The calculated interaction energies with basis set super-position error correction of the four IXBs complexes are 218.87, 219.48, 159.18, and 143.05kJ/mol （MP2/6-311＋＋G（d, p））, respectively. The relative stabilities of the four complexes increased in the order： CH3＋ … BrCN〈CH3＋…- BrNC〈CH3＋… BrH≈CH3＋ …BrCCH. Natural bond orbital theory analysis and the chemical shifts calculation of the related atoms revealed that the charges flow from Br-Y to CH3e. Here, the Br of Br-Y acts as both a halogen bond donor and an electron donor. Therefore, compared with conventional halogen bonds, the IXBs complexes formed between Br-Y and CH3＋. Atoms-in-molecules theory has been used to investigate the topological properties of the critical points of the four IXBs structures which have more covalent content.展开更多

Based on the experimental data of the acute toxicity to Tetrahymena pyriformis （-lgEC_50）, three-parameter （energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital （E_LUMO）, the molecular volume （V）, and the lowest negative charge （Q_min）） dependent equations were developed using structural parameters as theoretical descriptors. Especially, -lgEC_50dependent equation calculated at the B3LYP/6-31G^＊＊ level is more advantageous than the others in view of their correlation and predictive abilities. This dependent equation was validated by variance inflation factors （VIF） and t-test methods. Upon comparison, the predictive abilities of our work are all more advantageous than those calculated from the semi-empirical PM3 method.展开更多

The molecular electrostatic potentials, geometrical parameters and interaction energy of halogen and hydrogen bonding complexes combined with natural bond orbital analysis are obtained. The results indicate that both halogen and hydrogen bonding interactions obey the order CI〈Br〈I, and hydrogen bonding is stronger than the corresponding halogen bond- ing. So, hydrogen bonding complexes should be dominant in trihalomethanes. However, it is possible that halogen bonding complex is competitive, even preponderant, in triiodomethane due to the similar interaction energy. This work might provide useful information on specific solvent effects as well as for understanding the mechanism of nitroxide radicals as a bioprobe to interact with the halogenated compounds in biological and biochemical fields.展开更多

Using B3LYP method of DFT in the Gaussian 03 program, we obtain the structural and thermodynamic descriptors of 16 halogenated benzenes by fully-optimized calculation at the 6-311G＊＊ level. Taking the structural and thermodynamic descriptors as theoretical descriptors, the 2D QSAR model （R2 = 0.983） was established, which can be utilized to predict -lgEC50 of halogenated benzene according to the corrected linear solvation energy theory based on the experimental data of-lgECs0. In addition, the relationship between the toxicity and 3D spatial structure of the compound is studied by comparing the molecular similarity index analysis （CoMSIA） of 3D-QSAR method. By cross validation, the correlation coefficient q2 of CoMSIA model is 0.687, and the conventional correlation coefficient R2 = 0.958. The model is stable and reliable with great predictive ability. The 3D-QSAR model shows that the toxicity of halogenated benzene compound is mainly affected by the characteristics of hydrophobie field of the substituted halogens.展开更多

Findings indicated that complex 3 was a dinuclear molecule, and the center Dy3＋ was eight-coordinated. Each dinuclear units could be connected by H bond and halogen-halogen interactions. Luminescent property of complex 2 suggested the typical intense emissions of Eu3＋ ions. Thermal analysis showed that the complexes decomposed in three steps： the coordination water was lost firstly then the neutral ligand 5,5’dmebipy was lost and lastly the 2,3-DClBA ligand was lost.展开更多

The S. mutans biofilms were formed in a 24-well cell culture cluster. Test groups consisted of biofilms divided into four groups： group 1： no photosensitizer or light irradiation treatment （control group）; group 2： photosensitizer treatment alone; group 3： light irradiation alone; group 4： photosensitizer treatment and light irradiation. After treatments, the numbers of colony-forming unit （CFU） were counted and samples were examined by confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy （CLSM）. Only group 4 （combined treatment） resulted in significant increases in cell death, with rates of 75% and 55% after 8 h of incubation, and 74% and 42% at 12 h, for biofilms formed in brain-heart infusion （BHI） broth supplemented with 0% or O. 1% sucrose, respectively. Therefore, PDT of S. mutans biofilms using a combination of erythrosine and a dental halogen curing unit, both widely used in dental clinics, resulted in a significant increase in cell death. The PDT effects are decreased in biofilms that form in the presence of sucrose.展开更多

