Structure and Fluorescence Property of a 2D Bilayer Cd(Ⅱ) Coordination Polymer Induced by H-bonding and π-π Interaction

Solvothermal reactions of 4,4＇-oxybis（benzoic acid） （H2oba） with 1,3-dipyridyl benzene （1,3-dpb） produced a two-dimensional （2D） cadmium（Ⅱ） coordination polymer {[Cd（oba）（dpb）]·H2O}n （1）. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group C2/c with a = 13.6692（9）, b = 25.9647（17）, c = 8.7912（6） , α = 125.0370（10）, γ = 2544.7（3）°, V = 2544.7（3） 3, C30H22N2O6Cd, Mr = 618.91, Dc =1.609 g/cm3, F（000） = 1248, μ = 0.904 mm-1 and Z = 4. The neighboring Cd（Ⅱ） ions are linked by oba2-anions and 1,3-dpb to form an infinitely 2D wavelike sheet, and two such 2D sheets are interlocked with each other by H-bonding to form a 2D → 2D structure. The adjacent two groups of interlocked structures are further linked to form a bilayer 2D supramolecular network by π-π interactions. In addition, the fluorescence property of 1 was also studied.

CONCERTED H-BONDING TEMPLATE SYNTHESIS OF AN ORDERED LADDER POLYSILSESQUIOXANE

A novel soluble regular ladder poly（benzoyl-3-aminopropyl） silsesquioxane （LPBAS） was facilely prepared under effective assistance of concerted H-bonding self-assembly of amido groups of side chains and silanol groups, respectively, of a new template monomer [1,3-bis（benzoyl-3-aminopropyl）-1,1,3,3-tetraethoxydisiloxane] （M）. The ordered ladder structure of LPBAS is manifested in： （1） the presence of two Bragg peaks representing the ladder width （d） and ladder thickness （t） in X-ray diffraction （XRD） pattern; （2） narrow base-line width （w = 6） of resonance absorption for -CH2SiO3/2 moiety in 29Si-NMR and （3） high glass transition temperature Tg = 1 12℃ in differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） analysis.

An intravenous clarithromycin lipid emulsion with a high drug loading, H-bonding and a hydrogen-bonded ion pair complex exhibiting excellent antibacterial activity

The aim of this study was to develop an intravenous clarithromycin lipid emulsion(CLE)with good stability and excellent antibacterial activity. The CLE was prepared by the thinfilm dispersed homogenization method. The interaction between clarithromycin(CLA) and cholesteryl hemisuccinate(CHEMS) was confirmed by DSC, FT-IR and^1H NMR analysis. The interfacial drug loading, thermal sterilization, freeze–thaw stability, and in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activity were investigated systematically. DSC, FT-IR and^1H NMR spectra showed that CHEMS(CLA: CHEMS, M ratio 1:2) could interact with CLA through H-bonding and a hydrogen-bonded ion pair. The CHEMS was found necessary to maintain the stability of CLE.Ultracentrifugation showed that almost 88% CLA could be loaded into the interfacial layer.The optimized CLE formulation could withstand autoclaving at 121 °C for 10 min and remain stable after three freeze–thaw cycles. The in vitro susceptibility test revealed that the CLA–CHEMS ion-pair and CLE have similar activity to the parent drug against many different bacterial strains. The in vivo antibacterial activity showed that the ED50 of intravenous CLE was markedly lower than that of CLA solution administrated orally. CLE exhibited pronounced antibacterial activity and might be a candidate for a new nanocarrier for CLA with potential advantages over the current commercial formulation.

H-bonding template-directed synthesis of a complete m-PDA-bridged ladder polyhydrosiloxane (OLPHS)

A highly ordered m-phenylenediimino-bridged ladder polyhydrosiloxane （abbr. OLPHS） with Mn = 1.24 × 10^4 was synthesized stoichiometric hydrolysis and dehydrochlorination condensation reaction between Si-Cl and Si-OH bonds. The complete ladder structure of OLPHS has been confirmed by the following three data. Two characteristic Bragg＇s peaks representing the ladder width （w = 0.94 nm） and ladder thickness （t = 0.42 nm） were observed in XRD analysis, which are consistent with those calculated by molecular simulation. The very sharp absorption with a small half-peak width （w1/2 = 0.5 ppm） for [（-HN）HSiO2/2]n moiety of OLPHS in ^29Si NMR spectrum indicated presence of the complete ladder structure. As collateral evidence, a higher glass transition temperature （Tg = 105 ℃） is also recorded in the DSC measurement, implying the high stiffness of ladder chain of OLPHS.

