Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the intricacies of inner sphere electron transfer has been a challenge for nearly 50 years. Since the preparation of the Creutz-Taube ion extensive research in inorganic mixed valence systems has been performed. We employ coalescence of [nu](CO) bandshapes observed in the 1-D infrared (IR) spectra of mixed valence complexes to determine rate constants of electron transfer (ET). Herein we report synthesis, characterization, and spectroscopy of Ru3O clusters bound to metallic nanoparticles, and report ET rates in the "ultrafast" regime. We observe that ET rates are faster when there is favorable electronic alignment between the Ru clusters and the Au nanoparticle. In addition, results show that ground state ET rate constants that are in the "ultrafast" regime depend on the pre-exponential term within the frequency factor, [nu]N not the activation energy as expected in a system undergoing ergodic electron transfer. We extended our knowledge of these complexes by studying ET at a semiconducting nanoparticle interface. Working in collaboration with Prof. Emily Weiss at Northwestern University, a complementary view of the parameters that govern ET in such systems has been developed by investigating ET rates between the triruthenium clusters and QDs. The photoinduced electron transfer rate from photoexcited CdSe QDs to triruthenium clusters having either a pyridine-4-carboxylic acid or a 4-mercaptopyridine linkage are reported. Results show that the intrinsic charge separation rate constant (kCS,int), is approximately seven times faster for a thiol linked cluster compared to a nicotinic acid bound cluster. Thus the charge transfer rates between colloidal quantum dots and redox-active ligands adsorbed to their surfaces can be tuned through the choice of the coordinating headgroup of the ligand. We report that exchange of electrons across hydrogen bonds can increase the strength of typically weak interactions. A thermodynamically stable mixed valence dimer is obtained upon the one electron reduction of a Ru3O cluster with a isonicotinic acid ancillary ligand. Observed intervalence charge transfer bands (IVCT) indicate significant coupling between the two Ru centers through linked by a hydrogen bonding interaction. The IVCT bands are found to be best explained by a semi-classical 3-state model, further highlighting the importance of the bridging interaction in these systems. Additionally, we report that the electronic coupling between two metal centers can be modulated by simple ancillary ligand substitution. The wavefunction overlap of two metal centers bridged by a hydrogen bond is found to be non-zero. We report a series of new Ru3O clusters with ancillary ligands capable of pi-stacking in solution upon a single electron reduction. Large splittings are observed berween the reductions in the electrochemical responses of these newly synthesized systems. The effects on the electrochemical splitting of the reduction waves by donating and withdrawing ligands on the "bridge" are compared. A crystal structure of the ground state shows no significant evidence of pi-pi interaction between clusters in solution. The major themes of this thesis are the role of electronic coupling, Hab, on long range ET in supramolecular mixed valence systems, and the importance of the bridging interaction in modulating Hab in these systems.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanomedicine has shown great promise for the treatment of a variety of complex diseases including cancer. The use of nanomaterials for non-covalent drug delivery has shown great success in the delivery of photodynamic therapy drugs in animal models, and has great potential as a general delivery vector for hydrophobic drugs. A detailed understanding of what physical forces dictate efficacy in the loading, transport, and delivery of non-covalent drugs is required for optimization and clinical translation. This thesis examines the non-covalent interactions between silicon phthalocyanine 4 (Pc 4) and polyethylene glycol coated gold nanoparticles (PEGylated Au NPs) through photophysics and transport studies. A detailed investigation of Pc 4{u2019}s photophysical behavior in water both with and without Au NPs is presented, elucidating the role of intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer and aggregation behavior. Gel electrophoresis studies of PEGylated Au NPs described in this work provide insights on fundamental physical properties of NPs as well as the local environment through which they translate. This thesis provides a zbottom-up" approach to non-covalent drug delivery which will be helpful in translating non-covalent drug delivery to more complex systems.
