Resumen

Los investigadores sintetizaron cúmulos quirales 3d-4f que exhiben una fuerte actividad magneto-óptica en el infrarrojo cercano-II (NIR-II). Estos nuevos grupos de lantánido-cobre muestran potencial para aplicaciones ópticas avanzadas.

Área de la Ciencia:

Ciencias de los materiales
Magneto-ópticas y sus derivados
Química de coordinación

Sus antecedentes:

Los materiales quirales poseen un potencial magneto-óptico significativo.
La exploración de las respuestas magneto-ópticas del infrarrojo cercano (NIR) es limitada.

Objetivo del estudio:

Para sintetizar y caracterizar cúmulos quirales 3d-4f con una fuerte actividad magneto-óptica NIR-II.
Investigar las propiedades estructurales y magnéticas que influyen en la respuesta magneto-óptica del NIR-II.

Principales métodos:

Síntesis de tres pares de agrupaciones quirales 3d-4f (β-LnCu).
Análisis estructural mediante difracción de rayos X.
Espectroscopia de dicroísmo circular magnético (MCD) para medir la actividad magneto-óptica.

Principales resultados:

Se han sintetizado con éxito grupos quirales β-LnCu (Ln = Sm, Gd, Dy) con simetría C3.
Se observó una fuerte respuesta magneto-óptica en la región NIR-II (1300-1450 nm) debido a las transiciones f-f.
Se logró un factor g máximo de 5,5 × 10−3 T−1 para el β-SmCu, superando a otros iones estudiados.

Conclusiones:

Los cúmulos Ln-Cu sintetizados exhiben una actividad magneto-óptica NIR-II significativa.
Las transiciones f-f permitidas por dipolo magnético y la quiralidad helicoidal son los motores clave de esta actividad.
Este trabajo presenta los cúmulos Ln-Cu más grandes hasta la fecha y destaca la importancia de las transiciones f-f en magneto-óptica.

Colors and Magnetism

Colors and Magnetism

Color in Coordination Complexes
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...

Stereoisomerism

Stereoisomerism

Isomerism in Complexes
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...

Chirality at Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Sulfur

Chirality at Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Sulfur

Chirality is most prevalent in carbon-based tetrahedral compounds, but this important facet of molecular symmetry extends to sp3-hybridized nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur centers, including trivalent molecules with lone pairs. Here, the lone pair behaves as a functional group in addition to the other three substituents to form an analogous tetrahedral center that can be chiral.
A consequence of chirality is the need for enantiomeric resolution. While this is theoretically possible for all...

π Electron Effects on Chemical Shift: Aromatic and Antiaromatic Compounds

In aromatic compounds, such as benzene, the circulation of (4n + 2) π-electrons sets up a diamagnetic or diatropic ring current around the perimeter of the molecule. This current induces a magnetic field that opposes the external field inside the ring and reinforces it on the outside. The protons in benzene are deshielded and exhibit high chemical shifts in the range 6.5–8.5 ppm. The shielding effect at the center of the ring is evident in complex aromatic molecules, such as...

Valence Bond Theory

Valence Bond Theory

Coordination compounds and complexes exhibit different colors, geometries, and magnetic behavior, depending on the metal atom/ion and ligands from which they are composed. In an attempt to explain the bonding and structure of coordination complexes, Linus Pauling proposed the valence bond theory, or VBT, using the concepts of hybridization and the overlapping of the atomic orbitals. According to VBT, the central metal atom or ion (Lewis acid) hybridizes to provide empty orbitals of suitable...

π Electron Effects on Chemical Shift: Overview

π Electron Effects on Chemical Shift: Overview

An applied magnetic field causes loosely bound π-electrons in organic molecules to circulate, producing a local or induced diamagnetic field over a large spatial volume. As the molecules tumble in solution, the field generated by π-electrons in spherical substituents results in a zero net field. However, the net field generated by π-electrons in non-spherical substituents is not zero. The effect of this induced field depends on the orientation of the molecule with respect to B0,...
