This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Described herein, is the synthesis and coordination chemistry of seven novel ligands L1 - L7. These ligands form metallosupramolecular assemblies upon coordination of transition metal ions resulting in heterodi- and hetreotrimetallic double helicates and penta- and tetranuclear cyclic helicates. Described in Chapter 2 is a new class of ditopic segmental pyridyl-thiazole(py-tz) N-donor ligands L1 - L3. Reaction of L1 with ZnII ions results in the formation of a dinuclear double helicate [Zn2(L1)2]4+. Reaction of L2 with either ZnII or HgII results in the formation of the L2-containing dinuclear double helicates [Zn2(L2)2]4+ and [Hg2(L2)2]4+. However, reaction with both ZnII or HgII results in the sole formation of the heterodimetallic helicate [HgZn(L2)2]+. Both metal ions are 6-coordinate but the HgII ion is coordinated by the two py-tz-py units whereas the ZnII ion is coordinated by the py-py-tz domain. The reason that these isomeric sites have different preferences for each of the metal ions is due to the position of the thiazole unit within the terdentate domains, as in the central position the thiazole unit increases the?bite angle? of the donor unit making it more suitable for the larger HgII. Conversely the py-py-tz domain has a smaller bite angle and it more suited to the smaller ZnII ion. Reaction of L3 with ZnII, HgII and CuII results in the formation of a heterometallic trinuclear double helicate [HH-[HgCuZn(L3)2]5+. In a similar fashion to L2, the ZnII ion coordinated by the terdentate py-py-tz domain and the HgII coordinated by the py-tz-py domain. The central bipyridine unit coordinates the tetrahedral CuII ion resulting in the first reported example of a heterotrimetallic double helicate. Described in Chapter 4 is a potentially hexadentate N-donor ligand L4, which upon reaction with CdII results in the formation of a dinuclear double helicate [Cd2(L4)2]4+. In this structure the ligand partitions into two tridentate tz-py-py domains each of which coordinate a different metal ion. However, reaction of L4 with ZnII results in the formation of a pentanuclear circular helicate [Zn5(L4)5]10+, with all the five zinc ions adopting a octahedral coordination geometry arising from the coordination of the two tridentate tz-py-py domains from two different ligand strands. This difference in structure is attributed to unfavourable steric interactions which prevent the formation of [Zn2(L4)2]4+ but these unfavourable interactions are not present with the larger Cd2+ ion. Described in Chapter 5 are the potentially pentadentate and tetradentate ligands L5 and L6, respectively. The ligand L5 contains both a bidentate and tridentate binding site separated by a phenylene spacer unit. Reaction of L5 with CuII results in the formation of a pentanuclear circular helicate [Cu5(L5)5]10+. Each of the CuII ions adopts a 5-coordinate geometry formed by coordination of the bidentate domain of one ligand strand and the tridentate domain of a different ligand. As a result this gives a head-to-tail pentanuclear double helicate. Reaction of L6 and L4 (Chapter 4) with CuII results in the formation of a heteroleptic pentanuclear circular helicate [Cu5(L4)3(L6)2]10+. The cyclic array consists of five copper(II) ions, coordinated by three strands of L4 and two strands of L6. In this species four of the CuII adopt a 5- coordinate geometry arising from coordination of a tridentate domain from L4 and a bidentate domain from L6. The remaining copper ion is coordinated by two tridentate domains from L4 resulting in an octahedral coordination geometry. Described in Chapter 6 is the potentially hexadentate N-donor ligand L7 which comprises of two identical tridentate py-py-tz N3 binding domains separated by a pyrene unit. Reaction of L7 with ZnII results in the formation of a tetranuclear circular helicate [Zn4(L7)4]8+ with all four zinc metal ions adopting a six-coordinate geometry arising from the coordination of two tridentate pypy- tz units from two different ligand strands. The formation of this lower nuclearity species (e.g. tetranuclear rather than pentanuclear) is attributed to the p-stacking between the pyrene unit and the py-py-tz domain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This journey through the fascinating world of molecular topology focuses on catenanes, rotaxanes and knots, their synthesis, properties, and applications and the theory of interlocking and interpenetrating molecules. Nearly one hundred years of progress have passed since Willstätter's speculative vision of a molecule consisting of two interlinked rings. But even today the synthesis of such structures are a challenge to the creativity of synthetic chemists. These molecules are not only of academic interest, since they occur naturally. In such molecules as DNA, knots and related topological features play a key role in biochemical processes. In addition, extensive research on the properties of polyrotaxanes and polycatenanes show potential applications as molecular magnets, wires or switches. Twelve international leading experts in the field present the broad and impressive spectrum of the topology of these molecules, from theoretical aspects and new pathways in synthesis to probing their properties. All researchers working in this interdisciplinary area, whether organic, inorganic or polymer chemists, as well as material scientists, will welcome this comprehensive and up-to-date work as an inspiring source for creative research ideas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The story is told by THE inventor-pioneer-master in the field and is accompanied by amazing illustrations… [it] will become an absolute reference and a best seller in chemistry!” Alberto Credi “… the great opus on the mechanical bond. A most impressive undertaking!” Jean-Marie Lehn Congratulations to co-author J. Fraser Stoddart, a 2016 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry. In molecules, the mechanical bond is not shared between atoms—it is a bond that arises when molecular entities become entangled in space. Just as supermolecules are held together by supramolecular interactions, mechanomolecules, such as catenanes and rotaxanes, are maintained by mechanical bonds. This emergent bond endows mechanomolecules with a whole suite of novel properties relating to both form and function. They hold unlimited promise for countless applications, ranging from their presence in molecular devices and electronics to their involvement in remarkably advanced functional materials. The Nature of the Mechanical Bond is a comprehensive review of much of the contemporary literature on the mechanical bond, accessible to newcomers and veterans alike. Topics covered include: Supramolecular, covalent, and statistical approaches to the formation of entanglements that underpin mechanical bonds in molecules and macromolecules Kinetically and thermodynamically controlled strategies for synthesizing mechanomolecules Chemical topology, molecular architectures, polymers, crystals, and materials with mechanical bonds The stereochemistry of the mechanical bond (mechanostereochemistry), including the novel types of dynamic and static isomerism and chirality that emerge in mechanomolecules Artificial molecular switches and machines based on the large-amplitude translational and rotational motions expressed by suitably designed catenanes and rotaxanes. This contemporary and highly interdisciplinary field is summarized in a visually appealing, image-driven format, with more than 800 illustrations covering both fundamental and applied research. The Nature of the Mechanical Bond is a must-read for everyone, from students to experienced researchers, with an interest in chemistry’s latest and most non-canonical bond. Read the Preface
