Supramolecule-to-supramolecule transformations of coordination-driven self-assembled polygons.

ABSTRACT: Two types of supramolecular transformations, wherein a self-assembled Pt(II)-pyridyl metal-organic polygon is controllably converted into an alternative polygon, have been achieved through the reaction between cobalt carbonyl and the acetylene moiety of a dipyridyl donor ligand. A [6 + 6] hexagon is transformed into two [3 + 3] hexagons, and a triangle-square mixture is converted into [2 + 2] rhomboids. 1H and 31P NMR spectra are used to track the transformation process and evaluate the yield of new self-assembled polygons. Such transformed species are identified by electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry. This new kind of supramolecule-to-supramolecule transformations provides a viable means for constructing, and then converting, new self-assembled polygons.

Direct and quantitative characterization of dynamic ligand exchange between coordination-driven self-assembled supramolecular polygons.

Project description:The direct observation of dynamic ligand exchange between Pt-N coordination-driven self-assembled supramolecular polygons (triangles and rectangles) has been achieved using stable (1)H/(2)D isotope labeling of the pyridyl donors and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry combined with NMR spectroscopy. Both the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of such exchange processes have been established on the basis of quantitative mass spectral results. Further investigation has shown that the exchange is highly dependent on experimental conditions such as temperature, solvent, and the counteranions.

Geometry directed self-selection in the coordination-driven self-assembly of irregular supramolecular polygons.

Project description:The self-assembly of irregular metallo-supramolecular hexagons and parallelograms has been achieved in a self-selective manner upon mixing 120 degrees unsymmetrical dipyridyl ligands with 60 degrees or 120 degrees organoplatinum acceptors in a 1:1 ratio. The polygons have been characterized using (31)P and (1)H multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) as well as X-ray crystallography. Geometric features of the molecular subunits direct the self-selection process, which is supported by molecular force field computations.

Self-cleaning MOF: realization of extreme water repellence in coordination driven self-assembled nanostructures.

Project description:Bio-inspired self-cleaning surfaces have found industrial applications in oil-water separation, stain resistant textiles, anti-biofouling paints in ships etc. Interestingly, self-cleaning metal-organic framework (MOF) materials having high water contact angles and corrosion resistance have not been realized so far. To address this issue, we have used the fundamentals of self-assembly to expose hydrophobic alkyl chains on a MOF surface. This decreases the surface free energy and hence increases hydrophobicity. Coordination directed self-assembly of dialkoxyoctadecyl-oligo-(p-phenyleneethynylene)dicarboxylate (OPE-C18 ) with ZnII in a DMF/H2O mixture leads to a three dimensional supramolecular porous framework {Zn(OPE-C18)·2H2O} (NMOF-1) with nanobelt morphology. Inherently superhydrophobic and self-cleaning NMOF-1 has high thermal and chemical stability. The periodic arrangement of 1D Zn-OPE-C18 chains with octadecyl alkyl chains projecting outward reduces the surface free energy leading to superhydrophobicity in NMOF-1 (contact angle: 160-162°). The hierarchical surface structure thus generated, enables NMOF-1 to mimic the lotus leaf in its self-cleaning property with an unprecedented tilt angle of 2°. Additionally, superhydrophobicity remains intact over a wide pH range (1-9) and under high ionic concentrations. We believe that such a development in this field will herald a new class of materials capable of water repellent applications.

A designer self-assembled supramolecule amplifies macrophage immune responses against aggressive cancer.

Project description:Effectively activating macrophages that can 'eat' cancer cells is challenging. In particular, cancer cells secrete macrophage colony stimulating factor (MCSF), which polarizes tumour-associated macrophages from an antitumour M1 phenotype to a pro-tumourigenic M2 phenotype. Also, cancer cells can express CD47, an 'eat me not' signal that ligates with the signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) receptor on macrophages to prevent phagocytosis. Here, we show that a supramolecular assembly consisting of amphiphiles inhibiting the colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF-1R) and displaying SIRPα-blocking antibodies with a drug-to-antibody ratio of 17,000 can disable both mechanisms. The supramolecule homes onto SIRPα on macrophages, blocking the CD47-SIRPα signalling axis while sustainedly inhibiting CSF-1R. The supramolecule enhances the M2-to-M1 repolarization within the tumour microenvironment, and significantly improves antitumour and antimetastatic efficacies in two aggressive animal models of melanoma and breast cancer, with respect to clinically available small-molecule and biologic inhibitors of CSF-1R signalling. Simultaneously blocking the CD47-SIRPα and MCSF-CSF-1R signalling axes may constitute a promising immunotherapy.

Construction of coordination-driven self-assembled [5 + 5] pentagons using metal-carbonyl dipyridine ligands.

Project description:The coordination-driven self-assembly of two metal-carbonyl-cluster-coordinated dipyridyl donors, (4-C(5)H(4)N)(2)C[triple bond]CCo(2)(CO)(6) (1) and (4-C(5)H(4)N)(2)C[triple bond]CMo(2)Cp(2)(CO)(4) (2), with a linear diplatinum(II) acceptor ligand was investigated. The structures of the resulting self-assembled polygons were found to be controlled by the steric bulk of the metal-carbonyl cluster adduct. The use of a sterically less imposing ligand 1 resulted in a pentagon-hexagon mixture, which was characterized by electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectroscopy. The exclusive formation of a [5 + 5] pentagon was achieved by the self-assembly of the bulkier molybdenum donor ligand 2 with a linear organoplatinum(II) acceptor ligand. Molecular force field modeling was used to study the structural details of the pentagonal and hexagonal architectures. The first Fe(3)-Co(6)-Pt(6) trimetal [3 + 3] hexagon was also synthesized via the combination of 1 with a 120 degrees ferrocenyldiplatinum(II) acceptor.

