Abstract
Nanoscale electron transfer (ET) in solids is fundamental to the design of multifunctional nanomaterials, yet its process is not fully understood. Herein, through X-ray crystallography, we directly observe solid-state ET via a crystal-to-crystal process. We first demonstrate the creation of a robust and flexible electron acceptor/acceptor (A/A) double-wall nanotube crystal ([(Zn2+)4(LA)4(LA=O)4]n) with a large window (0.90 nm × 0.92 nm) through the one-dimensional porous crystallization of heteroleptic Zn4 metallocycles ((Zn2+)4(LA)4(LA=O)4) with two different acceptor ligands (2,7-bis((1-ethyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)ethynyl)acridine (LA) and 2,7-bis((1-ethyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)ethynyl)acridin-9(10H)-one (LA=O)) in a slow-oxidation-associated crystallization procedure. We then achieve the bottom-up construction of the electron donor incorporated-A/A nanotube crystal ([(D)2⊂(Zn2+)4(LA)4(LA=O)4]n) through the subsequent absorption of electron donor guests (D = tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and ferrocene (Fc)). Finally, we remove electrons from the electron donor guests inside the nanotube crystal through facile ET in the solid state to accumulate holes inside the nanotube crystal ([(D•+)2⊂(Zn2+)4(LA)4(LA=O)4]n), where the solid-state ET process (D - e- → D•+) is thus observed directly by X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
The sustainable chemical energy of H2O2 as a fuel and an oxidant in an advantageous single-compartment fuel cell design can be converted into electric energy, which requires molecular engineering to design suitable cathodes for lowering the high overpotential associated with H2O2 reduction. The present work covers the synthesis and structural characterization of a novel cathode material, [FeIII2(hnmh-PLY)3] complex, 1, designed from a PLY-derived Schiff base ligand (E)-9-(2-((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene)hydrazineyl)-1H-phenalen-1-one, hnmh-PLYH2. Complex 1, when coated on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GC-1) significantly catalyzed the reduction of H2O2 in an acidic medium. Therefore, a complex 1 modified glassy carbon electrode was employed in a one-compartment H2O2 fuel cell operated in 0.1 M HCl with Ni foam as the corresponding anode to produce a high open circuit potential (OCP) of 0.65 V and a peak power density (PPD) of 2.84 mW cm-2. CV studies of complex 1 revealed the crucial participation of two Fe(III) centers for initiating H2O2 reduction, and the role of coordinated redox-active PLY units is also highlighted. In the solid state, the π-conjugated network of coordinating (hnmh-PLY) ligands in complex 1 has manifested interesting face-to-face π-π stacking interactions, which have helped the reduction of the complex and facilitated the overall catalytic performance.

Abstract
Catalytic cross-coupling between aryl halides and alkynes is considered an extremely important organic transformation (popularly known as the Sonogashira coupling) and it requires a transition metal-based catalyst. Accomplishing such transformation without any transition metal-based catalyst in the absence of any external stimuli such as heat, photoexcitation or cathodic current is highly challenging. This work reports transition-metal-free cross-coupling between aryl halides and alkynes synthesizing a rich library of internal alkynes without any external stimuli. A chemically double-reduced phenalenyl (PLY)-based molecule with the super-reducing property was employed for single electron transfer to activate aryl halides generating reactive aryl radicals, which subsequently react with alkyne. This protocol covers not only various types of aryl, heteroaryl and polyaryl halides but also applies to a large variety of aromatic alkynes at room temperature. With a versatile substrate scope successfully tested on more than 75 entries, this radical-mediated pathway has been explained by several control experiments. All the key reactive intermediates have been characterized with spectroscopic evidence. Detailed DFT calculations have been instrumental in portraying the mechanistic pathway. Furthermore, we have successfully extended this transition-metal-free catalytic strategy for the first time towards solvent-free cross-coupling between solid aryl halide and alkyne substrates.

