Superionic Conduction in Co-Vacant P2-Nax CoO2 Created by Hydrogen Reductive Elimination.

ABSTRACT: The layered P2-Nax MO2 (M: transition metal) system has been widely recognized as electronic or mixed conductor. Here, we demonstrate that Co vacancies in P2-Nax CoO2 created by hydrogen reductive elimination lead to an ionic conductivity of 0.045 S cm(-1) at 25 °C. Using in situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction and Raman spectroscopy, the composition of the superionic conduction phase is evaluated to be Na0.61 (H3 O)0.18 Co0.93 O2 . Electromotive force measurements as well as molecular dynamics simulations indicate that the ion conducting species is proton rather than hydroxide ion. The fact that the Co-stoichiometric compound Nax (H3 O)y CoO2 does not exhibit any significant ionic conductivity proves that Co vacancies are essential for the occurrence of superionic conductivity.

Concerted aryl-sulfur reductive elimination from PNP pincer-supported Co(iii) and subsequent Co(i)/Co(iii) comproportionation.

Project description:This report discloses a combined experimental and computational study aimed at understanding C-S reductive elimination from Co(iii) supported by a diarylamido/bis(phosphine) PNP pincer ligand. Divalent (PNP)Co-aryl complexes could be easily oxidized to five-coordinate Co(iii) derivatives, and anion metathesis provided five-coordinate (PNP)Co(Ar)(SAr') complexes of Co(iii). In contrast to their previously described (POCOP)Co(Ar)(SAr') analogs, but similarly to the (PNP)Rh(Ar)(SAr') and (POCOP)Rh(Ar)(SAr') analogs, (PNP)Co(Ar)(SAr') undergo C-S reductive elimination with the formation of the desired diarylsulfide product ArSAr'. DFT studies and experimental observations are consistent with a concerted process. However, in contrast to the Rh analogs, the immediate product of such reductive elimination, the unobserved Co(i) complex (PNP)Co, un-dergoes rapid comproportionation with the (PNP)Co(Ar)(SAr') starting material to give Co(ii) compounds (PNP)Co-Ar and (PNP)Co-SAr'.

Ultrabright photoactivatable fluorophores created by reductive caging.

Project description:Sub-diffraction-limit imaging can be achieved by sequential localization of photoactivatable fluorophores, for which the image resolution depends on the number of photons detected per localization. We report a strategy for fluorophore caging that creates photoactivatable probes with high photon yields. Upon photoactivation, these probes can provide 10(4)-10(6) photons per localization and allow imaging of fixed samples with resolutions of several nanometers. This strategy can be applied to many fluorophores across the visible spectrum.

Low Dimensional String-like Relaxation Underpins Superionic Conduction in Fluorites and Related Structures.

Project description:Among the superionic conductors that show a Faraday transition - the continuous increase in the ionic conductivity over a range of temperatures - the fluorite structures have enjoyed incisive examinations over the past four decades; yet the fundamental nature of superionicity has remained largely inconclusive. Departing from the traditional quasi-static defect framework, we provide weighty evidence for string-like dynamical structures that govern the fast ion conduction process in fluorites. We show that lower temperatures encourage the growth of longer but slowly relaxing strings and vice-versa - a direct manifestation of heterogeneous dynamics. Remarkably, the ionic conductivity is inversely correlated to the lifetime of the ions that participate in the strings and not explicitly to the ion population. Our analysis methodology, which resolves a long-standing disagreement on defect structures and the mechanism of ionic transport in fcc fluorite structures, is well-positioned to describe the dynamics of low dimensional conduction in a larger class of superionic conductors.

Electrochemical Oxidative Clean Halogenation Using HX/NaX with Hydrogen Evolution.

Project description:Organic halides (R-X) are prevalent structural motifs in pharmaceutical molecules and key building blocks for the synthesis of fine chemicals. Although a number of routes are available in the literature for the synthesis of organic halides, these methods often require stoichiometric additives or oxidants, metal catalysts, leaving or directing groups, or toxic halogenating agents. In addition, the necessity of employing different, often tailor-made, catalytic systems for each type of substrate also limits the applicability of these methods. Herein, we report a clean halogenation by electrochemical oxidation with NaX/HX. A series of organic halides were prepared under metal catalyst- and exogenous-oxidant-free reaction conditions. It is worth noting that this reaction has a broad substrate scope; various heteroarenes, arenes, alkenes, alkynes, and even aliphatic hydrocarbons could be applied. Most importantly, the reaction could also be performed on a 200-mmol scale with the same efficiency (86%, 50.9 g pure product).

Terminal Schwann cell and vacant site mediated synapse elimination at developing neuromuscular junctions.

