Combining with electrolysis products distribution analysis and density functional theory calculations, oxidation mechanisms of all six model dimers have been explored. In particular, a total effect from substituents of both para-methoxy(on the aryl ring closing to Cα) and Cα-OH on the oxidation mechanisms has been clearly observed, showing a significant selectivity on the Cα-Cβbond cleavage induced by electrochemical oxidations.展开更多

For 80 sorts of 1,4- disubstituted benzenes, the correlation coefficient was 0.9805, and the standard deviation was only 672.27 cm^-1. The results imply that the excited-state substituent constant can be used productively for research on UV energy of 1,4-disubstituted benzenes. The present method provides a new avenue to study the UV absorption spectra of aromatic systems with the excited-state substituent constant, and it is helpful to understand the effect of substituent electrostatic effects on the chemical and physical properties of conjugated compounds with multiple substituents in excited state.展开更多

An extensional study of substituent effects on the 1H NMR chemical shifts (δH(CH=N)) and 13C NMR chemical shifts (δc(CH=N)) of the CH=N bridging group from di-substituted to multi-substituted XBAYs was made based on a total of 182 samples of XBAYs, together with the NMR data of other 129 samples of di-substituted XBAYs quoted from literatures. The results show thatthe substituent specific cross-interaction effect parameter (△(∑σ)2) plays an important role in quantifying the δc(CH=N) values of XBAYs, but it is negligible for quantifying the δH (CH=N) values; the other substituent parameters also present different influences on the δc (CH=N) and (δH (CH=N). On the whole, the contributions of X and Y to the δc (CH=N) of XBAYs are balanced, but the δH(CH=N) values of XBAYs mainly rely on the contributions of X.展开更多

The substituent effects on the E(Red) of target compounds were analyzed and an optimality equation with four parameters (Hammett constant a of X, Hammett constant a of Y, excited-state substituent constant σexCC of X, and the substituent specific cross-interaction effect △σexCC2 between X and Y) was obtained. The results show that the factors affecting the E(Red) of 3,4'/4,31/3,3P-substituted XBAYs are different from those of 4,4'-substituted XBAYs. For 3,4'/4,3'/3,3'-substituted XBAYs, σ(X) and σ(Y) must be employed, and the contribution of △σexCC2 is important and not negligible. Compared with 4,4'-substituted XBAYs, X group contributes less to 3,4'/4,3'/3,3'-substituted XBAYs, while Y group contributes more to them. Additionally, it was observed that either para-substituted XBAYs or meta-substituted XBAYs, the substituent effects of X are larger than those of Y on the E(Red) of substituted XBAYs.展开更多

Herein, we report a new kind of 2D porphyrinic metal-organic framework nanosheets of Rh2-PCN-222, which was prepared from the self-assembly of the metalloporphyrin ligand Rh(TCPP)(DCB)(TCPP = 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-methoxycarbonylphenyl)porphyrin;DCB = 3,4-dichlorobenzene) and ZrCl_(4) in the presence of two kinds of monocarboxylic acids as the modulating reagent. The thickness of Rh2-PCN-222 nanosheets was characterized by atomic force microscopy(AFM)and determined to be 5.4-9.6 nm. It was found that the axial aryl dichlorophenyl substituent, which controlled the anisotropic growth of MOFs, was essential for the formation of nanosheets. Catalytic results showed that Rh2-PCN-222 nanosheets were efficient for CO_(2) transformation.展开更多

In this...Understanding the degradation behavior of azo dyes in photocatalytic wastewater treatment is of fundamental and practical importance for their application in textile-processing and other coloration industries. In this study, quantum chemistry, as density functional theory, was used to elucidate different degradation pathways of azo pyridone dyes in a hydroxyl radical(HO ·)-initiated photocatalytic system. A series of substituted azo pyridone dyes were synthesized by changing the substituent group in the para position of the benzene moiety, ranging from strong electron-donating to strong electron-withdrawing groups. The effect of dye molecular structure on the photocatalytic degradation reaction mechanism was analyzed and quantification of substituent effects on the thermodynamic and kinetics parameters was performed. Potential energy surface analysis revealed the most susceptible reaction site for the HO ·attack. The calculated reaction barriers are found to be strongly affected by the nature of substituent group with a good correlation using Hammett σp constants and experimentally determined reaction rates. The stability of pre-reaction complexes and transition state complexes were analyzed applying the distortion-interaction model. The increased stability of the transition state complexes with the distancing from the substituent group has been established.展开更多