Abstract
Neutral 1-boraphenalene displays the isoelectronic structure of the phenalenyl carbocation and is expected to behave as an attractive organoboron multi-redox system. However, the isolation of new redox states have remained elusive even though the preparation of neutral boron(III)-containing phenalene compounds have been extensively studied. Herein, we have adopted an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand stabilization approach to achieve the first isolation of the stable and ambipolar 1-boraphenalenyl radical 1•. The 1-boraphenalenyl cation 1+ and anion 1- have also been electrochemically observed and chemically isolated, representing new redox forms of boraphenalene for the study of non-Kekulé polynuclear benzenoid molecules. Experimental and theoretical investigations suggest that the interconvertible three-redox-state species undergo reversible electronic structure modifications, which primarily take place on the polycyclic framework of the molecules, exhibiting atypical behavior compared to known donor-stabilized organoboron compounds. Initial reactivity studies, aromaticity evaluations, and photophysical studies show redox-state-dependent trends. While 1+ is luminescent in both the solution and solid states, 1• exhibits boron-centered reactivity and 1- undergoes substitution chemistry on the boraphenalenyl skeleton and serves as a single-electron transfer reductant.

Abstract
To achieve fine regulation of FeII SCO behavior, a series of trinuclear cyanido-bridged complexes trans-[CpMen(dppe)MII(CN)]2[Fe1II(abpt)2](OTf)2 (1-4) (1, M = Fe2 and n = 1; 2, M = Fe2 and n = 4; 3, M = Fe2 and n = 5; 4, M = Ru and n = 5; CpMen = alkyl cyclopentadienyl with n = 1, 4, 5; dppe = 1,2-bis-(diphenylphosphino)ethane; abpt = 4-amino-3,5-bis-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole and OTf = CF3SO3-) were synthesized and fully characterized by using elemental analysis, X-ray crystallography, magnetic measurements, variable-temperature IR spectroscopy and Mössbauer spectroscopy. It is worth mentioning that different from many mononuclear Fe(abpt)2X2 (X = NCS, NCSe, N(CN)2, C(CN)3, (NC)2CC(OCH3)C(CN)2, (NC)2CC(OC2H5)C(CN)2, C16SO3 and Cl) complexes with more than one polymorph, only one polycrystalline form was found in complexes 1-4. Moreover, the thermally induced SCO behaviors of these four complexes are independent of intermolecular π-π interactions. The electron-donating ability of the CCN-terminal fragment of CpMen(dppe)MIICN can be flexibly regulated by changing the methyl number (n) of the cyclopentadiene ligand or metal ion type (MII). These investigations indicate that the electron-donating ability of the CCN-terminal fragment has an influence on the SCO behavior of Fe1II. The spin transition temperature (T1/2) of the complexes decreases with the increase of the electron-donating ability of the fragment CpMen(dppe)MII. This study provides a new strategy to predict and precisely regulate the behaviors of SCO complexes.

Abstract
Aromatic π-stacking is a weakly attractive, noncovalent interaction often found in biological macromolecules and synthetic supramolecular chemistry. The weak nondirectional nature of π-stacking can present challenges in the design of materials owing to their weak, nondirectional nature. However, when aromatic π-systems contain an unpaired electron, stronger attraction involving face-to-face π-orbital overlap is possible, resulting in covalent so-called "pancake" bonds. Two-electron, multicenter single pancake bonds are well known, whereas four-electron double pancake bonds are rare. Higher-order pancake bonds have been predicted, but experimental systems are unknown. Here, we show that six-electron triple pancake bonds can be synthesized by a 3-fold reduction of hexaazatrinaphthylene (HAN) and subsequent stacking of the [HAN]3- triradicals. Our analysis reveals a multicenter covalent triple pancake bond consisting of a σ-orbital and two equivalent π-orbitals. An electrostatic stabilizing role is established for the tetravalent thorium and uranium ions in these systems. We also show that the electronic absorption spectrum of the triple pancake bonds closely matches computational predictions, providing experimental verification of these unique interactions. The discovery of conductivity in thin films of triply bonded π-dimers presents new opportunities for the discovery of single-component molecular conductors and other spin-based molecular materials.

