Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202401872. [PMID: 38400832 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202401872] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/26/2024]
Abstract
Luminescence is observed in three novel macropolyhedral nineteen- and eighteen-vertex chalcogenaboranes: Se2B17H17 (1), SeB17H19 (3) and SeB18H20 (4). This led us to the recognition that previously published macropolyhedral heteroborane species might also exhibit luminescence. Thus, the known nineteen- and eighteen-vertex dithiaboranes S2B17H17 (2), n-S2B16H16 (5) and i-S2B16H16 (6) were synthesised and also found to exhibit a range of luminescent properties. These macropolyhedral species are very different from the previously unique fluorescent binary borane B18H22 in terms of their structural architectures, by the presence of borane cluster hetero atoms, and, as in the cases of 5 and 6, that their synthetic origins are not derived simply through the modification of B18H22 itself. They consequently greatly expand the possibilities of finding new luminescent inorganic borane species.

Abstract
The review covers more than a century of decaborane chemistry from the first synthesis by Alfred Stock to the present day. The main attention is paid to the reactions of the substitution of hydrogen atoms by various atoms and groups with the formation of exo-polyhedral boron-halogen, boron-oxygen, boron-sulfur, boron-nitrogen, boron-phosphorus, and boron-carbon bonds. Particular attention is paid to the chemistry of conjucto-borane anti-[B18H22], whose structure is formed by two decaborane moieties with a common edge, the chemistry of which has been intensively developed in the last decade.

Abstract
The chemistry and physics of macropolyhedral B18H22 clusters have attracted significant attention due to the interesting photophysical properties of anti-B18H22 (blue emission, laser properties) and related potential applications. We have focused our attention on the "forgotten" syn-B18H22 isomer, which has received very little attention since its discovery compared to its anti-B18H22 isomer, presumably because numerous studies have reported this isomer as nonluminescent. In our study, we show that in crystalline form, syn-B18H22 exhibits blue fluorescence and becomes phosphorescent when substituted at various positions on the cluster, associated with peculiar microstructural-dependent effects. This work is a combined theoretical and experimental investigation that includes the synthesis, separation, structural characterization, and first elucidation of the photophysical properties of three different monothiol-substituted cluster isomers, [1-HS-syn-B18H21] 1, [3-HS-syn-B18H21] 3, and [4-HS-syn-B18H21] 4, of which isomers 1 and 4 have been proved to exist in two different polymorphic forms. All of these newly substituted macropolyhedral cluster derivatives (1, 3, and 4) have been fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, and luminescence spectroscopy. This study also presents the first report on the mechanochromic shift in the luminescence of a borane cluster and generally enriches the area of rather rare boron-based luminescent materials. In addition, we present the first results proving that they are useful constituents of carbon-free self-assembled monolayers.

Abstract
The action of AlCl3 on room-temperature tetrachloromethane solutions of anti-B18H22 (1) results in a mixture of fluorescent isomers, 3,3'-Cl2-B18H20 (2) and 3,4'-Cl2-B18H20 (3), together isolated in a 76% yield. Compounds 2 and 3 are capable of the stable emission of blue light under UV-excitation. In addition, small amounts of other dichlorinated isomers, 4,4'-Cl2-B18H20 (4), 3,1'-Cl2-B18H20 (5), and 7,3'-Cl2-B18H20 (6) were isolated, along with blue-fluorescent monochlorinated derivatives, 3-Cl-B18H21 (7) and 4-Cl-B18H21 (8), and trichlorinated species 3,4,3'-Cl3-B18H19 (9) and 3,4,4'-Cl3-B18H19 (10). The molecular structures of these new chlorinated derivatives of octadecaborane are delineated, and the photophysics of some of these species are discussed in the context of the influence that chlorination bears on the luminescence of anti-B18H22. In particular, this study produces important information on the effect that the cluster position of these substitutions has on luminescence quantum yields and excited-state lifetimes.