In the present study, geometrical optimization and electrostatic potential calculations have been performed for 42 halogenated anisoles at the HF/6-31 G^＊ level. A number of statistically based parameters have been obtained. By multiple regression method, linear relationships between the gas-chromatographic relative retention time （RRT） and structural descriptors have been established for the training set of 32 halogenated anisoles. The result showed that the parameters derived from electrostatic potentials （ESPs） together with the molecular volume （Vmc） could be well used to express the quantitative structure-RRT relationships of halogenated anisoles. The best two-variable regression model gives a correlation coefficient of 0.980 and a standard deviation of 0.07, and the leave-one-out cross-validated correlation coefficient is 0.975. The goodness of the model has been further validated through exploring the predictive power for the testing set of 10 halogenated anisoles.展开更多

文摘Organic solar cells(OSCs)have emerged as promising candidates for next‐generation photovoltaics,yet traditional bulk heterojunction(BHJ)devices face inherent limitations in morphology control and phase separation.Layer‐by‐layer(LbL)processing with a p–i–n configuration offers an innovative solution by enabling precise control over donor–acceptor distribution and interfacial characteristics.Here,we systematically investigate nine halogen‐functionalized additives across three categories—methyl halides,thiophene halides,and benzene halides—for optimizing LbL device performance.These additives,distinguished by their diverse thermal properties and solid–liquid transformation capabilities below 100°C,are functionalized as both nucleation centers and morphology‐modulating plasticizers during thermal treatment.Among them,2‐bromo‐5‐iodothiophene(BIT)demonstrates superior performance through synergistic effects of its bromine–iodine combination and thiophene core in mediating donor–acceptor interactions.LbL devices processed with BIT achieve exceptional metrics in the PM6/L8‐BO system,including a open‐circuit voltage of 0.916 V,a short‐circuit current density of 27.12 mA cm−2,and an fill factor of 80.97%,resulting in an impressive power conversion efficiency of 20.12%.This study establishes a molecular design strategy for halogen‐functionalized additives that simultaneously optimizes both donor and acceptor layers while maintaining processing simplicity for potential industrial applications.

文摘Halogenated aromatic disinfection byproducts(DBPs)are gradually receiving attention due to their high detection frequency and usually higher toxicity than regulated DBPs.In this study,we established a solid phase extraction(SPE)-LC-MS/MS method to simultaneously trace analyze 59 halogenated aromatic DBPs.The limits of detection and limits of quantification of halogenated aromatic DBPs ranged from 0.03 to 135.23 ng/L and from 0.1 to 450.76 ng/L,respectively.The range of recoveries and relative standard deviation(RSD)in river water were between 72.41%to 119.54%and 1.86%to 16.03%,respectively.Therefore,this method can be used to accurately analyze trace levels of halogenated aromatic DBPs in drinking water.The occurrence and transformation of halogenated aromatic DBPs were explored based on this method.In the chlorinated simulated source water and chlorinated river water,20 and 45 halogenated aromatic DBPs were determined,respectively.The active halogen species(HOCl,HOBr,and HOI)first reacted with natural organic matter(NOM)to form halogenated aromatic DBPs.Then,chlorine further reacted with the halogenated aromatic DBPs to convert them into small-molecule halogenated aliphatic DBPs through oxidation,electrophilic substitution,and hydrolysis reaction,etc.In the chlorinated simulated source water,chlorinated river water,and tap water,the toxicity contribution of bromoacetic acids(Br-HAAs)accounted for themajority(>71.16%).Given that halogenated aromatic DBPs are intermediate products of halogenated aliphatic DBPs,controlling the formation of halogenated aromatic DBPs is beneficial in decreasing the formation of halogenated aliphatic DBPs,thereby diminishing the toxicity of drinking water.

