Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202217483. [PMID: 36581588 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202217483] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Understanding the origin of chirality in the nanostructured materials is essential for chiroptical and catalytic applications. Here we report a chiral AgCu superatomic cluster, [Ag22 Cu7 (C≡CR)16 (PPh3 )5 Cl6 ](PPh4 ), Ag22 Cu7 , protected by an achiral alkynyl ligand (HC≡CR: 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetylene). Its crystal structure comprises a rare interpenetrating biicosahedral Ag17 Cu2 core, which is stabilized by four different types of motifs: one Cu(C≡CR)2 , four -C≡CR, two chlorides and one helical Ag5 Cu4 (C≡CR)10 (PPh3 )5 Cl4 . Structural analysis reveals that Ag22 Cu7 exhibits multiple chirality origins, including the metal core, the metal-ligand interface and the ligand layer. Furthermore, the circular dichroism spectra of R/S-Ag22 Cu7 are obtained by employing appropriate chiral molecules as optical enrichment agents. DFT calculations show that Ag22 Cu7 is an eight-electron superatom, confirm that the cluster is chirally active, and help to analyze the origins of the circular dichroism.

Abstract
The bonding character within metal nanoclusters represents an intriguing topic, shedding light on the inherent driving force for the packing preference in nanomaterials. Herein, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted to investigate the correlation of the series of isomeric [Au13 Ag12 (PR3 )10 X8 ]+ (X=Cl/Br) clusters, which are mainly differentiated by the coordination mode of the equatorial halides (μ2 -, μ3 - and μ4 -) in the rod-like, bi-icosahedral framework. The theoretical simulation corroborates the variety in the configuration of the Au13 Ag12 clusters and elucidates the fast isomerization kinetics among the different configurations. The easy tautomerization and the variety in chloride binding modes correspond to a fluxionality character of the equatorial halides and are verified by the potential energy curve analysis. The structural flexibility of the central Au3 Ag10 block is the main driving force, while the relatively stronger Ag-X bonding interaction (compared to that of Au-X), and a sufficient number of halides are also requisite for the associating Ag-X tautomerizations.

Abstract
We report the synthesis and structure of tertiary chiral nanostructures with 100 % optical purity. A novel synthetic strategy, using chiral reducing agent, R and S-BINAPCuBH4 (BINAP is 2,2'-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl), is developed to access to atomically precise, intrinsically chiral [Au7 Ag6 Cu2 (R- or S-BINAP)3 (SCH2 Ph)6 ]SbF6 nanoclusters in one-pot synthesis. The clusters represent the first tri-metallic superatoms with inherent chirality and fair stability. Both metal distribution (primary) and ligand arrangement (secondary) of the enantiomers exhibited perfect mirror images, and unprecedentedly, the self-assembly driven by the C-H⋅⋅⋅F interaction between the phenyl groups of the superatom moieties and SbF6 - anions induced the formation of bio-mimic left- and right-handed helices, achieving the tertiary chiral nanostructures. DFT calculations revealed the connections between the molecular details and chiral optical activity.

Abstract
Surface ligands play critical roles in determining the surface properties of metal clusters. However, modulating the properties and controlling the surface structure of clusters through surface-capping-agent displacement is challenging. Herein, [Ag14 (SPh(CF3 )2 )12 (PPh3 )4 (DMF)4 ] (Ag14 -DMF; DMF=N,N-dimethylformamide), with weakly coordinated DMF ligands on surface silver sites, was synthesized by a mixed-ligands strategy. Owing to the high surface reactivity of Ag14 -DMF, the surface ligands are labile, easily dissociated or exchanged by other ligands. Based on the enhanced surface reactivity, easy modulation of the optical properties of Ag14 by reversible "on-off" DMF ligation was realized. When chiral amines were introduced to as-prepared products, all eight surface ligands were replaced by amines and the racemic Ag14 clusters were converted to optically pure homochiral Ag14 clusters as evidenced by circular dichroism (CD) activity and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). This work provides a new insight into modulation of the optical properties of metal clusters and atomically precise homochiral clusters for specific applications are obtained.

