Post-Synthetic Modification Unlocks a 2D-to-3D Switch in MOF Breathing Response: A Single-Crystal-Diffraction Mapping Study.

ABSTRACT: Post-synthetic modification (PSM) of the interpenetrated diamondoid metal-organic framework (Me₂ NH₂ )[In(BDC-NH₂ )₂ ] (BDC-NH₂ =aminobenzenedicarboxylate) SHF-61 proceeds quantitatively in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal manner to yield the acetamide derivative (Me₂ NH₂ )[In(BDC-NHC(O)Me)₂ ] SHF-62. Continuous breathing behaviour during activation/desolvation is retained upon PSM, but pore closing now leads to ring-flipping to avert steric clash of amide methyl groups of the modified ligands. This triggers a reduction in the amplitude of the breathing deformation in the two dimensions associated with pore diameter, but a large increase in the third dimension associated with pore length. The MOF is thereby converted from predominantly 2D breathing (in SHF-61) to a distinctly 3D breathing motion (in SHF-62) indicating a decoupling of the pore-width and pore-length breathing motions. These breathing motions have been mapped by a series of single-crystal diffraction studies.

Competitive formation between 2D and 3D metal-organic frameworks: insights into the selective formation and lamination of a 2D MOF.

Project description:The structural dimension of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is of great importance in defining their properties and thus applications. In particular, 2D layered MOFs are of considerable interest because of their useful applications, which are facilitated by unique structural features of 2D materials, such as a large number of open active sites and high surface areas. Herein, this work demonstrates a methodology for the selective synthesis of a 2D layered MOF in the presence of the competitive formation of a 3D MOF. The ratio of the reactants, metal ions and organic building blocks used during the reaction is found to be critical for the selective formation of a 2D MOF, and is associated with its chemical composition. In addition, the well defined and uniform micro-sized 2D MOF particles are successfully synthesized in the presence of an ultrasonic dispersion. Moreover, the laminated 2D MOF layers are directly synthesized via a modified bottom-up lamination method, a combination of chemical and physical stimuli, in the presence of surfactant and ultrasonication.

A lipid switch unlocks Parkinson's disease-associated ATP13A2.

Project description:ATP13A2 is a lysosomal P-type transport ATPase that has been implicated in Kufor-Rakeb syndrome and Parkinson's disease (PD), providing protection against ?-synuclein, Mn(2+), and Zn(2+) toxicity in various model systems. So far, the molecular function and regulation of ATP13A2 remains undetermined. Here, we demonstrate that ATP13A2 contains a unique N-terminal hydrophobic extension that lies on the cytosolic membrane surface of the lysosome, where it interacts with the lysosomal signaling lipids phosphatidic acid (PA) and phosphatidylinositol(3,5)bisphosphate [PI(3,5)P2]. We further demonstrate that ATP13A2 accumulates in an inactive autophosphorylated state and that PA and PI(3,5)P2 stimulate the autophosphorylation of ATP13A2. In a cellular model of PD, only catalytically active ATP13A2 offers cellular protection against rotenone-induced mitochondrial stress, which relies on the availability of PA and PI(3,5)P2. Thus, the N-terminal binding of PA and PI(3,5)P2 emerges as a key to unlock the activity of ATP13A2, which may offer a therapeutic strategy to activate ATP13A2 and thereby reduce ?-synuclein toxicity or mitochondrial stress in PD or related disorders.

Polymorph evolution during crystal growth studied by 3D electron diffraction.

Project description:3D electron diffraction (3DED) has been used to follow polymorph evolution in the crystallization of glycine from aqueous solution. The three polymorphs of glycine which exist under ambient conditions follow the stability order ? < ? < ?. The least stable ? polymorph forms within the first 3?min, but this begins to yield the ?-form after only 1?min more. Both structures could be determined from continuous rotation electron diffraction data collected in less than 20?s on crystals of thickness ?100?nm. Even though the ?-form is thermodynamically the most stable polymorph, kinetics favour the ?-form, which dominates after prolonged standing. In the same sample, some ? and one crystallite of the ? polymorph were also observed.

Crystal structure of copper perchlorophthalocyanine analysed by 3D electron diffraction

Project description:The structure of copper perchlorophthalocyanine (CuC32N8Cl16, Pigment Green 7) was solved from three-dimensional electron diffraction data (3D ED) and placed into the series of known copper phthalocyanine crystal structures. Copper perchlorophthalocyanine (CuPcCl16, CuC32N8Cl16, Pigment Green 7) is one of the commercially most important green pigments. The compound is a nanocrystalline fully insoluble powder. Its crystal structure was first addressed by electron diffraction in 1972 [Uyeda et al. (1972). J. Appl. Phys.43, 5181–5189]. Despite the commercial importance of the compound, the crystal structure remained undetermined until now. Using a special vacuum sublimation technique, micron-sized crystals could be obtained. Three-dimensional electron diffraction (3D ED) data were collected in two ways: (i) in static geometry using a combined stage-tilt/beam-tilt collection scheme and (ii) in continuous rotation mode. Both types of data allowed the crystal structure to be solved by direct methods. The structure was refined kinematically with anisotropic displacement parameters for all atoms. Due to the pronounced crystal mosaicity, a dynamic refinement was not feasible. The unit-cell parameters were verified by Rietveld refinement from powder X-ray diffraction data. The crystal structure was validated by many-body dispersion density functional theory (DFT) calculations. CuPcCl16 crystallizes in the space group C2/m (Z = 2), with the molecules arranged in layers. The structure agrees with that proposed in 1972.

