A Multifunctional Nanocage-based MOF with Tri- and Tetranuclear Zinc Cluster Secondary Building Units.

ABSTRACT: A new Zn-cluster based MOF, [Zn21(BTC)11(?3-OH)3(?4-O)3(H2O)18]·21EtOH (1) (H3BTC?=?1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid), with two different types of cluster nodes has been successfully synthesized from Zn2+ and H3BTC under the solvothermal conditions. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies reveal that 1 is a 3D trinodal (3,5,6)-c framework which features a large octahedral cage organized by nine Zn3O and nine Zn4O clusters SBUs and twenty-four triangular BTC3- linkers. The Eu3+/Tb3+-incorporated derivative of 1 with 0.251% Eu3+ and 0.269% Tb3+ exhibits tunable luminescence from yellow to white and then to blue-green by changing the excitation wavelength from 308 to 315?nm. Metal ion exchange with Cu2+ affords isomorphous Cu-based MOF with enhanced N2 and CO2 adsorption capacity. In addition, 1 can act as a selective luminescent sensor for Cu2+ and Al3+ ions.

A Homochiral Multifunctional Metal-Organic Framework with Rod-Shaped Secondary Building Units.

Project description:A new homochiral multifunctional metal-organic framework, [Zn₂(CTBA)₂·H₂O] (JUC-112), was synthesized under solvothermal conditions, through the design of chiral ligand 4-(3-carboxy-2,2,3-trimethylcyclopentanecarboxamido) benzoic acid (H₂CTBA) based on camphoric acid as building block. The crystal structure of the new material is a 2-dimensional (2D) chiral layer packed with infinite rod-shaped secondary building units (SBUs). The homochiral framework was identified by circular dichroism (CD) spectrum. Thermogravimetric measurement indicates its high thermal stability up to 450 °C. In addition, JUC-112 exhibits the capability of separating water from alcohols, second-order nonlinear optical effect, and photoluminescence.

The Anisotropic Responses of a Flexible Metal-Organic Framework Constructed from Asymmetric Flexible Linkers and Heptanuclear Zinc Carboxylate Secondary Building Units.

Project description:A new porous and flexible metal-organic framework (MOF) has been synthesized from the flexible asymmetric linker N-(4-carboxyphenyl)succinamate (CSA) and heptanuclear zinc oxo-clusters of formula [Zn7O2(carboxylate)10DMF2] involving two coordinated terminal DMF ligands. The structural response of this MOF to the removal or exchange of its guest molecules has been probed using a combination of experimental and computational approaches. The topology of the material, involving double linker connections in the a and b directions and single linker connections along the c axis, is shown to be key in the material's anisotropic response. The a and b directions remain locked during guest removal, whereas the c axis linker undergoes large changes significantly reducing the material's void space. The changes to the c axis linker involve a combination of a hinge motion on the linker's rigid side and conformational rearrangements on its flexible end, which were probed in detail during this process despite the presence of crystallographic disorder along this axis, which prevented accurate characterization by experimental methods alone. Although inactive during guest removal, the flexible ends of the a and b axis linkers are observed to play a prominent role during DMF to DMSO solvent exchange, facilitating the exchange reaction arising in the cluster.

2D Porphyrinic Metal-Organic Frameworks Featuring Rod-Shaped Secondary Building Units.

Project description:Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) encompass a rapidly expanding class of materials with diverse potential applications including gas storage, molecular separation, sensing and catalysis. So-called 'rod MOFs', which comprise infinitely extended 1D secondary building units (SBUs), represent an underexplored subclass of MOF. Further, porphyrins are considered privileged ligands for MOF synthesis due to their tunable redox and photophysical properties. In this study, the CuII complex of 5,15-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)-10,20-diphenylporphyrin (H2L-CuII, where H2 refers to the ligand's carboxyl H atoms) is used to prepare two new 2D porphyrinic rod MOFs PROD-1 and PROD-2. Single-crystal X-ray analysis reveals that these frameworks feature 1D MnII- or CoII-based rod-like SBUs that are coordinated by labile solvent molecules and photoactive porphyrin moieties. Both materials were characterised using infrared (IR) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The structural attributes of PROD-1 and PROD-2 render them promising materials for future photocatalytic investigations.

Selection of oxygen reduction catalysts for secondary tri-electrode zinc-air batteries.

Project description:Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalysts, which are highly efficient, low-cost, yet durable, are important for secondary Zn-air cell applications. ORR activities of single and mixed metal oxide and carbon electrocatalysts were studied using rotating disc electrode (RDE) measurements, Tafel slope and Koutecky-Levich plots. It was found that MnOx combined with XC-72R demonstrated high ORR activity and good stability-up to 100 mA cm-2. The performance of the selected ORR electrode and a previously optimised oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrode was thereafter tested in a custom-built secondary Zn-air cell in a tri-electrode configuration, and the effects of current density, electrolyte molarity, temperature, and oxygen purity on the performance of the ORR and OER electrode were investigated. Finally, the durability of the secondary Zn-air system was assessed, demonstrating energy efficiencies of 58-61% at 20 mA cm-2 over 40 h in 4 M NaOH + 0.3 M ZnO at 333 K.

Metal-organic frameworks constructed from monomeric, dimeric and trimeric phenanthroline citrate zinc building units.