文摘The rovibrational spectra of thioanisole(TA)and its halogenated derivatives,3-fluorothioanisole(3FTA)and 3-chlorothioanisole(3ClTA),were measured using synchrotron-based Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)at the Canadian Light Source.Combined with density functional theory calculations,the stable structures and vibrational modes of TA,3FTA,and 3ClTA in their vibrational states were analyzed.The theoretical vibrational mode frequencies were corrected by simulating the rotational structure of a vibrational band.The contributions of the cis-and trans-isomers of 3FTA and 3ClTA to the FTIR spectra at 298 K were estimated using the Boltzmann distribution,revealing their coexistence in the experimental spectra.The results indicate that both fluorine and chlorine substitution significantly affect the vibrational modes,particularly in the benzene ring.Compared to TA,the FTIR spectra of 3FTA and 3ClTA show changes in the frequencies and intensities of some vibrational modes,with halogen substitution causing specific modes to shift to higher wavenumbers.A comparison of the FTIR spectra of TA,3FTA,and 3ClTA highlights the influence of halogen substitution on vibrational properties,emphasizing how the type and position of the substituent affect frequency shifts and spectral intensities.These findings provide deeper insights into how halogenation alters vibrational spectra,which is crucial for further spectral analysis and molecular structure determination.

文摘Efficient conversion and synergistic solar energy utilization are critical for advancing low-carbon and sustainable development.In this study,two Pt(Ⅱ)-based metal/halogen-bonded organic frameworks(MXOFBen and MXOF-Anth)were designed to enhance photoconversion efficiency and enable multifunctional integration.The ligand L-terpyr is formed by coupling tripyridine with diphenylamine dipyridine,in which the tripyridine effectively acts as a metal-ligand to lower the band gap and promote nonradiative leaps,thereby enhancing the photoconversion ability.Meanwhile,diphenylamine dipyridine serves as a[N…I^(+)…N]halogen-bonding acceptor,imparting superhydrophilicity to the materials and increasing carrier density,further improving photocatalytic performance.Experimental results demonstrate that these two MXOFs achieve impressive interfacial water evaporation efficiencies of up to87.8%and 94.0%,respectively.Additionally,the materials exhibit excellent performance in photothermal power generation and photocatalysis of H_(2)O_(2).Notably,the MXOFs also deliver strong overall performance in integrated systems combining interfacial water evaporation with photothermal power generation or photocatalysis,underscoring their exceptional photoconversion efficiency and multifunctional potential.This work introduces a novel strategy by incorporating metal-ligand and halogen bonds,offering a pathway to enhance photoconversion efficiency and develop versatile materials for advanced solar energy applications,thereby fostering the progress of high-efficiency solar energy conversion and multifunctional organic materials.

文摘Inverse halogen bonds interactions involving Br in the electronic deficiency systems of CH3＋...Br-Y （Y=H, CCH, CN, NC） have been investigated by B3LYP/6- 311＋＋G（d, p） and MP2/6-311＋＋G（d, p） methods. The calculated interaction energies with basis set super-position error correction of the four IXBs complexes are 218.87, 219.48, 159.18, and 143.05kJ/mol （MP2/6-311＋＋G（d, p））, respectively. The relative stabilities of the four complexes increased in the order： CH3＋ … BrCN〈CH3＋…- BrNC〈CH3＋… BrH≈CH3＋ …BrCCH. Natural bond orbital theory analysis and the chemical shifts calculation of the related atoms revealed that the charges flow from Br-Y to CH3e. Here, the Br of Br-Y acts as both a halogen bond donor and an electron donor. Therefore, compared with conventional halogen bonds, the IXBs complexes formed between Br-Y and CH3＋. Atoms-in-molecules theory has been used to investigate the topological properties of the critical points of the four IXBs structures which have more covalent content.

文摘Structural parameters of 22 halogen phenols were computed at four levels using Hartree-Fock and DFT methods. Based on the experimental data of the acute toxicity to Tetrahymena pyriformis （-lgEC_50）, three-parameter （energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital （E_LUMO）, the molecular volume （V）, and the lowest negative charge （Q_min）） dependent equations were developed using structural parameters as theoretical descriptors. Especially, -lgEC_50dependent equation calculated at the B3LYP/6-31G^＊＊ level is more advantageous than the others in view of their correlation and predictive abilities. This dependent equation was validated by variance inflation factors （VIF） and t-test methods. Upon comparison, the predictive abilities of our work are all more advantageous than those calculated from the semi-empirical PM3 method.

