Dimolybdenum Paddlewheel Complexes with Cation Binding Sites as Electrolyte Additives to Manipulate the Solid-Electrolyte Interphase at Lithium Metal Anodes

The use of electrolyte additives at millimolar loadings to control the surface chemistry of lithium metal anodes (LMAs) is a leading strategy to improve lithium metal batteries and promote electrosynthetic reactions. Whereas previous studies employed either inorganic or organic additives, in this study, we report the first organometallic additive, Mo 2 (mea) 4 [1, mea = 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)acetate], a dimolybdenum paddlewheel complex that is stable under Li plating conditions and features cation binding sites in the second coordination sphere that promote reversible Li + coordination. Binding of Li + ions to 1 induces immobilization of cationically charged aggregates (or products thereof) into the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), imparting multiple beneficial functions. The modified SEI was found to protect the LMA against parasitic side reactions, produce modest but measurable improvements to Li plating properties (e.g., overpotential, surface structure, and Coulombic efficiency), and improve interfacial charge transport properties. Furthermore, the most notable benefit to battery cycling performance appears in calendar aging tests, which show that the presence of the additive protects the LMA from parasitic side reactions that would otherwise decrease overall cell cycling efficiency over time. Collectively, these data disclose a tactic for designing electrolyte additives using principles of organometallic synthesis.

Thermal Atomic Layer Deposition of Gold: Mechanistic Insights, Nucleation, and Epitaxy

An in situ microbalance and infrared spectroscopic study of alternating exposures to Me2Au(S2CNEt2) and ozone illuminates the organometallic chemistry that allows for the thermal atomic layer deposition (ALD) of gold. In situ quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) studies resolve the nucleation delay and island growth of Au on a freshly prepared aluminum oxide surface with single cycle resolution, revealing inhibition for 40 cycles prior to slow nucleation and film coalescence that extends over 300 cycles. In situ infrared spectroscopy informed by first-principles computation provides insight into the surface chemistry of the self-limiting half-reactions, which are consistent with an oxidized Au surface mechanism. X-ray diffraction of ALD-grown gold on silicon, silica, sapphire, and mica reveals consistent out-of-plane oriented crystalline film growth as well as epitaxially directed in-plane orientation on closely lattice-matched mica at a relatively low growth temperature of 180 degrees C. A more complete understanding of ALD gold nucleation, surface chemistry, and epitaxy will inform the next generation of low-temperature, nanoscale, textured depositions that are applicable to high surface area supports.

Erratum to: Soft- and reactive landing of ions onto surfaces: concepts and applications

Soft- and reactive landing of mass-selected ions is gaining attention as a promising approach for the precisely-controlled preparation of materials on surfaces that are not amenable to deposition using conventional methods. A broad range of ionization sources and mass filters are available that make ion soft-landing a versatile tool for surface modification using beams of hyperthermal (<100?eV) ions. The ability to select the mass-to-charge ratio of the ion, its kinetic energy and charge state, along with precise control of the size, shape, and position of the ion beam on the deposition target distinguishes ion soft landing from other surface modification techniques. Soft- and reactive landing have been used to prepare interfaces for practical applications as well as precisely-defined model surfaces for fundamental investigations in chemistry, physics, and materials science. For instance, soft- and reactive landing have been applied to study the surface chemistry of ions isolated in the gas-phase, prepare arrays of proteins for high-throughput biological screening, produce novel carbon-based and polymer materials, enrich the secondary structure of peptides and the chirality of organic molecules, immobilize electrochemically-active proteins and organometallics on electrodes, create thin films of complex molecules, and immobilize catalytically active organometallics as well as ligated metal clusters. In addition, soft landing has enabled investigation of the size-dependent behavior of bare metal clusters in the critical subnanometer size regime where chemical and physical properties do not scale predictably with size. The morphology, aggregation, and immobilization of larger bare metal nanoparticles, which are directly relevant to the design of catalysts as well as improved memory and electronic devices, have also been studied using ion soft landing. This review article begins in section 1 with a brief introduction to the existing applications of ion soft- and reactive landing. Section 2 provides an overview of the ionization sources and mass filters that have been used to date for soft landing of mass-selected ions. A discussion of the competing processes that occur during ion deposition as well as the types of ions and surfaces that have been investigated follows in section 3. Section 4 discusses the physical phenomena that occur during and after ion soft landing, including retention and reduction of ionic charge along with factors that impact the efficiency of ion deposition. The influence of soft landing on the secondary structure and biological activity of complex ions is addressed in section 5. Lastly, an overview of the structure and mobility as well as the catalytic, optical, magnetic, and redox properties of bare ionic clusters and nanoparticles deposited onto surfaces is presented in section 6. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Mechanistic Study of Nucleation Enhancement in Atomic Layer Deposition by Pretreatment with Small Organometallic Molecules

