Energy Landscapes in Chemical Reactions and Transport

ChemPhysChem, Volume 26, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Kinetics/dynamics of chemical reactivity and transport of chemical species in a solid are both determined by the energy landscape in which they take place. Discussing common grounds but also distinct differences may help in advancing the understanding in both fields.

Carbon Dots: An Emerging Frontier for Green and Sustainable Civil Engineering Materials

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Traditional civil engineering materials (CE materials) are usually involved with high‐energy consumption during manufacturing, significant maintenance costs, and substantial environmental impacts throughout their life cycles. The progress of nanotechnology is catalyzing a green and sustainable transformation within the field.

Gold(I) Phosphine/Phosphido‐Borohydride Complexes

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Synthesis, structure, and electrochemical characteristics of a homologous series of gold(I) complexes featuring phosphine and phosphido–borohydride ligands. A homologous series of linear, mononuclear gold(I) phosphine/phosphido‐borohydride complexes, encompassing [Au(PR3)2]+ 1, [Au(PR3)(PR2BH3)] 2 and [Au(PR2BH3)2]– 3 (R = tBu, Ad), has been prepared ...

Ground‐ and Excited‐State Mixed Valency in a 4,4′‐Bipyridine‐Bridged Bimetallic Di‐Ruthenium Complex

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Photoinduced mixed‐valence interactions across a 4,4′‐bpy bridge were studied. MLCT excited states in the bimetallic complex are longer‐lived than in the monometallic reference, thanks to metal–metal electronic coupling and hole delocalization, but are still shorter than the nanosecond timescale relevant for diffusional reactivity.

Phosphoryl Halogen and Hydrogen Bonding Controls the Solid‐State Structures of Aryl Halide‐Containing Phosphonates

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Intramolecular (RO)2PO→Halogen interaction versus intermolecular (RO)2PO···HOH hydrogen bonds. Although the O···I distance is shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii of the atoms involved, there is no covalency involved in this interaction.

Shaking Table Tests and Numerical Analysis of Rocking Vault‐Shaped Segmental Piers Equipped With an Annular Double Sliding System

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To enhance the structural robustness of bridges, a rocking arch‐shaped segmental pier with a double sliding system was previously proposed as a low‐cost solution to protect bridges in developing countries. The rocking behavior is triggered by halting the sliding motion, which increases the horizontal load‐bearing capacity and limits ...

Spirobifluorene fusion in multiple resonance frameworks enables efficient pure‐red OLEDs with narrowband emission and suppressed efficiency roll‐off

FlexMat, EarlyView.
An orthogonal spirobifluorene‐fusion strategy is introduced for B/N/O‐alternated MR frameworks, enabling improved kRISC (5.46 × 103 s−1), high ΦPL (97%), and narrow‐band pure‐red emission. Vacuum‐evaporated OLEDs incorporating this emitter achieve an EQEmax >40% (FWHM = 36 nm) and exhibit exceptionally low efficiency roll‐off at high luminance ...
