Highly Emissive Fused Heterocyclic Alkynylgold(III) Complexes for Multiple Color Emission Spanning from Green to Red for Solution‐Processable Organic Light‐Emitting Devices

A new class of fused heterocyclic tridentate ligand‐containing alkynylgold(III) complexes with tunable emission color has been successfully designed and synthesized. Structural modification of the σ‐donating fused heterocyclic alkynyl ligands, including substituted fluorene, carbazole, and triphenylamine, enables a large spectral shift of about 110 nm (ca. 3310 cm^?1) that covers the green to red region to be realized with the same tridentate ligand‐containing alkynylgold(III) complexes in solid‐state thin films. Interestingly, the energy of the excimeric emission can be controlled by the rational design of the fused heterocyclic alkynyl ligands. Superior solution‐processable organic light‐emitting devices (OLEDs) with high external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) of 12.2, 13.5, 9.3, and 5.2 % were obtained with green, yellow, orange, and red emission. These high EQE values are comparable to those of the vacuum‐deposited OLEDs based on structurally related alkynylgold(III) complexes.     

Heterobimetallic Catalysis: Platinum‐Gold‐Catalyzed Tandem Cyclization/C−X Coupling Reaction of (Hetero)Arylallenes with Nucleophiles

Heterobimetallic catalysis offers new opportunities for reactivity and selectivity but still presents challenges, and only a few metal combinations have been explored so far. Reported here is a Pt‐Au heterobimetallic catalyst system for the synthesis of a family of multi‐heteroaromatic structures through tandem cyclization/C?X coupling reaction. Au‐catalyzed 6‐endo‐cyclization takes place as the first fast step. Pt‐Au clusters are proposed to be responsible for the increased reactivity in the second step, that is, the intermolecular nucleophilic addition which occurs through an outer‐sphere mechanism by hybrid homogeneous‐heterogeneous catalysis.     

Au57Ag53(C≡CPh)40Br12: A Large Nanocluster with C1 Symmetry

The controlled synthesis and structure determination of a bimetallic nanocluster Au₅₇Ag₅₃(C≡CPh)₄₀Br₁₂ (Au₅₇Ag₅₃) is presented. The metal core has a four‐shell Au₂M₃@Au₃₄@Ag₅₁ @Au₂₀ (M=1/3 Au+2/3 Ag) architecture. In contrast to the previously reported large nanoclusters that have highly symmetric kernel structures, the metal atoms in Au₅₇Ag₅₃ are arranged in an irregular manner with C₁ symmetry. This cluster exhibits excellent thermal stability and is robust under oxidative or basic conditions. The silver precursors play a key role in dictating the structures of the nanoclusters, which suggests the importance of the counteranions used.     

介孔Al2O3负载纳米Au催化剂用于低温催化氧化CO

 用不同模板剂合成了具有较高比表面积和较多表面碱性位的介孔Al2O3载体,并采用均相沉积-沉淀法制备了Al2O3负载纳米Au催化剂,对制备的介孔Al2O3载体及相应催化剂采用低温N2吸附法、TEM和XPS等手段进行了表征,考察了载体表面碱性对纳米Au粒子在载体表面的沉积及相应催化剂在CO氧化反应中催化性能的影响. 以CO2-TPD法测定载体表面碱性,结果表明,介孔氧化铝的表面碱性与其合成过程中所用的模板剂有关. 以表面碱性位较丰富的介孔Al2O3为载体制备的催化剂表面Au粒子分布较均匀且粒径(3.1～3.2 nm)较小,在CO完全氧化反应中催化活性最高,表明载体表面的碱性位有利于稳定其表面沉积的纳米Au粒子. XPS分析结果表明,催化剂表面的Au主要以Au0金属态形式存在,它在CO氧化反应中表现出较高的催化活性.

Synthesis of gold–polyaniline nanocomposites by complexation

Complexation synthesis methods have been examined in the preparation of nanogold–polyaniline systems. This extends work previously reported on the use of a spontaneous redox coupling of aniline polymerization to the reduction of a gold salt added to the monomer and mixed initially at the molecular level. The extension involves the addition of an additional reducing agent in the form of borohydride. The end product of the nanoparticle Au–PANI composite is very much a function of the borohydride : Au and N : Au ratios used in the synthesis. The size of the resulting gold particles can be directly tuned in the diameter range 2–10 nm by adjusting the borohydride : Au ratio used. Thorough characterization of the structures of the composites has been undertaken. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Metallosupramolecular Structures Derived from a Series of Diphosphine‐bridged Digold(I) Metalloligands with Terminal d‐Penicillamine

In this report, we describe our recent work on the development of a new family of chiral heteroleptic digold(I) metalloligands with mixed diphosphine and d ‐penicillaminate (d ‐pen), [Au₂(dppx)(d ‐pen‐S)₂]^2– (dppx = PPh₂(CH₂)_nPPh₂, n = 1–5) and their application for the construction of chiral multinuclear and metallosupramolecular structures. The reactions of the metalloligands with 3d metal ions produce a variety of chiral heterobimetallic structures retaining the digold(I) metalloligand structure, ranging from discrete trinuclear to infinite helix structures that depend on the type of dppx. In addition, monophosphine and triphosphine analogues of the metalloligands were designed, and their coordination behavior is discussed to show the essential properties and potential extensibility of this class of metalloligands.

Characterization and Electrocatalytic Activity of Nanocomposites Consisting of Nanosized Cobalt Tetraaminophenoxy Phthalocyanine,Multi‐walled Carbon Nanotubes and Gold Nanoparticles

Glassy carbon electrodes were modified with composites containing cobalt tetraaminophenoxy phthalocyanine nanoparticles (CoTAPhPc NP ), multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and gold nanorods (AuNRs). The modified electrodes were studied for their electrocatalytic behavior towards the reduction of hydrogen peroxide. Phthalocyanine nanoparticles significantly improved electron transfer kinetics as compared to phthalocyanines which are not in the nanoparticle form when alone or in the presence of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). CoTAPhPc NP ‐MWCNT‐GCE proved to be suitable for hydrogen peroxide detection with a catalytic rate constant of 3.45×10³ M^?1 s^?1 and a detection limit of 1.61×10^?7 M. Adsorption Gibbs free energy ΔG^o was found to be ?19.22 kJ mol^?1 for CoTAPhPc NP ‐MWCNT‐GCE.
