The enolate anion of chlorophyll b (Chl b) has been synthesized under deoxygenated conditions and its electronic structure characterized for the first time by 1H NMR and electronic absorption spectroscopy. The formation of the enolate anion caused a marked perturbation to the 18 π-electron [18]diazaannulene aromatic pathway of Chl b. This perturbation appeared as noticeable upfield shifts, exceeding 1 ppm, for the meso-CH protons of the Chl b enolate anion. Nevertheless, the enolate anion remained diatropic, maintaining aromaticity in its delocalized macrocycle. 相似文献
Three-component molecular systems (redox active subunit)-spacer-(light-emitting fragment) can operate as fluorescence switches, following the alternate addition of an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent (or the adjustment of the potential of the working electrode in an electrolysis experiment). The redox active subunit typically consists of a metal centred redox couple (M(n+1)+/Mn+), encircled by a macrocyclic receptor, and switching efficiency requires that one of the two oxidation states quenches the proximate fluorophore and the other does not. Four ON/OFF systems, based on either the CuII/CuI or NiIII/NiII couple, will be discussed. The nature of the quenching process responsible for the OFF state, either electron transfer or energy transfer, is related to the length and to the flexibility-rigidity of the spacer. 相似文献
The redox coupleb-nor-biladiene-ac (2)/b-nor-bilatriene-abc (3) exhibits an oxidative half wave potential of 800 mV in acetonitrile solution. It is demonstrated that it can be used as an extremely efficient electron carrier through bulk membranes. Whereas2 is not suitable as a ligand in carrier mediated cation transport,3 is a medium suited carrier for Cu(II) or Zn(II) ions, however, it is the most efficient one found so far for transport of Hg(II) ions. A 1:1 zinc chelate of3 is isolated and characterized. it is deduced to represent a polymer consisting of about 73 monomer units. 相似文献
Nb4W13O47, a member of the solid solution series Nb8−nW9+nO47 (0?n?5), crystallizes in a threefold superstructure of the tetragonal tungsten bronze structure. While the oxidation of this reduced phase at TOX=1200 °C leads to a separation into the thermodynamically stable phases, lower oxidation temperatures result in products that comprise new structural elements and ordering variants. The characterization of the oxidation products obtained at TOX=1000 °C was performed by scanning transmission electron microscopy applying a high-angle annular dark field detector. At the selected imaging conditions (Z contrast), not only the metal positions are revealed by this technique but valuable additional information about the elemental distribution can be obtained simultaneously. 相似文献
When dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalene dianion (3) was allowed to react with either iron (III) chloride or ethylene bromide, a one-electron transfer from3 took place readily to give the radical anion11. Further electron transfer from11 did not occur presumably due to the antiaromatic character of dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalene (1) that would have resulted. The radical anion11 underwent further transformation by hydrogen abstraction from the solvent to give 5,10-dihydroindeno[1,2-b]indole (2) and by dimerization to themeso and (R,S) isomers of 5,5,10,10-tetrahydro-10,10-biindeno[1,2-b]indole (4 a and4 b) respectively.
Elektronentransfer von Dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalen-Dianion: Ein Versuch zur Synthese von Dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalen
Zusammenfassung Die Reaktion von Dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalen-Dianion (3) mit Eisen (III) oder Ethylenbromid ergab einen Ein-Elektronentransfer zum Radikalanion11. Ein weiterer Elektronentransfer fand nicht statt, vermutlich wegen des antiaromatischen Charakters von Dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalen (1), das dabei entstehen müßte. Das Radikalanion11 ergab unter Wasserstoffentzug aus dem Lösungsmittel 5,10-Dihydroindeno[1,2-b]indol (2), das weiter zummeso- bzw. (R,S)-5,5,10,10-tetrahydro-10,10-biindeno[1,2-b]indol (4 a bzw.4 b) dimerisierte.
has been determined by gas electron diffraction (GED) combined with microwave (MW) spectroscopic data. Ab initio calculations at the HF/3–21G* level were carried out and used as structural constraints in the data analysis. The torsional vibration of the methyl group was treated as a large-amplitude motion. The structural parameters were determined to be: rg(S---C2) = 1.719(2) Å, rg(C2=C3) = 1.370(3) Å, rg(C3---C6) = 1.497(6) Å, rg(C2---H) = 1.101(5) Å, CSC = 91.6(2)°, SC2C3 = 113.3(5)°, SC5C4 = 111.3(3)°, C2C3C6 = 123.2(11)° and C3C6H = 112(2)°. The values of r(S---C2) − r(S---C5) and r(C2=C3) − r(C4=C5) were fixed at the 3–21G* value of 0.002Å. Parenthesized values are the estimated limits of error (3σ) referring to the last significant digit. 相似文献

In many-electron atoms, the average electron momentum p represents the mean momentum of a single electron when all the electron motions are averaged. If any two electrons are considered simultaneously, however, the average momentum p splits into two different momenta, low momentum p< and high momentum p>. For the 102 atoms He through Lr in their ground states, the momenta p< and p> are systematically examined at the Hartree–Fock limit level. It is also shown that the sum p>+p< and the difference p>–p< of the two momenta constitute upper and lower bounds to the electron-pair relative momentum p12=|p1–p2| and to the electron-pair center-of-mass momentum P=|p1+p2|/2. The tightness of the bounds is discussed for the 102 atoms. 相似文献
An overview is given on recent advances of density functional theory (DFT) as applied to the calculation of nuclear magnetic
resonance (NMR) chemical shifts and electron spin resonance (ESR) g-tensors. This is a new research area that has seen tremendous progress and success recently; we try to present some of these
developments. DFT accounts for correlation effects efficiently. Therefore, it is the only first-principle method that can
handle NMR calculations on large systems like transition-metal complexes. Relativistic effects become important for heavier
element compounds; here we show how they can be accounted for. The ESR g-tensor is related conceptually to the NMR shielding, and results of g-tensor calculations are presented. DFT has been very successful in its application to magnetic properties, for metal complexes
in particular. However, there are still certain shortcomings and limitations, e.g., in the exchange-correlation functional,
that are discussed as well.

The end-group dominated molecular orientation in the azobenzene self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), CnAzoC2SH (n=1-4), on gold was evaluated for the first time by grazing incidence reflection absorption FTIR spectroscopy (RA-FTIR). All these azobenzene SAMs have highly-organized and closely-parked structures, with the molecule tilting away gradually from surface normal direction with the increase of end group alkyl length. 相似文献
