Gold(III) porphyrinates have been extensively studied due to their high stability and anticancer activity. Less attention has been paid to the structural features of such compounds. In this work, a new gold(III) complex [Au(TBPP)][AuCl4] (1) was synthesized in high yield starting from 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-butoxyphenyl)porphyrin (TBPPH2). The compound was characterized by IR, 1H NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy, ESI-MS, cyclic voltammetry and elemental CHN analysis. The crystal structure of 1 was determined using X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystalline phases [Au(TBPP)]2[AuCl4][AuCl2]*2HOAc (1a) and [Au(TBPP)]2[AuCl4][AuCl2] (1b) were also isolated. Analysis of all three crystal structures revealed the tendency of the [Au(TBPP)]+ cationic complex to form weak intermolecular Au⋯Au, Au⋯Cl, and Au⋯O interactions with [AuCl4]− anions, HOAc molecules, and neighboring [Au(TBPP)]+ cations. DFT calculations at the ωB97XD/DZP-DKH level of theory confirmed the noncovalent nature of these interactions.

Machine learning (ML) has become a powerful tool for accelerating the development of carbon-based supercapacitors;
however, most published models assume that a single predictive framework can describe both conventional
porous carbons and hybrid carbon electrodes. Here, we test this assumption using a comprehensive
benchmark dataset and an extended literature-curated dataset enriched with synthesis- and electrolyte-related
descriptors. Three ML algorithms ...

Cyanide containing wastewater can cause livestock death and reduce agricultural production and electrochemical reduction of cyanide (CNRR) is a promising way to eliminate its harm and turn waste into valuable products. However, the reaction mechanism and function of electrocatalysts for CNRR have not been fully understood yet. Herein we identify a two-dimensional (2D) conductive copper-organic ...

Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals have emerged as promising materials for next-generation light-emitting diodes (LEDs) owing to their solution processability, tunable emission wavelengths, narrow emission linewidths, and high photoluminescence quantum yields. Among them, anisotropic nanocrystals, including one-dimensional nanorods (NRs) and two-dimensional nanoplatelets (NPLs), offer additional opportunities for controlling transition dipole moment orientation and light out-coupling efficiency. These ...

The use of hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as extractants for metal ion separation is largely due to the ease of their preparation and the possibility of modifying them depending on the composition of the metal mixture to be separated. However, the most common approach to DES modification involves the replacement of the extractant, while ...

Two voluminous polymer silver(I) salts of perchlorinated dodecoborate clusters, {[(Me2CO)Ag(μ-Me2CO)2Ag(Me2CO)][μ-B12Cl12]}n (1) and {[DMFAg(μ-DMF)2AgDMF][μ-B12Cl12]}n (2) were synthesized. The 35Cl nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) spectroscopy supplemented with the X-ray diffraction data was applied for identifying and analyzing noncovalent interactions Cl···X in these salts. Whereas in X-ray diffraction, noncovalent interactions are associated with the presence of the shortened ...

We report a high-performance implementation of the resolution-of-the-identity Hartree–Fock method that fully exploits the permutational symmetry of three-center electron repulsion integrals (ERI). The present implementation adopts a hybrid MPI+OpenMP parallelization strategy. Two different algorithmic approaches (with and without the pre-transformation of ERIs) are compared. A custom data layout introduced previously is employed. Designed to efficiently ...

The development of lead sulfide (PbS) quantum dot (QD) photodetectors for short-wave infrared (SWIR) applications has been fundamentally limited by the thermodynamic instability of large PbS QD facets, which leads to aggregation and epitaxial fusion. In this work, robust thermodynamic stabilization was achieved by introducing methylammonium chloride (MACl) in PbS QD surface passivation, as validated ...

The complexation of high-spin lanthanides to porphyrinoids is a powerful strategy for the development of advanced molecular magnets. In this context, the use of expanded porphyrinoids remains elusive since their coordination chemistry is challenging to control.

Macromolecular porphyrin nanorings are receiving significant attention because of their excellent optoelectronic properties. However, their efficiencies as potential solar materials are significantly affected by nonradiative charge recombination. To understand the recombination mechanism by alternating structural parameters and using tight-binding nonadiabatic molecular dynamics, we demonstrate that charge recombination depends strongly on the mode of the linker ...