H-BONDING SELF-ASSEMBLED TEMPLATE-CONTROLLED SYNTHESIS OF A NOVEL SOLUBLE AND REACTIVE AMIDE-BRIDGED LADDERLIKE POLYHYDROSILOXANE

A novel soluble and reactive amide-bridged ladderlike polyhydrosiloxane （ALPHS） was first synthesized by an amido H-bonding self-assembled template. ALPHS with molecular weight M^-a = 18300 has very highly ordered ladderlike structure, which was confirmed by a sharp resonance absorption peak of [-Si（H）O2/2 ] moiety with the half peak width △1/2 〈 0.5 in^29Si-NMR spectrum. Presence of the reactive Si-H groups gives ALPHS an opportunity to further derive a variety of functional polymers by versatile Si-H reactions such as hydrosilylation, condensation, and so on.

H-Bonding Self-assembled Template-directed Synthesis of a Reactive Amide-bridged Ladder Polyvinylsiloxane

A novel, reactive amide-bridged ladder polyvinylsiloxane （abbr. LP） with Mn= 2.4×10^4 was synthesized for the first time by means of aryl amide H-bonding self-assembled template. The regularity of LP was characterized by the XRD, ^29Si NMR and DSC methods. XRD analysis demonstrated the ladder width w = 9.09A and the ladder thickness t = 3.89A, respectively, which are approximately consistent with the molecular simulation-calculated ones： w＇= 10.60A and t＇= 3.06A. ^29Si NMR displayed a resonance peak with small half peak width, △1/2 - 4 ppm, for the moiety [=Si（Vi）O2/2-]n of LP. Besides, as a collateral evidence, DSC measurement revealed a high glass transition temperature Tg = 225℃, suggesting high stiffness of the ladder main chain of LP.

The title compound (C17H16O2, Mr = 252.30) crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 11.5763(14), b = 11.0321(11), c = 11.5094(13) ?, β = 114.581(3)o, V = 1336.7(3) ?3 , Z = 4, Dc = 1.254 g/cm3, μ(MoKa) = 0.081 cm-1 and F(000) = 536.00. The final R and wR are 0.0527 and 0.1285, respectively for 3058 observed reflections (I > 2σ(I)). In the title molecule, two phenyl rings are rotated oppositely with respect to the central part C(1)–C(2)=C(3)– C(4) (plane 3) and the dihedral angle between them is 14.8o. The phenone O(1) atom deviates from plane 3 by 0.291 ?. In the crystal the molecules form H-bond chains of R2 (6) and R2 (5) types 1 1 along [001]. The molecule chains interacted through three cooperative C–H…O H-bonds (R3 (11)) 1 in the ‘bay area’ (Fig. 3), extending along [010] and forming layer (100). Between the layers, there exist C–H/π interactions along [101]. Studies on the cooperative C–H…O H-bonds R3 (11) in the 1 similar crystals are also presented.

Theoretical Study on N-H…O Blue-shifted H-Bond for HNO…H2O2 Complex

A theoretical study on the blue-shifted H-bond N-H…O and red-shifted H-bond O-H…O in the complex HNO…H2O2 was conducted by employment of both standard and counterpoise-corrected methods to calculate the geometric structures and vibrational frequencies at the MP2/6-31G（d）, MP2/6-31 ＋ G（d,p）, MP2/6-311 ＋ ＋ G（d,p）, B3LYP/6-31G（d）, B3LYP/6-31 ＋G（d,p） and B3LYP/6-311 ＋ ＋G（d,p） levels. In the H-bond N-H…O, the calculated blue shift of N-H stretching frequency is in the vicinity of 120 cm^-1 and this is indeed the largest theoretical estimate of a blue shift in the X-H…Y H-bond ever reported in the literature. From the natural bond orbital analysis, the red-shifted H-bond O-H…O can be explained on the basis of the dominant role of the hyperconjugation. For the blue-shifted H-bond N-H…O, the hyperconjugation was inhibited due to the existence of significant electron density redistribution effect, and the large blue shift of the N-H stretching frequency was prominently due to the rehybridization of spn N-H hybrid orbital.

