A mesoporous ionic solid with 272 Au^I ₆Ag^I ₃Cu^II ₃ complex cations in a super huge crystal lattice.

ABSTRACT: Here, we report a unique mesoporous ionic solid (I) generated from a cationic Au^I ₆Ag^I ₃Cu^II ₃ dodecanuclear complex with d-penicillamine depending on the homochirality and crystallization conditions. I crystallizes in the cubic space group of F4₁32 with an extremely large cell volume of 2 171 340 Å³, containing 272 Au^I ₆Ag^I ₃Cu^II ₃ complex cations in the unit cell. In I, the complex cations are connected to each other through CH⋯π interactions in a zeotype framework, the topology of which is the same as that of the metal-organic framework in MIL-101, with similar but much larger two types of polyhedral pores with internal diameters of 38.2 Å and 49.7 Å, which are occupied by counter-anions and water molecules. Due to the cationic nature of the framework, I undergoes quick, specific exchanges of counter-anions while retaining its single crystallinity. This study realized the creation of a non-covalent mesoporous framework from a single complex salt, providing a conceptual advance in solid chemistry and material science.

Chemical Bonding in Homoleptic Carbonyl Cations [M{Fe(CO)5 }2 ]+ (M=Cu, Ag, Au).

Project description:Syntheses of the copper and gold complexes [Cu{Fe(CO)5 }2 ][SbF6 ] and [Au{Fe(CO)5 }2 ][HOB{3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 }3 ] containing the homoleptic carbonyl cations [M{Fe(CO)5 }2 ]+ (M=Cu, Au) are reported. Structural data of the rare, trimetallic Cu2 Fe, Ag2 Fe and Au2 Fe complexes [Cu{Fe(CO)5 }2 ][SbF6 ], [Ag{Fe(CO)5 }2 ][SbF6 ] and [Au{Fe(CO)5 }2 ][HOB{3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 }3 ] are also given. The silver and gold cations [M{Fe(CO)5 }2 ]+ (M=Ag, Au) possess a nearly linear Fe-M-Fe' moiety but the Fe-Cu-Fe' in [Cu{Fe(CO)5 }2 ][SbF6 ] exhibits a significant bending angle of 147° due to the strong interaction with the [SbF6 ]- anion. The Fe(CO)5 ligands adopt a distorted square-pyramidal geometry in the cations [M{Fe(CO)5 }2 ]+ , with the basal CO groups inclined towards M. The geometry optimization with DFT methods of the cations [M{Fe(CO)5 }2 ]+ (M=Cu, Ag, Au) gives equilibrium structures with linear Fe-M-Fe' fragments and D2 symmetry for the copper and silver cations and D4d symmetry for the gold cation. There is nearly free rotation of the Fe(CO)5 ligands around the Fe-M-Fe' axis. The calculated bond dissociation energies for the loss of both Fe(CO)5 ligands from the cations [M{Fe(CO)5 }2 ]+ show the order M=Au (De =137.2 kcal mol-1 )>Cu (De =109.0 kcal mol-1 )>Ag (De =92.4 kcal mol-1 ). The QTAIM analysis shows bond paths and bond critical points for the M-Fe linkage but not between M and the CO ligands. The EDA-NOCV calculations suggest that the [Fe(CO)5 ]→M+ ←[Fe(CO)5 ] donation is significantly stronger than the [Fe(CO)5 ]←M+ →[Fe(CO)5 ] backdonation. Inspection of the pairwise orbital interactions identifies four contributions for the charge donation of the Fe(CO)5 ligands into the vacant (n)s and (n)p AOs of M+ and five components for the backdonation from the occupied (n-1)d AOs of M+ into vacant ligand orbitals.

Taming Super-Reduced Bi23- Radicals with Rare Earth Cations.

Project description:Here, we report the synthesis of two new sets of dibismuth-bridged rare earth molecules. The first series contains a bridging diamagnetic Bi22- anion, (Cp*2RE)2(μ-η2:η2-Bi2), 1-RE (where Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl; RE = Gd (1-Gd), Tb (1-Tb), Dy (1-Dy), Y (1-Y)), while the second series comprises the first Bi23- radical-containing complexes for any d- or f-block metal ions, [K(crypt-222)][(Cp*2RE)2(μ-η2:η2-Bi2•)]·2THF (2-RE, RE = Gd (2-Gd), Tb (2-Tb), Dy (2-Dy), Y (2-Y); crypt-222 = 2.2.2-cryptand), which were obtained from one-electron reduction of 1-RE with KC8. The Bi23- radical-bridged terbium and dysprosium congeners, 2-Tb and 2-Dy, are single-molecule magnets with magnetic hysteresis. We investigate the nature of the unprecedented lanthanide-bismuth and bismuth-bismuth bonding and their roles in magnetic communication between paramagnetic metal centers, through single-crystal X-ray diffraction, ultraviolet-visible/near-infrared (UV-vis/NIR) spectroscopy, SQUID magnetometry, DFT and multiconfigurational ab initio calculations. We find a πz* ground SOMO for Bi23-, which has isotropic spin-spin exchange coupling with neighboring metal ions of ca. -20 cm-1; however, the exchange coupling is strongly augmented by orbitally dependent terms in the anisotropic cases of 2-Tb and 2-Dy. As the first examples of p-block radicals beneath the second row bridging any metal ions, these studies have important ramifications for single-molecule magnetism, main group element, rare earth metal, and coordination chemistry at large.

