文摘Two Gd_(2)complexes,namely[Gd_(2)(dbm)_(2)(HL_(1))_(2)(CH_(3)OH)_(2)]·4CH_(3)OH(1)and[Gd_(2)(dbm)_(2)(L_(2))_(2)(CH_(3)OH)_(2)]·2CH_(3)OH(2),where H_(3)L_(1)=(Z)-N'-[4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzylidene]-2-hydroxyacetohydrazide,H_(2)L_(2)=(E)-N'-(5-bromo-2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)nicotinohydrazide,Hdbm=dibenzoylmethane,have been constructed by adopting the solvothermal method.Structural characterization unveils that both complexes 1 and 2 are constituted by two Gd^(3+)ions,two dbm-ions,two CH_(3)OH molecules,and two polydentate Schiff-base ligands(HL_(1)^(2-)or L_(2)^(2-)).In addition,complex 1 contains four free methanol molecules,whereas complex 2 harbors two free methanol molecules.By investigating the interactions between complexes 1 and 2 and four types of bacteria(Bacillus subtilis,Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aureus,Candida albicans),it was found that both complexes 1 and 2 exhibited potent antibacte-rial activities.The interaction mechanisms between the ligands H_(3)L_(1),H_(2)L_(2),complexes 1 and 2,and calf thymus DNA(CT-DNA)were studied using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy,fluorescence titration,and cyclic voltammetry.The results demonstrated that both complexes 1 and 2 can intercalate into CT-DNA molecules,thereby inhibiting bacterial proliferation to achieve the antibacterial effects.CCDC:2401116,1;2401117,2.

文摘Six new lanthanide complexes:[Ln(3,4-DEOBA)3(4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy)]2·2C_(2)H_(5)OH,[Ln=Dy(1),Eu(2),Tb(3),Sm(4),Ho(5),Gd(6);3,4-DEOBA-=3,4-diethoxybenzoate,4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine]were successfully synthesized by the volatilization of the solution at room temperature.The crystal structures of six complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technology.The results showed that the complexes all have a binuclear structure,and the structures contain free ethanol molecules.Moreover,the coordination number of the central metal of each structural unit is eight.Adjacent structural units interact with each other through hydrogen bonds and further expand to form 1D chain-like and 2D planar structures.After conducting a systematic study on the luminescence properties of complexes 1-4,their emission and excitation spectra were obtained.Experimental results indicated that the fluorescence lifetimes of complexes 2 and 3 were 0.807 and 0.845 ms,respectively.The emission spectral data of complexes 1-4 were imported into the CIE chromaticity coordinate system,and their corre sponding luminescent regions cover the yellow light,red light,green light,and orange-red light bands,respectively.Within the temperature range of 299.15-1300 K,the thermal decomposition processes of the six complexes were comprehensively analyzed by using TG-DSC/FTIR/MS technology.The hypothesis of the gradual loss of ligand groups during the decomposition process was verified by detecting the escaped gas,3D infrared spectroscopy,and ion fragment information detected by mass spectrometry.The specific decomposition path is as follows:firstly,free ethanol molecules and neutral ligands are removed,and finally,acidic ligands are released;the final product is the corresponding metal oxide.CCDC:2430420,1;2430422,2;2430419,3;2430424,4;2430421,5;2430423,6.

文摘While biomaterials are endowed with sophisticated functions by the temporal dynamics and autonomy derived from non-equilibrium assemblies in biological systems,fabricating advanced materials counterparts with these features through kinetic control remains rare.Herein,we report a non-equilibrium hydrogel that exhibits autonomous time-dependent ultrabright fluorescence(quantum yield 0.90),achieved through the kinetically controlled incorporation of thermodynamic equilibrium host-vip complexes into a poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)(PHEMA)network.Transient complexes are programmed by coupling rapid assembly kinetics with the slow competitive binding of the polymer matrix.This kinetic mismatch converts a thermodynamic equilibrium supramolecular system into a non-equilibrium state,generating temporally dynamic fluorescence that cyclically shifts from yellow to green and self-reverts.The programmed temporal dynamics endow the hydrogel with high potential for information encryption applications.
文摘The complexes 1-4 of cyclobutanocucurbit[5]uril(CyB5Q[5])with Na^(+)/K^(+)have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The results show that although the inorganic salts are used when the cations are the same and the anions are different,in complex 1,Na^(+)closes one port of CyB5Q[5]through Na—O seven coordination bonds to form a molecular bowl;in complex 3,Na^(+)completely closes the two ports of CyB5Q[5]to form a molecular capsule with six Na—O coordination bonds;in complexes 2 and 4,the two ports of CyB5Q[5]are completely closed to form K—O coordinated molecular capsules,but the K^(+)of complex 2 is six-coordinated and that of complex 4 is eight-/nine-coordinated.and complex 4 are connected by three oxygen bridges to form a 1D molecular chain.CCDC:2457122,1;2457121,2;2457400,3;2457120,4.

