Theoretical Study on the Structural and Optoelectronic Properties of the Linear Perfluorooctane Sulfonate （PFOS）

The perfluoroalkyl substances(PFS) have attracted considerable attention in recent years as a persistent global pollutant to be able to bioaccumulate in higher organisms.In this paper,theoretical analysis on electronic structures,optoelectronic properties and absorption spectra properties of the perflurooctane sulfonate(PFOS) in gas phase have been investigated by using the DFT/TD-DFT method.The geometric structures,electrostatic potentials,energy gaps,ionization potentials,electron affinities,frontier molecular orbital,excitation energies and absorption spectra for the ground state of PFOS were calculated.The result indicates that the ability of accepting electron of neutral PFOS is larger than that of anionic PFOS,while the electron excited by UV irradiation from HOMO to LUMO in the anionic PFOS is easier than that in the neutral PFOS.     

A real-time AFM study on crystal nucleation and growth in nanodroplets of isotactic polypropylene

Isotactic polypropylene (iPP) nanodroplets were prepared by using the classical droplet method in this study. The formation of nanodroplets allowed the controlled observation of polymer nucleation as well as access to crystal growth at exceptionally high supercooling in iPP. Three cases including the heterogeneous nucleation and fast crystallization in iPP droplets, the formation of multiple independent homogeneous nuclei within a single droplet and a single nucleus within a single droplet were detected by using atomic force microscopy (AFM) during gradually cooling after remelting the nanodroplets. Moreover, it is found that when the volume of droplet is larger than the value of ca. 130000 nm3, the first case was observed. Otherwise, the latter two cases appeared. The temperature at which the onset of nucleation was observed in individual droplets was found to be mainly dependent on height of the droplets when the size scale of the droplet is comparable to the size of the critical nucleus in at least one dimension, which indicates the nucleation behavior under confinement.     

A 2D Wavy Parquet Architecture Based on the Biphenyl-3,3’,4,4’-tetracarboxylic Acid and Bis(2-benzimidazole)alkanes Ligands

A double-T-shaped ligand (H4BPTC) and bis(2-benzimidazole)alkanes as the spacers have been firstly used to direct the assembly of a 2D coordination polymer with wavy parquet network topology, [Zn(BPTC)0.5(H2C2EIm)(H2O)]n (1, C24H18ZnN4O5, Mr = 507.79, H4BPTC = biphenyl-3,3',4,4'-tetracarboxylic acid, H2C2EIm = 2,2'-(1,2-ethanediyl)-bis(1H-benzi- midazole), which was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P21/n with a = 1.1844(5), b = 1.4019(5), c = 1.4026(5) nm, β = 108.359(5)°, V = 2.2104(15) nm3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.526 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 1.156 mm-1, F(000) = 1040, S = 1.038, the final R = 0.0427 and wR = 0.0793 for 3834 reflections with I > 2σ(I). The compound units are linked through BPTC ligands into a wavilness parquet 2D layer and further connected into a 3D framework via π-π packing interactions between the adjacent H2C2EIm ligands and weak N-H…O hydrogen bonding between uncoordinated carboxylate and the nitrogen atoms of H2C2EIm as well as the free water molecules.     

Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Fluorescent Property of One New Complex [Na2（2-benzoylbenzoato）4（Phen）2（H2O）2]·H2O

One binuclear sodium(Ⅰ) complex [Na2(2-benzoylbenzoato)4(Phen)2(H2O)2]·H2O has been synthesized with 2-benzoylbenzoic acid and 1,10-henanthroline as ligands. The crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystal belongs to the triclinic system with space group P , a = 1.08096(8), b = 1.09619(8), c = 1.09740(8) nm, α = 79.0600(1), β = 71.0450(1), γ = 62.0540(1)o, V = 1.08533(1) nm3, Dc = 1.421 g/cm3, Z = 2, F(000) = 484, GOOF = 1.036, the final R = 0.0363 and wR = 0.0961. The crystal structure shows that two neighboring sodium(Ⅰ) ions are linked together by two bridging water molecules, and each end position is coordinated with one 1,10-phenanthroline molecule and one 2-benzoylbenzoato to form a binuclear structure. Each sodium(Ⅰ) ion in the molecule is coordinated with five atoms to give a distorted trigonal bipyramid. The fluorescence property of the title complex is also discussed.

Star-shaped oligothiophenes with hexakis(fluoren-2-yl)benzene (HFB) as cores were designed and synthesized. Grafting thiophene units to HFB results in a bond flattening of the core, and makes the molecules a flipping-twist shape. Their thermal, photophysical and electrochemical properties were studied. Highly cross-linked conjugated polymers can be produced by electropolymerization of T1-T3.     

A quick and green ionic liquid-mediated approach for the synthesis of high-performance, organosoluble and thermally stable polyimides

Three diamine monomers with different derivatives of imidazole heterocyclic ring and meta-linked aryl ethers were synthesized and used in polycodensation reaction with various commercial dianhydrides for preparation of a series of novel poly(ether-imide) (PEI)s. The polycodensation reactions were carried out by using conventional method and in a green medium of ionic liquid (IL) without using NMP-pyridine-acetic anhydride. The PEIs were obtained in good yields (80% 96%) with moderate viscosity (0.48 0.66 dL/g) in a shorter reaction time (10 h) in IL as compared with the conventional method (36 h). All of the polymers were amorphous in nature, showed excellent solubility in amide-type polar aprotic solvents with ability to form tough and flexible films, and excellent thermal stability with Tgs in the range of 212 340 ℃ and 10% weight loss temperature (T10) up to 570℃ in N 2 and 528 ℃ in air.