Synthesis of Chiral MOF-74 Frameworks by Post-Synthetic Modification by Using an Amino Acid.

Project description:The synthesis of chiral metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is highly relevant for asymmetric heterogenous catalysis, yet very challenging. Chiral MOFs with MOF-74 topology were synthesised by using post-synthetic modification with proline. Vibrational circular dichroism studies demonstrate that proline is the source of chirality. The solvents used in the synthesis play a key role in tuning the loading of proline and its interaction with the MOF-74 framework. In N,N'-dimethylformamide, proline coordinates monodentate to the Zn2+ ions within the MOF-74 framework, whereas it is only weakly bound to the framework when using methanol as solvent. Introducing chirality within the MOF-74 framework also leads to the formation of defects, with both the organic linker and metal ions missing from the framework. The formation of defects combined with the coordination of DMF and proline within the framework leads to a pore blocking effect. This is confirmed by adsorption studies and testing of the chiral MOFs in the asymmetric aldol reaction between acetone and para-nitrobenzaldehyde.

Translating 2D Director Profile to 3D Topography in a Liquid Crystal Polymer.

Project description:Morphological properties of surfaces play a key role in natural and man-made objects. The development of robust methods to fabricate micro/nano surface structures has been a long pursuit. Herein, an approach based on molecular self-assembling of liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) is presented to directly translate 2D molecular director profiles obtained by a photoalignment procedure into 3D topographies, without involving further multi-step lithographic processes. The principle of surface deformation from a flat morphology into complex topographies is based on the coupling between electrostatic interactions and the anisotropic flow in LCPs. When activated by an electric field, the LCP melts and is driven by electrohydrodynamic instabilities to connect the electrode plates of a capacitor, inducing topographies governed by the director profile of the LCP. Upon switching off the electric field, the formed structures vitrify as the temperature decreases below the glass transition. When heated, the process is reversible as the formed topographies disappear. By pre-programming the molecular director a variety of structures could be made with increasing complexity. The height, pitch, and the aspect ratio of the textures are further regulated by the conditions of the applied electric field. The proposed approach will open new opportunities for optical and electrical applications.

Ternary MOF-Based Redox Active Sites Enabled 3D-on-2D Nanoarchitectured Battery-Type Electrodes for High-Energy-Density Supercapatteries.

Project description:Designing rationally combined metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with multifunctional nanogeometries is of significant research interest to enable the electrochemical properties in advanced energy storage devices. Herein, we explored a new class of binder-free dual-layered Ni-Co-Mn-based MOFs (NCM-based MOFs) with three-dimensional (3D)-on-2D nanoarchitectures through a polarity-induced solution-phase method for high-performance supercapatteries. The hierarchical NCM-based MOFs having grown on nickel foam exhibit a battery-type charge storage mechanism with superior areal capacity (1311.4 μAh cm-2 at 5 mA cm-2), good rate capability (61.8%; 811.67 μAh cm-2 at 50 mA cm-2), and an excellent cycling durability. The superior charge storage properties are ascribed to the synergistic features, higher accessible active sites of dual-layered nanogeometries, and exalted redox chemistry of multi metallic guest species, respectively. The bilayered NCM-based MOFs are further employed as a battery-type electrode for the fabrication of supercapattery paradigm with biomass-derived nitrogen/oxygen doped porous carbon as a negative electrode, which demonstrates excellent capacity of 1.6 mAh cm-2 along with high energy and power densities of 1.21 mWh cm-2 and 32.49 mW cm-2, respectively. Following, the MOF-based supercapattery was further assembled with a renewable solar power harvester to use as a self-charging station for various portable electronic applications.

Synthesis of a 2D phosphorus material in a MOF-based 2D nano-reactor.

Project description:Synthesis of two dimensional (2D) materials mainly relies on interface-templates, exfoliation of layered crystals and surfactant-assistance. Here we have realized another strategy of polymerization in a 2D nano-reactor. As an application of this strategy, a 2D nano-reactor was constructed within a new pillar-layer metal organic framework (MOF) and in this nano-reactor a moderately stable 2D phosphorus material was synthesized from white phosphorus (P4). Our research may provide a new approach for the synthesis of various 2D materials.
