The synthesis of a Co(III) corrole, [10-(2-[[4-(1H-imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzoyl]amino]phenyl)-5,15-diphenylcorrolato]cobalt(III), DPTC-Co, bearing a tail motif terminating in an imidazole ligand that coordinates Co(III), is described. The corrole therefore places Co(III) in a similar environment to that in aquacobalamin (vitamin B12a, H2OCbl+) but with a different equatorial ligand. In coordinating
Co(III)钴,[10-(2-[[4-(1 H-咪唑-1-基甲基)苯甲酰基]氨基]苯基)-5,15-二苯基Corrolato]钴(III),DPTC-的合成描述了带有终止于与Co(III)配位的咪唑配体的尾部基序的Co。因此,该钴将Co(III)置于与水钴胺(维生素B 12a,H 2 OCbl +)类似的环境中,但具有不同的赤道配体。在配位溶剂中,DPTC-Co是五配位和六配位物质的混合物,溶剂分子占据了向近端咪唑配体的轴向配位位点。在80:20的MeOH / H 2 O溶液中,陈化大约1小时,主要的物种是六配位水族物种[H 2O–DPTC-Co]。至少为60μM浓度时它是单体的。配位的H 2 O具有ap K a= 9.76(6)。在相同条件下,H 2 OCbl +具有ap K a = 7.40(2)。据报道,外源性配体取代配体H 2 O的平衡常数为中性N-,P-和S-供体配体以及CN –,NO

In this work, we identify and describe a moiety that may be capable of encouraging the formation of polymorphs. Four new N-phenylbenzamide-based compounds have been synthesized yielding four pairs of polymorphs upon recrystallization. The structures of these have been discussed and compared with the previously reported polymorphs of N[2-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl]benzamide. The results indicate that the conformation of the N-phenylbenzamide group is generally constant but is sometimes altered by the crystal packing. The N-phenylbenzamide group is capable of intermolecular N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonding but requires a change in conformation which is generally resisted by the molecule. As a consequence, weak forces such as C-H center dot center dot center dot O, C-H center dot center dot center dot N, C-H center dot center dot center dot pi, and pi center dot center dot center dot pi interactions play significant but varying roles in these structures. One possible reason for the varying nature of the pi center dot center dot center dot pi interactions may be due to the variation of the electrostatic potential across the N-phenylbenzamide group in which negative and positive regions alternate across the face of the molecule. It is the combination of all these attributes that possibly leads to polymorphism being observed in the structures reported here.
A Cobalt(<scp>III</scp>) Corrole with a Tethered Imidazole for Boosted Electrocatalytic Oxygen Reduction Reaction
displayed remarkably boosted activity for the selective four-electron/four-proton (4e-/4H+) ORR with a half-wave potential of E1/2 = 0.82 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) in 0.1 mol/L KOH solutions. Importantly, we demonstrate that the tethered axial imidazole ligand improves the O2 binding ability of 1 thermodynamically and dynamically, which is crucial to boost electrocatalytic ORR performance