文摘The halogen and hydrogen bonding complexes and trihalomethanes （CHX3, X=C1, Br, I） are between 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-noxyl simulated by computational quantum chem- istry. The molecular electrostatic potentials, geometrical parameters and interaction energy of halogen and hydrogen bonding complexes combined with natural bond orbital analysis are obtained. The results indicate that both halogen and hydrogen bonding interactions obey the order CI〈Br〈I, and hydrogen bonding is stronger than the corresponding halogen bond- ing. So, hydrogen bonding complexes should be dominant in trihalomethanes. However, it is possible that halogen bonding complex is competitive, even preponderant, in triiodomethane due to the similar interaction energy. This work might provide useful information on specific solvent effects as well as for understanding the mechanism of nitroxide radicals as a bioprobe to interact with the halogenated compounds in biological and biochemical fields.

文摘In this paper we take photobacterium phosphoreum （T3） as the experimental bacteria, and determine the half-inhibitory concentration （-1gEC50） against the photobacterium phosphoreum of 16 halogenated benzenes. Using B3LYP method of DFT in the Gaussian 03 program, we obtain the structural and thermodynamic descriptors of 16 halogenated benzenes by fully-optimized calculation at the 6-311G＊＊ level. Taking the structural and thermodynamic descriptors as theoretical descriptors, the 2D QSAR model （R2 = 0.983） was established, which can be utilized to predict -lgEC50 of halogenated benzene according to the corrected linear solvation energy theory based on the experimental data of-lgECs0. In addition, the relationship between the toxicity and 3D spatial structure of the compound is studied by comparing the molecular similarity index analysis （CoMSIA） of 3D-QSAR method. By cross validation, the correlation coefficient q2 of CoMSIA model is 0.687, and the conventional correlation coefficient R2 = 0.958. The model is stable and reliable with great predictive ability. The 3D-QSAR model shows that the toxicity of halogenated benzene compound is mainly affected by the characteristics of hydrophobie field of the substituted halogens.

文摘Four lanthanide coordination complexes, namely, [Ln（2,3-DClBA）3（5,5’-dmebipy）（H2O）]2（Ln=Sm（1）, Eu（2）, Dy（3）, Ho（4））; 2,3-DClBA=2,3-dichlorobenzoate; 5,5’-dmebipy=5,5’-dmethylbipyridine） were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Findings indicated that complex 3 was a dinuclear molecule, and the center Dy3＋ was eight-coordinated. Each dinuclear units could be connected by H bond and halogen-halogen interactions. Luminescent property of complex 2 suggested the typical intense emissions of Eu3＋ ions. Thermal analysis showed that the complexes decomposed in three steps： the coordination water was lost firstly then the neutral ligand 5,5’dmebipy was lost and lastly the 2,3-DClBA ligand was lost.

文摘This study investigated the speciation of halogen-specific total organic halogen and disinfection byproducts(DBPs) upon chlorination of natural organic matter(NOM) in the presence of iopamidol and bromide(Br^-).Experiments were conducted with low bromide source waters with different NOM characteristics from Northeast Ohio,USA and varied spiked levels of bromide(2-30 μmol/L) and iopamidol(1-5 μmol/L).Iopamidol was found to be a direct precursor to trihalomethane(THM) and haloacetic acid formation,and in the presence of Br^-favored brominated analogs.The concentration and speciation of DBPs formed were impacted by iopamidol and bromide concentrations,as well as the presence of NOM.As iopamidol increased the concentration of iodinated DBPs(iodo-DBPs) and THMs increased.However,as Br^-concentrations increased,the concentrations of nonbrominated iodo-and chloro-DBPs decreased while brominated-DBPs increased.Regardless of the concentration of either iopamidol or bromide,bromochloroiodomethane(CHBrClI) was the most predominant iodo-DBP formed except at the lowest bromide concentration studied.At relevant concentrations of iopamidol(1 μmol/L) and bromide(2 μmol/L),significant quantities of highly toxic iodinated and brominated DBPs were formed.However,the rapid oxidation and incorporation of bromide appear to inhibit iodoDBP formation under conditions relevant to drinking water treatment.