Abstract
New anti-octadecaborane(22) laser dyes have been recently introduced. However, their application in solid thin films is limited, despite being very desirable for electronics. Spectroscopic methods, photoluminescence (PL), and infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS), are here used to reveal structural responses to a temperature change in thin polymer films made of π- and σ-conjugated and non-conjugated polymers and anti-octadecaborane(22) and its tetra-alkylatedderivatives. It has been observed that borane clusters are not firmly fixed within polymer matrices and that their ability for diffusion out of the polymer film is unprecedented, especially at higher temperatures. This ability is related to thermodynamic transitions of polymer macromolecular chains. PL and IRRAS spectra have revealed a clear correlation with β-transition and α-transition of polymers. The influence of structure and molecular weight of a polymer and the concentration and the substitution type of clusters on mobility of borane clusters within the polymer matrix is demonstrated. A solution is proposed that led to an improvement of the temperature stability of films by 45 °C. The well-known spectroscopic methods have proved to be powerful tools for a non-routine description of the temperature behavior of both borane clusters and polymer matrices.

Abstract
As a preliminary step toward its condensation into the porous polymer Activated Borane, the thermolysis of nido-B10H14 (1) in benzene at 200 °C results in the generation of a number of phenylated borane molecular species. The principal product is the new monophenylated compound 5-Ph-nido-B10H13 (2), isolated in 48% yield (based on consumption of 1) and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, NMR, and mass spectrometry along with other minor products, such as 6-Ph-nido-B10H13 (3), for which we observe UV-light-driven conversion into 2 via a "vertex-flip" mechanism, and novel diphenylated 5,8-Ph2-nido-B10H12 (4). Together, the phenylated derivatives provide a valuable insight into the assembly of Activated Borane and ultimately inform on its structure. The new compounds also display strong blue fluorescence in both solid-state and in solution and are the first examples of the direct phenylation of nido-B10H14, thus opening the door to the straight-forward synthesis of highly luminescent organic-borane hybrid systems.

Abstract
A novel fluorescence sensor for successive detection of Cu2+and Fe3+based on anti-B18H22derivative which possesses 5-hydroxyisoquinoline as an ionophore was synthesized via a one-pot and its structure and photophysical properties were characterized by NMR, HRMS, FTIR, UV-vis, PL and theoretical calculation. The fluorophore displays two emission peaks at 460 nm and 670 nm in THF solution coming from the emission of the locally excited state and intramolecular charge transfer fluorescence, respectively. The complex exhibited obvious aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) characteristics in THF/H2O solution by increasing the aqueous concentration from 70% to 95%. The AIEE molecules showed a high selectivity towards Cu2+over other metal ions by forming a 2:1 metal-to-ligand complex in THF/H2O (fw = 20%) solution, the fluorescence intensity increased as a linear function of the Cu2+concentration at 460 nm due to the inhibition of PET effect. The fluorescent emission was quenched linearly by the addition of Fe3+, which provides a method for successive determination of Cu2+and Fe3+based on 'off-on-off' fluorescence of the fluorescent. The detection limit of Cu2+and Fe3+was 5.7 × 10-6M and 7.2 × 10-5M respectively. Morever, a rapid identification of Cu2+in the aqueous solution by naked eyes can be realized. In addition, the molecules were pH-sensitive, the fluorescence quenching can be observed in strongly alkaline environment. The method has been applied to the determination of copper ions in water samples with satisfactory results.

Abstract
High yields of novel macropolyhedral selenaboranes are reported. Reactions of the monoanions of the syn- and anti-isomers of B18H22 with powdered selenium in THF variously give new macropolyhedral selenaboranes: 19-vertex [SeB18H19]- anion 1, 19-vertex [SeB18H21]- anion 2, 20-vertex [Se2B18H19]- anion 3, and 19-vertex [Se2B17H18]- anion 4. Single-cluster [hypho-Se2B6H9]- anion 5 and neutral arachno-Se2B7H9 6 also result. All of the macropolyhedrals 1, 2, 3, and 4 are characterized by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Anions 1 and 2 each consist of an 11-vertex subcluster joined by a common two-boron edge to a 10-vertex subcluster. Anion 3 consists of an 11-vertex subcluster joined by a common boron atom and an interboron link to an arachno-type 10-vertex subcluster. Unusually, anion 3 incorporates a hexagonal pyramidal intracluster structural motif in its 11-vertex subcluster. Anion 4 entails two arachno-type 10-vertex subclusters joined by a common boron atom, and with an additional intercluster boron-boron link. NMR data for syn-B18H22 and its mono- and dianions 7 and 8 and single-crystal X-ray diffraction results for these anions and also the monoanion 9 of anti-B18H22 are also reported. The oxaborane [μ-(8,9)-O-syn-B18H20]2- dianion 10 was serendipitously formed during the work and also characterized by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. Experimental NMR and structural findings are supported by DFT calculations throughout.