A robust self-healing polyurethane elastomer: From H-bonds and stacking interactions to well-defined microphase morphology

Self-healing materials have attracted considerable attention because of their improved safety, lifetime, energy efficiency and environmental impact. Supramolecular interactions have been extensively considered in the field of self-healing materials due to their excellent reversibility and sensitive responsiveness to environmental stimuli. However,development of a polymeric material with good mechanical performance as well as self-healing capacity is very challenging. In this study, we report a robust self-healing polyurethane(PU) elastomer polypropylene glycol-2-amino-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-6-methylpyrimidin-4-ol(PPG-mUPy) by integrating ureidopyrimidone(UPy) motifs with a PPG segment with a well-defined architecture and microphase morphology.To balance the self-healing capacity and mechanical performance, a thermal-triggered switch of H-bonding is introduced. The quadruple H-bonded UPy dimeric moieties in the backbone induce phase separation to form a hard domain as well as enable further aggregation into microcrystals by virtue of the stacking interactions, which are stable in ambient temperature. This feature endows the PU with high mechanical strength. Meanwhile, a high healing efficiency can be realized, when the reversibility of the H-bond was unlocked from the stacking at higher temperature. An optimized sample PPG1000-mUPy50%with a good balance of mechanical performance(20.62 MPa of tensile strength) and healing efficiency(93% in tensile strength) was achieved. This strategy will provide a new idea for developing robust self-healing polymers.

Highly Ordered Supramolecular Assembled Networks Tailored by Bioinspired H-Bonding Confinement for Recyclable Ion-Transport Materials

Controlling dynamic molecular self-assembly to finely tune macroscopic properties offers chemical solutions to rational material design.Here we report that combining disulfide-mediated ring-opening polymerization withβ-sheet-like H-bonding self-assembly can drive a direct small-molecular assembly into a layered ionic network with precise architectural tunability and controllable functions as ion-transport membranes.This strategy enables a one-step evaporationinduced self-assembly from discrete small molecules to layered ionic networks with high crystallinity.The interlayer distances can be readily engineered with nanometer accuracy by varying the length of the oligopeptide side chain.The synergy of the layered structure and hydrophilic terminal groups facilitates the formation and ordering of interlayer water channels,endowing the resulting membranes with high efficiency in transporting ions.Moreover,the inherent dynamic nature of poly(disulfide)s allows chemical recycling to monomers under mild conditions.We foresee that the robust strategy of combining dynamic disulfide chemistry and noncovalent assembly can afford many opportunities in designing smart materials with unique functions and applications.

Utilization of H-bond interaction of nucleobase Uralic with antitumor methotrexate to design drug carrier with ultrahigh loading efficiency and pH-responsive drug release

A novel Uralic(U)-rich linear-hyperbranched mono-methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-hyperbranched polyglycerol-graft-Uralic(mPEG-HPG-g-U)nanoparticle(NP)was prepared as drug carrier for antitumor methotrexate(MTX).Due to the H-bond interaction of U with MTX and hydrophobic interaction,this NP exhibited high drug loading efficiency of up to 40%,which was significantly higher than that of traditional NPs based on U-absent copolymers(<15%).In addition,MTX-loaded mPEG-HPG-g-U NPs also demonstrated an acidity-accelerated drug release behavior.

Phototriggered Formation of a Supramolecular Polymer Network Based on Orthogonal H-Bonding and Host-Guest Recognition

Supramolecular polymer networks(SPNs)have gained increasing research attention due to their reversible and tunable nature in the preparation of adaptive materials.The use of hierarchical self-assembly techniques is an emerging strategy for the fabrication of smart supramolecular polymer networks,but corresponding study is still rare.Herein,we have reported a novel supramolecular polymer network through complementary host-guest interactions and phototriggered quadruple H-bonding cross-linking.Specifically,we design and synthesize an H1G1-type monomer consisting of a benzo-21-crown-7(B21C7)host(H1),a dialkylammonium salt guest(G1)and a photolabile o-nitrobenzyl ether protected ureidopyrimidinone(Upy)moiety.B21C7 and ammonium moieties can first form a linear supramolecular polymer through complementary host-guest interactions.Under photoirradiation,the Upy groups on the SP side chains were released,and the obtained linear supramolecular polymer could be further transformed into SPN through a quadruple H-bonding cross-linking.Meanwhile,the in situ transformation in the solid state is also accompanied by pronounced enhancement in mechanical properties,which provides foundation for further application of materials in different scenarios.

