DFT data to relate calculated LUMO energy with experimental reduction potentials of Cu(II)-β-diketonato complexes.

ABSTRACT: We present data on the computed lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (E_LUMO ) of two series of Cu(II)-β-diketonato complexes, calculated via density functional theory (DFT). These are correlated to experimental reduction potential data (E _pc), obtained by cyclic voltammetry under different experimental conditions (solvent, working and reference electrodes). All calculations were done with the B3LYP functional in the gas phase. Knowledge of the influence of different ligands on the redox potential of copper complexes, as measured by DFT calculated energy data, are very useful. These theoretical correlations are vital in the further design of similar compounds, to be customized for specific applications. The correlations can be used to predict and fine-tune redox potentials prior to synthesis, saving experimental chemists time and laboratory expenses. Redox potentials influence the catalytic property of bis(β-diketonato)copper(II) compounds. New catalysts can therefore be customized with a specific reduction potential and catalytic activity. Further, the Cu(II/I) redox couple is a potential alternative as electrolyte for dye-sensitized solar cells [1], [2], [3]. The redox potential of the electrolyte can drastically affect the photovoltage output and should therefore be optimized for efficiency and durability. By adjusting the reduction potential via different ligands on the complex, the properties of copper dyes can be fine-tuned at molecular level. For more insight into the reported data, see the related research article "Synthesis, Characterization, DFT and Biological Activity of Oligothiophene β-diketone and Cu-complexes" published in Polyhedron [4].

Electron, phonon and thermoelectric properties of Cu<sub>7</sub>PS<sub>6</sub> crystal calculated at DFT level.

Project description:The promising class of the environment-friendly thermoelectrics is the copper-based argyrodite-type ion-conducting crystals exhibiting just extraordinary low thermal conductivity below the glass limit associated with the molten copper sublattice leading to a softening of phonon modes. To explain why the argyrodite structure containing copper ions favors the low thermal conductivity, we have utilized the ab initio calculations of the electron, phonon, and thermoelectric properties of Cu7PS6 crystal in the framework of the density functional and Boltzmann transport theories. To obtain the reliable thermoelectric properties of Cu7PS6, we take into account the dependence of the electron effective mass m* on the redundant carrier concentration n. We propose to use the Burstein-Moss effect for the calculation of the electron effective mass m* of a semiconductor. We have found the strong nonlinear character of copper atom vibrations in Cu7PS6 which exceeds substantially the similar values for phosphorous and sulfur atoms. The large vibration nonlinearity of the copper atoms found in Cu7PS6 explains the diffusion-like heat transfer and the relatively low coefficient of the lattice thermal conductivity (κ = 0.7 W/(m K)), which is favorable to achieve the large thermoelectric figure of merit.

How do potentials derived from structural databases relate to "true" potentials?

Project description:Knowledge-based potentials are used widely in protein folding and inverse folding algorithms. Two kinds of derivation methods are used. (1) The interactions in a database of known protein structures are assumed to obey a Boltzmann distribution. (2) The stability of the native folds relative to a manifold of misfolded structures is optimized. Here, a set of previously derived contact and secondary structure propensity potentials, taken as the "true" potentials, are employed to construct an artificial protein structural database from protein fragments. Then, new sets of potentials are derived to see how they are related to the true potentials. Using the Boltzmann distribution method, when the stability of the structures in the database lies within a certain range, both contact potentials and secondary structure propensities can be derived separately with remarkable accuracy. In general, the optimization method was found to be less accurate due to errors in the "excess energy" contribution. When the excess energy terms are kept as a constraint, the true potentials are recovered exactly.

Reduction potentials of heterometallic manganese-oxido cubane complexes modulated by redox-inactive metals.

Project description:Understanding the effect of redox-inactive metals on the properties of biological and heterogeneous water oxidation catalysts is important both fundamentally and for improvement of future catalyst designs. In this work, heterometallic manganese-oxido cubane clusters [MMn3O4] (M = Sr(2+), Zn(2+), Sc(3+), Y(3+)) structurally relevant to the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II were prepared and characterized. The reduction potentials of these clusters and other related mixed metal manganese-tetraoxido complexes are correlated with the Lewis acidity of the apical redox-inactive metal in a manner similar to a related series of heterometallic manganese-dioxido clusters. The redox potentials of the [SrMn3O4] and [CaMn3O4] clusters are close, which is consistent with the observation that the OEC is functional only with one of these two metals. Considering our previous studies of [MMn3O2] moieties, the present results with more structurally accurate models of the OEC ([MMn3O4]) suggest a general relationship between the reduction potentials of heterometallic oxido clusters and the Lewis acidities of incorporated cations that applies to diverse structural motifs. These findings support proposals that one function of calcium in the OEC is to modulate the reduction potential of the cluster to allow electron transfer.

Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction Using Various Heteroleptic Diimine-Diphosphine Cu(I) Complexes as Photosensitizers.

Project description:The development of efficient redox-photosensitizers based on the earth-abundant metal ions as an alternative toward noble- and/or rare-metal based photosensitizers is very desirable. In recent years, heteroleptic diimine-diphosphine Cu(I) complexes have been well investigated as one of the most remarkable candidates because of their great potentials as efficient photosensitizers. Here, we investigated the effects of the structure of the diphosphine ligands on the photosensitizing abilities using a series of Cu(I) complexes bearing 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (dmpp) and various diphosphine ligands in order to explore the suitable structure for the photosensitizing reactions. The number of methylene chains between the two phosphorous atoms in the diphosphine ligands was systematically changed from two to four, and the relationship between the length of the carbon chains and the photosensitizing abilities were investigated by conducting photocatalytic CO2 reduction with the Cu(I) complexes as photosensitizers. Turnover frequencies of the CO2 reduction drastically increased with increasing the length of the carbon chains. The systematic study herein reported suggests that the large P-Cu-P angles should be one of the most important factors for enhancing the photosensitizing abilities.

Gibbs energy functions with the vacancy complexes in the Al-Cu binary system.

Project description:The Gibbs energy functions of the phases in the Al-Cu binary system are taken from the CALPHAD-type thermodynamic assessment (Witusiewicz et al., 2004; Ansara et al., 1998) [1], [2], where the effect of the monovacancy (Va), divacancy (VaVa) and Va-solute atom pair are taken into account based on the formulation (Abe et al., In press). The divacancy is modeled as an associate, VaVa, in the FCC solid solution. The contributions from the Va-solute pair are included through the ternary excess Gibbs energy term. Using the Gibbs energy functions provided in this data article, the fractions of the monovacancies and divacancies, even in various metastable conditions, can be calculated. Since the Gibbs energy functions and phase descriptions are written in the TDB (Thermodynamic DataBase) format, one can use this file with various thermodynamic software packages, such as OpenCalphad [3] etc.

Synthesis and Crystal Structures of New Strontium Complexes with Aminoalkoxy and β-Diketonato Ligands.

Project description:New heteroleptic strontium complexes were synthesized using substitution reaction of bis(trimethylsilyl)amide of Sr(btsa)2·2DME with aminoalkoxide and β-diketonate ligands. The complexes [Sr(bdmp)(btsa)]2·2THF (1), [Sr(bdeamp)(btsa)]2 (2), [Sr(dadamb)(btsa)]2 (3), [Sr(bdmp)(hfac)]3 (4), [Sr(bdeamp)(hfac)]3 (5), [Sr(dadamb)(hfac)]3 (6), and [Sr3(dadamb)4(tmhd)2] (7) were prepared and characterized by means of various analysis techniques such as Fourier transform infrared, NMR, thermogravimetric analysis, and elemental analysis. Complexes 1-3 were further structurally confirmed by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, and they displayed dimeric structures in which strontium atoms were connected by alkoxide oxygen atoms of the μ2 type. Compound 1 has a trigonal prismatic structure, whereas 2 and 3 have a distorted square pyramidal structure. In complexes 5-7, trimeric structures were obtained with strontium atoms connected by μ3-O bonds of alkoxide oxygen atoms and μ2-O bonds of alkoxide and β-diketonate oxygen atoms. The crystal structures of 5, 6, and 7 showed distorted capped octahedral geometry, while 7 (middle Sr atom) displayed a distorted trigonal prism geometry. Complexes 5-7 displayed ∼70% mass loss in the temperature range from 25 to 315 °C.

Co(ii), Ni(ii), Cu(ii) and Cd(ii)-thiocarbonohydrazone complexes: spectroscopic, DFT, thermal, and electrical conductivity studies.

