Abstract
Chalcogenolate clusters Cd6Ag4(EPh)16(DMF)3(CH3OH) (E = S, Se) with supertetrahedral structures are isolated. Further interlinking the clusters with organic linker 4,4'-trimethylenedipiperidine in the stepwise assembly approach forms two-dimensional coordination polymers. The clusters and the coordination polymers show tunable band gaps and efficient photocatalytic activities for the degradation of aqueous dye solution. This study demonstrates the great potential of using chalcogenolate clusters and their coordination polymers in photocatalysis applications.

Abstract
Due to the ability to generate oligomers of precise sequence, sequential and stepwise solid-phase synthesis has been the dominant method of producing DNA and other oligonucleotide analogues. The requirement for a solid support, however, and the physical restrictions of limited surface area thereon significantly diminish the efficiency and scalability of these syntheses, thus, negatively affecting the practical applications of synthetic polynucleotides and other similarly created molecules. By employing the robust photoinitiated thiol-ene click reaction, we developed a new generation of clickable nucleic acids (CNAs) with a polythioether backbone containing repeat units of six atoms, matching the spacing of the phosphodiester backbone of natural DNA. A simple, inexpensive, and scalable route was utilized to produce CNA monomers in gram-scale, which indicates the potential to dramatically lower the cost of these DNA mimics and thereby expand the scope of these materials. The efficiency of this approach was demonstrated by the completion of CNA polymerization in 30 seconds, as characterized by size-exclusive chromatography (SEC) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. CNA/DNA hybridization was demonstrated by gel electrophoresis and used in CdS nanoparticle assembly.