A comprehensive exploration of the aminolysis mechanism for methyl indole-3-acetate with ammonia is carried out by employing the B3 LYP/6-311++G(d,p), M06-2 X/6-311++G(d,p) and MP2/6-311++G(d,p)//M06-2 X/6-311++G(d,p)...A comprehensive exploration of the aminolysis mechanism for methyl indole-3-acetate with ammonia is carried out by employing the B3 LYP/6-311++G(d,p), M06-2 X/6-311++G(d,p) and MP2/6-311++G(d,p)//M06-2 X/6-311++G(d,p) levels. Two alterative reaction channels of the concerted and addition/elimination stepwise processes including the uncatalyzed, base-catalyzed reactions are taken into consideration. Subsequently, the substituent effects and solvent effects in methanol are also evaluated at the M06-2 X/6-311++G(d,p) level. The calculated results indicate that the calculated values of M06-2 X level are quite close to those of MP2, the stepwise pathway has more advantages to the concerted one for all of the reaction processes and the catalyst facilitates the proton migration and decreases the energy barriers as well. It is shown that the most preferred mechanism is the based-catalyzed stepwise process, the substituent of NH2 group slightly accelerates all the aminolysis reaction processes, and the solvent effect does not remarkably change the mechanism of the reaction.展开更多

The polycondensations via direct arylation took place between the four thiophene derivatives and 2,7-dibromo-9,9-dioctylfluorene under six various catalytic conditions to investigate the substituent effects. The substituent can affect the electron cloud density of the active C―H bond, which can be monitored by the NMR chemical shift. The experimental results show that the reactivity decreases with increasing the chemical shift of active C―H bonds in the four thiophene derivatives, and thus can promote the direct arylation polycondensation. This phenomenon is explained by the electrophilic aromatic substitution(SEAr) mechanism. UV-Visible absorption and photoluminescence were studied to investigate the substituent effect on optical properties of the four copolymers. The results show that these alternating fluorene-thiophene copolymers with different substituents are good fluorescent materials and promising in PLED applications.展开更多

Terminal substituents on oligo(aryltriazoleamide)s foldamers 2–4 display a considerable influence on the binding affinities of the foldamers for halide anions. Large steric hindrance of the terminal substituents was found to be unfavorable for binding halide anions, but aromatic π-π interactions between two terminal substituents are capable of stabilizing the conformation of foldamers thus giving rise to an enhancement in the binding strengths. However, the terminal substituents were found to hardly affect the binding selectivity in the studied cases.展开更多

文摘In order to better understand the specific substituent effects on the electrochemical oxidation process of β-O-4 bond, a series of methoxyphenyl type β-O-4 dimer model compounds with different localized methoxyl groups, including 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenylethanone, 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenylethanol, 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone, 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanol, 2-(2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone, 2-(2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanol have been selected and their electrochemical properties have been studied experimentally by cyclic voltammetry, and FT-IR spectroelectrochemistry. Combining with electrolysis products distribution analysis and density functional theory calculations, oxidation mechanisms of all six model dimers have been explored. In particular, a total effect from substituents of both para-methoxy(on the aryl ring closing to Cα) and Cα-OH on the oxidation mechanisms has been clearly observed, showing a significant selectivity on the Cα-Cβbond cleavage induced by electrochemical oxidations.

