四卤化锰(Ⅱ)配合物的结构调控及力致发光性能

力致发光是一种力刺激诱导的发光现象。由于其独特的发光方式,使得力致发光材料在结构损伤检测、压力传感、显示和安全标记等方面展现出了巨大的应用价值。目前已报道的力致发光材料大多基于无机材料体系,而有机力致发光材料体系相对较少,并且人们对其发光机理的认识仍不清晰。在本文中,我们发现锰(Ⅱ)配合物[BPP]2[Mn Br4]具有力致发光特性,并在此基础上设计合成了一系列具有力致发光性质的四卤化锰(Ⅱ)配合物。改变有机阳离子配体或者卤素阴离子可对其光物理性质进行有效调控。固态下,这些锰(Ⅱ)配合物均显示出了较强的光致发光现象,同时表现出了明显的力致发光特性。晶体结构分析表明,分子内/分子间强的C―H…X (X=Br或Cl)相互作用对锰(Ⅱ)配合物的力致发光起到了至关重要的作用,它可在较大程度上降低由分子振动和旋转造成的能量损失。本工作将为力刺激响应型材料体系的拓展提供一定的参考价值。

通过赝反伽伐尼反应实现金纳米粒子模块替换

通过可控的方式精确调控纳米粒子的结构仍是一个富有挑战性和鼓舞人心的课题.尽管单原子或两、三个金属原子的精细调控已经在金纳米粒子中实现,涉及三个以上金属原子的取代（模块取代）还没有报道.本工作报道了环己硫醇配体保护的Au₄₈（CHT）₂₆的合成及其通过赝反伽伐尼过程的模块取代.单晶结构揭示模块取代的产物与母体团簇共用一个相似的Au₃₁（CHT）₁₂主体,但剩余部分不同（Au₆（CHT）₁₁ vs.Au₁₆（CHT）₁₄）.一个有趣的发现是模块取代抑制了Au₄₈（CHT）₂₆的光热过程,却增强了它的发射,赋予了所合成团簇更好的双（多）功能应用潜力.光热效应的减弱和发射的增强也暗示了这两种作用能够彼此至少部分转化,对于研究这两种效应之间的相互影响也具有重要的启示.     

Conjugated polymer nanoparticles as fluorescence switch for selective cell imaging

Fluorescence switch plays a vital role in bioelectronics and bioimaging.Herein,we presented a new kind of facile electrostatic complex nanoparticles(ECNs)for fluorescence switching in cells and marking of individual cell.The ECNs were prepared by mixing positively charged poly(6-(2-(thiophen-3-yl)ethoxy)hexyl trimethylammonium bromide)(PT)and negatively charged diarylethene sodium salt(DAECOONa).DAE-COONa is a photoswitchable molecule which can be transformed between the ring-closed fo rm and ring-open form under the irradiation of UV or visible light.The closed-form of DAE-COONa can efficie ntly quench the fluorescence of PT through intermolecular energy transfer,while the open form of DAE-COONa does not influence the emission of PT.Thus,the fluorescence of ECNs can be modulated by light irradiation,and the ECNs with good fluorescence switching performance have been employed for fluorescence imaging and individual cell lighting up process successfully.We demonstrate that the electrostatic complex strategy provides a facile method to construct fluorescence switch fo r selective cell marking and imaging applications.

Stabilities,Electronic Structures,and Bonding Properties of Iron Complexes (E1E2)Fe(CO)2(CNArTripp2)2 (E1E2=BF,CO, N2, CN−, or NO+)**

The coordination of 10-electron diatomic ligands (BF, CO N₂) to iron complexes Fe(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂ [Ar^Tripp2=2,6-(2,4,6-(iso-propyl)₃C₆H₂)₂C₆H₃] have been realized in experiments very recently (Science, 2019 , 363, 1203–1205). Herein, the stability, electronic structures, and bonding properties of (E₁E₂)Fe-(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂ (E₁E₂=BF, CO, N₂, CN⁻, NO⁺) were studied using density functional (DFT) calculations. The ground state of all those molecules is singlet and the calculated geometries are in excellent agreement with the experimental values. The natural bond orbital analysis revealed that Fe is negatively charged while E₁ possesses positive charges. By employing the energy decomposition analysis, the bonding nature of the E₂E₁–Fe(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂ bond was disclosed to be the classic dative bond E₂E₁→Fe(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂ rather than the electron-sharing double bond. More interestingly, the bonding strength between BF and Fe(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂ is much stronger than that between CO (or N₂) and Fe(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂, which is ascribed to the better σ-donation and π back-donations. However, the orbital interactions in CN⁻→Fe(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂ and NO⁺→Fe(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂ mainly come from σ-donation and π back-donation, respectively. The different contributions from σ donation and π donation for different ligands can be well explained by using the energy levels of E₁E₂ and Fe(CO)₂(CNAr^Tripp2)₂ fragments.     

Multiple Stimuli-Responsive Conformational Exchanges of Biphen[3]arene Macrocycle

Conformational exchanges of synthetic macrocyclic acceptors are rather fast, which is rarely studied in the absence of guests. Here, we report multiple stimuli-responsive conformational exchanges between two preexisting conformations of 2,2′,4,4′-tetramethoxyl biphen[3]arene (MeBP3) macrocycle. Structures of these two conformations are both observed in solid state, and characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and 2D NMR in solution. In particular, conformational exchanges can respond to solvents, temperatures, guest binding and acid/base addition. The current system may have a role to play in the construction of molecular switches and other stimuli-responsive systems.     

Polymer Networks: From Plastics and Gels to Porous Frameworks

Polymer networks, which are materials composed of many smaller components—referred to as “junctions” and “strands”—connected together via covalent or non‐covalent/supramolecular interactions, are arguably the most versatile, widely studied, broadly used, and important materials known. From the first commercial polymers through the plastics revolution of the 20^th century to today, there are almost no aspects of modern life that are not impacted by polymer networks. Nevertheless, there are still many challenges that must be addressed to enable a complete understanding of these materials and facilitate their development for emerging applications ranging from sustainability and energy harvesting/storage to tissue engineering and additive manufacturing. Here, we provide a unifying overview of the fundamentals of polymer network synthesis, structure, and properties, tying together recent trends in the field that are not always associated with classical polymer networks, such as the advent of crystalline “framework” materials. We also highlight recent advances in using molecular design and control of topology to showcase how a deep understanding of structure–property relationships can lead to advanced networks with exceptional properties.     

Steric Mixed‐Cation 2D Perovskite as a Methylammonium Locker to Stabilize MAPbI3

The reduced dimension perovskite including 2D perovskites are one of the most promising strategies to stabilize lead halide perovskite. A mixed‐cation 2D perovskite based on a steric phenyltrimethylammonium (PTA) cation is presented. The PTA‐MA mixed‐cation 2D perovskite of PTAMAPbI₄ can be formed on the surface of MAPbI₃ (PTAI‐MAPbI₃) by controllable PTAI intercalation by either spin coating or soaking. The PTAMAPbI₄ capping layer can not only passivate PTAI‐MAPbI₃ perovskite but also act as MA⁺ locker to inhibit MAI extraction and significantly enhance the stability. The highly stable PTAI‐MAPbI₃ based perovskite solar cells exhibit a reproducible photovoltaic performance with a champion PCE of 21.16 %. Such unencapsulated devices retain 93 % of initial efficiency after 500 h continuous illumination. This steric mixed‐cation 2D perovskite as MA⁺ locker to stabilize the MAPbI₃ is a promising strategy to design stable and high‐performance hybrid lead halide perovskites.
