[PMID: 38165698 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202317355] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/04/2024]
Abstract
As the fourth full-nitrogen structure, the pentazolate anion (cyclo-N5 - ) was highly coveted for decades. In 2017, the first air-stable non-metal pentazolate salt, (N5 )6 (H3 O)3 (NH4 )4 Cl, was obtained, representing a milestone in this field. As the latest member of the azole family, cyclo-N5 - is comprised of five nitrogen atoms. Although significant attention has been paid to the potential of cyclo-N5 - as an energetic material, its poor thermostability hinders any practical application. However, the unique ring structure and multiple coordination capability of cyclo-N5 - provide a platform for the fabrication of various structures, among which pentasil-zeolite topologies are the most intriguing. In addition, the introduction of structure-directing auxiliaries enables the self-assembly of diverse topological architectures, potentially imparting cyclo-N5 - with the potential to impact wide-ranging areas of coordination chemistry and topology. In this minireview, different pentasil-zeolite topologies based on metal-pentazolate frameworks are evaluated. To date, three zeolitic and zeolite-like topologies have been reported, namely the melanophlogite (MEP), chibaite (MTN), and unj topologies. The MEP topology consists of two nanocages, Na20 N60 and Na24 N60 , whereas the MTN topology contains Na20 N60 and Na28 N80 nanocages. Furthermore, the unj topology features multiple homochiral channels consisting of two helical chains. Various possible strategies for obtaining additional pentasil-zeolite topologies are also discussed.

Abstract
We report the first experimental and theoretical evaluation of the thermodynamic driving force for the reaction of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials with carbon dioxide, leading to a metal-organic carbonate phase. Carbonation upon exposure of MOFs to CO2 is a significant concern for the design and deployment of such materials in carbon storage technologies, and this work shows that the formation of a carbonate material from the popular SOD-topology framework material ZIF-8, as well as its dense-packed dia-topology polymorph, is significantly exothermic. With knowledge of the crystal structure of the starting and final phases in the carbonation reaction, we have also identified periodic density functional theory approaches that most closely reproduce the measured reaction enthalpies. This development now permits the use of advanced theoretical calculations to calculate the driving forces behind the carbonation of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks with reasonable accuracy.

Abstract
All-nitrogen materials, as a unique branch of energetic materials, have gained huge attentions, of which cyclo-N5− derivatives are the representative synthetically reported materials. However, the energetic performance of cyclo-N5− compounds has certain limitations and cannot go beyond that of CL-20. In order to reach the higher energy, in this work, we presented two kinds of polynitrogen species, N4 and N8. Two isomers of N4 and four isomers of N8 were fully calculated by using density functional theory (DFT). Theoretical results show that all these polynitrogen materials exhibit excellent heats of formation (7.92–16.60 kJ g−1), desirable detonation performance (D: 9766–11620 m s−1; p: 36.8–61.1 GPa), as well as the remarkable specific impulses (330.1–436.2 s), which are much superior to CL-20. Among them, N4-2 (tetraazahedrane) (D: 10037 m s−1; p: 40.1 GPa; Isp: 409.7 s) and cube N8-4 (D: 11620 m s−1; p: 61.1 GPa; Isp: 436.2 s) have the highest energetic properties, which are expected to become promising high-energy-density-materials. Moreover, electrostatic surface potentials, Frontier molecular orbitals, infrared spectra, natural bond orbital charges, and weak interactions were also investigated to further understand their relationship between structure and performance.

