Assembly and structures of five new Cu(II) complexes based on the V-shaped building block [Cu(dbsf)]

Five new copper(II) complexes [Cu(dbsf)(H₂O)]_n · 0.5n(i-C₃H₇OH) (1), [Cu(dbsf)(4,4′-bpy)_0.5]_n · nH₂O (2), [Cu(dbsf)(2,2′-bpy)(H₂O)]₂ · (n-C₃H₇OH) · 0.5H₂O (3), [Cu(dbsf)(phen)(H₂O)]₂ · 1.5H₂O (4) and [Cu(dbsf)(2,2′-bpy)(H₂O)]_n · n(i-C₃H₇OH) (5) (H₂dbsf = 4,4′-dicarboxybiphenyl sulfone, 4,4′-bpy = 4,4′-bipyridine, 2,2′-bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, i-C₃H₇OH = isopropanol, n-C₃H₇OH = n-propanol) have been synthesized under hydro/solvothermal conditions. All of the complexes are assembled from V-shaped building blocks, [Cu(dbsf)]. Complex 1 is composed of 1D double-chains. In complex 2, dbsf²⁻ ligands and 4,4′-bpy ligands connect Cu(II) ions into catenane-like 2D layers. These catenane-like 2D layers stack in an ABAB fashion to form a 3D supramolecular network. Complexes 3 and 4 are 0D dimers, in which two [Cu(dbsf)] units encircle to form dimetal macrocyclic molecules. However, in complex 5, the V-shaped building blocks [Cu(dbsf)] are joined head-to-tail, resulting in the formation of infinite tooth-like chains. The different structures of complexes 3 and 5 may be attributed to the different solvent molecules included.

Self-assembling bacterial pores as components of nanobiosensors for the detection of single peptide molecules

Nano-sized bacterial pores were inserted into a lipid membrane as a nanobiosensor for the detection of single peptide molecules. Due to the intrinsic properties of single-channel conductance, the transit of individual molecules through the pore can be studied. The analysis of both the blockage current and duration is able to provide specific structural information and allows the detection of specific peptides in bulk mixtures.

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) in chemistry and biology: Non-F?rster distance dependence of the FRET rate

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a popular tool to study equilibrium and dynamical properties of polymers and biopolymers in condensed phases and is now widely used in conjunction with single molecule spectroscopy. In the data analysis, one usually employs the F?rster expression which predicts (l/R ⁶) distance dependence of the energy transfer rate. However, critical analysis shows that this e_xpression can be of rather limited validity in many cases. We demonstrate this by explicitly considering a donor-acceptor system, polyfluorene (PF₆)-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP), where the size of both donor and acceptor is comparable to the distance separating them. In such cases, one may expect much weaker distance (as l/R ² or even weaker) dependence. We have also considered the case of energy transfer from a dye to a nanoparticle. Here we find l/R ⁴ distance dependence at large separations, completely different from F?rster. We also discuss recent application of FRET to study polymer conformational dynamics. Dedicated to Prof J Gopalakrishnan on his 62nd birthday.     

Periodane—An unexpectedly stable molecule of unique composition

Structure, bonding characteristics, and reaction energies as well as optical, vibrational, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) properties of the hitherto unknown molecule LiBeBCNOF, called periodane, have been calculated by quantum chemical methods. It can be shown that periodane is stable enough to be produced and identified experimentally. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2006     

Coupled Rearrangement Channel Calculation of the Hyperfine Structure of the dtμ Molecule

Hyperfine structure splittings are calculated for the J = v = 1 state of the dtμ molecule. The splittings are determined by the accurate three-body wave function obtained by coupled rearrangement channel method using the updated physical constants. The result obtained is in good agreement with the previous calculation within ∼0.07 meV. The discrepancy is due to the accuracy of the three-body wave function. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