New Microbe Killers: Self-Assembled Silver(I) Coordination Polymers Driven by a Cagelike Aminophosphine.

Project description:New Ag(I) coordination polymers, formulated as [Ag(µ-PTAH)(NO3)2]n (1) and [Ag(µ-PTA)(NO2)]n (2), were self-assembled as light- and air-stable microcrystalline solids and fully characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS(±), elemental analysis, powder (PXRD) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Their crystal structures reveal resembling 1D metal-ligand chains that are driven by the 1,3,5-triaza-7-phospaadamantane (PTA) linkers and supported by terminal nitrate or nitrite ligands; these chains were classified within a 2C1 topological type. Additionally, the structure of 1 features a 1D?2D network extension through intermolecular hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network with fes topology. Furthermore, both products 1 and 2 exhibit remarkable antimicrobial activity against different human pathogen bacteria (S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa) and yeast (C. albicans), which is significantly superior to the activity of silver(I) nitrate as a reference topical antimicrobial.

Capture and Release of Singlet Oxygen in Coordination-Driven Self-Assembled Organoplatinum(II) Metallacycles.

Project description:Singlet oxygen (1O2), as an important active reagent, has found wide applications in photodynamic therapy (PDT), synthetic chemistry, and materials science. Organic conjugated aromatics serving as hosts to capture and release singlet oxygen have been systematically investigated over the last decades. Herein, we present a [6 + 6] organoplatinum(II) metallacycle by using ∼180° dipyridylanthracene donor and ∼120° Pt(II) acceptor as the building blocks, which enables the capture and release of singlet oxygen with relatively high photooxygenation and thermolysis rate constants. The photooxygenation of the metallacycle to the corresponding endoperoxide was performed by sensitized irradiation, and the resulting endoperoxide is stable at room temperature and can be stored under ambient condition over months. Upon simple heating of the neat endoperoxide under inert atmosphere at 120 °C for 4 h, the resulting endoperoxide can be reconverted to the corresponding parent form and singlet oxygen. The photooxygenation and thermolysis products were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometric analysis. Density functional theory calculations were conducted in order to reveal the frontier molecular orbital interactions and reactivity. This work provides a new material platform for singlet oxygen related promising applications.

Coordination-Driven Self-Assembled Metallacycles Incorporating Pyrene: Fluorescence Mutability, Tunability, and Aromatic Amine Sensing.

Project description:Constructing polycyclic aromatics-based, highly emissive fluorophores with good solubility and tunable aggregated structures and properties is of great importance for film fabrication, solution processing, and relevant functionality studies. Herein, we describe a general strategy to endow conventional organic fluorophores with enhanced solubility and modulated fluorescent properties via their incorporation into coordination-driven self-assembled metallacycles. A widely used fluorophore, pyrene, was decorated with two pyridyl groups to yield functionalized pyrene 4. Mixing 4 with three aromatic dicarboxylates with different lengths and a 90° Pt(II) metal acceptor in a 2:2:4 stoichiometric ratio resulted in the formation of three metallacycles, 1, 2, and 3. The metallacycles display good solubility in polar organic solvents, highly aggregation-dependent fluorescence, and size-dependent emissions at higher concentrations. Moreover, metallacycle 2-based, silica-gel-supported film as fabricated not only is more emissive than the ligand 4-based one but also displays much improved sensing properties for amines in the vapor state, as demonstrated by significantly increased response speed and decreased recovery time. The enhanced solubility, unique fluorescence behavior, and multi-factor modulation character show that coordination-driven self-assembly can be utilized for the development of new fluorophores through simple modification of conventional fluorophores. The fluorophores synthesized this way possess not only complex topological structures but also good modularity and tunability in fluorescence behavior, which are important for grafting multi-stage energy-transfer systems necessary for the development of high-performance sensing materials.

Zn(ii)-Coordination-driven self-assembled nanoagents for multimodal imaging-guided photothermal/gene synergistic therapy.

Project description:Synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT) with gene therapy (GT) has drawn emerging interest in the improvement of cancer therapeutic efficiency, while the co-delivery of photothermal agents (PTAs) and therapeutic genes by an integrated nanoplatform, with controllability and biodegradability, is still challenging and urgently desired. Herein, a multi-functional metal-organic framework (MOF) based PTT-GT platform (siRNA@PT-ZIF-8) was developed, which was constructed with siRNA, a near-infrared (NIR) responsive organic dye IR780 derivative (IR780-1), and 2-methylimidazole (2-MIM) by a facile one-pot self-assembly method. This "all-in-one" system of siRNA@PT-ZIF-8 enabled not only photothermal/photoacoustic/fluorescence multimodal imaging but also tumor microenvironment responsiveness for specific and on-demand release of therapeutic cargos, overcoming the inherent limitations of free gene or organic PTA molecules (e.g., short blood circulation half-life and weak stability) in conventional PTT and GT. This nanoplatform provides an efficient and safe strategy for cancer theranostics, and the one-step assembly strategy favors personalized formulation design for diverse demands in cancer management.
