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

Further-morel experimental equation K = 2.71× 10^(-2)(DS)^(-1.2) reflecting the relationship betweenK and the degree of substitution (DS) is correlated and used to describe chemical mi-crostructure uniformity of the distribution of substituents along chains effectively. Chainstructure parameters of enzymatic degradation products of CMC-the number of chainbreaks and the percentage of glucose released have been also measured. Average length ofsubstituted and unsubstituted chain segments are calculated simultaneously. Through thestudy of static and dynamic procedures of enzymatic degradation, the method to charac-terize the distribution of substituents of CMC along the chain has been improved.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

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

The effect of substituents with fluoroalkoxy or ether functional groups on the electrochemical polymerization of thiophene monomers and properties of the obtained polymers were analyzed. The introduction of a fluoroether functional group at the 3-position of the thiophene ring leads to an increase of the oxidation potential of the monomer and to a decrease of the conductivity of the resulting polymers, even with the use of a CH2 group as spacer. Conversely, the presence of an oxygen atom directly at the 3-position of the thiophene ring, which offsets the negative withdrawing effect of fluoroalkyl groups, facilitates the synthesis of highly conducting polythiophenes.展开更多

Importantly, due to the strong nucleophilicity of Ar Li, a series of bulky hydrophilic aromatic groups can be facilely integrated into the meso–position of heptamethine indocyanines, not only effectively inhibiting the undesired dye self-aggregation but also largely improving the water-solubility. Using one of anti-aggregation meso–aryl heptamethine indocyanines, we fabricated a dye-antibody conjugate for in vivo imaging tumor in a mouse model and achieved a high tumor-tonormal tissue ratio. The work laid a chemical foundation for constructing various meso–aryl heptamethine indocyanines, facilitating the advanced imaging and therapeutic applications in future.展开更多

Strategic incorporation of nitrogen-rich substituents(e.g., hydrazine, guanidine) into the 1,2,3-triazine 2-oxide framework yielded compounds with diverse performance characteristics. Notably, compound 2 demonstrates energy performance(D = 8916 m·s^(-1) and P = 36.80 GPa) comparable to RDX, yet with lower mechanical sensitivity(IS = 37 J). Theoretical calculations show that the properties of the substituents themselves and their coupling with the molecular skeleton jointly determine the key properties of the target molecules. This study provides a framework for the customized design of energetic materials by linking the chemical properties of substituents with the performance parameters of target molecules. These findings highlight the potential of local molecular structural modification driven by structure-activity relationship analysis in promoting the development of next-generation energetic materials and lay a solid foundation for future research in this field.展开更多

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The synthesis and phosphorescence properties of two novel Ir(Ⅲ)complexes bearing tert-butyl substituents,bis(4-tert-butyl-2- phenylbenzothiozolato-N,C^(2′))iridium(Ⅲ)(acetylacetonate)[(tbt)_2Ir(acac)]and bis(4-tert-butyl-1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazolato- N,C^(2′))iridium(Ⅲ)(acetylacetonate)[(tpbi)_2Ir(acac)],are reported,their molecular structures are confirmed by^1H NMR,ESI-MS and elementary analysis.Photoluminescence(PL)studies revealed that they can emit strong green and orange phosphorescence in high quantum yields.Compared to their prototypes lacking of tert-butyl substituents,the two novel iridium(Ⅲ)complexes both have shorter lifetimes and improved or nearly similar PL quantum efficiencies,implying that the exciton quenching is inhibited effectively when molecular steric hindrance increases.The two chelates have great potential to be used as electrophosphorescent materials.

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Molecular metallocycle electrocatalysts like metalloporphyrins and metallophthalocyanines were found to be effective for oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)due to their M-N_(4) active sites and large conjugated elec-tronic molecular structures.Herein,the“substituents optimization”strategy combined with“push effect”modification was innovatively employed to target a single Co-N_(4) active site in three substituted phthalo-cyaninato cobalt complexes:tetranitrophthalocyaninato cobalt(CoTNPc),tetra(4-nitrophenoxy)phthalo-cyaninato cobalt(CoTPNPc),and tetraphenoxy phthalocyaninato cobalt(CoTPPc)electrocatalyst,also with 4-phenylpyridine axial coordination on Co-N_(4) unit.Through substituents screening,the half-wave poten-tial(E_(1/2))for ORR increases in the order of CoTPNPc(0.75 V)<CoTPPc(0.80 V)<CoTNPc(0.83 V)along with decreased electron-withdrawing ability of their substituents from-OC_(6) H_(4)-NO_(2),-OC_(6) H_(5) to-NO_(2) in the three cobalt phthalocyanine derivatives.CoTNPc with the weakest electron-withdrawing substituent exhibits the best ORR performance among the three compounds.This is attributed to its higher elec-tron delocalization and lifted HOMO energy level with the lower energy barrier in the rate-determining step relative to the other two compounds,which facilitate the electron transfer and reduction of oxy-gen as evidenced by XPS,UPS,and DRS analysis combined with DFT calculations.Further coordination of 4-phenylpyridine shifts the E_(1/2) up to 0.78,0.82,and 0.85 V for CoTPNPc,CoTPPc,and CoTNPc.DFT calcu-lations demonstrate that the introduction of the electron-donating phenylpyridine ligand into the cobalt phthalocyanines breaks the symmetry of the Co-N_(4) center and also raises the electron density of Co sites,which promotes O_(2) adsorption and improves ORR performance.After comparing the two strategies,the substituents on metallophthalocyanine are more determined by the electroactivity than the axial group,which directly regulates the coordination environment and then the activation barrier of the ORR pro-cess.This work provides theoretical and experimental guidance by two coupling strategies for the design of highly active molecular CoPc-based ORR electrocatalysts in the practical application.

