Article Synopsis
  • The invention of lasers and inorganic second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals has revolutionized technology by enabling unique frequency conversions, essential for various applications including information transmission and industrial uses.
  • As the demand for shorter wavelengths and higher precision lasers increases, there is a pressing need for high-performance ultraviolet NLO materials, especially those with wavelengths less than 300 nm.
  • Current methods of discovering these materials are often inefficient and based on trial-and-error; therefore, a three-step strategy is proposed for a more rational design, focusing on screening new functional groups, regulating crystal structures, and optimizing synthesis to meet stringent performance criteria.

Phosphorescent metallaknots of Au(I)-bis(acetylide) strands directed by Cu(I) π-coordination.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

September 2024

State Key Laboratory of Structural Chemistry, Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Fuzhou 350002, P. R. China.

Knots containing metal atoms as part of their continuous strand backbone are termed as metallaknots. While several metallaknots have been synthesized through one-pot self-assembly, the designed synthesis of metallaknots by controlling the arrangement of entanglements and strands connectivity remains unexplored. Here, we report the synthesis of metallaknots composed with Au(I)-bis(acetylide) linkages and templated by Cu(I) ions.

Intermolecular Anionic Mixed-Valence and π-Dimer Complexes of ortho-Pentannulated Bisazacoronene Diimide.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

January 2025

MOLTECH-Anjou, SFR MATRIX, Univ Angers, CNRS, 2 Bd Lavoisier, 49000, Angers, France.

This study reports the serendipitous discovery of intermolecular anionic mixed-valence (MV) and π-dimer species in ortho-pentannulated BisAzaCoroneneDiimides (BACDs) during their electrochemical reduction in a non-aqueous solvent. A library of nitrogen-containing extended PDIs was synthesized via an aza-benzannulation reaction followed by a Pd-catalysed ortho-pentannulation reaction. Ortho-pentannulated BACDs revealed strong aggregation abilities in solution.
