Fully π-conjugated ladder polymers with a spiral geometry represent a new class of helical polymers with great potential for organic nanodevices, but there is no precedent for an optically active helical ladder polymer totally composed of achiral units. We now report the defect-free synthesis and resolution of a fully π-conjugated helical ladder polymer with a rigid helical cavity, which has been achieved by quantitative and chemoselective acid-promoted alkyne benzannulations of a rationally designed, random-coil achiral polymer followed by chromatographic enantioseparation. Because of a sufficiently high helix-inversion barrier, the isolated excess one-handed helical ladder polymer with a degree of polymerization of more than 15 showed a strong circular dichroism with a dissymmetry factor of up to 1.7×10−2 and is thermally stable, maintaining its optical activity in solution even at 100 °C, as well-supported by molecular dynamics simulation. 相似文献
Ag2[Cr3O(OOCC2H5)6(H2O)3]2[alpha-SiW12O40] [1] is a nonporous flexible ionic crystal composed of 2D-layers of polyoxometalates ([alpha-SiW12O40](4-)) and macrocations ([Cr3O(OOCC2H5)6(H2O)3](+)) stacking along the b-axis. The silver ions are located in the vicinity of the oxygen atoms of the polyoxometalates. The sorption amounts of small unsaturated hydrocarbons such as ethylene, propylene, n-butene, acetylene, and methyl acetylene into 1 are comparable to or larger than 1.0 mol mol(-1) and large hystereses are observed, while those of paraffins and larger unsaturated hydrocarbons are smaller than the adsorption on the external surface (<0.2 mol mol(-1)). Fine crystals of 1 exhibit ethylene/ethane and propylene/propane sorption ratios over 100 at 298 K and 100 kPa, and the values are larger by 1 order of magnitude among those reported. The results of sorption kinetics, in situ IR spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray crystallography, and in situ powder XRD studies show that small unsaturated hydrocarbons penetrate into the solid bulk of 1 through the pi-complexation with Ag(+). The sorption property of 1 is successfully applied to the collection of ethylene from the gas mixture of ethane and ethylene. 相似文献
The pH dependence of the structures of {Mo(154-x)} mixed-valence oxomolybdate giant clusters were investigated by synchrotron X-ray diffraction of systematically prepared crystals containing [Mo138O410(OH)20(OH2)46](40-) (1), [Mo138O410(OH)20(OH2)38](40-) (2), [Mo138O406(OH)16(OH2)46](28-) (3), [Mo142O400(OH)52(OH2)38](28-) (4), [Mo142O432(OH2)58](40-) (5), [Mo148O436(OH)15(OH2)56](27-) (6), [Mo150O451(OH)5(OH2)61](35-) (7), and both [Mo150O442.5(OH)11.5(OH2)64](24.5-) and [Mo152O446(OH)20(OH2)54](28-) (8). Crystals 1, 4, and 5 contain discrete clusters while intercluster Mo-O-Mo bonds connect the clusters into chains in crystal 7, into two-dimensional networks in crystals 2 and 3, and into a three-dimensional framework structure in crystal 6. Crystal 8 contains both discrete and linearly catenated clusters: discrete {Mo150} are located between the chains of {Mo152}. Direct correlation was observed between the nuclearity of the clusters with the pH of the mother liquor. On the other hand, the geometries of extended structures do not show apparent correlation with the pH. They turned out to be governed by the tectonics of the component clusters. The pH of the mother liquor exerts influence on the extended structure through the structures of the constituent clusters. 相似文献
A newly developed vacuum hot press system has been specially designed for the thermal bonding of glass substrates in the fabrication process of Pyrex glass microchemical chips. This system includes a vacuum chamber equipped with a high-pressure piston cylinder and carbon plate heaters. A temperature of up to 900 degrees C and a force of as much as 9800 N could be applied to the substrates in a vacuum atmosphere. The Pyrex substrates bonded with this system under different temperatures, pressures, and heating times were evaluated by tensile strength tests, by measurements of thickness, and by observations of the cross-sectional shapes of the microchannels. The optimal bonding conditions of the Pyrex glass substrates were 570 degrees C for 10 min under 4.7 N/mm(2) of applied pressure. Whereas more than 16 h is required for thermal bonding with a conventional furnace, the new system could complete the whole bonding processes within just 79 min, including heating and cooling periods. Such improvements should considerably enhance the production rate of Pyrex glass microchemical chips. Whereas flat and dust-free surfaces are required for conventional thermal bonding, especially without long and repeated heating periods, our hot press system could press a fine dust into glass substrates so that even the areas around the dust were bonded. Using this capability, we were able to successfully integrate Pt/Ti thin film electrodes into a Pyrex glass microchip. 相似文献
Mix and calcinate : The tin–tungsten mixed oxide (Sn–W oxide) prepared by calcination of the Sn–W hydroxide at 800 °C acts as an effective and reusable solid catalyst for C? C bond‐forming reactions, such as the cyclization of citronellal, the Diels–Alder reaction, and the cyanosilylation of carbonyl compounds with trimethylsilyl cyanide (see scheme). The observed catalysis was truly heterogeneous, and the recovered catalyst could be reused without loss of its high catalytic performance.