Abstract
Pressure-induced non-molecular phases of polymeric nitrogen have potential applications in the field of energetic materials. Here, through a structural search method combined with first-principles calculations, we have predicted four novel nitrogen-rich aluminum nitrides C2/m-AlN6, Cm-Al2N7, C2-Al2N7 and P1-AlN7. Nitrogen atoms polymerize into infinite chains in C2/m-AlN6, C2-Al2N7 and P1-AlN7 structures and form N3 chains and N4 rings in Cm-Al2N7. C2/m-AlN6 is stable in the pressure range from 30 to 80 GPa and Cm-Al2N7, C2-Al2N7 and P1-AlN7 are metastable in the pressure ranges of 35-65, 65-80 and 41-80 GPa, respectively. The present study predicts that C2/m-AlN6 has a superconducting transition temperature of 18.9 K at 0 GPa and can be quenched and recovered under ambient conditions. The energy densities of C2/m-AlN6, Cm-Al2N7, C2-Al2N7 and P1-AlN7 compounds are expected to be 4.80, 4.59, 5.46 and 5.59 kJ g-1, respectively, due to their high nitrogen content, indicating that they have potential to be high-energy density materials. The calculated Vickers hardness of C2/m-AlN6, Cm-Al2N7, Cm-Al2N7 and P1-AlN7 is 43.86, 39.32, 63.96 and 33.58 GPa, respectively, showing that the novel nitrogen-rich aluminum nitrides are potential superhard materials as well. This study may encourage further experimental exploration of high N content superhard or high-energy density nitrides.

Abstract
For the 22 year-old pentanitrogen cation N5+ (01), we surprisingly found that the previously reported transition states (TSs) do not correspond to N2-extrusion. We located the real N2-extrusion TS, which can well reconcile the hitherto remaining inconsistency between the gas-phase and salt-like forms of 01 both in structure and energetics.

Abstract
Polynitrides are intrinsically thermodynamically unstable at ambient conditions and require peculiar synthetic approaches. Now, a one‐step synthesis of metal–inorganic frameworks Hf4N20⋅N2, WN8⋅N2, and Os5N28⋅3 N2 via direct reactions between elements in a diamond anvil cell at pressures exceeding 100 GPa is reported. The porous frameworks (Hf4N20, WN8, and Os5N28) are built from transition‐metal atoms linked either by polymeric polydiazenediyl (polyacetylene‐like) nitrogen chains or through dinitrogen units. Triply bound dinitrogen molecules occupy channels of these frameworks. Owing to conjugated polydiazenediyl chains, these compounds exhibit metallic properties. The high‐pressure reaction between Hf and N2 also leads to a non‐centrosymmetric polynitride Hf2N11 that features double‐helix catena‐poly[tetraz‐1‐ene‐1,4‐diyl] nitrogen chains [−N−N−N=N−]∞.

Abstract
Supramolecular macrocycles are well known as guest receptors in supramolecular chemistry, especially host-guest chemistry. In addition to their wide applications in host-guest chemistry and related areas, macrocycles have also been employed to construct crystalline organic materials (COMs) owing to their particular structures that combine both rigidity and adaptivity. There are two main types of supramolecular-macrocycle-based COMs: those constructed from macrocycles themselves and those prepared from macrocycles with other organic linkers. This review summarizes recent developments in supramolecular-macrocycle-based COMs, which are categorized by various types of macrocycles, including cyclodextrins, calixarenes, resorcinarenes, pyrogalloarenes, cucurbiturils, pillararenes, and others. Effort is made to focus on the structures of supramolecular-macrocycle-based COMs and their structure-function relationships. In addition, the application of supramolecular-macrocycle-based COMs in gas storage or separation, molecular separation, solid-state electrolytes, proton conduction, iodine capture, water or environmental treatment, etc., are also presented. Finally, perspectives and future challenges in the field of supramolecular-macrocycle-based COMs are discussed.

Abstract
A series of excellent works have demonstrated that high-nitrogen-content metal pentazolate (cyclo-N5 -) compounds could be stabilized by high pressure. However, under ambient conditions, low stability precludes their synthesis and application in the field of high-energy-density material. In this work, by using a constrained structure search method, we predicted two new structures as P212121-CuN5 and P21/c-CuN5 containing cyclo-N5 - with strong N-N and Cu-N bonds. In both structures, cyclo-N5 - form four coordination with the Cu+ ligand, which increases the structural stability by lowering the disturbance to the aromaticity of cyclo-N5 -. The calculated results show that the P212121-CuN5 and P21/c-CuN5 structures exhibit high dynamic and thermal stability up to 400 K, indicating that they can be stabilized under ambient conditions. The decomposing energy of P212121-CuN5 and P21/c-CuN5 can reach up to 2.40 and 2.42 kJ/g, respectively. Strikingly, the detonation velocity and the pressure of P212121-CuN5 is predicted to be up to 10.42 km/s and 617.46 kbar, respectively, indicating that they are promising high-energy candidates in the field of explosive combustion.