文摘A correlation equation between the UV absorption wavenumbers of 1,4-disubstituted benzenes and the excited-state substituent constant was obtained. For 80 sorts of 1,4- disubstituted benzenes, the correlation coefficient was 0.9805, and the standard deviation was only 672.27 cm^-1. The results imply that the excited-state substituent constant can be used productively for research on UV energy of 1,4-disubstituted benzenes. The present method provides a new avenue to study the UV absorption spectra of aromatic systems with the excited-state substituent constant, and it is helpful to understand the effect of substituent electrostatic effects on the chemical and physical properties of conjugated compounds with multiple substituents in excited state.

An extensional study of substituent effects on the 1H NMR chemical shifts (δH(CH=N)) and 13C NMR chemical shifts (δc(CH=N)) of the CH=N bridging group from di-substituted to multi-substituted XBAYs was made based on a total of 182 samples of XBAYs, together with the NMR data of other 129 samples of di-substituted XBAYs quoted from literatures. The results show thatthe substituent specific cross-interaction effect parameter (△(∑σ)2) plays an important role in quantifying the δc(CH=N) values of XBAYs, but it is negligible for quantifying the δH (CH=N) values; the other substituent parameters also present different influences on the δc (CH=N) and (δH (CH=N). On the whole, the contributions of X and Y to the δc (CH=N) of XBAYs are balanced, but the δH(CH=N) values of XBAYs mainly rely on the contributions of X.
文摘Effects of meta-substituent of 3,4'/4,3'/3,3'-substituted benzylideneanilines (XBAYs) on the electrochemical reduction potentials (E(Red)) were investigated, in which 49 samples of target compounds were synthesized, and their reduction potentials were measured by cyclic voltammetry. The substituent effects on the E(Red) of target compounds were analyzed and an optimality equation with four parameters (Hammett constant a of X, Hammett constant a of Y, excited-state substituent constant σexCC of X, and the substituent specific cross-interaction effect △σexCC2 between X and Y) was obtained. The results show that the factors affecting the E(Red) of 3,4'/4,31/3,3P-substituted XBAYs are different from those of 4,4'-substituted XBAYs. For 3,4'/4,3'/3,3'-substituted XBAYs, σ(X) and σ(Y) must be employed, and the contribution of △σexCC2 is important and not negligible. Compared with 4,4'-substituted XBAYs, X group contributes less to 3,4'/4,3'/3,3'-substituted XBAYs, while Y group contributes more to them. Additionally, it was observed that either para-substituted XBAYs or meta-substituted XBAYs, the substituent effects of X are larger than those of Y on the E(Red) of substituted XBAYs.

文摘Substituent effect of metal porphyrin molecular catalysts plays a crucial role in determining the catalytic activity of oxygen electrocatalysis.Herein,substituent position effect of Co porphyrins on oxygen electrocatalysis,including the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and the oxygen evolution reaction(OER),was investigated.Two Co porphyrins,namely 2,4,6-OMe-CoP and 3,4,5-OMe-CoP,were selected as the research objects.The ORR and OER performance was evaluated by drop-coating molecular catalysts on carbon nanotubes(CNTs).The resulted 3,4,5-OMe-CoP/CNT exhibited high bifunctional electrocatalytic activities and better long-term stability for both ORR and OER than 2,4,6-OMe-CoP/CNT.Furthermore,when applied in the Zn-air battery,3,4,5-OMe-CoP/CNT exhibited comparable performance to that with precious metal-based materials.The enhanced catalytic activity may be attributed to the improved charge transfer rate,mass transfer and hydrophilicity.This work provides an effective strategy to further enhance catalytic activity by introducing substituent position effect,which is of great importance for developing more efficient energy-related electrocatalysts.

