Abstract The electron density distribution (EDD) of a tetrasaccharide composed of four benzoylated fructopyranosyl units was obtained by refinement with scattering factors from the invariom library. X-ray diffraction data was downloaded from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). Bond topological and atomic properties were obtained by application of Bader’s QTAIM formalism. From a large number of 105 C–C bonds in the molecule average bond orders for 33 single and 72 aromatic bonds were calculated yielding values of 1.33 and 1.61. Molecular Hirshfeld and electrostatic potential (ESP) surfaces show that only weak non-covalent interactions exist. The phenyl rings of the benzoyl fragments in the outer regions of the molecule generate a positive ESP shell with repulsive properties between adjacent molecules. Weak surface interactions result in a rather unusual low density around 1.3 g cm−3, which is understandable when compared to other carbohydrates where strong O–H⋯O hydrogen bonds allow a 20% more dense packing with densities >1.5 g cm−3 as determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

In the title compound [systematic name: 1-(3-methyl-2,6-diphenylpiperidin-1-yl)ethanone], C20H23NO, the piperidine ring adopts a distorted boat conformation, while the phenyl rings subtend a dihedral angle 65.1 (2)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds into chains extending along the b-axis direction. The DFT/B3LYP/6–311 G(d,p) method was used to determine the HOMO–LUMO energy levels. A Hirshfeld surface analysis was conducted to verify the contributions of the different intermolecular interactions, indicating that the important contributions to the crystal packing are from H...H (73.2%), C...H (18.4%) and O...H (8.4%) interactions.

Clusteroluminogens (CLgens) refer to some non-conjugated molecules that show visible light due to the formation of aggregates and unique electronic properties with through-space interactions (TSI). Although mature and systematic theories of molecular photophysics have been developed to study conventional conjugated chromophores, it is still challenging to endow CLgens with designed photophysical properties by manipulating TSI. Herein, three CLgens with non-conjugated donor-acceptor structures and different halide substituents with secondary TSI are designed and synthesized. These molecules show multiple emissions and even white-light emission in the crystalline state and the intensity ratio of these multiple emission peaks is easily manipulated by changing the halide atom and excitation wavelength. Experimental and theoretical results successfully disclose the electronic nature of these multiple emissions: through-space conjugation for short-wavelength fluorescence, through-space charge transfer based on secondary TSI for long-wavelength fluorescence, and room-temperature phosphorescence. The introduction of secondary TSI to CLgens not only enriches their varieties of photophysical properties but also inspires the establishment of novel aggregate photophysics for clusteroluminescence.

The title compound, C70H70N8O4Se2, is a spiro bicyclic diselenide, made up of two [SeC6H4CH=N—N(CO)C6H4(C)C6H3NEt2(O)C6H3NEt2] units related by a twofold crystallographic symmetry element bisecting the diselenide bond. The compound crystallizes in a non-centrosymmetric polar space group (tetragonal, P\overline{4}b2) and the structure was refined as an inversion twin. The two diethyl amine groups and their attached phenyl groups of the xanthene ring are disordered over two orientations, with occupancies of 0.664 (19)/0.336 (19) and 0.665 (11)/0.335 (11), respectively. The dihedral angles between the mean planes of the central isoindoline and the phenyl rings are 26.8 (2) and 2.5 (4)°, respectively. The mean plane of the central xanthene ring forms dihedral angles of 2.0 (5), 8.8 (5), 1.7 (5) and 7.9 (6)° with the peripheral phenyl rings. The isoindoline and xanthene rings subtend a dihedral angle of 89.8 (2)°. The molecular conformation is stabilized by an intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond generating an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds together with C—H...π (ring) interactions, forming a three-dimensional network. A Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H...H (68.1%), C...H/H...C (21.2%) and O...H/H...O (8.7%) contacts. The optimized structure calculated using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6 – 31 G(d) level is compared with the experimentally determined molecular structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO behaviour was used to determine the energy gap and the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) of the compound was investigated.

