Photoisomerization of Linear and Stacked Isomers of a Charged Styryl Dye: A Tandem Ion Mobility Study

The photoisomerization behavior of styryl 9M, a common dye used in material sciences, is investigated using tandem ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) coupled with laser spectroscopy. Styryl 9M has two alkene linkages, potentially allowing for four geometric i ...

Pyrene-based metal organic frameworks: from synthesis to applications

Berend Smit, Daniele Ongari, Christopher Patrick Ireland, Fatma Pelin Uran, Andres Adolfo Ortega Guerrero

Pyrene is one of the most widely investigated aromatic hydrocarbons given to its unique optical and electronic properties. Hence, pyrene-based ligands have been attractive for the synthesis of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) in the last few years. In this ...

New Strategies for the Functionalization of Alkenes Exploiting Tethering Chemistry and Ring Strain

Bastian Antoine Rodolphe Claude Muriel

Amino alcohols, cyclopropanes and nitriles are privileged structural motifs found in the scaffold of natural products and bioactive compounds. In addition, they are versatile building blocks in organic chemistry. The development of new and increasingly eff ...

Photo- and thermally-induced electronic and structural dynamics in perovskites and transition metal oxides

Oliviero Cannelli

In this thesis, we exploited optical and X-ray pump-probe methods in a synergistic approach to study the interplay of the electronic, spin and structural degrees of freedom in two class of complex systems relevant for solar energy conversion applications: ...

Factors affecting the reactivity of slag at early and late ages

Mohsen Ben Haha, Karen Scrivener, Yosra Briki

This study investigates the difference between the reactivity of slag in NaOH solution (w/s = 100) and in cement paste (w/b = 0.4). The reactivity of slag is much higher in NaOH solution than in cement paste. When the NaOH solution is saturated with portla ...

Ligand Effects in Low-Valent Co(I) Clathrochelate Complexes

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Ophélie Marie Planes

Clathrochelate complexes of cobalt are known in the oxidation states I, II, and III. Low-valent Co(I) complexes are highly reactive compounds, and there is only limited knowledge about their structures in the solid state. Herein, we describe the crystallog ...

Modular Chiral N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands for the Nickel-Catalyzed Enantioselective C-H Functionalization of Heterocycles

Nicolai Cramer, Johannes Diesel

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are the ligands of choice in a large variety of transformations entailing different transition metals. However, the number and variety of chiral NHCs suitable as stereo-controlling ligands in asymmetric catalysis remains limi ...

Assembly of High-Spin [Fe-3] Clusters by Ligand-Based Multielectron Reduction

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Ivica Zivkovic, Davide Toniolo

The hexanuclear [Na12Fe6(tris-cyclo-salophen)(2)(THF)(14)], 1-THF, and the trinuclear [Na6Fe3(tris-cyclo-salophen)(py)(9)], 1-py, Fe(II) clusters can be easily assembled in one step from the ligand-based reduction of the [FeII(salophen)(THF)] complex. Thes ...

Copper(I) Based Photoredox Chemistry

Murat Alkan

Photoredox catalysis has become a powerful tool for chemists. However, the reliance on expensive Ir and Ru based photoredox catalysts (PC) motivates research for more sustainable options. Copper complexes based on favorable photophysical properties, high a ...

Structure-Property Relationships of Microphase-Separated Metallosupramolecular Polymers

Emad Oveisi, Stephen Schrettl

The structural, thermomechanical, and viscoelastic properties of metallosupramolecular polymers (MSPs) can be controlled through the choice of the multiligand monomer and the nature of the metal salt from which these materials are assembled. This versatili ...

Influence of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) on the hydrolysis of a diphosphene

Shubhajit Das

We report the influence of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) on the hydrolysis of a diphosphene TerP?PTer (1; Ter = 2,6-Mes(2)C(6)H(3); Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2), a phosphorus-analogue of an alkene. The diphosphene 1 itself is completely inert towards water. Howev ...

Tuning the Thermal Stability and Photoisomerization of Azoheteroarenes through Macrocycle Strain**

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Alan Scheidegger, Raimon Fabregat I De Aguilar-Amat, Sergio Vela Llausi

Azobenzene and its derivatives are one of the most widespread molecular scaffolds used in a range of modern applications, as well as in fundamental research. After photoexcitation, azo-based photoswitches revert back to the most stable isomer on a timescal ...