文摘Ultrathin two-dimensional metal-organic framework nanosheets have emerged as a promising kind of heterogeneous catalysts. Herein, we report a new kind of 2D porphyrinic metal-organic framework nanosheets of Rh2-PCN-222, which was prepared from the self-assembly of the metalloporphyrin ligand Rh(TCPP)(DCB)(TCPP = 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-methoxycarbonylphenyl)porphyrin;DCB = 3,4-dichlorobenzene) and ZrCl_(4) in the presence of two kinds of monocarboxylic acids as the modulating reagent. The thickness of Rh2-PCN-222 nanosheets was characterized by atomic force microscopy(AFM)and determined to be 5.4-9.6 nm. It was found that the axial aryl dichlorophenyl substituent, which controlled the anisotropic growth of MOFs, was essential for the formation of nanosheets. Catalytic results showed that Rh2-PCN-222 nanosheets were efficient for CO_(2) transformation.

文摘For the rational design of metal catalyst in olefin polymerization catalysis,various strategies were applied to suppress the chain transfer by bulking up the axial positions of the metal center,among which the"sandwich"type turned out to be an eficient category in achieving high molecular weight polyolefin.In the a-dimine system,the"sandwich"type catalysts were built using the typical 8-aryl-naphthyI framework.In this contribution,by introducing the rotationally restrained benzosuberyl substituent into the ortho-position of N-aryl rings,a new class of "sandwich-like"a-diimine nickel catalysts was constructed and fully identified.The rotationally restrained benzosuberyl substituents played a"sandwich-like"function by capping the nickel center from two axial sites.Compared to the nickel catalyst Ni1 bearing freely rotated benzhydryl substituent,Ni2 featuring benzosubery|substituent enabled the increase(8 times)of polymer molecular weights from 8 kDa to 65 kDa in the polymerization of ethylene.By further increasing the steric bulk of another ortho-site of the N-aryl ring,the polymer molecular weight even reached an ultrahigh level of 833 kDa(Mw=1857 kDa)using the optimized Ni3.Notably,these nickel catalysts could also mediate the copolymerization of ethylene with methyl 10-undecenoate,with Ni3 giving the highest copolymer molecular weight(88 kDa)and the highest incorporation of comonmer(2.0 mol1%),along with high activity of up to 10^(5)g·mol^(-1)·h^(-1).

文摘Understanding the degradation behavior of azo dyes in photocatalytic wastewater treatment is of fundamental and practical importance for their application in textile-processing and other coloration industries. In this study, quantum chemistry, as density functional theory, was used to elucidate different degradation pathways of azo pyridone dyes in a hydroxyl radical(HO ·)-initiated photocatalytic system. A series of substituted azo pyridone dyes were synthesized by changing the substituent group in the para position of the benzene moiety, ranging from strong electron-donating to strong electron-withdrawing groups. The effect of dye molecular structure on the photocatalytic degradation reaction mechanism was analyzed and quantification of substituent effects on the thermodynamic and kinetics parameters was performed. Potential energy surface analysis revealed the most susceptible reaction site for the HO ·attack. The calculated reaction barriers are found to be strongly affected by the nature of substituent group with a good correlation using Hammett σp constants and experimentally determined reaction rates. The stability of pre-reaction complexes and transition state complexes were analyzed applying the distortion-interaction model. The increased stability of the transition state complexes with the distancing from the substituent group has been established.

文摘Heavy rare earth element(HREE)separation has always been a great challenge.The kind of dialkylphosphinic acids is recognized as the third generation of organophosphorous acid extractants.However,detailed relationship betweenβ-substituent(especially when it changes from H to methyl,and further to ethyl)and their extraction behaviors and selectivity for HREEs have rarely been reported.Besides,there are also few reports on effect ofγ,δ-substituent on HREE extraction and separation.In this paper,we synthesized five and collected two dialkylphosphinic acids with differentβ,γ,δ-substituents(from H to ethyl).These extractants were divided into two groups to discuss their extraction behaviors and selectivity for HREEs:β-substituent group(P208,INET-1,P218,USTB-1 and P227)andγ,δ-substituent group(P218,P2132 and Cyanex 272).To evaluate and compare their extractabilities,P507 was used as a reference and Tm,Yb,Lu were extracted with 0.01 mol/L of these extractants from single Tm,Yb and Lu solutions(~4×10^(-4)mol/L)at different initial pH.Besides,pH_(0.5)(Tm),pH_(0.5)^(Yb)and pH_(0.5)^(Lu)values and their differences(ΔpH_(0.5)^(Tm-Yb),ΔpH_(0.5)^(Yb-Lu),ΔpH_(0.5)^(Tm-Lu))for each extractant were given to roughly evaluate their separation performance for Tm,Yb and Lu.To further investigate the selectivity of these extractants for HREEs,Tb,Dy,Ho,Er,Tm,Yb and Lu were extracted from their mixed solution with initial pH of 4.00 at phase ratio A/O of 2:1,1:1 or 1:2.Their HREE separation performance is mainly discussed based on the adjacent HREE separation factors(β_(N+1/N))and their average value(β_(Tb-Lu)).

