The anions are combined into helical chains which are further bound by the water molecules into sheets. The macrocyclic cations are situated between these layers and are bound to the anions both directly and via bridging water molecules. The structure exhibits a diverse system of hydrogen bonding.

The structure is a cyclic hydroxy-N-nitrosoacid with the carboxyl and hydroxyl groups trans to each other. The carboxyl group is in the syn-conformation. In the structure, the neutral molecules are connected via classical intermolecular O-H/O hydrogen bonds involving the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups [O/O¼2.6251(14) Å ], and form chains along the a-axis direction. The chains are linked into sheets via O-H/O hydrogen bond, [O/O¼2.6813 Å ] with participation of oxygen atom of nitroso group. Ab initio calculations based on density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d, p) level of theory were performed to analyze the influence of 4-hydroxy-L-proline (Hyp) nitrosation on the conformation of the synthesized N-nitroso-compound. The geometry optimization of 1 and initial 4-hydroxy-L-proline was carried out in the gas phase and in solution using the polarizable continuum model. The single-point calculation was performed for the crystal structure of 1. The most stable conformer of 1 is observed in an aqueous solution. In this state, the pyrrolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation, which is also maintained in the gas phase. The twisted conformation of the pyrrolidine ring is present in all states of Hyp and in the crystal structure of 1. In 1 the interchange of five-membered ring conformation in solution and in the gas phase in comparison with the crystal is accompanied by an increase of the dipole moment of the molecule, which is maximal in solution.

The mononuclear derivative, [Cu([18]ane-N6)]Cl2.H2O, presents the macrocycle wrapped around the metal atom in a distorted octahedral coordinative environment, while the dinuclear derivative, [Cu2([18]ane-N6)Cl2]Cl2.4H2O, is formed by a central Cu2Cl2 core surrounded by an almost planar macrocycle. The crystal structure of both derivatives is stabilized by a network of hydrogen bonds involving the amine macrocyclic groups, the chloride anions, and the crystallization water molecules. The copper atoms in the dinuclear derivative show a strong antiferromagnetic coupling, as expected for the crystal structure parameters. A mononuclear nickel derivative has also been obtained from nickel nitrate by following the same synthetic procedure. These compounds react with TCNQ salts with formation of two types of ...

Both polymorphs 1a and 1b crystallize in the same monoclinic P2 1/ c space group, and represent conformational polymorphs, which differ by the conformation of the macrocyclic cavity. The crystal structures obtained have been compared with molecular structures computed by density functional theory (DFT). As revealed by quantum chemical calculations, both polymorphs reach different minima on potential energy surface that supports our results that different solvents template distinctive conformational isomers found in crystals.

Journal of Materials Chemistry C, 2013

Synthetic strategies to increase (i) the conjugation length of the base molecular structurethrough introduction of thiophene units bearing electronically neutral substituents (hydrogen or alkyl groups) or strong electron-withdrawing pentafluorobenzoyl group(s)and (ii) the electron affinityby moving to a benzo[1,2-d:4,3-d 0 ]bis(thiazole)-4,5-dione structurewere developed. Molecular packing in the single crystal was studied by single-crystal Xray structural analysis, and this information was subsequently used in the determination of the electronic band structures, densities of states (DOS), effective transfer integrals, and effective charge-carrier masses via density functional theory (DFT) methods. The charge-carrier transport properties of the benzo[1,2-b:6,5-b 0 ] dithiophene-4,5-dione and benzo[1,2-d:4,3-d 0 ]bis(thiazole)-4,5-dione derivatives were investigated through the fabrication and characterization of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) via both solution-processed and vacuum-deposited films. 2,7-Bis-pentafluorobenzoyl-benzo[1,2-b:6,5-b 0 ]dithiophene-4,5-dione (10a) exhibited field-effect behavior with an average electron mobility m e ¼ 4.4 (AE1.7) Â 10 À4 cm 2 V À1 s À1 when the active layer was vacuum-deposited, and a larger m e ¼ 6.9 Â 10 À3 cm 2 V À1 s À1 when the active layer was solution-processed. These results are in stark contrast with the DFT-determined electronic band structure and effective mass, which indicate that the material possesses good intrinsic charge-carrier transport characteristics. The combined results reveal the importance of thin-film processing and that further processing refinements could lead to improved device performance. Only one material with benzo[1,2d:4,3-d 0 ]bis(thiazole)-4,5-dione core, 2,7-bis-(4-n-hexyl-thiophene-2-yl)-benzo[1,2-d:4,3-d 0 ]bis(thiazole)-4,5dione (19d), showed average m e ¼ 8.2 Â 10 À5 cm 2 V À1 s À1 in OFET with solution-processed active layer.

