Node-Dependent Photoinduced Electron Transfer in Third-Generation 2D MOFs Containing Earth-Abundant Metal Ions

Abstract

Five isostructural 2D metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), based on a photoactive CuI metallolinker and mixed mono-/dinuclear secondary building units (SBUs), are reported. The MOFs 1(M) (M = Mn, Co, Cu, Zn, and Cd) exhibit broad absorption across the visible-light spectrum and emission centered at ca. 730 nm. Upon photoexcitation, the rigidity of the framework hinders the pseudo-Jahn-Teller distortion of the metallolinker's excited state, providing efficient intersystem crossing into the triplet state. Rapid luminescence quenching in 1(Cu) and 1(Co) suggests photoinduced electron transfer (PET) to the SBUs, whereas lifetimes of up to 22.2 ns are observed in 1(Zn). The quantum yields relative to the parent photosensitizer (PS) decrease for metal nodes containing transition metal ions with partially occupied d-orbitals but increase for the d10 systems CdII and ZnII by a factor of up to 6. Importantly, the excited state decay rates directly correlate with the occupancy of the [MII(OH2)] x moieties in the MOFs providing nonradiative decay pathways via O-H oscillators. Cyclovoltammetry reveals minor changes in CuI/II oxidation potential, with excited-state reduction potentials for 1(M) rivalling Ru analogues. These results establish b...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