The UV, excitation, and luminescence spectra of tris(pivaloyltrifluoroacetonato)europium(III) ([Eu(pta)3]; Hpta=1,1,1‐trifluoro‐5,5‐dimethylhexane‐2,4‐dione=HA) were measured in the presence of bis(salicylidene)trimethylenediamine (H2saltn), bis[5‐(tert‐butyl)salicylidene]trimethylenediamine (H2(tBu)saltn), or bis(salicylidene)cyclohexane‐1,2‐diyldiamine (H2salchn), and the corresponding ZnII complexes [ZnB] (B=Schiff base). The excitation and luminescence spectra of the solution containing [Eu(pta)3] and [Zn(salchn)] exhibited much stronger intensities than those of solutions containing the other [ZnB] complexes. The introduction of a tBu group into the Schiff base was not effective in sensitizing the luminescence of [Eu(pta)3]. The luminescence spectrum of [ZnB] showed a band around 450 nm. The intensity decreased in the presence of [Eu(pta)3], reflecting complexation between [Eu(pta)3] and [ZnB]. On the basis of the change in intensity against the concentration of [ZnB], stability constants were determined for [Eu(pta)3Zn(saltn)], [Eu(pta)3Zn{(tBu)saltn}], and [Eu(pta)3Zn(salchn)] as 4.13, 4.9 and 5.56, respectively (log , where =[[Eu(pta)3ZnB]]([[Eu(pta)3]][[ZnB]])?1). The quantum yields of these binuclear complexes were determined as 0.15, 0.11, and 0.035, although [Eu(pta)3Zn(salchn)] revealed the strongest luminescence at 613 nm. The results of X‐ray diffraction analysis for [Eu(pta)3Zn(saltn)] showed that ZnII had a coordination number of five and was bridged with EuIII by three donor O‐atoms, i.e., two from the salicylidene moieties and one from the ketonato group pta. 相似文献
An ionic crystal of Cs2[Cr3O(OOCC2H5)6(H2O)3]2[alpha-SiW12O40].4H2O 1a with hydrophilic and hydrophobic channels has been designed and successfully synthesized. The guest-free phase 1b sorbs dichloromethane and water in the hydrophobic and hydrophilic channels, respectively. The rate and equilibrium amount of the dichloromethane sorption into the hydrophobic channel and those of water into the hydrophilic channel were independent of each other. The sorption properties can be applied to the channel-selective sorption and collection of hydrophobic (dichloromethane) and hydrophilic (water) molecules from the mixture. 相似文献
An organic-inorganic hybrid support has been synthesized by covalently anchoring an N-octyldihydroimidazolium cation fragment onto SiO2 (denoted as 1-SiO2). This modified support was characterized by solid-state 13C, 29Si, and 31P NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. The results showed that the structure of the dihydroimidazolium skeleton is preserved on the surface of SiO2. The modified support can act as a good anion exchanger, which allows the catalytically active polyoxometalate anion [gamma-1,2-H2SiV2W10O40]4- (I) to be immobilized onto the support by a stoichiometric anion exchange (denoted as I/1-SiO2). The structure of anion I is preserved after the anion exchange, as confirmed by IR and 51V NMR spectroscopy. The catalytic performance for the oxidation of olefins and sulfides, with hydrogen peroxide (only one equivalent with respect to substrate) as the sole oxidant, was investigated with I/1-SiO2. This supported catalyst shows a high stereospecificity, diastereoselectivity, regioselectivity, and a high efficiency of hydrogen peroxide utilization for the oxidation of various olefins and sulfides without any loss of the intrinsic catalytic nature of the corresponding homogeneous analogue of I (i.e., the tetra-n-butylammonium salt of I, TBA-I), although the rates decreased to about half that with TBA-I. The oxidation can be stopped immediately by removal of the solid catalyst, and vanadium and tungsten species can hardly be found in the filtrate after removal of the catalyst. These results rule out any contribution to the observed catalysis from vanadium and tungsten species that leach into the reaction solution, which means that the observed catalysis is truly heterogeneous in nature. In addition, the catalyst is reusable for both epoxidation and sulfoxidation without any loss of catalytic performance. 相似文献