Thermal atomic layer deposition (ALD) of metals on metal oxide surfaces typically suffers from nucleation delays that result in poor-quality films. The poor nucleation may be caused by a lack of suitable chemisorption sites on the oxide surface, which are needed for metal nucleation to occur. In this work, we demonstrate that prefunctionalizing the surface with a single monolayer of small organometallic molecules from the vapor phase can lead to a significant increase in surface coverage of the metal deposited by ALD. This process is demonstrated for Pt ALD from (methylcyclopentadienyl)trimethylplatinum (MeCpPtMe 3 ) and O 2 , with nucleation enhanced almost 3-fold at 100 ALD cycles after the pretreatment. We hypothesize that the high coverage of the organometallic molecule provides an alternative chemisorption mechanism for the platinum precursor and thus leads to an increase in its uptake. The proposed chemisorption mechanism is robust across several organometallic molecule pretreatments and could potentially be exploited for other organometallic-based metal ALD processes. This chemisorption mechanism was probed using in situ quadrupole mass spectrometry (QMS). The growth of the platinum deposits was investigated in depth through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS). These studies show that the pretreatment also results in the improved wettability of Pt nanoparticles (NPs). The improved wettability is likely to affect the Pt diffusion properties, further contributing to the enhancement observed on the treated substrates. In addition, GISAXS and SEM studies indicate the growth of larger, denser, and more highly ordered Pt NPs at early cycle numbers, which subsequently coalesce into continuous and pinhole-free films. Surface pretreatment by organometallic molecules therefore introduces a potential route to achieve improved nucleation and growth of ultrathin films.

Computational Investigation of the Role of Active Site Heterogeneity for aSupported Organovanadium(III) Hydrogenation Catalyst

A crucial consideration for supported heterogeneous catalysts is the nonuniformity of the active sites, particularly for supported organometallic catalysts. Standard spectroscopic techniques, such as X-ray absorption spectroscopy, reflect the nature of the most populated sites, which are often intrinsically structurally distinct from the most active catalytic sites. Additionally, with computational models, often, only a few representative structures are used to depict catalytic active sites on a surface, even though there are numerous observable factors of surface heterogeneity that contribute to the kinetically favorable active species. A previously reported study on the mechanism of a surface organovanadium-(III) catalyst [(SiO 2 )V III (Mes)(THF)] for styrene hydrogenation yielded two possible mechanisms: heterolytic cleavage and redox cycling. These two mechanistic scenarios are challenging to differentiate experimentally since the kinetic readouts of the catalyst are identical. To showcase the importance of modeling surface heterogeneity and its effect on catalytic activity, density functional theory (DFT) computational models of a series of potential active sites of [(SiO 2 )V III (Mes)(THF)] for the reaction pathways are applied in combination with kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) simulations. Computed results were then compared to the previously reported experimental kinetic study: (1) DFT free-energy reaction pathways indicated the likely active site and pathway for styrene hydrogenation, a heterolytic cleavage pathway requiring a bare tripodal vanadium site. (2) From the kMC simulations, a mixture of different bond lengths from the support oxygen to the metal center was required to qualitatively describe the experimentally observed kinetic aspects of a supported organovanadium(III) catalyst for olefin hydrogenation. This work underscores the importance of modeling surface heterogeneity in computational catalysis.

