Targeted design of a cubic boron imidazolate cage with sensing and reducing functions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A cubic cationic cage is rationally designed by using tridentate boron-imidazolate ligands to link tetrahedral metal Zn(ii) centers, which displays excellent properties in the Cr2O7(2-) exchange and can reduce Au(3+) ions into Au nanoparticles directly.

Adsorption of proline amino acid on the surface of fullerene (C20) and boron nitride cage (B12N12): A comprehensive DFT study
In this study, the performance of fullerene (C20) and boron nitride cage (B12N12) as a sensing material for detection of proline was evaluated by density functional theory. For this purpose, the structures of proline, C20, B12N12 and the derived products from the proline adsorption on the surface of nanostructures were optimized geometrically. Then, IR and Frontier molecular orbital calculation...
متن کاملHNO Detection by Nanosized B12N12 Cage: A DFT/TDDFT Study
The interaction of a nitrosyl hydride (HNO) molecule with B12N12 nanocage was explored by means of density functional calculations. It was found that HNO prefers to be adsorbing on a boron atom of the cage with adsorption energy of -0.65 eV. This adsorption process significantly shifts the HOMO-LUMO gap (Eg) of the cage to lower energies, thereby reducing Eg of the cage from 6.84 to 2.45 eV. Ti...
متن کاملPolyhedral metal-imidazolate cages: control of self-assembly and cage to cage transformation.
A series of neutral cubic nickel(II)-imidazolate Ni8L12X4 cages were prepared by rational choices of substituents and anions with solvothermal subcomponent self-assembly technology. Both substituents and halide anions play a critical role in the formation and stabilization of cubic cages. Changing one of the factors in the reaction will switch the final structure to a Ni14L24 rhombic dodecahedr...
متن کاملSynthesis of borocarbonitride from a multifunctional Cu(I) boron imidazolate framework.
A functional Cu(I) boron imidazolate framework (BIF) with a ladder-chain structure can not only change to another single-chain structure by incorporating 4,4'-bipyridine, but can also act as a reducing agent to load trimetal Au-Ag-Pd nanoparticles directly; the BIF with loaded noble NPs showed an excellent reduction effect on 4-nitrophenol. Moreover, we obtained a porous borocarbonitride by the...

Reported here is an organic-cation templated 4-connected anionic boron imidazolate framework [N(CH(3))(4)][Cd(SH)(2)B(im)(4)] (ABIF-1, im = imidazolyl), which is synthesized from the reaction of the supertetrahedral Cd(10)S(4)(SPh)(12) cluster with [N(CH(3))(4)]Cl and NaB(im)(4). The work represents an important step in the expansion of boron imidazolate frameworks from neutral BIFs to anionic ...