Abstract
The "disappearing polymorph" phenomenon is well established in organic solids, and has had a profound effect in pharmaceutical materials science. The first example of this effect in metal-containing systems in general, and in coordination-network solids in particular, is here reported. Specifically, attempts to mechanochemically synthesize a known interpenetrated diamondoid (dia) mercury(II) imidazolate metal-organic framework (MOF) yielded a novel, more stable polymorph based on square-grid (sql) layers. Simultaneously, the dia-form was found to be highly elusive, observed only as a short-lived intermediate in monitoring solvent-free synthesis and not at all from solution. The destabilization of a dense dia-framework relative to a lower dimensionality one is in contrast to the behavior of other imidazolate MOFs, with periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations showing that it arises from weak interactions, including structure-stabilizing agostic C-H⋅⋅⋅Hg contacts. While providing a new link between MOFs and crystal engineering of organic solids, these findings highlight a possible role for agostic interactions in directing topology and stability of MOF polymorphs.

Abstract
We demonstrate a co-crystal-based strategy to create new solid hypergols, that is, materials exhibiting spontaneous ignition when in contact with an oxidant, from typically non-hypergolic fuel molecules. In these materials, the energy content and density can be changed without affecting the ignition delay. The use of an imidazole-substituted decaborane as a hypergolic "trigger" component in combination with energy-rich but non-hypergolic nitrobenzene or pyrazine yielded hypergolic co-crystals that combine improved combustion properties with ultrashort ignition delays as low as 1 ms.

Abstract
High-energy-density materials (HEDMs) have been intensively studied for their significance in fundamental sciences and practical applications. Here, using the molecular crystal structure search method based on first-principles calculations, we have predicted a series of metastable energetic trivalent metal pentazolate salts MN15 (M= Al, Ga, Sc, and Y). These compounds have high energy densities, with the highest nitrogen content among the studied nitrides so far. Pentazolate N5- molecules stack up face-to-face and form wave-like patterns in the C2221 and Cc symmetries. The strong covalent bonding and very weak noncovalent interactions with nonbonded overlaps coexist in these ionic-like structures. We find MN15 molecular structures are mechanically stable up to high temperature (∼1000 K) and ambient pressure. More importantly, these trivalent metal pentazolate salts have high detonation pressure (∼80 GPa) and velocity (∼12 km/s). Their detonation pressures exceeding that of TNT and HMX make them good candidates for high-brisance green energetic materials.

Abstract
Pentazole (HN5) and its anion ( cyclo-N5-) have been elusive for nearly a century because of the unstable N5 ring. Recently, Zhang et al. reported the first synthesis and characterization of the pentazolate anion cyclo-N5- in (N5)6(H3O)3(NH4)4Cl salt at ambient conditions ( Science 2017, 355, 374 ). However, whether the cyclo-N5- in (N5)6(H3O)3(NH4)4Cl salt is protonated or not has been debated ( Huang and Xu, Science, 2018, 359, eaao3672 ; Jiang et al. Science, 2018, 359, aas8953 ). Herein, we employed ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations, which can well present the dynamic behavior at realistic experimental conditions, to examine the potential protonated state of cyclo-N5- in both crystal and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent. Our simulations revealed that the protonation reaction of (N5)6(H3O)3(NH4)4Cl → (N5)5(N5H)(H2O)(H3O)2(NH4)4Cl is thermodynamically spontaneous according to Δ G < 0, and the small energy barrier of 12.6 kJ/mol is not enough to prevent the partial protonation of cyclo-N5- due to the temperature effect; consequently, both deprotonated and protonated cyclo-N5- exist in the crystal. In comparison, the DMSO solvent effect can remarkably reduce the difference of proton affinities among cyclo-N5-, H2O, and NH3, and the temperature effect can finally break these hydrogen bonds and lead to the deprotonated cyclo-N5- in DMSO solvent. Our AIMD simulations reconcile the recent controversy.
