Unlike the titanium monoxide molecule, which reacted spontaneously with dioxygen to form TiO3, the ZrO and HfO molecules reacted with dioxygen to give the ZrO3 and HfO3 molecules only under visible light irradiation. Density functional calculations predicted that both the ZrO3 and HfO3 molecules possess a closed-shell singlet ground state with a non-planar C8 geometry, in which the side-on coordinated O2 falls into the peroxide category.展开更多

Some complex inorganic oxides are known that they may be promising color materials (absorbing visible light of certain wavelengths region) having potential application for environmentally benign catalysts, for example, photocatalysts. Chiral copper(Ⅱ) complexes having bidentate amine ligands ([CuL2]2+) can be acted as cationic building blocks of bimetallic metal complexes. We have prepared some chiral bimetallic complexes with various anionic metal complexes such as [PtCl4]2-, [M02O7]2 and Mn12 clusters (typical single-molecule magnets) which characterized by means of solid-state electronic and CD (circular dichroism) spectra, IR (infrared) spectra, synchrotron XRD (X-ray diffraction) and XAS (soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy). By sintering these precursor chiral bimetallic complexes, we have prepared complex inorganic oxides from them. The IR spectra indicated substituting metal-ligand bonds and losing organic moieties. The XRD pattern indicated complete changes of crystal structures. The XAS revealed replacing coordination atoms as well as oxidation of valences of metal ions. Furthermore, we will also investigate possibility of patterning by homogeneous precipitation method as bimetallic complexes to prepare desirable complex inorganic oxides.展开更多

Thermally-accessible lattice distortion was observed along the crystallographic a axis, which corresponded to Jahn-Teller distortion of Cu(II) chromophores. After firing [CuL2][Cr207], they could obtain a Cu(II)-Cr(VI) complex bimetallic oxide showing ferromagnetism and isotropic thermally-accessible lattice distortion. Preparation of composite materials of the coordination polymers and a complex bimetallic oxide could be confirmed by IR spectra and magnetic properties. It should be noted that the complex bimetallic oxide as the composite exhibited anisotropic thermally-accessible lattice distortion by adsorption of the chiral one-dimensional coordination polymer.展开更多

The complex belongs to a triclinic system, space group P?with a = 6.645(1), b = 9.870(2), c = 13.263(3) ? a = 70.68(3), b = 76.27(3), g = 71.66(3), V = 770.5(3) 3, Mr = 808.58, Dc = 1.743 g/cm3, Z = 1, m = 0.968 mm-1, l(MoKa) = 0.71073 and F(000) = 416. The final R = 0.0465 and wR = 0.1091 for 2974 observed diffractions with I ≥ 2s(I). In the complex, the V atom is octahedrally coordinated to the oxo ligand, two N and three O atoms of the triethylenetetraaminehexaacetic (TTHA) ligand. All of the ten chelating sites are coordinated to the two vanadium atoms, and the coordination octahedron is distorted. Each [V2O2(ttha)]2- ion is further connected by the K+ ions through carboxyl groups of TTHA6- ion, forming a two dimensional network structure.展开更多

The 2,3QD enzyme cleaves the O-heterocycle of a quercetin by incorporation of both oxygen atoms into the substrate and releases carbon monoxide. The calculations show that dioxygen attack on the copper complex is energetically favorable. The adduct has a possible near-degeneracy of states between [Cu2+-(substrate H+)] and [Cu+-(sub- strate-H). ], and in addition the pyramidalized C2 atom is ideally suited for forming a dioxygembridged structure. In the next step, the C3-C4 bond is cleaved and intermediate lnt5 is formed via transition state TS4. Finally, the Oa-Ob and C2-C3 bonds are cleaved, and CO is released in one concerted transition state (TS5) with the barrier of 63.25 and 61.91 k J/tool in the gas phase and protein environments, respectively. On the basis of our proposed reaction mechanism, this is the rate-limiting step of the whole catalytic cycle and is strongly driven by a relatively large exothermicity of 100.86 kJ/mol. Our work provides some valuable fundamental insights into the behavior of this enzyme.展开更多