Reaction Chemistry at Discrete Organometallic Fragments on Black Phosphorus

Abstract Black phosphorus (bP) is a two‐dimensional van der Waals material unique in its potential to serve as a support for single‐site catalysts due to its similarity to molecular phosphines, ligands quintessential in homogeneous catalysis. However, there is a scarcity of synthetic methods to install single metal centers on the bP lattice. Here, we demonstrate the functionalization of bP nanosheets with molecular Re and Mo complexes. A suite of characterization techniques, including infrared, X‐ray photoelectron and X‐ray absorption spectroscopy as well as scanning transmission electron microscopy corroborate that the functionalized nanosheets contain a high density of discrete metal centers directly bound to the bP surface. Moreover, the supported metal centers are chemically accessible and can undergo ligand exchange transformations without detaching from the surface. The steric and electronic properties of bP as a ligand are estimated with respect to molecular phosphines. Sterically, bP resembles tri(tolyl)phosphine when monodentate to a metal center, and bis(diphenylphosphino)propane when bidentate, whereas electronically bP is a σ‐donor as strong as a trialkyl phosphine. This work is foundational in elucidating the nature of black phosphorus as a ligand and underscores the viability of using bP as a basis for single‐site catalysts.

Effects of surface acidity on the structure of organometallics supported on oxide surfaces

Well-defined organometallics supported on high surface area oxides are promising heterogeneous catalysts. An important design factor in these materials is how the metal interacts with the functionalities on an oxide support, commonly anionic X-type ligands derived from the reaction of an organometallic M–R with an –OH site on the oxide. The metal can either form a covalent M–O bond or form an electrostatic M + $\cdots$ – O ion-pair, which impacts how well-defined organometallics will interact with substrates in catalytic reactions. However, a less common reaction pathway involves the reaction of a Lewis site on the oxide with the organometallic, resulting in abstraction to form an ion-pair, which is relevant to industrial olefin polymerization catalysts. This Feature Article views the spectrum of reactivity between an organometallic and an oxide through the prism of Brønsted and/or Lewis acidity of surface sites and draws analogies to the molecular frame where Lewis and Brønsted acids are known to form reactive ion-pairs. Applications of the well-defined sites developed in this article are also discussed.

Silica Supported Organometallic Ir I Complexes Enable Efficient Catalytic Methane Borylation

Catalytic C–H borylation is an attractive method for the conversion of the most abundant hydrocarbon, methane (CH 4 ), to a mild nucleophilic building block. However, existing CH 4 borylation catalysts often suffer from low turnover numbers and conversions, which is hypothesized to result from inactive metal hydride agglomerates. Herein we report that the heterogenization of a bisphosphine molecular precatalyst, [(dmpe)Ir(cod)CH 3 ], onto amorphous silica dramatically enhances its performance, yielding a catalyst that is 12-times more efficient than the current standard for CH 4 borylation. The catalyst affords over 2000 turnovers at 150 °C in 16 h with a selectivity of 91.5% for mono- vs diborylation. Higher catalyst loadings improve yield and selectivity for the monoborylated product (H 3 CBpin) with 82.8% yield and >99% selectivity being achieved with 1255 turnovers. X-ray absorption and dynamic nuclear polarization-enhanced solid-state NMR spectroscopic studies identify the supported precatalyst as an Ir I species, and indicate that upon completion of catalysis, multinuclear Ir polyhydrides are not formed. This is consistent with the hypothesis that immobilization of the organometallic Ir species on a surface prevents bimolecular decomposition pathways. Importantly, immobilization of the homogeneous Ir I fragment onto amorphous silica represents a unique and simple strategy to improve the TON and longevity of a CH 4 borylation catalyst.

Removal of Homogeneous Broadening from 1 H-Detected Multidimensional Solid-State NMR Spectra

1 H-detected magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR experiments have revolutionized the NMR studies of biological and inorganic solids by providing unparalleled sensitivity and resolution. Despite these gains, homogeneous broadening, originating from the incomplete removal of homonuclear dipolar interactions under fast MAS, remains highly prevalent and limits the achievable resolution. In direct analogy to super-resolution microscopy methods, we show that resolution beyond that currently achievable by fast MAS alone can be obtained by experiment-driven deconvolution. Following the acquisition of a single 2D NMR spectrum to measure the frequency-dependent homogeneous lineshapes, any number of 1 H-detected spectra can be enhanced in resolution, yielding comparable spectra as obtained with twice the MAS frequency. In conclusion, the versatility of this approach is demonstrated in the enhancement of single- and double-quantum homonuclear correlation spectra, in addition to heteronuclear correlation spectra acquired on a surface organometallic complex and the protein GB1.