Project description:New and stable coordinated compounds have been isolated in a good yield. The chelates have been prepared by mixing Co(ii), Ni(ii), Cu(ii), and Cd(ii) metal ions with (1E)-1-((6-methyl-4-oxo-4H-chromen-3-yl)methylene)thiocarbonohydrazide (MCMT) in 2 : 1 stoichiometry (MCMT : M2+). Various techniques, including elemental microanalyses, molar conductance, thermal studies, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, UV-Vis, and XRD spectral analyses, magnetic moment measurements, and electrical conductivity, were applied for the structural and spectroscopic elucidation of the coordinating compounds. Further, computational studies using the DFT-B3LYP method were reported for MCMT and its metal complexes. MCMT behaves as a neutral NS bidentate moiety that forms octahedral complexes with general formula [M(MCMT)2Cl(OH2)]Cl·XH2O (M = Cu2+; (X = ½), Ni2+, Co2+; (X = 1)); [Cd(MCMT)2Cl2]·½H2O. There is good confirmation between experimental infrared spectral data and theoretical DFT-B3LYP computational outcomes where MCMT acts as a five-membered chelate bonded to the metal ion through azomethine nitrogen and thiocarbonyl sulphur donors. The thermal analysis is studied to confirm the elucidated structure of the complexes. Also, the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the thermal decomposition steps were evaluated. The measured optical band gap values of the prepared compounds exhibited semiconducting nature. AC conductivity and dielectric properties of the ligand and its complexes were examined, which showed that Cu(ii) complex has the highest dielectric constant referring to its high polarization and storage ability.

Binding free energy of protein/ligand complexes calculated using dissociation Parallel Cascade Selection Molecular Dynamics and Markov state model.

Project description:We recently proposed a computational procedure to simulate the dissociation of protein/ligand complexes using the dissociation Parallel Cascade Selection Molecular Dynamics simulation (dPaCS-MD) method and to analyze the generated trajectories using the Markov state model (MSM). This procedure, called dPaCS-MD/MSM, enables calculation of the dissociation free energy profile and the standard binding free energy. To examine whether this method can reproduce experimentally determined binding free energies for a variety of systems, we used it to investigate the dissociation of three protein/ligand complexes: trypsin/benzamine, FKBP/FK506, and adenosine A2 A receptor/T4E. First, dPaCS-MD generated multiple dissociation pathways within a reasonable computational time for all the complexes, although the complexes differed significantly in the size of the molecules and in intermolecular interactions. Subsequent MSM analyses produced free energy profiles for the dissociations, which provided insights into how each ligand dissociates from the protein. The standard binding free energies obtained by dPaCS-MD/MSM are in good agreement with experimental values for all the complexes. We conclude that dPaCS-MD/MSM can accurately calculate the binding free energies of these complexes.

Synthesis and characterization of ruthenium bis(beta-diketonato) pyridine-imidazole complexes for hydrogen atom transfer.

Project description:Ruthenium bis(beta-diketonato) complexes have been prepared at both the RuII and RuIII oxidation levels and with protonated and deprotonated pyridine-imidazole ligands. RuII(acac)2(py-imH) (1), [RuIII(acac)2(py-imH)]OTf (2), RuIII(acac)2(py-im) (3), RuII(hfac)2(py-imH) (4), and [DBU-H][RuII(hfac)2(py-im)] (5) have been fully characterized, including X-ray crystal structures (acac = 2,4-pentanedionato, hfac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoro-2,4-pentanedionato, py-imH = 2-(2'-pyridyl)imidazole, DBU = 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene). For the acac-imidazole complexes 1 and 2, cyclic voltammetry in MeCN shows the RuIII/II reduction potential (E1/2) to be -0.64 V versus Cp2Fe+/0. E1/2 for the deprotonated imidazolate complex 3 (-1.00 V) is 0.36 V more negative. The RuII bis-hfac analogues 4 and 5 show the same DeltaE1/2 = 0.36 V but are 0.93 V harder to oxidize than the acac derivatives (0.29 and -0.07 V). The difference in acidity between the acac and hfac derivatives is much smaller, with pKa values of 22.1 and 19.3 in MeCN for 1 and 4, respectively. From the E1/2 and pKa values, the bond dissociation free energies (BDFEs) of the N-H bonds in 1 and 4 are calculated to be 62.0 and 79.6 kcal mol(-1) in MeCN - a remarkable difference of 17.6 kcal mol(-1) for such structurally similar compounds. Consistent with these values, there is a facile net hydrogen atom transfer from 1 to TEMPO* (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical) to give 3 and TEMPO-H. The DeltaG degrees for this reaction is -4.5 kcal mol(-1). 4 is not oxidized by TEMPO* (DeltaG degrees = +13.1 kcal mol(-1)), but in the reverse direction TEMPO-H readily reduces in situ generated RuIII(hfac)2(py-im) (6). A RuII-imidazoline analogue of 1, RuII(acac)2(py-imnH) (7), reacts with 3 equiv of TEMPO* to give the imidazolate 3 and TEMPO-H, with dehydrogenation of the imidazoline ring.