Abstract
The diradical state is an important electronic state for understanding molecular functions and should be elucidated for the in silico design of functional molecules and their application to molecular devices. The density functional theory calculation with plane-wave basis and correction of the on-site Coulomb parameter U (DFT+U/plane-wave calculation) is a good candidate of high-throughput calculations of diradical-band interactions. However, it has not been investigated in detail to what extent the DFT+U/plane-wave calculation can be used to calculate organic diradicals with a high degree of accuracy. In the present study, using typical organic diradical molecules (bisphenalenyl molecules) as model systems, the discrepancy in the optimum U values between the two electronic states (open-shell singlet and triplet) that compose the diradical state is detected. The calculated results show that the reason for this U value discrepancy is the difference in electronic delocalisation due to π-conjugation between the open-shell singlet and triplet states, and that the effect of U discrepancy becomes large as diradical character decreases. This indicates that it is necessary to investigate the U value discrepancy with reference to the calculated results by more accurate methods or to experimental values when calculating organic diradicals with low diradical character. For this investigation, the local magnetic moments, unpaired beta electron numbers, and effective magnetic exchange integral values can be used as reference values. For the effective magnetic exchange integral values, the effects of U discrepancy are partially cancelled out. However, because the effects may not be completely offset, care should be taken when using the effective magnetic exchange integral value as a reference. Furthermore, a comparison of DFT+U and hybrid-DFT calculations shows that the DFT+U underestimates the HOMO-LUMO gap of bisphenalenyls, although a qualitative discussion of the gap is possible.

Abstract
Closed-shell phenalenyl (PLY) systems are increasingly becoming more attractive as building blocks for developing promising catalysts and electroactive cathode materials, as they have tremendous potential to accept electrons and participate in redox reactions. Herein, we report a PLY-based dinuclear [FeIII2(hmbh-PLY)3] complex, 1, and its utility as a cathode material in a H2O2 fuel cell. Complex 1 was synthesized from a new Schiff base ligand, (E)-9-(2-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)hydrazineyl)-1H-phenalen-1-one, hmbh-PLYH2, designed using a PLY precursor, Hz-PLY. The newly derived ligand and complex 1 were characterized by various analytical techniques, including single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). The cyclic voltammetry (CV) study revealed that complex 1 undergoes five electron reductions under an applied electric potential. When the electroactive complex 1 was employed as a cathode in a membrane-less one-compartment H2O2 fuel cell, with Ni foam as the corresponding anode, the designed fuel cell exhibited an exceptionally high peak power density (PPD) of 2.41 mW cm-2, in comparison with those of all the previously reported Fe-based molecular complexes. DFT studies were performed to gain reasonable insights into the two-electron catalytic reduction (pathway I) of H2O2 by the Fe-center of complex 1 and to explore the geometries, energetics of the electrocatalyst, reactive intermediates and transition states.

Abstract
The analysis of the diradical state of functional open-shell molecules is important for understanding their physical properties and chemical reactivity. The diradical character is an important factor in the functional elucidation and design of open-shell molecules. In recent years, attempts have been made to immobilise functional open-shell molecules on surfaces to form devices. However, the influence of surface interactions on the diradical state remains unclear. In this study, the physisorption structures of p-benzyne, which is a typical diradical molecule, on MgO(001) and SrO(001) surfaces are used as models to investigate how the diradical character is affected by physisorption. This is done using approximate spin-projected density functional theory calculations with dispersion correction and plane-wave basis (AP-DFT-D3/plane-wave calculations). The diradical character change (Δy) due to adsorption can be categorised into three factors, namely the change due to the distortion of the diradical molecule (Δydis), the interaction between neighbouring diradical molecules (Δycoh), and molecule-surface interactions (Δysurf). In all the calculated models, physisorption reduced the diradical character (Δy < 0), and the contribution of Δysurf was the largest among the three factors. The calculated results show that adsorption induces electron delocalisation to π-conjugated orbitals and intramolecular charge polarisation, both of which contribute to reducing the occupancy of singly occupied molecular orbitals. This indicates that the diradical character of p-benzyne is reduced by the stabilisation of the resonance structures. Furthermore, geometry optimisation of the surfaces shows that the chemical-soft surface (SrO) varies the diradical character more significantly than the chemical-hard surface (MgO). This study shows that the open-shell electronic state and stack structure of diradical molecules can be controlled through the analysis of the surface diradical state.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), as a burgeoning class of crystalline porous materials, have made significant progress in their application to optoelectronic devices such as field-effect transistors, memristors, and photodetectors. However, the insoluble features of microcrystalline two-dimensional (2D) COF powders limit development of their thin film devices. Additionally, the exploration of spin transport properties in this category of π-conjugated skeleton materials remains vacant thus far. Herein, an imine-linked 2D Py-Np COF nanocrystalline powder was synthesized by Schiff base condensation of 4,4',4'',4'''-(pyrene-1,3,6,8-tetrayl)tetraaniline and naphthalene-2,6-dicarbaldehyde. Then, we prepared a large-scale free-standing Py-Np COF film via a top-down strategy of chemically assisted acid exfoliation. Moreover, high-quality COF films acted as active layers were transferred onto ferromagnetic La0.67 Sr0.33 MnO3 (LSMO) electrodes for the first attempt to fabricate organic spin valves (OSVs) based on 2D COF materials. This COF-based OSV device with a configuration of LSMO/Py-Np COF/Co/Au demonstrated a remarkable magnetoresistance (MR) value up to -26.5 % at 30 K. Meanwhile, the MR behavior of the COF-based OSVs exhibited a highly temperature dependence and operational stability. This work highlights the enormous application prospects of 2D COFs in organic spintronics and provides a promising approach for developing electronic and spintronic devices based on acid-exfoliated COF thin films.

