Sonochemical Synthesis of two New Nano-structured Lead(II) and Mercury(II) Coordination Polymers

Two new nano-sized lead(II) and mercury(II) coordination polymers, [Pb(2-bpdh)(NO3)2(H2O)]n(1); (2-bpdh = 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza- 2,4-hexadiene)} and [Hg(4-bpdb)(SCN)2]n (2); (4-bpdb= 1,4-bis(4- pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-1,3-butadiene) were synthesized by a sonochemical method. The structure of 1 may be considered coordination polymer of lead(II) and Single crystal X–ray analysis of compound ...

AFRL-AFOSR-JP-TR-2016-0071 Controlled Interactions between Two Dimensional Layered Inorganic Nanosheets and Polymers

Controlled synthesis of ultrathin lamellar Eu(2)O(3) nanocrystals: self-assembly of 1D nanowires to 2D nanosheets.

By using 1,5-pentanediol as a capping and structure directing agent, ultrathin Eu2O3 nanosheets (<1 nm) have been synthesized and assembled into a layered structure. The lateral dimensions of the nanosheets can be tuned by simply controlling the reaction time. These layered structures exhibit a strong quantum size effect due to the extremely small thickness of the assembled nanosheets.

Two exfoliation approaches for organic layered compounds: hydrophilic and hydrophobic polydiacetylene nanosheets.

Nanosheets have attracted much interest because of their characteristic properties originating from anisotropic and flexible structures. Inorganic nanosheets are synthesized from precursor layered compounds through exfoliation in a liquid phase. In contrast, a versatile exfoliation approach has not been fully studied for organic layered compounds. Here we report two exfoliation approaches for o...

Self-Assembly of 1D/2D Hybrid Nanostructures Consisting of a Cd(II) Coordination Polymer and NiAl-Layered Double Hydroxides

The preparation and characterization of a novel hybrid material based on the combination of a 2D-layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets and a 1D-coordination polymer (1D-CP) has been achieved through a simple mixture of suspensions of both building blocks via an exfoliation/restacking approach. The hybrid material has been thoroughly characterized demonstrating that the 1D-CP moieties are in...
