Synthesis of energetic coordination polymers based on 4-nitropyrazole by solid-melt crystallization in non-ionization condition

Based on the theory of crystallization,a solvent-free solid-liquid phase crystallization method called solid-melt crystallization was designed to prepare energetic coordination polymers.Two target compounds[Cu(NPyz)_(4)NO_(3)]·NO_(3)(ECPs-1)and Cu(NPyz)_(4)(ClO_(4))_(2)(ECCs-2)were prepared through programmed heating and cooling by using 4-nitropyrazole(NPyz),(Cu(NO_(3))_(2)·5H_(2)O and Cu(ClO_(4))_(2)·5H_(2)O) as raw materials.In addition,crystallization pre-experiments and annealing experiments also verified the feasibility of the method.Their structures were confirmed by IR,elemental analysis,single-crystal X-ray diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction.The physicochemical properties and sensitivity test results showed that ECCs-2 has better thermal stability(T_(d)=221℃),while ECPs-1 is less sensitive to mechanical stimuli(IS=12 J,FS=240 N).Calculations based on EXPLO5 and the Kamlet-Jacobs equation showed that ECCs-2 has more considerable detonation performance(P=25.2 GPa,D=7.5 km/s).In comparison,the more intuitive results from the HN test,flame test,thermal resistance test and lead plate explosion test revealed that ECCs-2 has an“acceptable”detonation performance.The laser detonation test also showed that ECCs-2 is a promising excellent laser detonation material(E=408 mJ,P=24 W,τ=17 ms).

Efficient catalytic conversion of carbohydrates into 5-ethoxymethylfurfural over MIL-101-based sulfated porous coordination polymers

In this work, a series of MIL-101-SO3H（x） polymeric materials were prepared and further used for the first time as efficient heterogeneous catalysts for the conversion of fructose-based carbohydrates into 5-ethoxymethylfurfural（EMF） in a renewable mixed solvent system consisting of ethanol and tetrahydrofuran（THF）. The influence of –SO3H content on the acidity as well as on the catalytic activity of the porous coordination polymers in EMF production was also studied. High EMF yields of 67.7% and 54.2% could be successively obtained from fructose and inulin in the presence of MIL-101-SO;H（100） at 130 °C for 15 h.The catalyst could be reused for five times without significant loss of its activity and the recovery process was facile and simple. This work provides a new platform by application of porous coordination polymers（PCPs） for the production of the potential liquid fuel molecule EMF from biomass in a sustainable solvent system.

Cluster-based Magnetic Porous Coordination Polymers

The creation of a porous magnet is a long-sought academic goal since magnetism and porosity are hostile to one another. While long-range magnetic ordering needs spin carriers of short separation through short bridges, porosity relies on the use of extended connecting ligands. Here, we will give a survey of the cluster-based magnetic porous coordination polymers, i.e., 0-D MPCPs, according to their functional subunits： （1） nanoporous spin crossover materials with single metal nodes; （2） metal-radical approach with rigid organic radical ligands and single metal nodes; （C） PCPs with rigid organic ligands and metal oligomer nodes; （D） PCPs with metal complex linkers and polymetal cluster nodes; （E） PCPs with organo-polymetal cluster linkers and single metal nodes. The assembly from clusters can provide a reasonable route to resolve the hostility between magnetism and porosity. This assembly’s merits are obvious： the pore benefits from the big cluster according to ＂Scale Chemistry＂, and the functional framework inherits interesting physical properties from the clusters with a large ground spin S.

Interesting Weak Interactions in Three Silver Coordination Polymers Based on Tetrafluorobenzenedicarboxylate and Benzonitrile Ligands

The assembly reactions of o- （or m-, or p-） tetrafluorobenzenedicarboxylic acid （denoted as o-H2L, m-H2L and p-HzL, respectively）, benzonitrile and Ag＋ ion led to three compounds： [Ag2（PhCN）2（o-HL）2]n （1）, [Ag2（PhCN）2（m-HL）2]n （2） and [Ag2（PhCN）2（p-L）], （3）. 1 and 2 feature a 1D coordination chain, while 3 bears a 2D net structure. A variety of weak interactions are observed in the compounds. Strong nwrinteractions connect the 1D chains into a 3D supramolecular network in 1. Hydrogen bonds connect the chains into layers in 2. Three types of interesting π-π interactions also assemble the 2D layers into a 3D overall structure in 3.

The fluorescent properties of 2 and 4 are also discussed.

Two-dimensional bimetallic coordination polymers as bifunctional evolved electrocatalysts for enhanced oxygen evolution reaction and urea oxidation reaction

Two-dimensional coordination polymers(CPs) have aroused tremendous interest as electrocatalysts because the catalytic performance could be fine-tuned by their well-designed coordination layers with highly accessible and active metal sites.However,it remains great challenge for CP-based catalysts to be utilized for electrocatalytic oxidation reactions due to their inefficient activities and low catalytic stabilities.Herein,we applied a mixed-metal strategy to fabricate two-dimensional Co_xNi_(1-x)-CPs with dual active sites for electrocatalytic water and urea oxidation.By metal ratio regulation in the twodimensional layer,an optimized Co_(2/3)Ni_(1/3)-CP exhibits a water oxidation performance with an overpotential of 325 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm^(-2) and a Tafel slope of 86 mV dec^(-1) in alkaline solution for oxygen evolution reaction.Importantly,a lower potential than that of commercial RuO_(2) is observed over20 mA cm^(-2).Co_(2/3)Ni_(1/3)-CP also displays a potential of 1.381 V at 10 mA cm^(-2) for urea oxidation reaction and a Tafel slope of 124 mV dec^(-1).This mixed-metal strategy to maximize synergistic effect of different metal centers may ultimately lead to promising electrocatalysts for small molecule oxidation reaction.

H_(2)O_(2)-sensitive nanoscale coordination polymers for photoacoustic tumors imaging via in vivo chromogenic assay

Photoacoustic(PA)imaging with much deeper tissue penetration and better spatial resolution had been widely employed for the prevention and diagnosis of many diseases.In this study,a new type of hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2)T-activated photoacoustic nanoprobe[Mn-AH nanoscale coordination polymer nanodots(NCPs)]was successfully synthesized by a simple one-step method in water phase containing 2,20-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)(ABTS),horse radish peroxidase(HRP),and manganese ion(Mn^(2+).After modification by polyethylene glycol(PEG),Mn-AH NCPs exhibited excellent stability and biocompatibility for in vivo H_(2)O_(2)-responsive chromogenic assay with great speci¯city and sensitivity.In the presence of H_(2)O_(2),colorless ABTS would be converted by HRP into the oxidized form with strong near-infrared(NIR)absorbance,enabling photoacoustic detection of endogenous H_(2)O_(2).Using H_(2)O_(2)-activated Mn-AH NCPs,we have successfully performed PA imaging and H_(2)O_(2)detection of subcutaneous murine colon CT26 tumor and deep-seated orthotopic bladder tumor.Due to the inherent Mn element existence inside the Mn-AH,this nanoprobe also serves as a good T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)contrast agent simultaneously.Lastly,after accomplishing its imaging functions,the Mn-AH NCPs could be cleared out from the body without any long-term toxicity,providing a new opportunity for cancer diagnosis and treatment.
