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.

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.

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.

Dinuclear Metal-Mediated Homo Base Pairs with Metallophilic Interactions: Theoretical Studies of G2M22+ (M?=?Cu, Ag, and Au) Ions.

Project description:Dinuclear metal-mediated homo base pairs are interesting clusters with highly symmetric structures and significant stabilities. The geometric and electronic structures of G2M22+ (G?=?Guanine, M?=?Cu, Ag or Au) cluster ions were studied with quantum chemical calculations. The lowest-energy isomers of G2M22+ cluster ions have C2h symmetries with an approximately antiparallel alignment of two sets of N-M???O groups being formed in the planar structures. The M-M distances are shorter than the sum of van der Waals radii of corresponding two homo coinage metal atoms, showing that metallophilic interactions significantly exist in these complexes. They have the large HOMO-LUMO gaps of about 5.80?eV at the DFT level and the bond dissociation energies of more than 5.60?eV at the DFT/B3LYP level, indicating that these cluster dications are highly stable. The second lowest-energy isomers stabilized by an approximately parallel alignment of one set of O-M-O group and one set of N-M-N group are found to be close to the lowest-energy isomers in energy. The barrier between the two isomers of G2M22+ cluster ions is significantly large, also showing that these lowest-energy isomers are very stable.

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.

Interdependence between nanoclusters AuAg24 and Au2Ag41.

Project description:Whole series of nanoparticles have now been reported, but probing the competing or coexisting effects in their synthesis and growth remains challenging. Here, we report a bi-nanocluster system comprising two ultra-small, atomically precise nanoclusters, AuAg24(SR)18- and Au2Ag41(SR)26(Dppm)2+ (SR = cyclohexyl mercaptan, Dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)-methane). The mechanism by which these two nanoclusters coexist is elucidated, and found to entail formation of the unstable AuAg24(SR)18-, followed by its partial conversion to Au2Ag41(SR)26(Dppm)2+ in the presence of di-phosphorus ligands, and an interdependent bi-nanocluster system is established, wherein the two oppositely charged nanoclusters protect each other from decomposition. AuAg24(SR)18 and Au2Ag41(SR)26(Dppm)2 are fully characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) analysis - it is found that their co-crystallization results in single crystals comprising equimolar amounts of each. The findings highlight the interdependent relationship between two individual nanoclusters, which paves the way for new perspectives on nanocluster formation and stability.

Selective Anion Binding Drives the Formation of AgI8L6 and AgI12L6 Six-Stranded Helicates.

Project description:Here we describe the formation of an unexpected and unique family of hollow six-stranded helicates. The formation of these structures depends on the coordinative flexibility of silver and the 2-formyl-1,8-napthyridine subcomponent. Crystal structures show that these assemblies are held together by Ag4I, Ag4Br, or Ag6(SO4)2 clusters, where the templating anion plays an integral structure-defining role. Prior to the addition of the anionic template, no six-stranded helicate was observed to form, with the system instead consisting of a dynamic mixture of triple helicate and tetrahedron. Six-stranded helicate formation was highly sensitive to the structure of the ligand, with minor modifications inhibiting its formation. This work provides an unusual example of mutual stabilization between metal clusters and a self-assembled metal-organic cage. The selective preparation of this anisotropic host demonstrates new modes of guiding selective self-assembly using silver(I), whose many stable coordination geometries render design difficult.

Synthesizing Ag+: MgS, Ag+: Nb2S5, Sm3+: Y2S3, Sm3+:Er2S3, and Sm3+:ZrS2 Compound Nanoparticles for Multicolor Fluorescence Imaging of Biotissues.

Project description:Development of the fluorophores whose fluorescence bands can be flexibly selected is of great interest for biotissue imaging. Compounds of Ag+:MgS, Ag+:Nb2S5, Sm3+:Y2S3, Sm3+:Er2S3, and Sm3+:ZrS2 were obtained through new chemical synthesis. They were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. They revealed polychromatic-photoluminescence spectra when excited by 280, 380, 480, 580, 680, and 785 nm light. Especially, near-infrared emission ranging from 800-1100 nm was found upon 785 nm light excitation. A band model was proposed to explain transitions responsible for the observed components of emission. Their broad fluorescence spectra cover from the ultraviolet to near-infrared spectral range. Their ability of emitting wide-range fluorescence was utilized for multicolor fluorescence imaging of biotissues, as demonstrated by pig-kidney tissue samples.

Density Functional Theory Studies of the Electronic Structure and Muon Hyperfine Interaction in [Au25(SR)18]0 and [Au25(SeR)18]0 Nanoclusters.

Project description:Density functional theory computational investigation was performed to study the electronic structures, muon sites, and the associated hyperfine interactions in [Au25(SR)18]0 and [Au25(SeR)18]0 where R is phenylethane. The calculated electronic structures show inhomogeneous spin density distribution and are also affected by different ligands. The two most stable muon sites near Au atoms in the thiolated system are MAu11 and MAu6. When the thiolate ligands were replaced by selenolate ligands, the lowest energy positions of muons moved to MAu6 and MAu5. Muons prefer to stop inside the Au12 icosahedral shell, away from the central Au and the staple motifs region. Muonium states at phenyl ring and S/Se atoms in the ligand were found to be stable and the Fermi contact fields are much larger as compared to the field experienced by muons near Au atoms.

Targeted and Enhanced Antimicrobial Inhibition of Mesoporous ZnO-Ag2O/Ag, ZnO-CuO, and ZnO-SnO2 Composite Nanoparticles.

Project description:In this work, mesoporous (pore size below 4 nm) composite nanoparticles of ZnO-Ag2O/Ag, ZnO-CuO, and ZnO-SnO2 of size d ≤ 10 nm (dia.) have been synthesized through the in situ solvochemical reduction method using NaBH4. These composite nanoparticles exhibited excellent killing efficacy against Gram-positive/negative bacterial and fungal strains even at a very low dose of 0.010 μg/mL. Additionally, by applying the in silico docking approach, the nanoparticles and microorganism-specific targeted proteins and their interactions have been identified to explain the best anti-bacterial/anti-fungal activities of these composites. For this purpose, the virulence and resistance causing target proteins such as PqsR, RstA, FosA, and Hsp90 of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Candida albicans have been identified to find out the best inhibitory action mechanisms involved. From the in vitro study, it is revealed that all the composite nanoparticle types used here can act as potent antimicrobial components. All the composite nanoparticles have exhibited excellent inhibition against the microorganisms compared to their constituent single metal or metal oxide nanoparticles. Among the nanoparticle types, the ZnO-Ag2O/Ag composite nanoparticles exhibited the best inhibition activity compared to the other reported nanoparticles. The microorganisms which are associated with severe infections lead to the multidrug resistance and have become a huge concern in the healthcare sector. Conventional organic antibiotics are less stable at a higher temperature. Therefore, based on the current demands, this work has been focused on designing inorganic antibiotics which possess stability even under harsh conditions. In this direction, our developed composite nanoparticles were explored for potential uses in the healthcare technology, and they may solve many problems in global emergency and epidemics caused by the microorganisms.