H-bonding interactions enable a 3D pillared cobalt(Ⅱ) coordination polymer for touchless finger moisture detection

Coordination polymers(CPs) are emerging as the next generation of macromolecule materials in many industrial and technological applications,e.g.gas/humidity sensing.The design of CP-based sensors with high performance and low cost is of significance,but this work is still in the infancy stage.In this contribution,a new one dimensional(1D) CP has been successfully synthesized by a simple solvent evaporation method at room temperature,namely [Co(DPP)(H_(2)O)_(2)]n·(TCA)2(H_(2)O)_(4)(named as Co-1,HTCA=3-thiophenezoic acid,DPP=1,3-di(4-pyridyl)propane).The Co-1 structure contains abundant H-bonding interactions,weaving it from 1D chain structure into three dimensional(3D) pillared-layer structure.As an impedimetric humidity sensing material,this CP exhibits short response time,small hysteresis,excellent repeatability,and good stability in the working range of 11%-97% relative humidity(RH).Furthermore,it also shows excellent performance in monitoring the moisture content of human finger skin.By analyzing the complex impedance spectra,the humidity sensing mechanism of Co-1 sensor was expounded at different RH ranges.

POCl_3-mediated H-bonding-directed one-pot synthesis of macrocyclic pentamers,strained hexamers and highly strained heptamers

Previously we have shown that POCl3-mediated H-bonding-directed one-pot macrocyclization allows for the highly selective preparation of five-residue macrocycles as the predominant product with low yields of hexamers and an undetectable occurrence of both tetramers and heptamers.Replacing the interiorly arrayed methyl groups with ethyl groups in these 4-7 residue macrocycles alters the relative stability order among them.Specifically,ethoxy-substituted six-residue macrocycle,rather than pentamer,turns out to be computationally the most stable,suggesting that ethoxy-containing hexamer possibly can be formed as the major product under suitable conditions.We have investigated this possibility by varying reaction temperatures and concentrations,invariably affording pentamer as the major macrocycle with strained circular hexamers and highly strained circular heptamers produced in substantial amounts.This discrepancy can be reasonably explained on the basis of bimolecular reactions between two oligomers higher than monomers via kinetic simulations.In this scenario,the acyclic pentamer is kinetically "trapped" to undergo an intramolecular cyclization to yield circular pentamer,rather than to produce acyclic hexamer.As a result,acyclic hexamer precursor is generated largely from sterically demanding bimolecular reactions between a dimer and a tetramer,or between two trimers that are kinetically slower than the pentamer-producing chain-growth reactions.We additionally found that one-pot macrocyclization proceeds to the largest extent at 40 ℃,an intriguing finding that highlights the low reactivities of acid chloride and amine groups in these H-bond-enforced acyclic oligomeric intermediates.

淬火温度对聚硫脲介电储能特性影响的分子动力学模拟

为了提高聚硫脲(polythiourea,PTU)的储能密度,对PTU进行了淬火处理,并采用分子动力学模拟研究了PTU中氢键动力学性质对介电储能特性的影响机理。首先,借助热波动指数(thermalfluctuationindex,TFI)和约化梯度密度(reduction gradient density,RDG)描述了氢键作用模式和强度随淬火温度升高的演变规律。其次,计算了氢键供体分别与受体和氢原子的径向分布函数、自相关函数等,提取了氢键密度和平均寿命。最后,建立了氢键特征参数与介电常数的关联,揭示了淬火提高PTU储能密度的机理。研究发现,淬火温度升高,氢键作用模式发生了由双氢键至单氢键,并最终超过氢键阈值而断裂的演变规律,这造成氢键密度减少,表现为强极性双氢键硫脲阵列数目的减少,导致介电常数减小;同时,氢键强度持续减弱,氢键寿命缩短,动态变化加快,导致硫脲阵列转向势垒降低,这有利于增大介电常数。受氢键作用模式和强度的共同影响,PTU的介电常数随淬火温度升高呈现先增大后减小的变化趋势。当淬火温度为393 K时,PTU的介电常数增大至10,储能密度高达16.3 J/cm~3。

