Topological prediction of palladium coordination cages.

ABSTRACT: The preparation of functionalized, heteroleptic Pd _x L_2x coordination cages is desirable for catalytic and optoelectronic applications. Current rational design of these cages uses the angle between metal-binding (∠B) sites of the di(pyridyl)arene linker to predict the topology of homoleptic cages obtained via non-covalent chemistry. However, this model neglects the contributions of steric bulk between the pyridyl residues-a prerequisite for endohedrally functionalized cages, and fails to rationalize heteroleptic cages. We describe a classical mechanics (CM) approach to predict the topological outcomes of Pd _x L_2x coordination cage formation with arbitrary linker combinations, accounting for the electronic effects of coordination and steric effects of linker structure. Initial validation of our CM method with reported homoleptic Pd₁₂ LFu ₂₄ (LFu = 2,5-bis(pyridyl)furan) assembly suggested the formation of a minor topology Pd₁₅ LFu ₃₀, identified experimentally by mass spectrometry. Application to heteroleptic cage systems employing mixtures of LFu (∠B = 127°) and its thiophene congener LTh (∠B = 149° ∠B _exp = 152.4°) enabled prediction of Pd₁₂L₂₄ and Pd₂₄L₄₈ coordination cages formation, reliably emulating experimental data. Finally, the topological outcome for exohedrally (LEx) and endohedrally (LEn) functionalized heteroleptic Pd _x L_2x coordination cages were predicted to assess the effect of steric bulk on both topological outcomes and coordination cage yields, with comparisons drawn to experimental data.

Methane Storage in Paddlewheel-Based Porous Coordination Cages.

Project description:Although gas adsorption properties of extended three-dimensional metal-organic materials have been widely studied, they remain relatively unexplored in porous molecular systems. This is particularly the case for porous coordination cages for which surface areas are typically not reported. Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization, activation, and gas adsorption properties of a family of carbazole-based cages. The chromium analog displays a coordination cage record BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) surface area of 1235 m2/g. With precise synthesis and activation procedures, two previously reported cages similarly display high surface areas. The materials exhibit high methane adsorption capacities at 65 bar with the chromium(II) cage displaying CH4 capacities of 194 cm3/g and 148 cm3/cm3. This high uptake is a result of optimal pore design, which was confirmed via powder neutron diffraction experiments.

Understanding Gas Storage in Cuboctahedral Porous Coordination Cages.

Project description:Porous molecular solids are promising materials for gas storage and gas separation applications. However, given the relative dearth of structural information concerning these materials, additional studies are vital for further understanding their properties and developing design parameters for their optimization. Here, we examine a series of isostructural cuboctahedral, paddlewheel-based coordination cages, M24(tBu-bdc)24 (M = Cr, Mo, Ru; tBu-bdc2- = 5-tert-butylisophthalate), for high-pressure methane storage. As the decrease in crystallinity upon activation of these porous molecular materials precludes diffraction studies, we turn to a related class of pillared coordination cage-based metal-organic frameworks, M24(Me-bdc)24(dabco)6 (M = Fe, Co; Me-bdc2- = 5-methylisophthalate; dabco = 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) for neutron diffraction studies. The five porous materials display BET surface areas from 1057-1937 m2/g and total methane uptake capacities of up to 143 cm3(STP)/cm3. Both the porous cages and cage-based frameworks display methane adsorption enthalpies of -15 to -22 kJ/mol. Also supported by molecular modeling, neutron diffraction studies indicate that the triangular windows of the cage are favorable methane adsorption sites with CD4-arene interactions between 3.7 and 4.1 Å. At both low and high loadings, two additional methane adsorption sites on the exterior surface of the cage are apparent for a total of 56 adsorption sites per cage. These results show that M24L24 cages are competent gas storage materials and further adsorption sites may be optimized by judicious ligand functionalization to control extracage pore space.

Coordination Cages Selectively Transport Molecular Cargoes Across Liquid Membranes.

Project description:Chemical purifications are critical processes across many industries, requiring 10-15% of humanity's global energy budget. Coordination cages are able to catch and release guest molecules based upon their size and shape, providing a new technological basis for achieving chemical separation. Here, we show that aqueous solutions of FeII4L6 and CoII4L4 cages can be used as liquid membranes. Selective transport of complex hydrocarbons across these membranes enabled the separation of target compounds from mixtures under ambient conditions. The kinetics of cage-mediated cargo transport are governed by guest binding affinity. Using sequential transport across two consecutive membranes, target compounds were isolated from a mixture in a size-selective fashion. The selectivities of both cages thus enabled a two-stage separation process to isolate a single compound from a mixture of physicochemically similar molecules.

Porous metal-organic alloys based on soluble coordination cages.

Project description:Diverse strategies for the preparation of mixed-metal three-dimensional porous solids abound, although many of them lend themselves only moderate levels of tunability. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of surface functionalized permanently microporous coordination cages and their use in the isolation of mixed metal solids. Judicious alkoxide-based ligand functionalization was utilized to tune the solubility of starting copper(ii)-based cages and their resulting compatibility with the mixed-cage approach described here. We further prepared a family of isostructural molybdenum(ii) cages for a subset of the ligands. The preparation of mixed-metal cage solids proceeds under facile conditions where solutions of parent cages are mixed and product phases isolated. A suite of spectroscopic and characterization tools confirm the starting cages are intact in the amorphous product. Finally, we show that utilization of precise ligand functional groups can be used to prepare mixed cage solids that can be easily and cleanly separated into their constituent components through simple solvent washing or solvent extraction techniques.

Topological portraits of multiscale coordination dynamics.

