Abstract:
Recently, the investigation of novel molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) has attracted a lot of interest and becomes a fascinating field. The phenobarbital (PHN) was taken as an imprinted molecule and the 2-vinyl-4,6-diamino-1,3,5-triazine (VDAT) was considered as a functional monomer in this study. The geometry optimization, natural bond orbital (NBO) charge, and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) of PHN and VDAT were studied at the M062X level belonging to one of the hybrid density functional theories. Furthermore, we discussed the bonding conditions of PHN molecular imprinted polymers (PHN-MIPs) via the hydrogen bond length and atoms in molecules (AIM) theory. The rebinding property of PHN-MIPs was also researched. The results of MEP and NBO charge analysis were coincident. The stability property was excellent when the ratio of PHN and VDAT was 1:4. Except the classic hydrogen bonds, non-classical hydrogen bonds also existed in the imprinted polymers. By simulating the rebinding energies between the pentobarbital (PNT), barbital (BAR), and PHN-MIPs after the elution of PHN, the rebinding property of PHN-MIPs to PHN was excellent when PNT and BAR existed all at once. This research can provide theoretical reference for the synthesis and characterization of novel PHN-MIPs.

Abstract:
The thermoelectric properties of CuGaTe2 crystal are investigated by using the first-principles method and semi-classical Boltzmann theory. We find that the electronic structure of CuGaTe2 is favorable for p-type doping. The transport coefficients can be tuned by doping and changing the work temperature to yield an optimized thermoelectric performance. The optimal doping concentration is 2×1020 cm-3, in which the maximum ZT value can reach 1.65 at 900 K. The results suggest CuGaTe2 might find promising applications as good thermoelectric materials, particularly at high temperature.

Abstract:
The first-principles calculations were performed to investigate the stability, band structure, density of states and redox potential of Al-, Ga-, and In-doped monoclinic BiVO4 (mBiVO4). The calculated formation energies show that Al-doped mBiVO4 inducing an O vacancy is energetically favorable with a smaller defect formation value. With the incorporation of Al, Ga, and In, the band gap of the doped systems will be narrowed in the order of Al-doped< Ga-doped< In-doped mBiVO4, which is beneficial for the response to the visible light. And the substitution of an Al or Ga for a V atom will significantly enhance the reducibility of mBiVO4, improving the efficiency of H2 evolution from H2O. Our results show that the photocatalytic activity of mBiVO4 can be modulated by substitutional doping of Al, Ga, and In.

Abstract:
A new Schiff base compound ((NSBSH)2bipy·3H2O) based on 5-nitrosalicylal 4-methyl benzene-sulfonohydrazide (abbreviated as NSBSH), formulated as C38H40N8O13S2, has been synthesized by the condensation of 5-nitrosalicylaldehyde and 4-methylbenzenesulfonohydrazide, and structurally characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis, elemental analysis and IR spectrum. It crystallizes in monoclinic system, space group P2/c with a=13.7992(16), b=7.1410(8), c=21.403(2) Å, β=95.5660(10)° and V=2099.1(4) Å3. X-ray analysis reveals that there are obvious π-π stacking interactions between two adjacent aromatic ring planes. The intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions connect the adjacent Schiff base units into a binuclear unit, and further propagate these moieties into a two-dimensional (2D) supramolecular network. The title compound displays strong photoluminescence in the liquid state as well as high thermal stability. The experiment also shows that it has a good antibacterial activity in vitro antibacterial activity against Sarcina.

Abstract:
CoO nanostructures with tunable morphology and size have been prepared via a simple one-pot solvothermal synthesis. The as-prepared nanoparticles were fully characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), etc. The morphology and size of the product can be easily controlled by adjusting the raw materials added. Reaction time and the solvent ratio also play important roles in the synthesis of octahedral nanostructures. The magnetic property of the as-prepared samples was also investigated.

Abstract:
A novel two-dimensional lead(Ⅱ) coordination polymer 1,[C11H7Cl2NO3Pb]n, has been prepared by solvothermal reaction of new bridging ligand (5-chloro-quinolin-8-yloxy)acetic acid (HL) with PbCl2, and its structure was characterized by IR, elemental analysis, TG-DTA and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal is of monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a=16.7603(7), b=8.6907(4), c=8.4745(3) Å, β=101.1110(11)°, [C11H7Cl2NO3Pb, Mr=479.27, V=1211.25(9) Å3, Z=4, Dc=2.628 g/cm3, F(000)=880, μ=14.367 mm-1, R=0.0173 and wR=0.0508. The asymmetric unit contains one lead(Ⅱ) cation, one (5-chloro-quinolin-8-yloxy)acetate (L) ligand and a chloride ion. The PbⅡ center is hepta-coordinated in a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry. The coordination sphere of the Pb atom is completed by two oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom of the same L ligand, two bridging chloride ions and two bridging oxygen atoms of two adjacent L ligands. Two PbⅡ centers are linked by the two L ligands to form a C2-symmetric dimer unit with a planar[Pb2O2] ring. Each dimer unit acts as a secondary building unit (SBU) and links adjacent four dimer units by the chloride atoms and oxygen atoms of carboxylate groups of L, forming a two-dimensional array. Such two-dimensional layers are packed through intermolecular C-H…Cl hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. When the dimer unit is viewed as a 4-connected node, 1 is simplified as a 4-nodal 2-D network with square lattices of the diagonal lengths to be 6.079(1) Å. The fluorescence emission peak of complex 1 appears near 407nm.

A new dimeric compound,[Zn(bpdc)(L)]2·4H2O (1, L=11-fluoro-dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine and bpdc=1,1'-biphenyl-2,2'-dicarboxylate), has been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group C2/c with a=23.671(5), b=22.547(5), c=13.741(3) Å, β=123.47(3)°, V=6118(2) Å3, Z=4, C66H44Cl2F2N8O12Zn2, Mr=1380.73, Dc=1.499 g/cm3, F(000)=2816, μ(MoKa)=0.949 mm-1, R=0.0572 and wR=0.1620. In 1, Zn1 and the symmetry formed Zn1 ions are connected by four bridging bidentate carboxylate groups from two independent bpdc anions to yield a binuclear unit with the Zn…Zn separation by bpdc anions of 4.168 Å. Two L ligands are located on both sides of the dimer in chelating bidentate modes. The lateral L ligands from neighboring dimers are paired through strong π-π interactions to result in a fascinating 1D ladder-like supramolecular array. In addition, neighboring supramolecular ladders are packed each other to yield a 3D supramolecular architecture with a 1D channel.

The lateral L ligands from neighboring dimers are paired through strong π-π interactions to result in a fascinating 1D ladder-like supramolecular array. In addition, neighboring supramolecular ladders are packed each other to yield a 3D supramolecular architecture with a 1D channel.

Abstract:
Polyoxometalates (POMs) with Cd-coordination complexes acting as supporting units are rarely reported. The linkage of the supporting units with inorganic building block (polyanion) is generally established on terminal O-atoms, but scarcely via bridging O-atoms. By introducing liquid small organic molecule (pyridine, C5NH5) as assistant "structure-directing agent", we obtained a novel organic-inorganic hybrid polytungstate, (Hpy)4[Cd(phen)2(P2W18O62)]·nH2O (1, n≈3, py=pyridine, phen=1,10-phenanthroline), under hydrothermal conditions. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that 1 is the first compound containing an asymmetric heteropolyanion,[Cd(phen)2(P2W18O62)]4-, a Wells-Dawson-type polyanion monosupported by Cd-coordination complex via di-bridging O-atoms.