Surface vs Homogeneous Organo-Hafnium Catalyst Ion-Pairing and Ligand Effects on Ethylene Homo- and Copolymerizations

Heterogeneous catalysts have long dominated polyethylene and polypropylene production, but understanding their catalysis is challenged by uncertainties in active site structures and percentages. Surface-bound organometallic catalysts are an emerging strategy to combine successful homogeneous catalysts having well-understood structures, relatively high percentages of active sites, and exceptional control of selectivity, with the attractions of surface catalysts, to transition promising homogeneous systems to large-scale heterogeneous ones. Nevertheless, surface-bound olefin polymerization catalysts typically produce ultrahigh M w ’s but with low activity and comonomer selectivity. Here, we report the systematic synthesis and characterization of a series of pyridylamido–Hf complexes and their corresponding surface catalysts chemisorbed on sulfated alumina (AlS) and zirconia (ZrS). Comparative ethylene homo- and 1-octene copolymerizations reveal similar activity and 1-octene selectivity trends in the homogeneous and heterogeneous systems. For the surface pyridylamido–Hf catalyst series, large variations in activity (up to 10×) and 1-octene incorporation (up to 28×) are achieved by ligand and support manipulation. Interestingly, while the homogeneous catalysts exhibit positive comonomer effects in ethylene/1-octene copolymerization, the surface catalysts behave oppositely. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) reveals significantly elongated Hf···O bond distances vs typical Hf–O covalent bonds (2.06 vs 1.97 Å). Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) analysis of the heterolytic ion pair separation enthalpies, olefin insertion energetics, and NBO/Bader charges also suggest electrostatic Hf cation–anionic support binding and catalytic patterns, which are modulated by the ion-pairing energetics and ligand architecture.

Photostability of blue phosphorescent films on plasmonic surfaces

Organometallic phosphors are an important class of emissive materials used in high-efficiency organic light-emitting devices. However, problems of low photostability arise for blue-emitting phosphors due to chemical and environmental degradation and triplet quenching processes. Various approaches have been developed to improve the photostability of such phosphors, including the design of new organometallic molecules and control of host-dopant composition in thin films. Here, we demonstrate a different approach for improving the photostability of blue organometallic phosphors that uses localized surface plasmon resonances to increase the triplet recombination rate. The increased recombination rate improves the photostability of the phosphor due to the reduction in triplet quenching pathways. We show that the lifetime of phosphorescence is decreased significantly by nanoparticle-based plasmonic surfaces, which improves the photostability of the blue organometallic phosphor by up to a factor of 3.6. Other plasmonic surfaces are also tested and exhibit less significant photostability improvements due to a reduced spectral overlap of the plasmonic modes with the emitter and lower mode confinement. The use of plasmonic surfaces to improve phosphor photostability at blue wavelengths is distinct from other approaches because it involves modification to the local electromagnetic environment of the phosphor rather than modifications to the phosphor molecular structure or the emitting material composition.

Two-State Reactivity in Iron-Catalyzed Alkene Isomerization Confers σ-Base Resistance

A low-coordinate, high spin (S = 3/2) organometallic iron(I) complex is a catalyst for the isomerization of alkenes. A combination of experimental and computational mechanistic studies supports a mechanism in which alkene isomerization occurs by the allyl mechanism. Importantly, while substrate binding occurs on the S = 3/2 surface, oxidative addition to an η 1 -allyl intermediate only occurs on the S = 1/2 surface. In conclusion, since this spin state change is only possible when the alkene substrate is bound, the catalyst has high immunity to typical σ-base poisons due to the antibonding interactions of the high spin state.

Gas-Phase Formation of 1,3,5,7-Cyclooctatetraene (C 8 H 8 ) through Ring Expansion via the Aromatic 1,3,5-Cyclooctatrien-7-yl Radical (C 8 H 9 • ) Transient

