A Step into the Future: Applications of Nanoparticle Enzyme Mimics.

2018

We describe elementary concepts, up-to-date developments, and perspectives of the emerging field of nanoparticle enzyme mimics (so-called "nanozymes") at the interface of chemistry, biology, materials, and nanotechnology. The design and synthesis of functional enzyme mimics is a long-standing goal of biomimetic chemistry. Metal complexes, polymers and engineered biomolecules capturing the structure of natural enzymes or their active centers have been made to achieve high rates and enhanced selectivities. Still, the design of new "artificial enzymes" that are not related to proteins but with capacity of production and stability at industrial level, remains a goal. Inorganic nanoparticles bea…

Mössbauer Spectroscopic Study and Magnetic Investigation of Iron(III) Complexes on a DendrimericBasis

2014

The functionalization of the molecular surface of various dendrimer generations with a phosphorous core and external amine groups is obtained by converting those amine groups into the corresponding imines of salicylaldehyde creating multiple coordination sites for the iron atoms. Treatment with iron(III) chloride yields multinuclear iron(III) complexes on a dendrimeric basis.The obtained multinuclear molecular systems exhibit extremely high total spin values. The influence of the generation growth on this type of coordination compounds is investigated by Mossbauer spectroscopy and SQUID magnetometry.

Iron(III) Complexes on a Dendrimeric Basis and Various Amine Core Investigated by Mössbauer Spectroscopy

2014

Dendrimers of various generations were synthesized by the divergent method. Starting from various amine cores (G0a, G0b, G0c) the generations were built by reaction of the amine with acrylnitrile followed by hydrogenation with DIBAL-H. Treatment with salicylaldehyde creates a fivefold coordination sphere for iron in the molecular periphery. The resulting multinuclear coordination compounds are investigated by Mossbauer spectroscopy.

Mononuclear coordination compounds based on a novel chelating triazole ligand: 1-vinyl-3-acetylamino-1,2,4-triazole

2002

The synthesis, X-ray structure, magnetic and spectroscopic properties of new Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes with 1-vinyl-3-acetylamino-1,2,4-triazole (vaat) are reported. The crystal structures of [Ni(vaat)2(H2O)2](NO3)2 and [Cu(vaat)2(H2O)2]Cl2 have been determined by X-ray diffraction. In these mononuclear complexes, the metal ion is surrounded by two water molecules in axial positions and two oxygen and two nitrogen (N4) atoms coming from two trans-oriented chelating vaat molecules. Anions are noncoordinated and are involved in a hydrogen bonding network. The complex cations of [Cu(vaat)2(H2O)2]Cl2 are aligned within chains. In the structure of [Ni(vaat)2(H2O)2](NO3)2 the nitrate an…

Two-dimensional assembling of 4,4'-bipyridine and 4,4'-azopyridine bridged iron(II) linear coordination polymers via hydrogen bond

1999

[EN] Novel two-dimensional polymers, [Fe(L-1)(H2O)(2)(NCX)(2)]. L-1 (L-1 =4.4'-bipyridine (bipy)) (1, 2) and [Fe(L-2)(CH3OH)(2)-(NCX)(2)]. L-2 (L-2 =4,4'-azopyridine (azpy)) (3) and X = S (1, 3), Se (2), have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography. The structures reveal the formation of tranzs-L-bridged [Fe(NCX)(2)(Y)(2)] where Y=H2O, CH3OH linear chains assembled into two-dimensional networks by hydrogen bonds between the uncoordinated ligand L and the coordinated solvent molecules.

Recognition of N-Alkyl- and N-Aryl-Acetamides by N-Alkyl Ammonium Resorcinarene Chlorides

2014

N-alkyl ammonium resorcinarene chlorides are stabilized by an intricate array of intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds that leads to cavitand-like structures. Depending on the upper-rim substituents, self-inclusion was observed in solution and in the solid state. The self-inclusion can be disrupted at higher temperatures, whereas in the presence of small guests the self-included dimers spontaneously reorganize to 1:1 host-guest complexes. These host compounds show an interesting ability to bind a series of N-alkyl acetamide guests through intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving the carbonyl oxygen (C=O) atoms and the amide (NH) groups of the guests, the chloride anions (Cl(-)) and ammoni…

Bridgehead isomer effects in bis(phosphido)-bridged diiron hexacarbonyl proton reduction electrocatalysts

2017

The influence of the substitution, orientation and structure of the phosphido bridges in [Fe2(CO)6(μ-PR2)2] electrocatalysts of proton reduction has been studied. The isomers e,a-[Fe2(CO)6{μ-P(Ar)H}2] (1a(Ar): Ar = Ph, 2′-methoxy-1,1′-binaphthyl (bn′)), e,e-[Fe2(CO)6{μ-P(Ar)H}2] (1b(Ar): Ar = Ph, bn′) were isolated from reactions of iron pentacarbonyl and the corresponding primary phosphine, syntheses that also afforded the phosphinidene-capped tri-iron clusters, [Fe3(CO)9(μ-CO)(μ3-Pbn′)] (2) and [Fe3(CO)9(μ3-PAr)2] (3(Ar), Ar = Ph, bn′). A ferrocenyl (Fc)-substituted dimer [Fe2(CO)6{μ:μ′-1,2-(P(CH2Fc)CH2)2C6H4}] (4), in which the two phosphido bridges are linked by an o-xylyl group, was al…

Abstract Divalent metal phosphonates are promising hybrid materials with a broad field of application. The rich coordination chemistry of the phosphonate linkers enables the formation of structures with different dimensionalities ranging from isolated complexes and layered structures to porous frameworks incorporating various functionalities through the choice of the building blocks. In brief, metal phosphonates offer an interesting opportunity for the design of multifunctional materials. Here, we provide a short review on the class of divalent metal phosphonates discussing their syntheses, structures, and applications. We present the advantages of the recently introduced mechanochemical pa…