Book Synopsis Impact of Non-covalent Interactions on the Dispersion of Fullerenes and Graphene in Polymers by : Say Lee Teh
Download or read book Impact of Non-covalent Interactions on the Dispersion of Fullerenes and Graphene in Polymers written by Say Lee Teh and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work presented in this dissertation attempts to form an understanding of the importance of polymer connectivity and nanoparticle shape and curvature on the formation of non-covalent interactions between polymer and nanoparticles by monitoring the dispersion of nanoparticles in copolymers containing functionalities that can form non-covalent interactions with carbon nanoparticles. The first portion of this study is to gain a fundamental understanding of the role of electron donating/withdrawing moieties on the dispersion of the fullerenes in copolymers. UV-Vis spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction were used to quantify the miscibility limit of C60 fullerene with the incorporation of electron donor-acceptor interactions (EDA) between the polymer and fullerene. The miscibility and dispersion of the nanoparticles in a polymer matrix are interpreted to indicate the extent of intermolecular interactions, in this case non-covalent EDA interactions. Experimental data indicate that the presence of a minority of interacting functional groups within the polymer chains leads to an optimum interaction between polymer and fullerene. This is further affirmed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations that specify the binding energy between interacting monomers and fullerenes. The second portion focuses on the impact of sample preparation on the dispersion of graphene nanocomposites. Visualization and transparency are used to quantify the dispersion of graphene in the polymer matrix. In addition, differential scanning Calorimetry (DSC) also provides insight into the efficiency of the preparation process in forming a homogeneous sample, where rapid precipitation and solvent evaporation are studied. Examining the change in glass transition temperature, T[subscript g], with nanoparticle addition also provides insight into the level of interaction and dispersion in the graphene nanocomposites. The approach of utilizing non-covalent interactions to enhance the dispersion of polymer nanocomposites is realized by varying the functional group in the copolymer chains, while the impact of nanoparticle shape is also examined. The optimum enhancement of dispersion is interpreted in terms of the improvement of interaction between polymer and nanocomposites. This interpretation leads to the conclusion that chain connectivity and the ability of the polymer to conform to the nanoparticle shape are two important factors that govern the formation of non-covalent interactions in polymer nanocomposites.
Book Synopsis Asymmetric Catalysis by : B. Bosnich
Download or read book Asymmetric Catalysis written by B. Bosnich and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-09-26 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rate of advance in areas of science is seldom constant. Usually certain fields effloresce with activity because of the ~ealization that solutions are possible to long standing important problems. So it is now with asymmetric catalysis, a field which promises to change profoundly the strategic thinking of synthetic chemists. As this Report will show, reagents which can induce catalytic enantiocontrol of chemical transformations could represent the ultimate synthetic method. Nearly all synthetic strategies of complex molecules involve steps which require enantiocontrol and, in many cases, a specific catalytic transformation embodying enan tiocontrol has enormous advantages in terms of the rate and economy of the reaction. Because asymmetric catalysis is in a formative stage, workers with different backgrounds have joined the field. This Workshop had representatives with organometallic, organic, structural, kinetic, enzymatic, microbiological and industrial backgrounds. Each had his own perspective and this Report represents a consensus of this group of eleven people. The result is probably as compre hensive and balanced a view of the subject as is possible at present. It is hoped that those who have until now had but a glancing interest in asymmetric catalysis will find this Report a useful indication of its present state. We believe that asymmetric catalysis will have an increasing impact on the development of chemistry and will eventually dominate much of synthetic and industrial chemistry.

Book Synopsis Understanding the Influence of Non-covalent Interactions and Nanoparticle Geometries in Carbon Based Polymer Nanocomposites by : Bradley Carroll Miller
Download or read book Understanding the Influence of Non-covalent Interactions and Nanoparticle Geometries in Carbon Based Polymer Nanocomposites written by Bradley Carroll Miller and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low-loading polymer nanocomposites (PNC) are an area of great interest in polymer science. As nanoparticles (NP) are typically expensive in comparison to matrix materials; the low loading regime makes the most efficient use of materials, and represents the optimum for realizing cost effective, high-performance PNCs. However, formulating effective low-loading composites is not without challenges. In addition to the typical requirement of good dispersion for efficient translation of NP properties to the bulk, low-loading composites can sometimes exhibit anomalous (non-classical) dynamics, and unpredictable properties. It is within this context that this thesis aims to examine the effects of NP geometry and softness on the occurrence and nature of anomalous melt dynamics in low-loading PNCs. The first project presented in this thesis outlines the synthesis and characterization of few-layer graphene (FLG) used in subsequent dynamics studies. From graphite to exfoliated graphite oxide, chemically reduced FLG, and annealed FLG; composition and optoelectric persistence width were tracked through elemental analysis and Raman spectroscopy respectively. A profilometic analysis of some samples was performed using atomic force microscopy. Finally, spectroscopic and compositional information were combined with a geometric growth model to yield a scaled empirical formula that is simultaneously indicative of both compositional purity and optoelectric grade. Next, PNC melt dynamics were probed for low-loading PNCs filled with fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and FLG. Graphitic nanoparticles with at least one common dimension, an identical series of styrene-acrylonitrile co-polymers matrices, and identical composite processing conditions were used to form a ceteris paribus assessment of the effect of NP geometry on PNC melt dynamics under conditions favorable for anomalous viscoelastic behavior. Rheometry and NMR relaxometry were used to probe the dynamics on both the bulk and local scale. Bulk and local, segmental dynamics were combined to create segmental scale model (with and without attractive NP-polymer interactions) describing the origin of anomalous viscoelastic behavior in the bulk. Finally, neutron reflectivity was used to probe matrix self-diffusion in low-loading PNCs of polystyrene (PS) filled with novel, PS-based, soft, nanoparticles. The effect of NP softness on the diffusive dynamics in PNCs is examined.