Abstract
Chiral assembly and asymmetric synthesis are critically important for the generation of chiral metal clusters with chiroptical activities. Here, a racemic mixture of [K(CH3 OH)2 (18-crown-6)]+ [Cu5 (St Bu)6 ]- (1⋅CH3 OH) in the chiral space group was prepared, in which the chiral red-emissive anionic [Cu5 (St Bu)6 ]- cluster was arranged along a twofold screw axis. Interestingly, the release of the coordinated CH3 OH of the cationic units turned the chiral 1⋅CH3 OH crystal into a mesomeric crystal [K(18-crown-6)]+ [Cu5 (St Bu)6 ]- (1), which has a centrosymmetric space group, by adding symmetry elements of glide and mirror planes through both disordered [Cu5 (St Bu)6 ]- units. The switchable chiral/achiral rearrangement of [Cu5 (St Bu)6 ]- clusters along with the capture/release of CH3 OH were concomitant with an intense increase/decrease in luminescence. We also used cationic chiral amino alcohols to induce the chiral assembly of a pair of enantiomers, [d/l-valinol(18-crown-6)]+ [Cu5 (St Bu)6 ]- (d/l-Cu5V ), which display impressive circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in contrast to the CPL-silent racemic mixture of 1⋅CH3 OH and mesomeric 1.

Abstract
Atomic-level understanding of the nature of the electronically excited states in ligand-stabilized metal nanoclusters (NCs) is a prerequisite for the design of new NCs with desired properties. In this study, we investigate the emission dynamics of a Ag-DNA complex using the fluorescence up-conversion technique. We show that most of the relaxation from the Franck-Condon state to the emissive state takes place in less than 100 fs, in spite of a relatively large Stokes shift of 4500 cm-1. This relaxation is much faster than typical solvent/DNA relaxation rates. A further small relaxation occurs with time constants ranging from a few to hundreds of picoseconds. We also calculate the Stokes shift for model complexes of a small three-atom Ag3+ cluster with cytosine and guanine. The results of our calculations show that a substantial geometry change of the Ag3+ cluster is observed in the S1 state of both complexes, which results in Stokes shifts comparable with the experimental value. We conclude that the Stokes shift in the Ag-DNA complex arises mostly due to the change in the geometry of the Ag cluster in the excited state rather than to the solvent/DNA reorganization. Also, a different structure of the Ag-DNA complex ("dark cluster"), the excited state of which decays in 200 fs, is observed. The nature of this ultrafast deactivation is unclear, which requires further investigations.

Abstract
Structural isomerism allows the correlation between structures and properties to be investigated. Unfortunately, the structural isomers of metal nanoparticles are rare and genuine structural isomerism with distinctly different kernel atom packing (e.g., face-centered cubic (fcc) vs. non-fcc) has not been reported until now. Herein we introduce a novel ion-induction method to synthesize a unique gold nanocluster with a twist mirror symmetry structure. The as-synthesized nanocluster has the same composition but different kernel atom packing to an existing gold nanocluster Au42 (TBBT)26 (TBBT=4-tert-butylbenzenethiolate). The fcc-structured Au42 (TBBT)26 nanocluster shows more enhanced photoluminescence than the non-fcc-structured Au42 (TBBT)26 nanocluster, indicating that the fcc-structure is more beneficial for emission than the non-fcc structure. This idea was supported by comparison of the emission intensity of another three pairs of gold nanoclusters with similar compositions and sizes but with different kernel atom packings (fcc vs. non-fcc).

Abstract
Increased interest has been devoted to the discovery of multifunctional materials with desirable properties, as continuous performance enhancement of various devices mainly depends on high-performance materials. Now, density functional theory has become a powerful tool to design new materials and rationalize experimental observations. In this work, we explored the photophysical properties origin of chiral boron heptaaryldipyrromethene (heptaaryl-BODIPY), which has charming optoelectronic properties. At the same time, we designed the other five compounds on the basis of heptaaryl-BODIPY. The simulated electronic absorption and emission spectra of heptaaryl-BODIPY are in agreement with experimental ones, allowing us to reliably assign its electronic transition property. The designed compound 6 shows remarkably large first hyperpolarizability value up to 82.78×10-30 esu. For this kind of compounds, their NLO response values associate with not only position but also electronic nature of substituent groups. Moreover, electron reorganization energies of compounds 1-4 are comparable to tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato)aluminium(III) which is a typical electron transport material. Intriguingly, the studied compounds are the excellent fluorescent probe materials from the standpoint of large Stokes shift and high emission efficiency. Our work enables an opportunity for understanding the relationship between microelectronic structure and macroscopic performance of BODIPY derivatives.