Project description:Living systems exhibit complex yet organized behavior on multiple spatiotemporal scales. To investigate the nature of multiscale coordination in living systems, one needs a meaningful and systematic way to quantify the complex dynamics, a challenge in both theoretical and empirical realms. The present work shows how integrating approaches from computational algebraic topology and dynamical systems may help us meet this challenge. In particular, we focus on the application of multiscale topological analysis to coordinated rhythmic processes. First, theoretical arguments are introduced as to why certain topological features and their scale-dependency are highly relevant to understanding complex collective dynamics. Second, we propose a method to capture such dynamically relevant topological information using persistent homology, which allows us to effectively construct a multiscale topological portrait of rhythmic coordination. Finally, the method is put to test in detecting transitions in real data from an experiment of rhythmic coordination in ensembles of interacting humans. The recurrence plots of topological portraits highlight collective transitions in coordination patterns that were elusive to more traditional methods. This sensitivity to collective transitions would be lost if the behavioral dynamics of individuals were treated as separate degrees of freedom instead of constituents of the topology that they collectively forge. Such multiscale topological portraits highlight collective aspects of coordination patterns that are irreducible to properties of individual parts. The present work demonstrates how the analysis of multiscale coordination dynamics can benefit from topological methods, thereby paving the way for further systematic quantification of complex, high-dimensional dynamics in living systems.

Design and self-assembly of wide and robust coordination cages.

Project description:The self-assembly of a new class of coordination cages formed from two tetrapyridyl-substituted cavitands connected through four square-planar palladium or platinum complexes is reported. The shape of the internal cavity resembles an ellipsoid with a calculated volume of 840 A(3). The four lateral portals have a diameter of about 6 A, large enough to allow the fast entrance/egress of counterions in solution. The platinum cages 3a,e cannot be disassembled using triethylamine as competitive ligand and they are kinetically stable at room temperature, whereas the palladium cages 3b-d, 3f-h are disassembled and kinetically labile under the same conditions. The different solubility properties of the cage components have allowed the extension of this self-assembly protocol to the liquid-liquid interface.

Self-assembly of nanoscopic coordination cages of D(3h) symmetry.

Project description:A family of nanoscale-sized supramolecular cage compounds with a trigonal prismatic framework was prepared by means of spontaneous self-assembly from the combination of a predesigned molecular "clip" with tritopic pyridyl subunits. As confirmed by x-ray crystallography, the smallest structure of the reported series is approximately 1 x 2 nm and possesses a nitrate anion incarcerated inside its molecular cavity. The largest structure has dimensions of approximately 1 x 4 nm.

Diamondoid Supramolecular Coordination Frameworks from Discrete Adamantanoid Platinum(II) Cages.

Project description:Recently, porous framework materials with various network-type structures have been constructed via several different approaches, such as coordination interactions, reversible covalent bonds, and non-covalent interactions. Here, we have combined the concepts of supramolecular coordination complex (SCC) and metal-organic framework to offer a new strategy to construct a diamondoid supramolecular coordination framework (SCF) from an adamantanoid supramolecular coordination cage as the tetrahedral node and a difunctional Pt(II) ligand as the linear linker via stepwise orientation-induced supramolecular coordination. The adamantanoid supramolecular coordination cage has four uncoordinated pyridyl groups, which serve as the four vertexes of the tetrahedral geometry in the diamondoid framework. As a result, this diamondoid SCF exhibits an adamantanoid-to-adamantanoid substructure with two sets of pores, including the interior cavity of the adamantanoid cage and the extended adamantanoid space between the individual cages in the framework. In addition, the shape-controllable and highly ordered self-assembly of nanometer-sized diamondoid SCF is observed as micrometer-sized regular octahedrons by evaporation under heating in DMSO. This study demonstrates the potential application of supramolecular coordination complexes in the precise construction of highly regulated porous framework materials.

Design and self-assembly of hexahedral coordination cages for cascade reactions.

Project description:The search for supramolecular reactors that contain no catalytically active sites but can promote chemical transformations has received significant attention, but it remains a synthetic challenge. Here we demonstrate a strategy of incorporating bulky and electro-rich aromatic linkers into metallocages to induce cascade reactions. Two hexahedral cages with a framework formula [(Zn8L6)(OTf)16] are assembled from six tetrakis-bidentate ligands derived from tetraphenylethylene and eight zinc(II)tris(pyridylimine) centers. The cage cavities can accommodate different molecules such as anthranilamide and aromatic aldehyde through supramolecular interactions, allowing for a cascade condensation and cyclization to produce nonplanar 2,3-dihyroquinazolinones. The reaction is highly efficient with high rate enhancements (up to kcat/kuncat?=?38,000) and multiple turnovers compared to the bulk reaction mixture. Control experiments and molecular simulations suggest that the acceleration is attributed to inherent strength of binding affinity for reactants and the release of products to establish catalytic turnover is due to the host-guest geometry discrepancy.

Selective Separation of Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons by Phase Transfer of Coordination Cages.

Project description:Here we report a new supramolecular strategy for the selective separation of specific polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from mixtures. The use of a triethylene glycol-functionalized formylpyridine subcomponent allowed the construction of an FeII4L4 tetrahedron 1 that was capable of transferring between water and nitromethane layers, driven by anion metathesis. Cage 1 selectively encapsulated coronene from among a mixture of eight different types of PAHs in nitromethane, bringing it into a new nitromethane phase by transiting through an intermediate water phase. The bound coronene was released from 1 upon addition of benzene, and both the cage and the purified coronene could be separated via further phase separation.
