Affinities of six anions (mesylate, acetate, trifluoroacetate,
Recently, many new, complex, functional oxides have been discovered with the surprising use of topotactic ion‐exchange reactions on close‐packed structures, such as found for wurtzite, rutile, perovskite, and other structure types. Despite a lack of apparent cation‐diffusion pathways in these structure types, synthetic low‐temperature transformations are possible with the interdiffusion and exchange of functional cations possessing n

Abstract p ‐toluenecarboxylate,p ‐toluenesulfonate, and perfluorooctanoate) for three related Pt2+‐linked porphyrin nanocages were measured to probe the influence of different noncovalent recognition motifs (e. g., hydrogen bonding, electrostatics, π bonding) on anion binding. Two new hosts of M6L312+(1b ) and M4L28+(2 ) composition (M=(en)Pt2+, L=(3‐py)4porphyrin) were prepared in a one‐pot synthesis and allowed comparison of hosts that differ in structure while maintaining similar N−H hydrogen‐bond donor ability. Comparisons of isostructural hosts that differ in hydrogen‐bonding ability were made between1b and a related M6L312+nanoprism (1a , M=(tmeda)Pt2+) that lacks N−H groups. Considerable variation in association constants (K 1=1.6×103 M−1to 1.3×108 M−1) and binding mode (exo vs.endo ) were found for different host–guest combinations. Strongest binding was seen betweenp ‐toluenecarboxylate and1b , but surprisingly, association of this guest with1a was only slightly weaker despite the absence of NH⋅⋅⋅O interactions. The high affinity betweenp ‐toluenecarboxylate and1a could be turned off by protonation, and this behavior was used to toggle between the binding of this guest and the environmental pollutant perfluorooctanoate, which otherwise has a lower affinity for the host. -

Abstract A new nonheme iron(II) complex, FeII(Me3TACN)((OSiPh2)2O) (
1 ), is reported. Reaction of1 with NO(g)gives a stable mononitrosyl complex Fe(NO)(Me3TACN)((OSiPh2)2O) (2 ), which was characterized by Mössbauer (δ =0.52 mm s−1, |ΔE Q|=0.80 mm s−1), EPR (S =3/2), resonance Raman (RR) and Fe K‐edge X‐ray absorption spectroscopies. The data show that2 is an {FeNO}7complex with anS =3/2 spin ground state. The RR spectrum (λ exc=458 nm) of2 combined with isotopic labeling (15N,18O) reveals ν(N‐O)=1680 cm−1, which is highly activated, and is a nearly identical match to that seen for the reactive mononitrosyl intermediate in the nonheme iron enzyme FDPnor (ν(NO)=1681 cm−1). Complex2 reacts rapidly with H2O in THF to produce the N‐N coupled product N2O, providing the first example of a mononuclear nonheme iron complex that is capable of converting NO to N2O in the absence of an exogenous reductant. -

Abstract Earth system models (
ESM s) rely on the calculation of canopy conductance in land surface models (LSM s) to quantify the partitioning of land surface energy, water, andCO 2fluxes. This is achieved by scaling stomatal conductance,g w, determined from physiological models developed for leaves. Traditionally, models forg whave been semi‐empirical, combining physiological functions with empirically determined calibration constants. More recently, optimization theory has been applied to modelg winLSM s under the premise that it has a stronger grounding in physiological theory and might ultimately lead to improved predictive accuracy. However, this premise has not been thoroughly tested. Using original field data from contrasting forest systems, we compare a widely used empirical type and a more recently developed optimization‐typeg wmodel, termedBB andMED , respectively. Overall, we find no difference between the two models when used to simulateg wfrom photosynthesis data, or leaf gas exchange from a coupled photosynthesis‐conductance model, or gross primary productivity and evapotranspiration for aFLUXNET tower site with theCLM 5 communityLSM . Field measurements reveal that the key fitted parameters forBB andMED ,g 1Bandg 1M,exhibit strong species specificity in magnitude and sensitivity toCO 2, andCLM 5 simulations reveal that failure to include this sensitivity can result in significant overestimates of evapotranspiration for high‐CO 2scenarios. Further, we show thatg 1Bandg 1Mcan be determined from meanc i/c a(ratio of leaf intercellular to ambientCO 2concentration). Applying this relationship withc i/c avalues derived from a leaf δ13C database, we obtain a global distribution ofg 1Bandg 1M, and these values correlate significantly with mean annual precipitation. This provides a new methodology for global parameterization of theBB andMED models inLSM s, tied directly to leaf physiology but unconstrained by spatial boundaries separating designated biomes or plant functional types. -

Abstract Organofunctionalized tetranuclear clusters [(MIICl)2(VIVO)2{((HOCH2CH2)(H)N(CH2CH2O))(HN(CH2CH2O)2)}2] (
1 , M=Co,2 : M=Zn) containing an unprecedented oxometallacyclic {M2V2Cl2N4O8} (M=Co, Zn) framework have been prepared by solvothermal reactions. The new oxo‐alkoxide compounds were fully characterized by spectroscopic methods, magnetic susceptibility measurement, DFT and ab initio computational methods, and complete single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction structure analysis. The isostructural clusters are formed of edge‐sharing octahedral {VO5N} and trigonal bipyramidal {MO3NCl} units. Diethanolamine ligates the bimetallic lacunary double cubane core of1 and2 in an unusual two‐mode fashion, unobserved previously. In the crystalline state, the clusters of1 and2 are joined by hydrogen bonds to form a three‐dimensional network structure. Magnetic susceptibility data indicate weakly antiferromagnetic interactions between the vanadium centers [J iso(VIV−VIV)=−5.4(1 ); −3.9(2 ) cm−1], and inequivalent antiferromagnetic interactions between the cobalt and vanadium centers [J iso(VIV−CoII)=−12.6 and −7.5 cm−1] contained in1 .