Mechanistic insights into Ag+ induced size-growth from [Au6(DPPP)4]2+ to [Au7(DPPP)4]2+ clusters.

Project description:The size conversion of atomically precise metal nanoclusters lays the foundation to elucidate the inherent structure-activity correlations on the nanometer scale. Herein, the mechanism of the Ag+-induced size growth from [Au6(dppp)4]2+ to [Au7(dppp)4]3+ (dppp is short for 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane) is studied via density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In the absence of extra Au sources, the one "Au+" addition was found to be regulated by the Ag+ doping induced Au-activation, i.e., the formation of formal Au(i) blocks via the Ag+ alloying processes. The Au(i) blocks could be extruded from the core structure in the formed Au-Ag alloy clusters, triggering a facile Au+ migration to the Au6 precursor to form the Au7 product. This study sheds light on the structural and stability changes of gold nanoclusters upon the addition of Ag+ and will hopefully benefit the development of more metal ion-induced size-conversion of metal nanoclusters.

Synthesis of Trimetallic (HPd@M2Au8)3+ Superatoms (M = Ag, Cu) via Hydride-Mediated Regioselective Doping to (Pd@Au8)2.

Project description:We have recently reported that hydride (H-) doped superatom (HPd@Au8)+ protected by eight PPh3 ligands selectively grew into (HPd@Au10)3+ by the nucleophilic addition of two Au(I)Cl units. In the present study, (HPd@Au8)+ was successfully converted to unprecedented trimetallic (HPd@M2Au8)3+ superatoms (M = Ag, Cu) by controlled doping of two Ag(I)Cl or Cu(I)Cl units, respectively. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated that two Ag(I) or Cu(I) ions were regioselectively incorporated. Theoretical calculations suggested that hydrogens in (HPd@M2Au8)3+ (M = Au, Ag, Cu) occupy the same bridging site between the central Pd atom and the surface Au atom. (HPd@Ag2Au8)3+ exhibited photoluminescence at 775 nm, with the enhanced quantum yield of 0.09%, although it is structurally and electronically equivalent with (HPd@Au10)3+. This study demonstrates that hydride-mediated growth process is a promising atomically-precise bottom-up synthetic method of new multimetallic superatoms.

Evolution from superatomic Au24Ag20 monomers into molecular-like Au43Ag38 dimeric nanoclusters.

Project description:Hierarchical assembly of nanoparticles has been attracting wide interest, as advanced functionalities can be achieved. However, the ability to manipulate structural evolution of artificial nanoparticles into assemblies with atomic precision has been largely unsuccessful. Here we report the evolution from monomeric Au24Au20 into dimeric Au43Ag38 nanoclusters: Au43Ag38 inherits the kernel frameworks from parent Au24Ag20 but exhibits distinct surface motifs; Au24Ag20 is racemic, while Au43Ag38 is mesomeric. Importantly, the evolution from monomers to dimers opens up exciting opportunities exploring currently unknown properties of monomeric and dimeric alloy nanoclusters. The Au24Ag20 clusters show superatomic electronic configurations, while Au43Ag38 clusters have molecular-like characteristics. Furthermore, monomeric Au24Ag20 catalysts readily outperform dimeric Au43Ag38 catalysts in the catalytic reduction of CO2.

Ag2Mo2O7: an oxide solid-state Ag+ electrolyte.

Project description:Ag2Mo2O7 powders and micro-crystals were prepared at 400 °C for 24 h and 500 °C for 6 h using solid-state reactions. The Ag2Mo2O7 samples crystalized in a triclinic P1̄ space group with the cell parameters a = 6.0972(1) Å, b = 7.5073(1) Å, c = 7.6779(2) Å, α = 110.43(1)°, β = 93.17(1)°, γ = 113.51(1)°, and V = 294.17(1) Å3 from Rietveld refinements.

According to DOS analyses, the valence bands (VB) of Ag2Mo2O7 are mainly constituted of O-2p and Ag-4d orbitals, while the conduction bands (CB) are mainly composed of Mo-4d and the O-2p orbitals. Regarding the impedance analysis, Ag2Mo2O7 is a silver oxide ion electrolyte with a conductivity of ∼5 × 10-4 S cm-1 at 450 °C. The carrier activation energy of Ag2Mo2O7 is 0.88(3) eV from the temperature dependent conductivity measurements.

Large Scale Solid-state Synthesis of Catalytically Active Fe3O4@M (M = Au, Ag and Au-Ag alloy) Core-shell Nanostructures.