Abstract
In recent work, the boron hydride anti-B18H22 was announced in the literature as a new laser dye, and, along with several of its derivatives, its solutions are capable of delivering blue luminescence with quantum yields of unity. However, as a dopant in solid polymer films, its luminescent efficiencies reduce dramatically. Clarification of underlying detrimental effects is crucial for any application and, thus, this contribution makes the initial steps in the use of these inorganic compounds in electrooptical devices based on organic polymer thin films. The photoluminescence behavior of the highly luminescent boron hydrides, anti-B18H22 and 3,3′,4,4′-Et4-anti-B18H18, were therefore investigated. The quantum yields of luminescence and photostabilities of both compounds were studied in different solvents and as polymer-solvent blends. The photophysical properties of both boranes are evaluated and discussed in terms of their solvent-solute interactions using photoluminescence (PL) and NMR spectroscopies. The UV degradability of prepared thin films was studied by fluorimetric measurement. The effect of the surrounding atmosphere, dopant concentration and the molecular structure were assessed.

Abstract
We present the first examples of alkylated derivatives of the macropolyhedral boron hydride, anti-B18H22, which is the gain medium in the first borane laser. This new series of ten highly stable and colorless organic-inorganic hybrid clusters are capable of the conversion of UVA irradiation to blue light with fluorescence quantum yields of unity. This study gives a comprehensive description of their synthesis, isolation, and structural characterization together with a delineation of their photophysical properties using a combined theoretical and experimental approach. Treatment of anti-B18H22 1 with RI (where R = Me or Et) in the presence of AlCl3 gives a series of alkylated derivatives, Rx-anti-B18H22-x (where x = 2 to 6), compounds 2-6, in which the 18-vertex octadecaborane cluster architectures are preserved and yet undergo a linear "polyhedral swelling", depending on the number of cluster alkyl substituents. The use of dichloromethane solvent in the synthetic procedure leads to dichlorination of the borane cluster and increased alkylation to give Me11-anti-B18H9Cl2 11, Me12-anti-B18H8Cl2 12, and Me13-anti-B18H7Cl2 13. All new alkyl derivatives are highly stable, extremely efficient (ΦF = 0.76-1.0) blue fluorophores (λems = 423-427 nm) and are soluble in a wide range of organic solvents and also a polystyrene matrix. The Et4-anti-B18H18 derivative 4b crystallizes from pentane solution in two phases with consequent multiabsorption and multiemission photophysical properties. An ultrafast transient UV-vis absorption spectroscopic study of compounds 4a and 4b reveals that an efficient excited-state absorption at the emission wavelength inhibits the laser performance of these otherwise remarkable luminescent molecules. All these new compounds add to the growing portfolio of octadecaborane-based luminescent species, and in an effort to broaden the perspective on their highly emissive photophysical properties, we highlight emerging patterns that successive substitutions have on the molecular size of the 18-vertex borane cluster structure and the distribution of the electron density within.

Abstract
Bromination of the luminescent borane, anti-B18H22, via electrophilic substitution using AlCl3 and Br2, yields the monosubstituted derivative 4-Br-anti-B18H21 as an air-stable crystalline solid. In contrast to the unsubstituted parent compound, 4-Br-anti-B18H21 possesses dual emission upon excitation with UV light and exhibits fluorescence at 410 nm and phosphorescence at 503 nm, with Φtotal = 0.07 in oxygen-free cyclohexane. Increased oxygen content in cyclohexane solution quenches the phosphorescence signal. The fluorescent signal intensity remains unaffected by oxygen, suggesting that this molecule could be used as a ratiometric oxygen probe.

Abstract
Methylation of anti-B18H22 (1) affords the first example of alkyl substitution of terminal hydrogen atoms on the fluorescent octadecaborane-22 molecule to give highly methylated 2,2'-Cl2-1,1',3,3',4,4',7,7',8,8',10,10'-Me12-anti-B18H8 (2). This extensive chemical substitution leads to a swelling in the polyhedral volume of the 18-vertex boron atomic skeleton of the molecule and an enhancement of the absorption and solubility characteristics of this highly fluorescent molecule. We propose this "swollen polyhedral volume" to be the result of a marked increase in the relative positivity of the "cluster-only total charge" of the boron atomic skeleton caused by the combined electron-withdrawing capacity of the 12 methyl groups. Enhancement in the absorption and solubility properties may be crucial in the design of new borane-based laser materials.