文摘Calix[4]arene derivatives have been reported to possess high selectivity for metal ions.In order to analyze the extraction effect of substituents on Hg^(2+)and Pb^(2+),calix[4]arene derivatives containing hydroxyl,bromoethoxy and 1,11-dioxa-4,8-dithiahendecene were successfully synthesized,with their extraction effectiveness towards Hg^(2+)and Pb^(2+)were evaluated respectively.The results indicated that the phenolic hydroxyl in calix[4]arene improved the extraction ability on Hg^(2+)by promoting the formation of the negative oxygen ions that could bind with Hg^(2+)by coordination and ionic bonds.The extraction ability of 5,17-dinitro-26,28-(1’,11’-dioxa-4’,8’-dithiahendecene)-calix[4]arene(calix[4]arene thia derivative)was improved slightly due to the better coordination capacity for metal ions after introduction of 1,11-dioxa-4,8-dithiahendecene,which was a chelate-binding centre.Regarding to Pb^(2+),only 1,11-dioxa-4,8-dithiahendecene on molecule contributed to extraction due to the coordination bond.Since the metal ion with higher charge-to-radius ratio could coordinate with one ligand more stably,Pb^(2+)with higher charge-to-radius ratio than Hg^(2+)was coordinated and extracted by the calix[4]arene thia derivative more easily.Furthermore,extraction rates of the calix[4]arene thia derivative on both ions(Hg^(2+)and Pb^(2+))increased with the increase of pH value in acidic aqueous system(pH<7).

文摘A comprehensive exploration of the aminolysis mechanism for methyl indole-3-acetate with ammonia is carried out by employing the B3 LYP/6-311++G(d,p), M06-2 X/6-311++G(d,p) and MP2/6-311++G(d,p)//M06-2 X/6-311++G(d,p) levels. Two alterative reaction channels of the concerted and addition/elimination stepwise processes including the uncatalyzed, base-catalyzed reactions are taken into consideration. Subsequently, the substituent effects and solvent effects in methanol are also evaluated at the M06-2 X/6-311++G(d,p) level. The calculated results indicate that the calculated values of M06-2 X level are quite close to those of MP2, the stepwise pathway has more advantages to the concerted one for all of the reaction processes and the catalyst facilitates the proton migration and decreases the energy barriers as well. It is shown that the most preferred mechanism is the based-catalyzed stepwise process, the substituent of NH2 group slightly accelerates all the aminolysis reaction processes, and the solvent effect does not remarkably change the mechanism of the reaction.

