Published: September 2024

Dissociative electron attachment rate constants have been measured for Cr(CO)6 under thermal conditions, 296-400 K, yielding Cr(CO)5- product. At 296 K, 2.92 ± 0.70 cm3 s-1 was measured and a small decrease with temperature was observed (2.72 ± 0.70 cm3 s-1 at 400 K). We additionally determined the cation products of Ar+ reacting with Cr(CO)6.

Oxidative stress, associated with excessive production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS, RNS), contributes to the development and progression of many ailments, such as aging, cardiovascular diseases, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, diabetes, cancer, preeclampsia or multiple sclerosis. While phenols and polyphenols are the most studied antioxidants structurally similar compounds such as anilines or thiophenols are sporadically analyzed despite their radical scavenging potential. This work assesses the impact of structural features of phenols and thiophenols on their antioxidant activity.

Electron-nuclear coupling plays a crucial role in strong laser induced molecular dissociation dynamics. The interplay between electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom determines the pathways and outcomes of molecular fragmentation. However, a full quantum mechanical treatment of electron-nuclear dynamics is computationally intensive.

Photoinduced hidden monoclinic metallic phase of VO driven by local nucleation.

The insulator-to-metal transition in VO has garnered extensive attention for its potential applications in ultrafast switches, neuronal network architectures, and storage technologies. However, the photoinduced insulator-to-metal transition remains controversial, especially whether a complete structural transformation from the monoclinic to rutile phase is necessary. Here we employ the real-time time-dependent density functional theory to track the dynamic evolution of atomic and electronic structures in photoexcited VO, revealing the emergence of a long-lived monoclinic metal phase under low electronic excitation.

The synthesis of crystalline covalent organic frameworks (COFs) has in principle relied on reversible dynamic chemistry. A general method to synthesize irreversibly bonded COFs is urgently demanded for driving the COF chemistry to a new era. Here we report a universal two-step method for the straightforward synthesis of irreversibly amide-linked COF (AmCOF) membranes by autocatalytic interfacial polymerization (AIP).

Boosting Hot Electron Generation in Energy Center Embedded Metal-Organic Frameworks for Photocatalysis.

The ligands in metal-organic framework (MOF) play as light absorption center and transfer photogenerated electrons to metal node through ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) during photocatalysis, and energy utilization efficiency is strongly restricted by the light inertness of ligands. Herein, a ligand updating strategy is proposed by inserting energy centers to MOFs to activate the inherent ligands, realizing boosting hot electron generation and photocatalytic activities via the cascaded proceeding of energy transfer and charge transfer. By taking PCN-777 (a zeotype mesoporous Zr-containing MOF) as an example, this study shows that the embedded energy center of 1-pyrenecarboxylic acid (PCA) can activate the inherent ligand of PCN-777 through triplet-triplet energy transfer, where triplet excitons would dissociate into photocarriers migrating to the Zr metal cluster via LMCT process.
