It was revealed that the ternary complexes containing phenylalkane carboxylates ligands(PCA-) are much more stable than those formed with formate and acetate. The results indicate that there exist the intramolecular aromatic-ring interactions between the phenanthroline ring of Phen and the phenyl moiety of ligand PCA- in the ternary mixed-ligand Pt(Phen)(PCA)- complexes. The extent of the stacking interactions, which depends on the number of methylene groups between the phenyl moieties and the coordinated phenylalkane carboxylate groups, was calculated. The best-fitted stack was obtained for the complexes with 2-phenylacetate and 3-phenylpropionate as the ligands.展开更多

The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group PI with two molecules in a unit cell of dimensions a = 1.0579(2) nm, b = 1.2423(3) nm, c = 1.9190(4) nm, α = 71.84(1)°, β = 80.50(2)°, γ = 88.60(1)°, V = 2.3625(9) nm3, R = 0.0407 and Rw = 0.0656. The complex results from bridging of two Cu(phen)2+ units by three carboxylate groups, and each Cu2+ ion is in a distorted square pyramidal geometry with two nitrogen atoms of phen and three carboxylate oxygen atoms of POAc. It has been showed that intramolecular stacking interactions occur between the phenyl moieties of POAc and aromatic rings of phen, leading to a novel molecule structure with two coordinating modes of carboxylate ligands, of which two phenylacetates are μ2-carboxylate-O-bridging ligands, and the other is a μ2-carboxylate-O, O'-bridging ligand.展开更多

The combined use of these techniques for the analysis of long-distance europium non-covalent interactions was performed for the first time. As a result, the correlation between supramolecular organization and the features of the Eum electronic transitions was found for the compounds of the first series. Strong non-covalent interactions between pyridoxal tings of SBs （the second series of compotmd） led to the formation of 1：2 species and four-dentate coordination function of these SBs in aqueous solution.展开更多

Deep insights into the mechanism of stereocomplexation are of particular importance to the design and manufacture of new promising and sustainable polycarbonates with enhanced physicochemical properties. Our solid-state NMR experiments linking with DFT computations clearly reveal the specific chain-chain interactions in a typical stereocomplexed poly（4,4-dimethyl-3,5,8-trioxabicyclo[5.1.0] octane carbonate）（PCXC）.13C CP/MAS NMR,1H DUMBO MAS NMR and 13C/1H relaxation-time measurements indicate that the formation of stereocomplex reduces the local mobilities of carbonyl, methine and methylene groups in each chain of PCXC significantly. Through a combination of two-dimensional 1H-13C HETCOR NMR and DFT calculation analysis, the cis-/trans-conformations and packing models of PCXC chains in the amorphous, enantionpure isotactic and stereocomplexed polycarbonates are identified. The splitting of 13C and 1H NMR chemical shifts of methine groups in the backbone carbon region demonstrates the ordered interlock interactions between the R-and S-chain in the stereocomplexed PCXC.展开更多

文摘Photocatalysis is one of the most capable green energy techniques for sustainable solar-to-chemical energy conversion.However,the speedy recombination of photocarriers remains a critical bottleneck in achieving high photocatalytic efficiency.Recent advancements have underscored the pivotal role of internal and external electrostatic fields in regulating charge dynamics within semiconductor systems.This review highlights the emerging strategy of employing non-covalent electrostatic interactions to modulate photocatalytic behavior.Internally,spontaneous polarization within polar or ferroelectric semiconductors facilitates efficient charge separation through built-in electric fields.Externally applied mechanical stress and magnetic fields further augment these effects via piezoelectric and magnetoelectric phenomena,offering dynamic control over carrier transport.Beyond macroscopic fields,subtle non-covalent electrostatic forces,such as hydrogen bonds,van der Waals forces,andπ-πstacking,significantly influence surface adsorption,electronic structure modulation,and interfacial charge transfer processes.Combining these external influences with semiconductor properties,we can develop innovative strategies to stabilize the reactive intermediates and reduce the recombination pathways,improving the practical implications of these synergistic effects in energy conversion and environmental remediation.This review systematically elucidates the mechanistic contributions of internal polarization and external fields to the modulation of non-covalent electrostatic forces in photocatalytic systems.Emphasis is placed on material design strategies that integrate structural polarity,field-responsive behavior,and interfacial engineering to achieve superior photocatalytic performance.Finally,the prospects of non-covalent electrostatic interactions in photocatalysis are discussed,providing insights to guide the rational development of more efficient and sustainable photocatalytic systems.

文摘Two series of lanthanide compounds, namely, chlorides containing different numbers of both 1,10-phenanthroline （Phen） molecules and chloride anions in the first coordination sphere, and Schiff Bases （SBs） derived from Pyridoxal （PL） and amino acids, were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and luminescence techniques. The combined use of these techniques for the analysis of long-distance europium non-covalent interactions was performed for the first time. As a result, the correlation between supramolecular organization and the features of the Eum electronic transitions was found for the compounds of the first series. Strong non-covalent interactions between pyridoxal tings of SBs （the second series of compotmd） led to the formation of 1：2 species and four-dentate coordination function of these SBs in aqueous solution.

文摘CO2-based stereocomplexed polycarbonates derived from the intermolecularly interlocked interaction between the enantiopure polymers with the opposite configuration exhibit high crystallinity, excellent thermal and mechanical stabilities. Deep insights into the mechanism of stereocomplexation are of particular importance to the design and manufacture of new promising and sustainable polycarbonates with enhanced physicochemical properties. Our solid-state NMR experiments linking with DFT computations clearly reveal the specific chain-chain interactions in a typical stereocomplexed poly（4,4-dimethyl-3,5,8-trioxabicyclo[5.1.0] octane carbonate）（PCXC）.13C CP/MAS NMR,1H DUMBO MAS NMR and 13C/1H relaxation-time measurements indicate that the formation of stereocomplex reduces the local mobilities of carbonyl, methine and methylene groups in each chain of PCXC significantly. Through a combination of two-dimensional 1H-13C HETCOR NMR and DFT calculation analysis, the cis-/trans-conformations and packing models of PCXC chains in the amorphous, enantionpure isotactic and stereocomplexed polycarbonates are identified. The splitting of 13C and 1H NMR chemical shifts of methine groups in the backbone carbon region demonstrates the ordered interlock interactions between the R-and S-chain in the stereocomplexed PCXC.

文摘An unusual F_(3)basal stacking fault resulting from twin-dislocation interaction in magnesium is observed in molecular dynamics simulation.The F_(3)fault is produced in the twin lattice from the interaction between a migrating(1012)twin boundary and a partial dislocation of either a prismatic<c>edge,or a prismatic<c+a>mixed dislocation in the matrix.The condition is that the partial dislocation needs to have a negative sign and lie on a plane intersecting a compression site of the twin boundary.The F_(3)fault can also be generated when a positive basal<a>mixed dislocation in the twin lattice,with slip plane intersecting a compression site of the twin boundary,interacts with a basal-prismatic twinning disconnection.The F_(3)fault comprises two I_(1) faults that have the same character but are separated by two basal layers.It has one end connected to the twin boundary,and the other end bounded by a lattice defect with a Burgers vector identical to that of a 30°Shockley partial dislocation.The formation frequency of the F_(3)fault is higher at a lower shear stress(below∼400 MPa)and/or a lower temperature(100 K and 200 K).The F_(3)fault can decompose into a glissile 30°Shockley and a T_(2) fault at a temperature above∼400 K.The relationships between the F_(3)fault and other types of basal stacking faults such as I_(2),T_(2) or paired I_(1) faults that are separated by multiple basal layers are discussed.