Sci Rep 2023; 13:14032. [PMID: 37640778 PMCID: PMC10462683 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-41156-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023] Open
Abstract
The influence of 1.9 MeV proton irradiation on structural and magnetic properties has been explored in the two-dimensional (2D) NiSO4(1,3-phenylenediamine)2 coordination ferrimagnet. The X-ray powder diffraction and IR spectroscopy revealed that the octahedrons with Ni ion in the center remain unchanged regardless of the fluence a sample received. In contrast, proton irradiation greatly influences the hydrogen bonds in the flexible parts in which the 1,3-phenylenediamine is involved. Dc magnetic measurements revealed that several magnetic properties were modified with proton irradiation. The isothermal magnetization measured at T = 2.0 K varied with the proton dose, achieving a 50% increase in magnetization in the highest measured field µ0Hdc = 7 T or a 25% decrease in remanence. The most significant change was observed for the coercive field, which was reduced by 90% compared to the non-irradiated sample. The observed results are accounted for the increased freedom of magnetic moments rotation and the modification of intralayer exchange couplings.

Abstract
The advent of spintronics has undoubtedly revolutionized data storage, processing, and sensing applications. Organic semiconductors (OSCs), characterized by long spin relaxation times (>μs) and abundant spin-dependent properties, have emerged as promising materials for advanced spintronic applications. To successfully implement spin-related functions in organic spintronic devices, the four fundamental processes of spin generation, transport, manipulation, and detection form the main building blocks and are commonly in demand. Thereinto, the effective generation of spin polarization in OSCs is a precondition, but in practice, this has not been an easy task. In this context, considerable efforts have been made on this topic, covering novel materials systems, spin-dependent theories, and device fabrication technologies. In this review, we underline recent advances in external spin injection and organic property-induced spin polarization, according to the distinction between the sources of spin polarization. We focused mainly on summarizing and discussing both the physical mechanism and representative research on spin generation in OSCs, especially for various spin injection methods, organic magnetic materials, the chiral-induced spin selectivity effect, and the spinterface effect. Finally, the challenges and prospects that allow this topic to continue to be dynamic were outlined.

Abstract
An open-shell germylene 1 stabilized by a phenalenyl-based bidentate ligand was synthesized and characterized. Because of the high thermal stability originating from spin delocalization over the phenalenyl moiety, it was possible to isolate compound 1 in crystalline form by sublimation at ca. 300 °C. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra, crystallographic analysis, theoretical calculations, and reactivities with carbon radicals suggest that the spin of 1 is distributed on the phenalenyl moiety, while 1 reacted with C2Cl6, PhSSPh, and p-benzoquinone at the germanium center to form Ge-E (E = Cl, S, O) bonds. Furthermore, compound 1 is featured by its reactivity as a "formal germylyne", which allows for the formation of three new σ-bonds or one σ-bond with metal complexation on the germanium center.