Gas-phase 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene (C 8 H 8 ) and triplet aromatic 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene (C 8 H 8 ) were formed for the first time through the bimolecular methylidyne radicals (CH) - 1,3,5-cycloheptatriene (C 7 H 8 ) reactions under single collision conditions on the doublet surface. The reaction involves methylidyne radical addition to the olefinic pi electron system of 1,3,5-cycloheptatriene followed by isomerization and ring expansion to aromatic 1,3,5-cyclooctatrien-7-yl radical (C 8 H 9 •). The chemically activated doublet radical intermediate undergoes unimolecular decomposition to 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene. Substituted 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene molecules can be prepared in the gas phase with hydrogen atom(s) in the 1,3,5-cycloheptatriene reactant being replaced by organic side groups. Furthermore, these findings are also of potential interest to organometallic chemists by expanding the synthesis of exotic transition metal complexes incorporating substituted 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene dianion (C 8 H 8 2- ) ligands and to untangle the unimolecular decomposition of chemically activated and substituted 1,3,5-cyclooctatrien-7-yl radical eventually gaining a fundamental insight of their bonding chemistry, electronic structures, and stabilities.

Architector for high-throughput cross-periodic table 3D complex building

Abstract Rare-earth and actinide complexes are critical for a wealth of clean-energy applications. Three-dimensional (3D) structural generation and prediction for these organometallic systems remains a challenge, limiting opportunities for computational chemical discovery. Here, we introduce Architector , a high-throughput in-silico synthesis code for s-, p-, d-, and f-block mononuclear organometallic complexes capable of capturing nearly the full diversity of the known experimental chemical space. Beyond known chemical space, Architector performs in-silico design of new complexes including any chemically accessible metal-ligand combinations. Architector leverages metal-center symmetry, interatomic force fields, and tight binding methods to build many possible 3D conformers from minimal 2D inputs including metal oxidation and spin state. Over a set of more than 6,000 x-ray diffraction (XRD)-determined complexes spanning the periodic table, we demonstrate quantitative agreement between Architector-predicted and experimentally observed structures. Further, we demonstrate out-of-the box conformer generation and energetic rankings of non-minimum energy conformers produced from Architector , which are critical for exploring potential energy surfaces and training force fields. Overall, Architector represents a transformative step towards cross-periodic table computational design of metal complex chemistry.

Grafted nickel-promoter catalysts for dry reforming of methane identified through high-throughput experimentation

High-throughput synthesis of a series of monometallic and bimetallic catalysts (45 bimetallic and 50 monometallic samples) consisting of nickel and one of nine different metal promoters (B, Co, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Sn, V and Zn) supported on one of six different metal oxides alumina, ceria, magnesia, silica and titania) is carried out via organometallic grafting using a robotic platform. The catalysts are evaluated for their activity and selectivity for the dry reforming of methane at a feed ratio of CH 4 :CO 2 of 1 at 650–800 °C in a parallel flow reactor system. The type of oxide support prevails over the type of additive for both catalyst activity and stability. On Al 2 O 3 and MgO, Fe was found to be the best promoter; on SiO 2 , Cu is the best promoter at 700 °C and higher, while on TiO 2 , Mn is found to enhance the conversion at 800 °C. On CeO 2 , all additives except Fe have beneficial effects. Twenty-five catalysts show > 90% methane conversion with ten catalysts showing > 95% conversion at 800 °C with the H 2 :CO ratios ranging from 0.8 to 1.2. Amongst the ten highest performers, NiFe/Al 2 O 3 and NiFe/MgO are more active than Ni/Al 2 O 3 and Ni/MgO, respectively and were stable over a period of 25 h at 800 °C. Characterization on the as-prepared samples reveals highly dispersed phase, while after reduction in H 2 , highly dispersed and reduced nickel particles up to 10 nm are formed. The particles do not increase in size under dry reforming reaction conditions at 800 °C. An increased hydrogen consumption observed during H 2 -TPR of the nickel particles is positively correlated with methane conversion for Al 2 O 3 -based catalysts. The resistance to deactivation by coking and variation in coke structure are investigated by spectroscopic and microscopic methods to identify the relationship between metal promoters, alloy formation, and type of surface carbon deposits. Carbon whiskers were observed on the ten selected spent samples and are preferentially deposited on Ni rather than on the promoters. Carbon nanotube formation and metal particle removal from support were not observed to cause deactivation while amorphous carbon formation was clearly linked to catalyst deactivation, as amorphous carbon could encapsulate nickel, either on the support or at the end of the carbon nanotube. Furthermore, the organometallic grafting technique is an efficient and suitable technique for synthesizing highly dispersed and homogeneous phases which lead to high conversion and high durability for dry reforming of methane.