Project description:Adduct of mononuclear and dinuclear citrate zinc complex [Zn(Hcit)(phen)(H2O)][Zn2(Hcit)(phen)2(H2O)3]·13.5H2O (1) and its aggregate [Zn3(Hcit)2(phen)4]n·14nH2O (2) (H4cit = citric acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) were synthesized in weak acidic solutions. The former was obtained from the reaction of zinc nitrate, citric acid and phenanthroline in a molar ratio of 3 : 2 : 3, while a slightly excess of phenanthroline results in the formation of the polymeric product 2 in a molar ratio of 3 : 2 : 4. Transformation of 1 to 2 was finished by the reaction of 1 with an equimolar of phenanthroline in 72% yield. Reverse conversion of 2 to 1 is obtained in 77% yield, showing an equilibrium between 1 and 2. Neutral compound 1 consists of one monomeric anionic unit [Zn(Hcit)(phen)(H2O)]- and one dimeric cationic unit [Zn2(Hcit)(phen)2(H2O)3]+ that connect each other by strong hydrogen bonds [O6?O4w 2.636(2); O7?O3w 2.630(3) Å]. In 2, the citrate ligand links each trinuclear unit [Zn3(Hcit)2(phen)4] to generate an infinite 1D chain that extents into a 3D supramolecular structure by intra- and inter-molecular hydrogen bonds. Moreover, 1 and 2 exhibit strong fluorescence at room temperature.

Soft nanobrush-directed multifunctional MOF nanoarrays.

Project description:Controlled growth of well-oriented metal-organic framework nanoarrays on requisite surfaces is of prominent significance for a broad range of applications such as catalysis, sensing, optics and electronics. Herein, we develop a highly flexible soft nanobrush-directed synthesis approach for precise in situ fabrication of MOF nanoarrays on diverse substrates. The soft nanobrushes are constructed via surface-initiated living crystallization-driven self-assembly and their active poly(2-vinylpyridine) corona captures abundant metal cations through coordination interactions. This allows the rapid heterogeneous growth of MOF nanoparticles and the subsequent formation of MIL-100 (Fe), HKUST-1 and CUT-8 (Cu) nanoarrays with tailored heights of 220~1100 nm on silicon wafer, Ni foam and ceramic tube. Auxiliary functional components including metal oxygen clusters and precious metal nanoparticles can be readily incorporated to finely fabricate hybrid structures with synergistic features. Remarkably, the MIL-100 (Fe) nanoarrays doped with Keggin H3PMo10V2O40 dramatically boost formaldehyde selectivity up to 92.8% in catalytic oxidation of methanol. Moreover, the HKUST-1 nanoarrays decorated with Pt nanoparticles show exceptional sensitivity to H2S with a ppb-level detection limit.

Cobalt-bridged secondary building units in a titanium metal-organic framework catalyze cascade reduction of N-heteroarenes.

Project description:We report here a novel Ti3-BPDC metal-organic framework (MOF) constructed from biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate (BPDC) linkers and Ti3(OH)2 secondary building units (SBUs) with permanent porosity and large 1D channels. Ti-OH groups from neighboring SBUs point toward each other with an O-O distance of 2 Å, and upon deprotonation, act as the first bidentate SBU-based ligands to support CoII-hydride species for effective cascade reduction of N-heteroarenes (such as pyridines and quinolines) via sequential dearomative hydroboration and hydrogenation, affording piperidine and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline derivatives with excellent activity (turnover number ∼ 1980) and chemoselectivity.

Protein interface redesign facilitates the transformation of nanocage building blocks to 1D and 2D nanomaterials.

Project description:Although various artificial protein nanoarchitectures have been constructed, controlling the transformation between different protein assemblies has largely been unexplored. Here, we describe an approach to realize the self-assembly transformation of dimeric building blocks by adjusting their geometric arrangement. Thermotoga maritima ferritin (TmFtn) naturally occurs as a dimer; twelve of these dimers interact with each other in a head-to-side manner to generate 24-meric hollow protein nanocage in the presence of Ca2+ or PEG. By tuning two contiguous dimeric proteins to interact in a fully or partially side-by-side fashion through protein interface redesign, we can render the self-assembly transformation of such dimeric building blocks from the protein nanocage to filament, nanorod and nanoribbon in response to multiple external stimuli. We show similar dimeric protein building blocks can generate three kinds of protein materials in a manner that highly resembles natural pentamer building blocks from viral capsids that form different protein assemblies.

Transcriptional units form the elementary constraining building blocks of the bacterial chromosome

Project description:Transcription generates local topological and mechanical constraints along the DNA fiber, driving for instance the generation of supercoiled chromosomal domains in bacteria. However, the global impact of transcription-based regulation of chromosome organization remains elusive. Notably, the scale of genes and operons in bacteria remains well below the resolution of chromosomal contact maps generated using Hi-C (~ 5 - 10 kb), preventing to resolve the impact of transcription on genomic organization at the fine-scale. Here, we combined sub-kb Hi-C contact maps and chromosome engineering to visualize individual transcriptional units (TUs) while turning off transcription across the rest of the genome. We show that each TU forms a discrete, transcription-induced 3D domain (TIDs). These local structures impose mechanical and topological constraints on their neighboring sequences at larger scales, bringing them closer together and restricting their dynamics. These results show that the primary building blocks of bacteria chromosome folding consists of transcriptional domains that together shape the global genome structure.