文摘The purpose of our study was to evaluate the effect of photodynamic therapy （PDT）, using erythrosine as a photosensitizing agent and a dental halogen curing unit as a light source, on Streptococcus mutans in a biofilm phase. The S. mutans biofilms were formed in a 24-well cell culture cluster. Test groups consisted of biofilms divided into four groups： group 1： no photosensitizer or light irradiation treatment （control group）; group 2： photosensitizer treatment alone; group 3： light irradiation alone; group 4： photosensitizer treatment and light irradiation. After treatments, the numbers of colony-forming unit （CFU） were counted and samples were examined by confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy （CLSM）. Only group 4 （combined treatment） resulted in significant increases in cell death, with rates of 75% and 55% after 8 h of incubation, and 74% and 42% at 12 h, for biofilms formed in brain-heart infusion （BHI） broth supplemented with 0% or O. 1% sucrose, respectively. Therefore, PDT of S. mutans biofilms using a combination of erythrosine and a dental halogen curing unit, both widely used in dental clinics, resulted in a significant increase in cell death. The PDT effects are decreased in biofilms that form in the presence of sucrose.

文摘Recent theoretical predictions and experimental findings on the transport properties of n-type SnTe have triggered extensive researches on this simple binary compound,despite the realization of n-type SnTe being a great challenge.Herein,Cl as a donor dopant can effectively regulate the position of Fermi level in Sn_(0.6)Pb_(0.4)Te matrix and successfully achieve the n-type transport behavior in SnTe.An outstanding power factor of~14.7μW·cm^(-1)·K^(-2) at 300 K was obtained for Cl-doped Sn_(0.6)Pb_(0.4)Te sample.By combining the experimental analysis with theoretical calculations,the transport properties of n-type SnTe thermoelectrics doped with different halogen dopants(Cl,Br,and I)were then systematically investigated and estimated.The results demonstrated that Br and I had better doping efficiencies compared with Cl,which contributed to the well-optimized carrier concentrations of~1.03×10^(19)and~1.11×10^(19)cm^(-3)at 300 K,respectively.The improved n-type carrier concentrations effectively lead to the significant enhancement on the thermoelectric performance of n-type SnTe.Our study further promoted the experimental progress and deep interpretation of the transport features in n-type SnTe thermoelectrics.The present results could also be crucial for the development of n-type counterparts for SnTe-based thermoelectric devices.

文摘This study shows that minor amount of water plays a very important role in solvent-free hydrogenation of halogenated nitrobenzenes. For dried sponge Pd, the reaction cannot occur in the absence of water. For Pd/C catalyst, minor amount of water reduces the induction time, increases the reaction rate and reaction TOFs. Water might enhance the diffusion, adsorption and dissociation of H2 on Pd catalysts.

文摘Halogenated methyl-phenyl ethers （anisoles） are ubiquitous organic compounds in the environment. In the present study, geometrical optimization and electrostatic potential calculations have been performed for 42 halogenated anisoles at the HF/6-31 G^＊ level. A number of statistically based parameters have been obtained. By multiple regression method, linear relationships between the gas-chromatographic relative retention time （RRT） and structural descriptors have been established for the training set of 32 halogenated anisoles. The result showed that the parameters derived from electrostatic potentials （ESPs） together with the molecular volume （Vmc） could be well used to express the quantitative structure-RRT relationships of halogenated anisoles. The best two-variable regression model gives a correlation coefficient of 0.980 and a standard deviation of 0.07, and the leave-one-out cross-validated correlation coefficient is 0.975. The goodness of the model has been further validated through exploring the predictive power for the testing set of 10 halogenated anisoles.
文摘Noninvasive gluoose monitoring development is critical for diabetic patient continuous moni-toring.However,almost all the available devices are invasive and painful.Noninvasive methods such as using spectroscopy have shown some good results.Unfortunately,the drawback was that the tungsten halogen lamps 1usage that is impractical if applied on human skin.This paper compared the light emitting diode(LED)to traditional tungsten halogen lamps as light source for glucose detection where the type of light source plays an important role in achieving a good spectrum quality.Glucose concentration measurement has been developed as part of noninvasive technique using optical spectroscopy.Small change and overlapping in tungsten halogen results need to replace it with a more convenient light source such as LED.Based on the result obtained,the performance of LED for absorbance spectrum gives a signifcantly different and is directly proportional to the glucose concentration.The result shows a linear trend and scucssully detects lowest at 60 to 160 mg/dL glucose concentration.