Biogenic polyamines, especially spermine and spermidine, are associated with cell growth and development. These amines can be found at high concentrations in the tumor cells, tissues, and urine of cancer patients. In contrast, spermidine levels drop with age, and a possible connection between low endogenous spermidine concentrations and age-related deterioration has been suggested. Thus, the quantification of these amines in body fluids like urine could be used in the diagnosis of different pathological situations. Here a new fluorescent molecular probe based on a tetraphenylethylene derivative is reported. This probe is able to selectively detect these amines through the enhancement of the fluorescence emission of the resulting complex. This fluorescence enhancement may be related to restricted intramolecular rotations of TPE phenyl rings induced by the analyte. Theoretical studies were carried out to shed light on the observed selectivity. Finally, the detection of these amines in urine was performed with limits of detection of 0.70 µM and 1.17 µM for spermine and spermidine, respectively.

AbstractAnions often quench fluorescence (FL). However, strong ionic hydrogen bonding between fluorescent dyes and anion molecules has the potential to control the electronic state of FL dyes, creating new functions via non-covalent interactions. Here, we propose an approach, utilising ionic hydrogen bonding between urea groups and anions, to control the electronic states of fluorophores and develop an aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) system. The AIEE ionic hydrogen-bonded complex (IHBC) formed between 1,8-diphenylnaphthalene (p-2Urea), with aryl urea groups at the para-positions on the peri-phenyl rings, and acetate ions exhibits high environmental sensitivities in solution phases, and the FL quantum yield (QY) in ion-pair assemblies of the IHBC and tetrabutylammonium cations is more than five times higher than that of the IHBC in solution. Our versatile and simple approach for the design of AIEE dye facilitates the future development of environment-sensitive probes and solid-state emitting materials.

In the racemic title compound, C26H24N2O2S2, one of the thiazine rings shows a twisted boat conformation (Q = 0.743 Å, θ = 92.1°) and the other a half-chair puckering (Q = 0.669 Å, θ = 54.3°). The terminal phenyl rings are almost parallel to each other [dihedral angle 21.71 (10)°]. Both of these rings are orthogonal to the central phenyl ring, subtending a dihedral angle of about 78° in each case. The extended structure is consolidated by C—H...O and C—H...S hydrogen bonds as well as aromatic ring interactions of parallel-displaced and T-type. The molecule has approximate C2 local symmetry but this is not carried over to its three-dimensional structure or the intermolecular interactions.

New pyridyl-containing diarylamines were obtained via Cu-assisted reductive amination of the ortho-2-pyridylaryl boronic acids. Comparative analysis of the spectral and electrochemical data obtained for new diarylamines and their pyridyl-free counterparts revealed the intramolecular H-bond (IMHB) formation which significantly influences the properties of the amino group. The electron density at the N atom of the amino group is increased due to partial weakening of the N-H bond, although the BDE and activation energy for the H-atom abstraction is increased due to the chelating effect of two N atoms. The ortho-pyridyl-containing diarylamines are more prone to be oxidized as compared to their pyridyl-free counterparts; the shift in the oxidation potential values correlates with the strength of the intramolecular H-bonding which can be tuned by inserting substituents in the pyridyl or phenyl rings. The IMHB is reserved even in polar solvents having a significant H-acceptor ability (such as DMSO) but can be destroyed in methanol, testifying in favor of the dynamic nature of the H-bonding.

The X-ray crystal structure of the gelator 1,3:2,4-dibenzylidene-D-sorbitol (DBS) is reported here. DBS is an important gelating molecule known for nearly 130 years, that has eluded crystallization until now. The crystal obtained presents an axial stacking of DBS molecules stabilized by both Van der Waals interactions and intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the side chain hydroxyl groups with either neighboring DBS or water molecules. The crystal structure shows definitive evidence for the frequently assumed “butterfly” type aggregation mode and experimentally proves the equatorial placement of the phenyl rings. The conformation of DBS has been analyzed in the crystal structure and compared with that determined in solution through NMR spectroscopy.