Abstract
Photoswitchable molecules have attracted wide interest for many applications in chemistry, physics, and materials science. In this work, we revisit the reversible photochemical and thermal rearrangements of the two B20H182- isomers reported by Hawthorne and Pilling in 1966, whose mechanism had not been understood so far. We investigate the rearrangements by means of a joint experimental and computational study with the outcome that B20H182- represents the first boron-based photochromic system ever reported. Both photochemical and thermal isomerizations occur through the same intermediate and involve a diamond-square-diamond (DSD) mechanism. Given the absence within boron chemistry of named chemical reactions as opposed to organic chemistry, we propose to label the B20H182- photo- and thermal isomerization processes as the Hawthorne rearrangement.

Abstract
The reaction of K[arachno-B9H14] with [NiCl2(dppe)] produces four new 19-vertex macropolyhedral metallaboranes that result from borane cluster fusion: [9'-(dppe)-9'-Ni-anti-B18H20] (1) and isomeric [11'-(dppe)-11'-Ni-syn-B18H20] (2), together with the chlorine-substituted derivative of 1, [5'-Cl-9'-(dppe)-9'-Ni-anti-B18H19] (3), and the 18-vertex cluster compound [7'-(dppe)-7'-anti-NiB17H21] (4). Two closo 10-vertex single-cluster species, [1-(dppe)-1-closo-NiB9H7Cl2] (5) and [1-(dppe)-1-closo-NiB9H7Cl(OH)] (6), were also isolated from the reaction. The production of the metalated syn-octadecaborane isomer 2 from the fusion of two arachno-nonaborate clusters is the first such case to be observed; in all other reported cases fusion has resulted in products with the anti-octadecaboranyl bis-nido configuration.

Abstract
Surface of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) was modified by chemical methods. Surface was firstly activated by Piranha solution and then grafted with selected amino-compounds (cysteamine, ethylenediamine or chitosan). The next step was grafting of some borane cluster compounds, highly fluorescent borane hydride cluster anti-B18H22 or its thiolated derivative 4,4'-(HS)2-anti-B18H20. Polymer foils were studied using various methods to characterize surface chemistry (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), roughness and morphology (atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy), chemistry and polarity (electrokinetic analysis), wettability (goniometry) and photophysical properties (UV-Vis spectroscopy) before and after modification steps. Subsequently some kinds of antimicrobial tests were performed. Immobilization of anti-B18H22 in small quantities onto UHMWPE surface leads to materials with a luminescence. Samples grafted with borane clusters showed significant inhibition of growth for gram-positive bacteria (S. epidermidis). These approaches can be used for (i) luminophores on the base of polymers nanocomposites development and/or (ii) preparation of materials with antimicrobial effects.

Abstract
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) foils were activated with piranha solution and grafted with selected amino compounds (cysteamine, ethylenediamine or chitosan) and then with borane compounds. Changes in their surface properties after particular modification steps were examined using electrokinetic analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), goniometry and UV-vis spectroscopy. Several tests showed that the presence of some amino compounds and one borane cluster significantly improved the antimicrobial properties of the composites investigated. In particular, they exhibited strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis but only weak activity against Escherichia coli. The samples modified with amino compounds and subsequently with borane clusters were luminescent under UV lamp irradiation. Therefore, the nanocomposites consisting of (cheap) polymer and (more expensive) borane could be used in luminophore development, medicine or environmental protection. Polyethylene terephthalate foils were activated with piranha solution and grafted with selected amino compounds (cysteamine, ethylenediamine or chitosan) and then with borane compounds. Their antimicrobial and optical properties were then analyzed.![]()

Abstract
In recent times, luminescent materials with tunable emission properties have found applications in almost all aspects of modern material sciences. Any discussion on the recent developments in luminescent materials would be incomplete if one does not account for the versatile photophysical features of boron containing compounds. Apart from triarylboranes and tetra-coordinate borate dyes, luminescent materials consisting of boron clusters have also found immense interest in recent times. Recent studies have unveiled the opportunities hidden within boranes, carboranes and metalloboranes, etc. as active constituents of luminescent materials. From simple illustrations of luminescence, to advanced applications in LASERs, OLEDs and bioimaging, etc., the unique features of such compounds and their promising versatility have already been established. In this review, recent revelations about the excellent photophysical properties of such materials are discussed.