氢键调控提升聚硫脲介电储能特性

为理解氢键对聚硫脲(polythiourea,PTU)介电储能特性的影响,该文采用实验和分子模拟方法,研究脂环族PTU(AcPTU)和芳香族PTU(ArPTU)中氢键作用模式和强度对介电常数、击穿场强和储能特性的影响。利用红外光谱和核磁共振氢谱表征化学组成和分子构型,利用宽频介电谱、击穿和电滞回线测试获得介电储能特性,基于H-N公式提取偶极极化特征参数,利用热刺激去极化电流法提取了陷阱深度,采用Multiwfn软件识别氢键作用模式和强度。结果显示,氢键作用模式和强度可以通过改变偶极极化和陷阱特性影响介电性能。脂环结构可以增多由反式/反式构型硫脲组装成的双氢键阵列,增强其介电松弛强度,进而提高介电常数;苯环结构可以增强π氢键数目和作用强度,加深由苯环碳原子和硫原子等氢键受体贡献的深陷阱能级,进而提高击穿场强。AcPTU具有高介电常数,归因于脂环结构增强了双氢键阵列的介电松弛强度;ArPTU的击穿场强高达855 MV/m,是因为苯环结构强化了氢键的电荷捕获效应。此外,当电场强度为300 MV/m时,AcPTU的储能密度和效率分别达到2.62 J/cm3和93.31%。该研究为提升本征型聚合物介电储能特性提供了理论依据。

氯自由基介导的光催化芳基醚C(sp^(3))−H氧化生成酯

饱和的碳氢键氧化是合成化学和化学工业中一类重要的化学反应.然而,饱和C(sp^(3))−H键离解能(BDEs)较高、极性较弱,导致了底物难以活化和催化转化效率较低等问题.在过去的几十年,C(sp^(3))−H键的定向活化转化取得了重要的进展.其中,关于C(sp^(3))−H键催化氧化的研究主要涉及一些键能低的、预活化的C−H键,包括苄基型、亚甲基型、脂肪族X−CH_(2)(X=O,N)和甲苯等,含有未活化C(sp^(3))−H键的复杂化合物的选择性氧化仍具有挑战性.例如,芳基醚C(sp^(3))−H键功能化通常采用计量的过氧化物氧化剂,或者通过单电子氧化和碱促进的去质子化进一步构建C−C/C−N键,产物选择性较低,也带来了一些不利的环境影响.因此,有必要开发高效、温和的芳基醚C(sp^(3))−H键选择氧化方法,并将其应用于有机合成和药物开发.近年来,光催化C(sp^(3))−H键氧化因其操作简便、氧化还原中性等优点,已发展成为一种有用且多样的催化研究工具.本文发展了一种利用氧气作为氧化剂,在可见光驱动下选择性地将芳基醚C(sp^(3))−H键氧化成为甲酸苯酯类产物的新方法.使用Mes-10-phenyl-Acr^(+)−BF_(4)^(-)光催化剂,高效活化多种氯源(如盐酸、无机氯盐和有机氯化物)得到氯自由基,由于其具有较高的氧化能力(+2.03 V vs.SCE)和对氢原子的亲和力,能够通过氢原子转移过程活化芳基醚C(sp^(3))−键,攫取氢自由基得到相应的烷基碳自由基(•CH_(2)OPh)中间体,进一步被分子氧选择氧化得到酯类目标产物.研究结果表明,多种链状芳基醚和不同取代(如给电子基和吸电子基)芳基醚均可发生氧化反应,高收率地合成了一系列官能团丰富的甲酸苯酯类化合物.本文方法具有反应条件温和、操作简单、官能团耐受性好以及可规模化放大等优点,并且少量的水对反应没有明显影响.机理实验研究结果表明,芳基醚C(sp^(3))−H键的断裂是反应过程的决速步骤.紫外可见吸收光谱结果表明,氯离子与催化剂之间的相互作用强于底物,并且自由基捕获实验证实反应体系中存在氯自由基和烷基碳自由基物种,表明反应经历自由基路径.此外,电子顺磁共振测试结果表明,反应过程中存在单线态氧物种,可能是激发态的光催化剂直接与氧气发生能量转移得到;同位素实验(18O)揭示了甲酸苯酯类化合物氧的来源.综上,本文实现了温和条件下光催化芳基醚C(sp^(3))−H键选择氧化反应,高收率合成了一系列甲酸苯酯类化合物.该方法避免了化学计量的过氧化物和碱等添加剂的使用以及底物的过度氧化,阐明了催化反应机制,为其他醚类化合物的C(sp^(3))−H键氧化功能化提供了新思路,为后续化学合成和药物开发提供了参考和启示.
