RESUMO
Six novel copper(I) cluster-based coordination polymers (CPs) [Cu9(pzt)7Cl2]n (1), [Cu2(pzt)Cl]n (2), [Cu4(pzt)3Br]n (3), [Cu(pzt)]n (4), [Cu4(pzt)3I]n (5), and [Cu7(pzt)6I]n (6) were solvothermally synthesized using Hpzt (Hpzt = pyrazine-2-thiol) ligand and well-characterized by elemental analysis, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). Six CPs exhibit either 2D (4 and 6) or 3D (1-3, and 5) network based on diverse multinuclear {CuxSy} clusters. The structural evolutions of 1-6 are greatly influenced by types of metal halides and the ligand-to-metal molar ratio used in the reaction. Among them, compound 1 displays interesting temperature-dependent photoluminescence arising from triplet cluster-centered (3CC) excited state from the cluster metal core. Compounds 1-6 also exhibit photocurrent responses upon visible-light illumination (λ = 420 nm) in the order 6 > 5 > 3 > 1 > 4 > 2. This work not only shows the structural diversity of {CuxSy} clusters-based CPs but also provides an interesting insight into structural modulation using crystal engineering concept.
RESUMO
Background: To determine the prevalence of refractive error and ocular biometric data (corneal curvature, axial length, and central corneal thickness) in 6 to 15 years old children of Li and Han ethnicities of China. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study. A cluster sampling method was used to select 2 nine-year consistent schools in the Ledong and Wanning areas of Hainan Province, with a total of 4,197 students, 3,969 valid data. Eyesight test, slit lamp, autorefraction after cycloplegia, and ocular biometric assessment were performed. The chi-square test and logistic regression analysis was taken as the comparative method. Results: Myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism are defined as: myopia: SE ≤-0.50 D; hyperopia: 0.50 D
RESUMO
Although chirality is an ever-present characteristic in biology and some artificial molecules, controlling the chirality and demystifying the chirality origin of complex assemblies remain challenging. Herein, we report two homochiral Ag14 nanoclusters with inherent chirality originated from identical rotation of six square faces on a Ag8 cube driven by intra-cluster π···π stacking interaction between pntp- (Hpntp = p-nitrothiophenol) ligands. The spontaneous resolution of the racemic (SD/rac-Ag14a) to homochiral nanoclusters (SD/L-Ag14 and SD/R-Ag14) can be realized by re-crystallizing SD/rac-Ag14a in acetonitrile, which promotes the homochiral crystallization in solid state by forming C-H···O/N hydrogen bonds with nitro oxygen atoms in pntp- or aromatic hydrogen atoms in dpph (dpph = 1,6-bis(diphenylphosphino)hexane) on Ag14 nanocluster. This work not only provides strategic guidance for the syntheses of chiral silver nanoclusters in an all-achiral environment, but also deciphers the origin of chirality at molecular level by identifying the special effects of intra- and inter-cluster supramolecular interactions.