Project description:Synapses undergo transition from polyinnervation by multiple axons to single innervation a few weeks after birth. Synaptic activity of axons and interaxonal competition are thought to drive this developmental synapse elimination and tested as key parameters in quantitative models for further understanding. Recent studies of muscle synapses (endplates) show that there are also terminal Schwann cells (tSCs), glial cells associated with motor neurons and their functions, and vacant sites (or vacancies) devoid of tSCs and axons proposing tSCs as key effectors of synapse elimination. However, there is no quantitative model that considers roles of tSCs including vacancies. Here we develop a stochastic model of tSC and vacancy mediated synapse elimination. It employs their areas on individual endplates quantified by electron microscopy-based analyses assuming that vacancies form randomly and are taken over by adjacent axons or tSCs. The model reliably reproduced synapse elimination whereas equal or random probability models, similar to classical interaxonal competition models, did not. Furthermore, the model showed that synapse elimination is accelerated by enhanced synaptic activity of one axon and also by increased areas of vacancies and tSCs suggesting that the areas are important structural correlates of the rate of synapse elimination.

Reductive elimination from arylpalladium cyanide complexes.

Project description:We report the isolation and characterization of arylpalladium cyanide complexes that undergo reductive elimination to form arylnitriles. The rates of reductive elimination from a series of arylpalladium cyanide complexes reveal that the electronic effects on the reductive elimination from arylpalladium cyanide complexes are distinct from those on reductive reductive eliminations from arylpalladium alkoxo, amido, thiolate, and enolate complexes. Arylpalladium cyanide complexes containing aryl ligands with electron-donating substituents undergo reductive elimination of aromatic nitriles faster than complexes containing aryl ligands with electron-withdrawing substituents. In addition, the transition state for the reductive elimination of the aromatic nitrile is much different from that for reductive eliminations that occur from most other arylpalladium complexes. Computational studies indicate that the reductive elimination of an arylnitrile from Pd(II) occurs through a transition state more closely related in structure and electronic distribution to that for the insertion of CO into a palladium-aryl bond.

A Zwitterionic Phosphonium Stannate(II) via Hydrogen Splitting by a Sn/P Frustrated Lewis-Pair and Reductive Elimination.

Project description:The reactivity of the frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) (F5 C2 )3 SnCH2 P(tBu)2 (1) was investigated with respect to the activation of elemental hydrogen. The reaction of 1 at elevated hydrogen pressure afforded the intramolecular phosphonium stannate(II) (F5 C2 )2 SnCH2 PH(tBu)2 (3). It was characterized by means of multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. NMR experiments with the two isotopologues H2 and D2 showed it to be formed via an H2 adduct (F5 C2 )3 HSnCH2 PH(tBu)2 (2) and the subsequent formal reductive elimination of pentafluoroethane; this is supported by DFT calculations. Parahydrogen-induced polarization experiments revealed the formation of a second product of the reaction of 1 with H2 , [HP(tBu)2 Me][Sn(C2 F5 )3 ] (4), in 1 H NMR spectra, whereas 2 was not detected due to its transient nature.

Reversible Reductive Elimination in Aluminum(II) Dihydrides.

Project description:Oxidative addition and reductive elimination are defining reactions of transition-metal organometallic chemistry. In main-group chemistry, oxidative addition is now well-established but reductive elimination reactions are not yet general in the same way. Herein, we report dihydrodialanes supported by amidophosphine ligands. The ligand serves as a stereochemical reporter for reversible reductive elimination/oxidative addition chemistry involving AlI and AlIII intermediates.

Unparalleled Lithium and Sodium Superionic Conduction in Solid Electrolytes with Large Monovalent Cage-like Anions.

Project description:Solid electrolytes with sufficiently high conductivities and stabilities are the elusive answer to the inherent shortcomings of organic liquid electrolytes prevalent in today's rechargeable batteries. We recently revealed a novel fast-ion-conducting sodium salt, Na2B12H12, which contains large, icosahedral, divalent B12H122- anions that enable impressive superionic conductivity, albeit only above its 529 K phase transition. Its lithium congener, Li2B12H12, possesses an even more technologically prohibitive transition temperature above 600 K. Here we show that the chemically related LiCB11H12 and NaCB11H12 salts, which contain icosahedral, monovalent CB11H12- anions, both exhibit much lower transition temperatures near 400 K and 380 K, respectively, and truly stellar ionic conductivities (> 0.1 S cm-1) unmatched by any other known polycrystalline materials at these temperatures. With proper modifications, we are confident that room-temperature-stabilized superionic salts incorporating such large polyhedral anion building blocks are attainable, thus enhancing their future prospects as practical electrolyte materials in next-generation, all-solid-state batteries.

Co-Catalyzed Synthesis of Primary Amines via Reductive Amination employing Hydrogen under very mild Conditions.

Project description:Nanostructured and reusable 3d-metal catalysts that operate with high activity and selectivity in important chemical reactions are highly desirable. Here, a cobalt catalyst was developed for the synthesis of primary amines via reductive amination employing hydrogen as the reducing agent and easy-to-handle ammonia, dissolved in water, as the nitrogen source. The catalyst operates under very mild conditions (1.5 mol% catalyst loading, 50 °C and 10 bar H2 pressure) and outperforms commercially available noble metal catalysts (Pd, Pt, Ru, Rh, Ir). A broad scope and a very good functional group tolerance were observed. The key for the high activity seemed to be the used support: an N-doped amorphous carbon material with small and turbostratically disordered graphitic domains, which is microporous with a bimodal size distribution and with basic NH functionalities in the pores.
