Nevertheless, it is little known about novel dicationic ionic liquids for tribology applications in the past several years. In this paper, a sequence of novel dicationic ionic liquids based on 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane cations(DABCO) and different anions have been designed and identified. The structures of ILs were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectra, multinuclear(~1H,^(13)C,^(11)B,^(31)P and ^(19)F) magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry. The effects of anion type on thermal properties, wettability, kinematic viscosity and tribological properties were studied. It is found that all of these dicationic ionic liquids as additives exhibit excellent anti-wear and friction-reducing properties in PEG synthetic base oil under boundary lubrication conditions for steel-to-steel contact, which offers great potential for the highly efficient lubricant additives. Simultaneously, novel 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane cation offers an exceptional chance for the research and development of dicationic ionic liquids in various applications.展开更多

The gas phase theoretical and experimental analysis on [Pb(Benzene)2]2+ was conducted. The [Pb(Benzene)2]2+ complex ions were prepared using a combination of the pick-up technique and high energy electron impact, and then held in a cold ion trap. Excitation with tuneable UV radiation resulted in the formation of [Pb(Benzene)2(H2O)]2+, [Pb(Benzene)2(H2O)2]2+, [Pb(Benzene)]+, Pb+ and Benzene+ ions when the experimental results were analysed. The two optimised geometries of [Pb(Benzene)2]2+ namely the C2V eclipse and C2 staggered were observed. Methane activation of [Pb(Benzene)2]2+ complex ion yielded [Pb(Benzene)2(Me)]2+. [Pb(Benzene)2(H2O)(Me)2]2+,? [Pb(Benzene)2(H2O)(Me)]2+, [PbBenzene(Me)3]2+ and [Pb(Benzene)(Me)]2+. The PEC calculated binding energy of methane to lead benzene dication complex ion was approximately 25.45% higher than the value recorded on DFT calculation. This difference was due to the charge differences on the lead metal centre. While the actual calculated charge on the Pb metal in the optimised geometry was 1.68 the charge of +2 on the Pb metal was considered in the PEC calculation.展开更多

The double ionization energies of molecules were determined with photoionization efficiency spectroscopy. The total energies of these molecules and their parent dications (NO^2+,CO^2+,CO2^2+, CS2^2+, OSC^2+and NH^2+) were calculated using the Gaussian O3 program and Gaussian 2 (NO^2+, CO^2+, CO2^2+,CS2^2+,OSC^2+ and NH3^2+) were calculated using the Gaussian 03 program and Gaussian 2 calculations. Then, the adiabatic double ionization energies of the molecules were predicated by using high accuracy energy mode. The experimental double ionization energies of these small molecules were all in reasonable agreement with their respective calculated adiabatic double ionization energies. The mechanisms of double photoionization of these molecules were discussed based on a comparison of our experimental results with those predicted theoretically. The equilibrium geometries and harmonic vibrational frequencies of molecules and their parent dications were calculated by using the MP2 (full) method. The differences in configurations between these molecules and their parent dications were also discussed on the basis of theoretical calculations.展开更多

Interactions between a symmetrical tetramethyl-substituted cucurbit[6]uril (host:TMeQ[6]) and 1,ω-alkylenedipyridine (ω = 2,4,6,8,10) dicationic guests were investigated using 1H NMR spectroscopy and single crystal ...Interactions between a symmetrical tetramethyl-substituted cucurbit[6]uril (host:TMeQ[6]) and 1,ω-alkylenedipyridine (ω = 2,4,6,8,10) dicationic guests were investigated using 1H NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray crystallography. In these inclusion complexes,combined cavity and portal binding in TMeQ[6] were observed,and the length of the bridged alkylene was found to play an important role not only in balancing the overall hydrophilic/hydrophobic interaction between the host and the guest,but also in defining the structure of the resulting inclusion complexes. For the guest 1,2-ethylenedipyridine (Edpy),TMeQ[6] includes a positively charged pyridine ring of Edpy to form an unsymmetrical inclusion complex; for the guest 1,4-butylenedipyridine (Bdpy),TMeQ[6] includes a positively charged pyridine ring of Bdpy,but the different competitive interactions in and between the related inclusion complexes could lead to a fast exchange between the hosts and guests. For the guests with longer bridge chains,such as 1,6-hexamethylenedipyridine (Hdpy) or 1,8-octylenedipyridine (Odpy),a stable pseudorotaxane inclusion complex is formed by combining the hydrophobic cavity and the outer portal dipoleion interactions. However,for 1,10-decatylenedipyridine (Ddpy),the two TMeQ[6] host molecules include the two end pyridine rings of Ddpy and form a dumbbell inclusion complex.展开更多

In these inclusion complexes,combined cavity and portal binding in TMeQ[6] were observed,and the length of the bridged alkylene was found to play an important role not only in balancing the overall hydrophilic/hydrophobic interaction between the host and the guest,but also in defining the structure of the resulting inclusion complexes. For the guest 1,2-ethylenedipyridine (Edpy),TMeQ[6] includes a positively charged pyridine ring of Edpy to form an unsymmetrical inclusion complex; for the guest 1,4-butylenedipyridine (Bdpy),TMeQ[6] includes a positively charged pyridine ring of Bdpy,but the different competitive interactions in and between the related inclusion complexes could lead to a fast exchange between the hosts and guests. For the guests with longer bridge chains,such as 1,6-hexamethylenedipyridine (Hdpy) or 1,8-octylenedipyridine (Odpy),a stable pseudorotaxane inclusion complex is formed by combining the hydrophobic cavity and the outer portal dipoleion interactions. However,for 1,10-decatylenedipyridine (Ddpy),the two TMeQ[6] host molecules include the two end pyridine rings of Ddpy and form a dumbbell inclusion complex.

文摘Herein,we conceptualized a transient mediator approach that has the capability of para-selective C–H functionalization of monosubstituted aromatics.This approach is enabled by in situ generation of a versatile sulfonium salt via highly electrophilic phenoxathiine or thianthrene dication intermediate which can be readily generated from its sulfoxide with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride.Preliminary mechanistic study implied that the remarkable para selectivity might be related to the incredible electrophilicity of thianthrene dication intermediate.The versatility of this approach was demonstrated via paraborylation of various monosubstituted simple aromatics combining the sulfonium salt formation with further photocatalyzed transformation.