Research paper thumbnail of Bis(oxofluorenediyl)oxacyclophanes: Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Complexation with Paraquat in the Gas Phase

Chemistry-a European Journal, 2005

The yield of the smallest oxacyclophane (m=2) is considerably higher with respect to the larger ones (m=3 and m=4), which are formed in comparable yields. Molecular modeling and NMR spectra analysis of the model compounds suggest that an essential difference in oxacyclophanes yields is caused by formation of quasi-cyclic intermediates, which are preorganized for macrocyclization owing to intramolecular pi-pi stacking interactions between the fluorenone units. The solid-state structures of these oxacyclophanes exhibit intra- and intermolecular pi-pi stacking interactions that dictate their rectangular shape in the fluorenone backbone and crystal packing of the molecules with the parallel or T-shape arrangement. The crystal packing in all cases is also sustained by weak C--HO hydrogen bonds. FAB mass spectral analysis of mixtures of the larger oxacyclophanes (m=3 and m=4) and a paraquat moiety revealed peaks corresponding to the loss of one and two PF(6) (-) counterions from the 1:1 complexes formed. However, no signals were observed for complexes of the paraquat moiety with the smaller oxacyclophane (m=2). Computer molecular modeling of complexes revealed a pseudorotaxane-like incorporation of the paraquat unit, sandwiched within a macrocyclic cavity between the almost parallel-aligned fluorenone rings of the larger oxacyclophanes (m=3 and m=4). In contrast to this, only external complexes of the smallest oxacyclophane (m=2) with a paraquat unit have been found in the energy window of 10 kcal mol(-1).

A... more Ten Zn(II) and Cd(II) metal−organic materials were synthesized and studied by the X-ray method. Among these 10 structures, two represent binuclear clusters, and two are one-dimensional (1D) coordination polymers, while five are laminar two-dimensional (2D) solids and one is the three-dimensional (3D) framework. The investigation has been aimed at rational design of coordination polymers decorated by oxime ligands to increase the accessible adsorption area in these newly synthesized solids. The ligands used include three aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, HOOC-(CH 2 ) n -COOH [n = 1, 2, 4 corresponding to malonic (H 2 mal), succinic (H 2 suc), and adipic (H 2 adi) acids], and three neutral oxime ligands [pyridine-2-aldoxime (2-pyao), pyridine-4-aldoxime (4-pyao), and 1,2cyclohexanedionedioxime Niox)]. These novel hybrid solids with the compositions [Zn 2 (suc) 2 (2-pyao) 4 ]·2H 2 O 1, [Cd 2 (suc)(2-pyao) 4 (H 2 O) 2 ][BF 4 ] 2 2, [Cd(suc)-(2-pyao) 2 ] n 3, [Zn(mal)(4-pyao)(H 2 O)] n 4, [Cd(mal)(4-pyao)(H 2 O)] n 5, [Zn-(suc)(4-pyao)] n 6, [Zn(adi)(4-pyao) 2 ] n 7, {[Cd(adi)(4-pyao) 2 ]·dmf} n 8, [Zn-(adi)(Niox)] n 9, and [Cd(adi)(Niox)] n 10 [dmf − N,N′-dimethylformamide] demonstrate a variable class of coordination supramolecular architectures dictated by the distinctions in the metals' and oxime ligands' coordination capacities and preferences, and length and flexibility of the dicarboxylic linkers. The discrete aggregates 1 and 2 differ by the components' ratio and conformation of the bridging succinate anion; compounds 3 and 7 are 1D arrays, and compounds 4, 5, 6, 8, and 9 represent 2D layers of different topologies. Compound 10 is a 3D grid afforded by the concerted contribution of the longest in this series adipate anion, and the bigger atomic radius Cd(II) vs. Zn(II). The adsorptive properties of 7 and 9 are reported. For the laminar solid 9, the quantum chemical simulations of the adsorption capacity are in line with the experimental results. All new materials reveal dual green-blue wavelength emission in the solid state.