文摘Enhancing the catalytic activity of catalysts is a core objective in their design and synthesis processes,and the accessibility of active sites is one of the crucial factors determining catalyst activity.Polyoxometalate-based metal-organic complexes(POMOCs)with well-defined structures,which combine the advantages of POMs and MOCs,may offer the possibility to construct catalysts with highly accessible active sites.In this study,a series of POMOCs were successfully designed and synthesized using different POM templates,including[CoII1.5(L)1.5(PMo12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·3H_(2)O(Co-PMo12),[CoII1.5(L)1.5(PW12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·3H_(2)O(Co-PW12),[CoII2(L)2-(SiW12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·11H_(2)O(Co-SiW12),and H[CoII2.5(L)3-(P2W18O62)(H_(2)O)8]·10H_(2)O(Co-P2W18),which were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,powder X-ray diffraction,and single crystal X-ray diffraction.The differences in catalytic activity among the four POMOCs for olefin epoxidation were attributed to the distinct accessibility of Co(II)sites upon thermal activation.Among them,Co-P2W18 achieved a remarkable 99%yield of 1,2-epoxycyclooctane within 3 h at room temperature using O_(2)as the oxidant,owing to its highly accessible unsaturated Co(II)sites.Co-P2W18 exhibits significantly superior catalytic activity for the cyclooctene epoxidation reaction compared to most reported catalysts.Additionally,the reaction mechanism was investigated using density functional theory.

文摘Charge-transfer complexes(CTCs)have emerged as promising n-type organic thermoelectric(TE)materials due to their inherent high electrical conductivity and tunable transport polarities.In this study,we performed a comprehensive first-principles investigation on the TE properties of nine CTCs comprised of 2,7-dialkyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophenes(CnBTBT,n=4,8,12)as donors and fluorinated derivatives of tetracyanoquinodimethane(F_(m)TCNQ,m=0,2,4)as acceptors,aiming to identify high-performance n-type organic TE materials and elucidate the underlying structure-property relationships.Our calculation results,based on the Boltzmann transport equation and deformation potential theory,reveal that the length of the alkyl side chains and the number of fluorine substitutions significantly impact their electronic structures and TE properties.Notably,the CnBTBT-F_(m)TCNQ CTCs with shorter alkyl chains and more fluorine substitution demonstrate superior n-type characteristics,particularly C4BTBT-F4TCNQ,which achieves an excellent power factor of 671µW cm^(-1) K^(-2) at an optimal charge carrier concentration.Our findings not only clarify the critical role of molecular engineering in CTC-based TE materials but also provide valuable guidance for developing high-efficiency organic TE materials with versatile practical applications.
文摘A series of blue and blue‑green Ir(Ⅲ)complexes has been investigated theoretically to explore their electronic structures,photophysical properties,efficiency roll‑off effect,and thermal activation delayed fluorescence(TADF)properties.All calculations were performed using density functional theory(DFT)and time‑dependent density functional theory(TDDFT).Calculations for electronic structures,frontier molecular orbital characteristics(which determine the efficiency roll‑off effect of the complexes),and photophysical properties were conducted using the Gaussian 09 software package.The calculation of spin‑orbit coupling matrix elements<T|HSOC|S>,which determine the TADF properties of the complexes,was performed using the ORCA software package.The calculation results show that the auxiliary ligand tetraphenylimidodiphosphinate(tpip),a strong electron‑withdrawing group,can mitigate the efficiency roll‑off effect of the complex.Furthermore,TADF is observed in one of the designed complexes,(F_(3)Phppy)_(2)Ir(tpip),where F_(3)Phppy=2‑[4‑(2,4,6‑trifluorophenyl)phenyl]pyridine.

文摘The self-assembly reactions between mixed-ligand and tetrahydrate dysprosium acetate in the presence of mixed organic solvents lead to two structural similar dinuclear dysprosium complexes with composition formulas of Dy_(2)(L_1)_(2)(L_(2))_(2)(CH_(3)OH)_(2)·CH_(2)Cl_(2)·CH_(3)OH(1) and Dy_(2)(L_1)_(2)(L_(3))_(2)(CH_(3)OH)_(2)·CH_(3)CN(2),where L_1,L_(2) and L_(3) represent the deprotonated form of 4-tert-butyl-2-(7-methoxybenzo[d]oxazol-2-yl)phenol,(E)-1-(((3,5-di-tert-butyI-2-hydroxyphenyI)imino)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol and(E)-2,4-di-tertbutyl-6-((2-hydroxybenzylidene)amino)phenol.The tiny difference of the core structure of 1 and 2 is derived from the steric hindrance of Schiff base ligands L_(2) and L_(3).Dynamic magnetic measurements reveal that 1 and 2 show frequency-dependent out-of-phase alternating-current susceptibility signal peaks at different temperatures under zero dc field,diagnostic of single-molecule magnet behavior.The experimental derived energy barrier to magnetization reversal for 1 and 2 is 108(1),47(2) and 33(3) K.Ab initio CASSCF calculations performed on 1 and 2 suggest that the origin of the difference in magnetic properties originates from the variation in the single-ion anisotropy that arises due to minor structural variation.Further,the equation to calculate the effective energy barrier for Dy_(2) proposed earlier is found to yield an excellent agreement with the experimental results.Solid state fluorescence measurements performed on 1 and 2 demonstrate that both exhibit two ligands centered components of fluorescent emissive,in addition,with different emitting colors and chromaticity coordinates.The discrepancy of fluorescence and single molecule magnet behavior showed by 1 and 2 can be attributed to the steric hindrance effect of Schiff base ligands.