Abstract
Understanding spinterfaces between magnetic metals and organic semiconductors is essential to unlock the great potentials that organic materials host for spintronic applications. Although plenty of efforts have been devoted to studying organic spintronic devices, exploring the role of metal/molecule spinterfaces at two-dimensional limit remains challenging because of excessive disorders and traps at the interfaces. Here, we demonstrate atomically smooth metal/molecule interfaces through nondestructively transferring magnetic electrodes on epitaxial grown single-crystalline layered organic films. Using such high-quality interfaces, we investigate spin injection of spin-valve devices based on organic films of different layers, in which molecules are packed in different manners. We find that the measured magnetoresistance and the estimated spin polarization increase markedly for bilayer devices compared with their monolayer counterparts. These observations reveal the key role of molecular packing on spin polarization, which is supported by density functional theory calculations. Our findings provide promising routes toward designing spinterfaces for organic spintronic devices.

Abstract
Phenalenyl (C13H9) is the smallest triangular unit of a graphene nanosheet, and has been experimentally verified to be stable in radical (C13H9˙), cationic (C13H9+), and anionic (C13H9-) states. All these three species feature high symmetry and stability as well as delocalized π electrons, a visible sign of aromaticity, but their aromatic origin remains a challenge. This work reports new chemical insights into the π electrons of C13H9+/0/- and deciphers their aromaticity using a recently emerged two-dimensional (2D) superatomic-molecule theory. 12π-C13H9+, 13π-C13H9˙, and 14π-C13H9- are seen as triangular 2D superatomic molecules ◊O3, ◊O3-, and ◊O32-, respectively, where ◊O denotes a 2D benzenoid superatom bearing 4 π electrons. Visualized superatomic Lewis structures show that each ◊O can dynamically adjust its π electrons to satisfy the superatomic sextet rule of benzene via superatomic lone pairs and covalent bonds. C13H9+/0/- are representatives of adaptive aromaticity in the 2D superatomic-molecule system, exhibiting flexible π electronic structures to achieve shell-closure. Moreover, we specially adopt a progressive methodology to study the evolution of 2D periodic materials, by applying this theory to the similar family of C6H3N7, C18H6N22 and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) crystals, and meanwhile accounting for the special stability of g-C3N4. This work enriches 2D superatomic bonding chemistry and provides a useful strategy to design new 2D functional nanostructured materials.

Abstract
We herein report a novel square-planar complex [CoIIL], which was synthesized using the electronically interesting phenalenyl-derived ligand LH2 = 9,9'-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(azanediyl))bis(1H-phenalen-1-one). The molecular structure of the complex is confirmed with the help of the single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique. [CoIIL] is a mononuclear complex where the Co(II) ion is present in the square-planar geometry coordinated by the chelating bis-phenalenone ligand. The solid-state packing of [CoIIL] complex in a crystal structure has been explained with the help of supramolecular studies, which revealed that the π···π stacking present in the [CoIIL] complex is analogous to the one present in tetrathiafulvalene/tetracyanoquinodimethane charge transfer salt, well-known materials for their unique charge carrier interfaces. The [CoIIL] complex was employed as the active material to fabricate a resistive switching memory device, indium tin oxide/CoIIL/Al, and characterized using the write-read-erase-read cycle. The device has interestingly shown a stable and reproducible switching between two different resistance states for more than 2000 s. Observed bistable resistive states of the device have been explained by corroborating the electrochemical characterizations and density functional theory studies, where the role of the CoII metal center and π-conjugated phenalenyl backbone in the redox-resistive switching mechanism is proposed.

Abstract
Solid-state radical generation is an attractive but underutilized methodology in the catalytic strong bond activation process, such as the aryl-halide bond. Traditionally, such a process of strong bond activation relied upon the use of transition metal complexes or strongly reducing photocatalysts in organic solvents. The generation of the aryl radical from aryl halides in the absence of transition-metal or external stimuli, such as light or cathodic current, remains an elusive process. In this study, we describe a reduced organic hydrocarbon, which can act as a super reductant in the solid state to activate strong bonds by solid-state single electron transfer (SSSET) under the influence of mechanical energy leading to a catalytic strategy based on the mechano-SSSET or mechanoredox process. Here, we investigate the solid-state synthesis of the super electron donor phenalenyl anion in a ball mill and its application as an active catalyst in strong bond (aryl halide) activation. Aryl radicals generated from aryl halides by employing this strategy are competent for various carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions under solvent-free and transition metal-free conditions. We illustrate this approach for partially soluble or insoluble polyaromatic arenes in accomplishing solid-solid C-C cross-coupling catalysis, which is otherwise difficult to achieve by traditional methods using solvents.