文摘Three series of polythiophenes containing fluoroalkoxy and fluoroether substituents were prepared by electrochemical polymerization. The effect of substituents with fluoroalkoxy or ether functional groups on the electrochemical polymerization of thiophene monomers and properties of the obtained polymers were analyzed. The introduction of a fluoroether functional group at the 3-position of the thiophene ring leads to an increase of the oxidation potential of the monomer and to a decrease of the conductivity of the resulting polymers, even with the use of a CH2 group as spacer. Conversely, the presence of an oxygen atom directly at the 3-position of the thiophene ring, which offsets the negative withdrawing effect of fluoroalkyl groups, facilitates the synthesis of highly conducting polythiophenes.

文摘The medium-bandgap polymerized small molecule acceptors(PSMAs)have broad application scenarios.However,the effort in the molecular design of the high-performance medium-bandgap PSMAs is limited.In this article,we introduce alkoxy groups as outer side chains and as substituents of the thiopheneπ-bridges of the high-performance PSMA PY-IT to synthesize a mediumbandgap PSMA PO-TO.Due to the fact that the non-covalent interaction between the alkoxy groups and the terminal groups of the small molecule acceptor(SMA)unit can weaken the intramolecular charge transfer(ICT)effect,the bandgap of PO-TO is enlarged and its absorption is blue-shifted compared with PY-IT,while the absorbance of PO-TO solution and film is enhanced significantly compared with that of PY-IT.When blended PO-TO with the polymer donor PBQx-TF,the corresponding all-polymer solar cells(all-PSCs)exhibit an open-circuit voltage(V_(oc))exceeding 1.04 V with a power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 13.75%.Furthermore,PO-TO was used as the third component to fabricate ternary all-PSCs with PBQx-TF as the polymer donor and PY-IT as the main polymer acceptor,and the ternary all-PSCs based on PBQx-TF:PY-IT:PO-TO(1:1:0.2,w/w/w)demonstrated a high PCE of 17.71%with simultaneously improved V_(oc)of 0.940 V,short-circuit current density(J_(sc))of 24.60 m A cm^(-2)and fill factor(FF)of76.81%.In comparison,the binary all-PSCs based on PBQx-TF:PY-IT showed a PCE of 16.77%.This result indicates that introducing alkoxy groups is a promising strategy for synthesizing high-performance medium-bandgap PSMAs.

文摘Side chain engineering with fluorine substitution is widely used to enhance photovoltaic performance of polymer donors in the research field of polymer solar cells(PSCs).However,fluorine substitution has disadvantages of complicated synthesis and high cost.Herein,we synthesized a novel D-A copolymer donor PBQ9 based on difluoroquinoxaline A-unit with chlorine substitution on its alkyl-thiophene side chains instead of fluorine substitution in the polymer donor PBQ6,which greatly shortens the synthetic route and reduces the cost.Interestingly,the optimized binary PSC with PBQ9 as polymer donor and m-TEH as acceptor demonstrated a high power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 18.81%(certified PCE of 18.33%by National Institute of Metrology,China)with a high fill factor of 80.59%,and the photovoltaic performance of the PSCs is insensitive to the different batches of the polymer donor.The results indicate that PBQ9 is a high-performance polymer donor and that chlorine substitution is an effective strategy to improve photovoltaic performance and reduce the cost of polymer donors.

文摘The expansion of new structures in aggregation-induced emission/aggregation-induced emission enhancement(AIE/AIEE)systems has attracted persistent attention recently,from which more luminescent functional molecules with characteristic skeletons are derived to satisfy specialized applications.In this study,a series of derivatives cored by tetraphenyl enamine with various terminal groups were designed and synthesized based on a novel p-πconjugate chain structure(–C=C–N–).Experimental and theoretical studies reveal that attaching modified groups to enamine core is decisive to achieve successful conversion from non-luminance to AIEE-activity.Moreover,due to different substituent effect on electronic structure,molecular conformation and molecular packing,diverse enamine compounds exhibited prominent substituent tunable emission properties,realizing regulated AIEE effect and multicolor emitting.These results not only offer a new method to design AIEgens/AIEEgens with p-πconjugate chain structures,but also provide in-depth knowledge for functional modifications of more novel AIE/AIEE units and materials.

