)₂ · 4H₂O in refluxing MeOH via solvent derived μ₃-OMe assisted self-assembly of four nickel(II) centres. The periphery of [Ni₄(OMe)₄] cubane is covered by four Q⁻ and four MeOH molecules. This methanol specific reaction is not supported in solvent glycinol (Hgl; NH₂(CH₂)₂OH), an amine substituted ethanol, producing monomeric [NiQ₂(Hgl)₂] · 2H₂O (2 · 2H₂O) instead and is able to cleave 1 to yield 2 · 2H₂O. The cryomagnetic susceptibility data of powdered 1 can be modeled by a two J equation yielding J₁ = −1.8(1) cm⁻¹, J₂ = 3.9(1) cm⁻¹ and g = 2.24.

Novel facile detection of persistent organic pollutants using highly sensitive gas sensor

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are greatly noxious chemicals in environment, and they can cumulate in organisms and transfer between different species. Therefore, it is significant to detect POPs for both environmental evaluation and further treatment. However, developing facile approach for the detection of POPs still remains a challenge so far. In this paper, we report an innovative method for facile detection of POPs using gas sensor for the first time. Porous SnO₂ nanostructures with a special tri-walled structure prepared via hydrothermal route and annealing process, were employed as gas-sensing materials. Through gas measurements, it was revealed that the as-fabricated gas sensor exhibited highly sensitive performance towards target POPs, including methoxychlor, mirex, p,p′-DDT, and aldrin. Moreover, we found that target POPs were distinguishable by extracting characteristics in kinetic curves of gas adsorption-desorption. As the presented detecting approach is facile without the requirements of complex operations, expensive and bulky instruments, it is expected that it would be developed as a promising method for the detection of POPs, and thereby showing its significance for environmental monitoring.     

Evolution of self-diffusion and local structure in some amines over a wide temperature range at high pressures: a molecular dynamics simulation study

Self-diffusion and structural properties of ammonia, methylamine and trimethylamine have been studied by molecular dynamics simulation in the temperature range between the melting pressure curve and 700 K at pressures up to 400 MPa. The calculation results agree well with the experiment, which suggests that one can use the simulation method as a powerful tool to obtain self-diffusion coefficients over wide range of temperatures and pressures, under which it is rather difficult for experiments. The local structures of such fluids are investigated by calculating radial distribution functions (RDFs), the numbers of hydrogen bonds and coordination numbers. The correlation between self-diffusion and structural properties, and the influence of temperature and pressure on them are discussed. The simulation results demonstrate that the temperature effects are more pronounced than the pressure effects on self-diffusion and structural properties, and the effect of hydrogen bonding on the translational dynamics in any of these systems is a minor factor, while it is mainly affected by the close packing of amine molecules.     

A DNA crystal designed to contain two molecules per asymmetric unit

We describe the self-assembly of a DNA crystal that contains two tensegrity triangle molecules per asymmetric unit. We have used X-ray crystallography to determine its crystal structure. In addition, we have demonstrated control over the colors of the crystals by attaching either Cy3 dye (pink) or Cy5 dye (blue-green) to the components of the crystal, yielding crystals of corresponding colors. Attaching the pair of dyes to the pair of molecules yields a purple crystal.