The crystal structure and complexation behavior of these crownophanes were studied. They form much stronger complexes with dibenzylammonium hexafluorophosphate (log K a value in CH 3 CN is equal to 3.92 ± 0.06 and 4.40 ± 0.05, respectively) than benzocrown ethers. This makes them an attractive alternative for benzocrown ethers as components in supramolecular synthesis. Ó 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The crystalline complexes of O]N-HCTZ with 18-crown-6 (18C6) and cis-anti-cis-dicyclohexyl-18C6 (DCH6B) demonstrated different H-bonding modes from those present in the co-crystals of HCTZ with the same crown ethers.

Ab initio calculations based on density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d, p) level of theory were performed to analyze the influence of 4-hydroxy-L-proline (Hyp) nitrosation on the conformation of the synthesized N-nitroso-compound. The geometry optimization of 1 and initial 4-hydroxy-L-proline was carried out in the gas phase and in solution using the polarizable continuum model. The single-point calculation was performed for the crystal structure of 1. The most stable conformer of 1 is observed in an aqueous solution. In this state, the pyrrolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation, which is also maintained in the gas phase. The twisted conformation of the pyrrolidine ring is present in all states of Hyp and in the crystal structure of 1. In 1 the interchange of five-membered ring conformation in solution and in the gas phase in comparison with the crystal is accompanied by an increase of the dipole moment of the molecule, which is maximal in solution.

The mononuclear derivative, [Cu([18]ane-N6)]Cl2.H2O, presents the macrocycle wrapped around the metal atom in a distorted octahedral coordinative environment, while the dinuclear derivative, [Cu2([18]ane-N6)Cl2]Cl2.4H2O, is formed by a central Cu2Cl2 core surrounded by an almost planar macrocycle. The crystal structure of both derivatives is stabilized by a network of hydrogen bonds involving the amine macrocyclic groups, the chloride anions, and the crystallization water molecules. The copper atoms in the dinuclear derivative show a strong antiferromagnetic coupling, as expected for the crystal structure parameters. A mononuclear nickel derivative has also been obtained from nickel nitrate by following the same synthetic procedure. These compounds react with TCNQ salts with formation of two types of ...

Both polymorphs 1a and 1b crystallize in the same monoclinic P2 1/ c space group, and represent conformational polymorphs, which differ by the conformation of the macrocyclic cavity. The crystal structures obtained have been compared with molecular structures computed by density functional theory (DFT). As revealed by quantum chemical calculations, both polymorphs reach different minima on potential energy surface that supports our results that different solvents template distinctive conformational isomers found in crystals.

Synthetic strategies to increase (i) the conjugation length of the base molecular structurethrough introduction of thiophene units bearing electronically neutral substituents (hydrogen or alkyl groups) or strong electron-withdrawing pentafluorobenzoyl group(s)and (ii) the electron affinityby moving to a benzo[1,2-d:4,3-d 0 ]bis(thiazole)-4,5-dione structurewere developed. Molecular packing in the single crystal was studied by single-crystal Xray structural analysis, and this information was subsequently used in the determination of the electronic band structures, densities of states (DOS), effective transfer integrals, and effective charge-carrier masses via density functional theory (DFT) methods. The charge-carrier transport properties of the benzo[1,2-b:6,5-b 0 ] dithiophene-4,5-dione and benzo[1,2-d:4,3-d 0 ]bis(thiazole)-4,5-dione derivatives were investigated through the fabrication and characterization of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) via both solution-processed and vacuum-deposited films. 2,7-Bis-pentafluorobenzoyl-benzo[1,2-b:6,5-b 0 ]dithiophene-4,5-dione (10a) exhibited field-effect behavior with an average electron mobility m e ¼ 4.4 (AE1.7) Â 10 À4 cm 2 V À1 s À1 when the active layer was vacuum-deposited, and a larger m e ¼ 6.9 Â 10 À3 cm 2 V À1 s À1 when the active layer was solution-processed. These results are in stark contrast with the DFT-determined electronic band structure and effective mass, which indicate that the material possesses good intrinsic charge-carrier transport characteristics. The combined results reveal the importance of thin-film processing and that further processing refinements could lead to improved device performance. Only one material with benzo[1,2d:4,3-d 0 ]bis(thiazole)-4,5-dione core, 2,7-bis-(4-n-hexyl-thiophene-2-yl)-benzo[1,2-d:4,3-d 0 ]bis(thiazole)-4,5dione (19d), showed average m e ¼ 8.2 Â 10 À5 cm 2 V À1 s À1 in OFET with solution-processed active layer.