Project description:Solvent-less synthesis of nanostructures is highly significant due to its economical, eco-friendly and industrially viable nature. Here we report a solid state synthetic approach for the fabrication of Fe3O4@M (where M?=?Au, Ag and Au-Ag alloy) core-shell nanostructures in nearly quantitative yields that involves a simple physical grinding of a metal precursor over Fe3O4 core, followed by calcination. The process involves smooth coating of low melting hybrid organic-inorganic precursor over the Fe3O4 core, which in turn facilitates a continuous shell layer post thermolysis. The obtained core-shell nanostructures are characterized using, XRD, XPS, ED-XRF, FE-SEM and HR-TEM for their phase, chemical state, elemental composition, surface morphology, and shell thickness, respectively. Homogeneous and continuous coating of the metal shell layer over a large area of the sample is ascertained by SAXS and STEM analyses. The synthesized catalysts have been studied for their applicability towards a model catalytic hydrogen generation from NH3BH3 and NaBH4 as hydrogen sources. The catalytic efficacy of the Fe3O4@Ag and Ag rich alloy shell materials are found to be superior to the corresponding Au counterparts. The saturation magnetization studies reveal the potential of the core-shell nanostructured catalysts to be magnetically recoverable and recyclable.

Homoatomic cations: From [P5]+ to [P9].

Project description:Recent synthetic approaches to a series of [P9]X salts (X = [F{Al(ORF)3}2], [Al(ORF)4], and (RF = C(CF3)3); Ga2Cl7) overcome limitations in classical synthesis methods that proved unsuitable for phosphorus cations. These salts contain the homopolyatomic cation [P9]+ via (I) oxidation of P4 with NO[F{Al(ORF)3}2], (II) the arene-stabilized Co(I) sandwich complex [Co(arene)2][Al(ORF)4] [arene = ortho-difluorobenzene (o-DFB) and fluorobenzene (FB)], or (III) the reduction of [P5Cl2][Ga2Cl7] with Ga[Ga2Cl7] as Ga(I) source in the presence of P4. Quantum chemical CCSD(T) calculations suggest that [P9]+ formation from [Co(arene)2]+ occurs via the nido-type cluster [(o-DFB)CoP4]+, which resembles the isoelectronic, elusive [P5]+. Apparently, the nido-cation [P5]+ forms intermediately in all reactions, particularly during the Ga(I)-induced reduction of [P5Cl2]+ and the subsequent pick up of P4 to yield the final salt [P9][Ga2Cl7]. The solid-state structure of [P9][Ga2Cl7] reveals the anticipated D2d-symmetric Zintl-type cage for the [P9]+ cation. Our approaches show great potential to bring other [Pn]+ cations from the gas to the condensed phase.

Butterfly-shaped magnetoresistance in triangular-lattice antiferromagnet Ag2CrO2.

Project description:Spintronic devices using antiferromagnets (AFMs) are promising candidates for future applications. Recently, many interesting physical properties have been reported with AFM-based devices. Here we report a butterfly-shaped magnetoresistance (MR) in a micrometer-sized triangular-lattice antiferromagnet Ag2CrO2. The material consists of two-dimensional triangular-lattice CrO2 layers with antiferromagnetically coupled S = 3/2 spins and Ag2 layers with high electrical conductivity. The butterfly-shaped MR appears only when the magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the CrO2 plane with the maximum MR ratio (≈15%) at the magnetic ordering temperature. These features are distinct from those observed in conventional magnetic materials. We propose a theoretical model where fluctuations of partially disordered spins with the Ising anisotropy play an essential role in the butterfly-shaped MR in Ag2CrO2.

N-type thermoelectric Ag8SnSe6 with extremely low lattice thermal conductivity by replacing Ag with Cu.

Project description:Argyrodite family compounds inherently possess low lattice thermal conductivity (κ L) due to the liquid-like behavior of cations and the intimate interplay among mobile ions. Hence, they have become the focus of discussion in thermoelectrics recently. However, the major bottleneck for further improvement of their thermoelectric (TE) performance is their low carrier concentration. In this work, we take an advantage of the unique structure of Ag8SnSe6, in an attempt to further reduce the lattice part (κ L) while at the same time improve their electrical property. The results show that the κ L value reduces from 0.17 W K-1 m-1 to 0.12 W K-1 m-1 when Ag is substituted for Cu through induced point defects and lattice distortion and that the power factor (PF) increases from 4.1 μW cm-1 K-2 to 4.4 μW cm-1 K-2 at 645 K after enhancing the Seebeck coefficients. Finally, the maximum ZT value of ∼0.85 is attainted for Ag7.95Cu0.05SnSe6 at 645 K, an increase by a factor of 1.3 compared to that of the pristine Ag8SnSe6. This result demonstrates that the replacement of Ag by Cu in Ag8SnSe6 is an effective way to improve its TE performance.