文摘Two novel zinc Schiff-base complexes, bis-(N-(2-hydroxybenzidene)-p-aminodimethylaniline)zinc(II) (2) and bis-(N-(2-hydroxy-1-naphthidene)-p-aminodimethylaniline)zinc(II) (4) were designed and synthesized. Both the complexes exhibit good solubility in organic solvents and excellent thermal stabilities. A single crystal of 2 was grown and its crystalline structure was determined from X-ray diffraction data. Analysis of the electronic structures of both the zinc complexes calculated by density functional theory reveals a localization of orbital. The UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence profiles of 4 in thin film are similar to those of 2, but the emission for 4 is red-shifted compared to 2. Three-layered devices with a configuration of ITO/NPB/2/Alq 3 /LiF/Al and ITO/NPB/4/Alq 3 /LiF/Al show a yellow and red emission, respectively.

文摘To expand the study on the structures and biological activities of the anthracyclines anticancer drugs and reduce their toxic side effects,the new anthraquinone derivatives,9‑pyridylanthrahydrazone(9‑PAH)and 9,10‑bispyridylanthrahydrazone(9,10‑PAH)were designed and synthesized.Utilizing 9‑PAH and 9,10‑PAH as promising anticancer ligands,their respective copper complexes,namely[Cu(L1)Cl_(2)]Cl(1)and{[Cu_(4)(μ_(2)‑Cl)_(3)Cl_(4)(9,10‑PAH)_(2)(DMSO)_(2)]Cl_(2)}_(n)(2),were subsequently synthesized,where the new ligand L1 is formed by coupling two 9‑PAH ligands in the coordination reaction.The chemical and crystal structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by IR,MS,elemental analysis,and single‑crystal X‑ray diffraction.Complex 1 forms a mononuclear structure.L1 coordinates with Cu through its three N atoms,together with two Cl atoms,to form a five‑coordinated square pyramidal geometry.Complex 2 constitutes a polymeric structure,wherein each structural unit centrosymmetrically encompasses two five‑coordinated binuclear copper complexes(Cu1,Cu2)of 9,10‑PAH,with similar square pyramidal geometry.A chlorine atom(Cl_(2)),located at the symmetry center,bridges Cu1 and Cu1A to connect the two binuclear copper structures.Meanwhile,the two five‑coordinated Cu2 atoms symmetrically bridge the adjacent structural units via one coordinated Cl atom,respectively,thus forming a 1D chain‑like polymeric structure.In vitro anticancer activity assessments revealed that 1 and 2 showed significant cytotoxicity even higher than cisplatin.Specifically,the IC_(50)values of 2 against HeLa‑229 and SK‑OV‑3 cancer cell lines were determined to be(5.92±0.32)μmol·L^(-1)and(6.48±0.39)μmol·L^(-1),respectively.2 could also block the proliferation of HeLa‑229 cells in S phase and significantly induce cell apoptosis.In addition,fluorescence quenching competition experiments suggested that 2 might interact with DNA by an intercalative binding mode,offering insights into its underlying anticancer mechanism.CCDC:2388918,1;2388919,2.

文摘Metal complexes hold significant promise in tumor diagnosis and treatment.However,their potential applications in photodynamic therapy(PDT)are hindered by issues such as poor photostability,low yield of reactive oxygen species(ROS),and aggregation-induced ROS quenching.To address these challenges,we present a molecular self-assembly strategy utilizing aggregation-induced emission(AIE)conjugates for metal complexes.As a proof of concept,we synthesized a mitochondrial-targeting cyclometalated Ir(Ⅲ)photosensitizer Ir-TPE.This approach significantly enhances the photodynamic effect while mitigating the dark toxicity associated with AIE groups.Ir-TPE readily self-assembles into nanoaggregates in aqueous solution,leading to a significant production of ROS upon light irradiation.Photoirradiated Ir-TPE triggers multiple modes of death by excessively accumulating ROS in the mitochondria,resulting in mitochondrial DNA damage.This damage can lead to ferroptosis and autophagy,two forms of cell death that are highly cytotoxic to cancer cells.The aggregation-enhanced photodynamic effect of Ir-TPE significantly enhances the production of ROS,leading to a more pronounced cytotoxic effect.In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate this aggregation-enhanced PDT approach achieves effective in situ tumor eradication.This study not only addresses the limitations of metal complexes in terms of low ROS production due to aggregation but also highlights the potential of this strategy for enhancing ROS production in PDT.