Download or read book Probing the Fundamental Forces of Gold Nanoparticles Interacting Through Non-covalent Quadruple Hydrogen Bonding written by Jesus Miguel Lopez Baltazar and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strong dimerization, high selectivity, and directionality of self-complementary 2-ureido-4-pyrimidone (UPy) groups can lead to the formation of novel organic-inorganic hybrid nanostructure assemblies and provide a deeper understanding into the role of hydrogen bonding (HB) on programmable self-assembly at the nanoscale. The present work focuses on probing quadruple hydrogen bonding (QHB) ligand-ligand interactions between AuNPs through quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), comparing these to Van der Waals (VdW) forces between NPs. Several NP functionalization combinations using UPy-containing ligands and ligands with no specific interacting groups (mPEG) are used in a sequence of experiments that provide the means for a quantitative comparison between Van der Waals forces and QHB interactions in nanoparticles. Our results show comparable degrees of interaction between QHB and VdW interactions, with trends that suggest that QHB between AuNPs are slightly stronger as seen through changes in frequency and changes in energy dissipation data.
Book Synopsis The Importance of Chain Connectivity in the Formation of Non-covalent Interactions Between Polymers and Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes and Its Impact on Dispersion by : Dias Linton
Download or read book The Importance of Chain Connectivity in the Formation of Non-covalent Interactions Between Polymers and Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes and Its Impact on Dispersion written by Dias Linton and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polymer nanocomposites have garnered incredible promise in the field of material science due to the excellent mechanical strength, thermal and electrical conductivities of the nanoparticles and the extension of these properties to the processing flexibility inherent to plastics. However, practical realization of these nanoparticle-based materials has been hindered by the tendency of these nanoparticles to aggregate as a result of strong inter-particle forces. In this dissertation, we investigate the formation of non covalent charge transfer interactions between polymers and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with the goal of optimizing interfacial adhesion and homogeneity of nanocomposites without modifying the SWNT native surface. Nanocomposites of SWNTs and three sets of polymer matrices with varying composition of electron donating or electron accepting functional groups were prepared. In the first part of this dissertation, quantitative characterization by optical microscopy and Raman spectroscopy and qualitative results through thick film composite visualization show that the existence of a moderate amount of interacting moieties along the polymer chain results in an enhanced intermolecular interaction with SWNT, which translates to an optimum nanoparticle homogeneity. Calculations from density functional theory and Flory-Huggins theory correlate with the experimental results, which illustrate that chain connectivity is critical in controlling the accessibility of the functional groups to form intermolecular interactions. Thus, controlling the amount of interacting functional groups throughout the polymer chain such that an adequate distance between them is realized will direct the extent of charge transfer interaction, which enables tuning the SWNT dispersion. The second part of this dissertation focuses on the elucidation of the morphology of these nanoparticle entities in a polymer matrix. The observance of microphase separated peaks in the scattering patterns of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanocomposites indicate an ordering of the PAN polymer induced by the carbon nanotube cage, which could either be due to a thermodynamically bound layer around the SWNT or the occurrence of SWNT-induced PAN crystallization. Finally, UV-Vis measurements were performed on SWNT-polymer suspension in order to comprehend the interactions that occur during nanocomposite fabrication. These results demonstrate that SWNT dispersions in pure N, N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) are stabilized by the adsorption of polymers onto the SWNTs.