文摘The photophysics and photochemistry of pefloxacin(PEF),a 1-ethyl-substituted fluoroquinolone(FQ)antibiotic,were studied using transient,steady-state experimental methods and computational methods.The fundamental photoproperties of PEF and its phototoxicity toward lysozyme,a single-chain protein,were compared with those of a 1-fluorophenyl-substituted FQ antibiotic,difloxacin(DIF).The results showed that the phototoxicity was significantly decreased by the insertion of the bulky1-fluorophenyl substituent(the phototoxicity of DIF was approximately one-quarter of that observed for PEF).This trend was attributed to the lowest lying singlet state with sizeable oscillator strength(f C 0.1)being shifted from319 nm in PEF to 266 nm in DIF upon the insertion of the bulky substituent at the 1-position,as investigated by using computational methods.In addition,95%of the solar UV irradiation that reaches the earth’s surface has wavelength[315 nm.Therefore,reducing the most effective excitation wavelength by optimizing the substituent at the1-position may be a promising strategy to alleviate the phototoxicity of FQ antibiotics.These findings may be applied to other FQ antibiotics because a large number of phototoxicity studies on FQ antibiotics with different substituents at the 1-position can prove these finding’s effectiveness.Delafloxacin,an FQ antibiotic bearing a chlorine and bulky substituent at the 8-and 1-positions,respectively,exhibits no phototoxicity is the most recent example reported to date.To the best of our knowledge,this is the first transient and steady-state study of the effect of the N-1 substituent on the photochemistry and phototoxicity of FQ antibiotics.These findings will be beneficial to the development of novel FQ antibiotics without phototoxicity.

文摘Four thiophene derivatives were prepared by replacing the 3,4 positions of thiophene by―OCH3, ―CH3―COOCH3 and ―CN, respectively. The polycondensations via direct arylation took place between the four thiophene derivatives and 2,7-dibromo-9,9-dioctylfluorene under six various catalytic conditions to investigate the substituent effects. The substituent can affect the electron cloud density of the active C―H bond, which can be monitored by the NMR chemical shift. The experimental results show that the reactivity decreases with increasing the chemical shift of active C―H bonds in the four thiophene derivatives, and thus can promote the direct arylation polycondensation. This phenomenon is explained by the electrophilic aromatic substitution(SEAr) mechanism. UV-Visible absorption and photoluminescence were studied to investigate the substituent effect on optical properties of the four copolymers. The results show that these alternating fluorene-thiophene copolymers with different substituents are good fluorescent materials and promising in PLED applications.

文摘Foldamers 1–4 incorporating different terminal substituents have been designed and synthesized for binding halide anions.~1H NMR titration experiments carried out in DMSO-d_6/CDCl_3(15/85, v/v)demonstrated that the short oligo (aryltriazole)s backbone 1 could not bind halide anions unless that amide H-bond donors were incorporated at the termini of the oligomer. Terminal substituents on oligo(aryltriazoleamide)s foldamers 2–4 display a considerable influence on the binding affinities of the foldamers for halide anions. Large steric hindrance of the terminal substituents was found to be unfavorable for binding halide anions, but aromatic π-π interactions between two terminal substituents are capable of stabilizing the conformation of foldamers thus giving rise to an enhancement in the binding strengths. However, the terminal substituents were found to hardly affect the binding selectivity in the studied cases.

文摘New lanthanide(Eu3+ and Gd3+) complexes were successfully synthesized and the effect of the p-phe nyl substituent on the Eu3+luminescent properties was evaluated.In this sense,benzhydrazide,p-toluic hydrazide,4-hydroxybenzhydrazide and 4-aminobenzoic hydrazide were used as ligands and the complexes were obtained by mixing the lanthanide salts with hydrazides in ethanol at room temperature and keeping the reaction for 2 h under mechanical stirring.Crystal of Gd-amino was obtained and its structure was elucidated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction,revealing that Gd3+centered in a distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic molecular geometry.IR spectroscopy and the elucidated structure confirm hydrazides acting as bidentate ligands binding to Ln3+ions through the oxygen of carbonyl group and the nitrogen of terminal amine,forming a five-membered ring,CHN analyses confirm the molecular formulas [Gd(amino)4(H2 O)](NO3)3·(C2 H5 OH) and [Eu(toluic)3(H2 O)3](NO3)3.Lower T1 state energies are observed for ligands p-substituted with higher electron donating capacity groups,such as p-NH2 and pOH.In contrast,higher lifetimes and quantum efficiencies are obtained for Eu3+complexes with ligands p-H and p-CH3 substituted,which are not deactivator groups.