Research paper thumbnail of Bis(oxofluorenediyl)oxacyclophanes: Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Complexation with Paraquat in the Gas Phase

Chemistry-a European Journal, 2005

The yield of the smallest oxacyclophane (m=2) is considerably higher with respect to the larger ones (m=3 and m=4), which are formed in comparable yields. Molecular modeling and NMR spectra analysis of the model compounds suggest that an essential difference in oxacyclophanes yields is caused by formation of quasi-cyclic intermediates, which are preorganized for macrocyclization owing to intramolecular pi-pi stacking interactions between the fluorenone units. The solid-state structures of these oxacyclophanes exhibit intra- and intermolecular pi-pi stacking interactions that dictate their rectangular shape in the fluorenone backbone and crystal packing of the molecules with the parallel or T-shape arrangement. The crystal packing in all cases is also sustained by weak C--HO hydrogen bonds. FAB mass spectral analysis of mixtures of the larger oxacyclophanes (m=3 and m=4) and a paraquat moiety revealed peaks corresponding to the loss of one and two PF(6) (-) counterions from the 1:1 complexes formed. However, no signals were observed for complexes of the paraquat moiety with the smaller oxacyclophane (m=2). Computer molecular modeling of complexes revealed a pseudorotaxane-like incorporation of the paraquat unit, sandwiched within a macrocyclic cavity between the almost parallel-aligned fluorenone rings of the larger oxacyclophanes (m=3 and m=4). In contrast to this, only external complexes of the smallest oxacyclophane (m=2) with a paraquat unit have been found in the energy window of 10 kcal mol(-1).

A... more Ten Zn(II) and Cd(II) metal−organic materials were synthesized and studied by the X-ray method. Among these 10 structures, two represent binuclear clusters, and two are one-dimensional (1D) coordination polymers, while five are laminar two-dimensional (2D) solids and one is the three-dimensional (3D) framework. The investigation has been aimed at rational design of coordination polymers decorated by oxime ligands to increase the accessible adsorption area in these newly synthesized solids. The ligands used include three aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, HOOC-(CH 2 ) n -COOH [n = 1, 2, 4 corresponding to malonic (H 2 mal), succinic (H 2 suc), and adipic (H 2 adi) acids], and three neutral oxime ligands [pyridine-2-aldoxime (2-pyao), pyridine-4-aldoxime (4-pyao), and 1,2cyclohexanedionedioxime Niox)]. These novel hybrid solids with the compositions [Zn 2 (suc) 2 (2-pyao) 4 ]·2H 2 O 1, [Cd 2 (suc)(2-pyao) 4 (H 2 O) 2 ][BF 4 ] 2 2, [Cd(suc)-(2-pyao) 2 ] n 3, [Zn(mal)(4-pyao)(H 2 O)] n 4, [Cd(mal)(4-pyao)(H 2 O)] n 5, [Zn-(suc)(4-pyao)] n 6, [Zn(adi)(4-pyao) 2 ] n 7, {[Cd(adi)(4-pyao) 2 ]·dmf} n 8, [Zn-(adi)(Niox)] n 9, and [Cd(adi)(Niox)] n 10 [dmf − N,N′-dimethylformamide] demonstrate a variable class of coordination supramolecular architectures dictated by the distinctions in the metals' and oxime ligands' coordination capacities and preferences, and length and flexibility of the dicarboxylic linkers. The discrete aggregates 1 and 2 differ by the components' ratio and conformation of the bridging succinate anion; compounds 3 and 7 are 1D arrays, and compounds 4, 5, 6, 8, and 9 represent 2D layers of different topologies. Compound 10 is a 3D grid afforded by the concerted contribution of the longest in this series adipate anion, and the bigger atomic radius Cd(II) vs. Zn(II). The adsorptive properties of 7 and 9 are reported. For the laminar solid 9, the quantum chemical simulations of the adsorption capacity are in line with the experimental results. All new materials reveal dual green-blue wavelength emission in the solid state.

The crystal structure and complexation behavior of these crownophanes were studied. They form much stronger complexes with dibenzylammonium hexafluorophosphate (log K a value in CH 3 CN is equal to 3.92 ± 0.06 and 4.40 ± 0.05, respectively) than benzocrown ethers. This makes them an attractive alternative for benzocrown ethers as components in supramolecular synthesis. Ó 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The crystalline complexes of O]N-HCTZ with 18-crown-6 (18C6) and cis-anti-cis-dicyclohexyl-18C6 (DCH6B) demonstrated different H-bonding modes from those present in the co-crystals of HCTZ with the same crown ethers. The influence of the nitroso-group on the binding mode and crystal packing is discussed. q