文摘In this work, we put forward a new and universal approach, i.e., cyanine ketone method, for fabricating meso–aryl heptamethine indocyanines, which is so simple that the treatment of the easy-to-get cyanine ketones with various aromatic lithium(Ar Li), followed by acidification, could straightforwardly give rise to the products in one-pot way. Importantly, due to the strong nucleophilicity of Ar Li, a series of bulky hydrophilic aromatic groups can be facilely integrated into the meso–position of heptamethine indocyanines, not only effectively inhibiting the undesired dye self-aggregation but also largely improving the water-solubility. Using one of anti-aggregation meso–aryl heptamethine indocyanines, we fabricated a dye-antibody conjugate for in vivo imaging tumor in a mouse model and achieved a high tumor-tonormal tissue ratio. The work laid a chemical foundation for constructing various meso–aryl heptamethine indocyanines, facilitating the advanced imaging and therapeutic applications in future.

文摘The photocatalytic oxidative coupling of amines has emerged as a promising alternative for imine production.Nevertheless,enhancing the photocatalytic activity of conjugated organic polymers(COP)still faces significant challenges,particularly in near-infrared(NIR)driven photocatalytic activity,charge separation efficiency,adsorption,and activation of amine molecules.Here,we tackled these challenges by modulating the internal electronic states of cobalt phthalocyanine polymers(C-CoPPc-x)through edgesubstituted modification with various electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups.The built-in electric field(B-IEF)and Lewis acidity of metal sites are significantly influenced by such an edgesubstituted modification,which further results in an adjustable separation efficiency of photogenerated charges and the adsorption/activation behavior of benzylamine.By optimizing the surface catalytic reactions of COP,the methoxy-edge-modified polymer demonstrated a superior performance with an amine yield of 4.32 mmol g^(-1)under NIR irradiation,surpassing the performance of many reported photocatalysts even under ultraviolet(UV)or visible light.This work underscores the substantial impact of minor substituent modifications on both the separation of photogenerated charge carriers and the adsorption/activation of amine molecules in the photocatalytic process,and provides valuable insights for enhancing the photocatalytic performance of COP in diverse applications.

文摘This study preliminarily investigates the structure-activity relationships of novel [5,6]-fused ring energetic materials derived from the 6-nitro-7-azido-pyrazol [3,4-d][1,2,3]triazine 2-oxide(ICM-103) skeleton, emphasizing the role of functional group substitution in tailoring key properties such as detonation performance and mechanical sensitivity. Strategic incorporation of nitrogen-rich substituents(e.g., hydrazine, guanidine) into the 1,2,3-triazine 2-oxide framework yielded compounds with diverse performance characteristics. Notably, compound 2 demonstrates energy performance(D = 8916 m·s^(-1) and P = 36.80 GPa) comparable to RDX, yet with lower mechanical sensitivity(IS = 37 J). Theoretical calculations show that the properties of the substituents themselves and their coupling with the molecular skeleton jointly determine the key properties of the target molecules. This study provides a framework for the customized design of energetic materials by linking the chemical properties of substituents with the performance parameters of target molecules. These findings highlight the potential of local molecular structural modification driven by structure-activity relationship analysis in promoting the development of next-generation energetic materials and lay a solid foundation for future research in this field.

文摘Alkoxy radicals bearing cyclic substituents are oxidation intermediates of important hydrocarbon compounds in atmospheric chemistry and pharmacology.Spectroscopic study can provide diagnostic methods for monitoring these radicals in reactions and investigating their structure-reactivity effect.In this work,vibrationally resolved laser-induced fluorescence(LIF)spectrum of the 3-cyclohexyl-1-propoxy radical was obtained in supersonic jet condition.Low energy conformers G′_(1)T_(2)G_(3)and T_(1)T_(2)G_(3)were identified as the spectral carriers.A red shift of the spectrum compared to that of the straight chain alkoxy radical with same number of carbon atoms suggested that the cyclohexyl ring was a slightly better electron donor than the linear alkyl group.Studies also showed that theαandβC cyclohexyl substitutions significantly weakened theβC-C bonds of the radicals,and conversely,the strength of the C-C bonds on cyclohexyl ring decreased as its distance from the O radical decreased.When cyclohexyl substitution occurred atγC,the stability of the 3-cyclohexyl-1-propoxy radical became comparable to that of straight chain alkoxy radicals.