Abstract
Spintronics, a new discipline focusing on the spin-dependent transport process of electrons, has been developing rapidly. Spin valves are the most significant carriers of spintronics utilizing the spin freedom of electrons. It is expected to pierce "Moore's Law" and become the core component in processors of the next generation. Organic semiconductors advance in their adjustable band gap, weak spin-orbit coupling and hyperfine interaction, excellent film-forming property, having enormous promise for spin valves. Here, the principle of spin valves is introduced, and the history and progress in organic spin injection and transport materials are summarized. Then we analyze the influence of spinterface on device performance and introduce reliable methods of constructing organic spin valves. Finally, the challenges for spin valves are discussed, and the future is proposed. We aim to draw the attention of researchers to organic spin valves and promote further research in spintronics through this paper.

Abstract
Herein, the first stable anions K[SIPrBp ] (4 a-K) and K[IPrBp ] (4 b-K) (SIPrBp =BpC{N(Dipp)CH2 }2 , IPrBp =BpC{N(Dipp)CH}2 ; Bp=4-PhC6 H4 ; Dipp=2,6-iPr2 C6 H3 ) derived from classical N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) (i.e. SIPr and IPr) have been isolated as violet crystalline solids. 4 a-K and 4 b-K are prepared by KC8 reduction of the neutral radicals [SIPrBp ] (3 a) and [IPrBp ] (3 b), respectively. The radicals 3 a and 3 b as well as [Me-IPrBp ] 3 c (Me-IPrBp =BpC{N(Dipp)CMe}2 ) are accessible as crystalline solids on treatment of the respective 1,3-imidazoli(ni)um bromides (SIPrBp )Br (2 a), (IPrBp )Br (2 b), and (Me-IPrBp )Br (2 c) with KC8 . The cyclic voltammograms of 2 a-2 c exhibit two one-electron reversible redox processes in -0.5 to -2.5 V region that correspond to the radicals 3 a-3 c and the anions (4 a-4 c)- . Computational calculations suggest a closed-shell singlet ground state for (4 a-4 c)- with the singlet-triplet energy gap of 17-24 kcal mol-1 .

Abstract
Two new series of air stable compounds of cAACX = fluorene/indene (X = Me2 , Et2 , Cy) [cAAC = cyclic (alkyl) amino carbene] have been isolated and well characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction, photoluminescence, cyclic voltammogram (CV) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies. Fluorescence studies reveals green light emission of cAAC bonded fluorene, whereas free fluorene generally displays a violet emission. Interestingly, the sterically crowded cAAC-fluorene analogue display solvatochromism and CF3 CO2 H sensing in solution. CV of the these compounds show a quasi-reversible electron transfer process, indicating the functionalization of fluorene/indene with radical anionic form of carbene, confirmed by CV/EPR measurements. DFT/TDDFT calculations and energy decomposition analysis coupled with natural orbital for chemical valence (EDA-NOCV) have been carried out to study different aspects of bonding and electronic transitions. Such a class of redox active and thermally stable organic molecules may be suitable for molecule based spin memory devices in future.

Abstract
Spin-resolved momentum microscopy and theoretical calculations are combined beyond the one-electron approximation to unveil the spin-dependent electronic structure of the interface formed between iron (Fe) and an ordered oxygen (O) atomic layer, and an adsorbate-induced enhancement of electronic correlations is found. It is demonstrated that this enhancement is responsible for a drastic narrowing of the Fe d-bands close to the Fermi energy (EF ) and a reduction of the exchange splitting, which is not accounted for in the Stoner picture of ferromagnetism. In addition, correlation leads to a significant spin-dependent broadening of the electronic bands at higher binding energies and their merging with satellite features, which are manifestations of a pure many-electron behavior. Overall, adatom adsorption can be used to vary the material parameters of transition metal surfaces to access different intermediate electronic correlated regimes, which will otherwise not be accessible. The results show that the concepts developed to understand the physics and chemistry of adsorbate-metal interfaces, relevant for a variety of research areas, from spintronics to catalysis, need to be reconsidered with many-particle effects being of utmost importance. These may affect chemisorption energy, spin transport, magnetic order, and even play a key role in the emergence of ferromagnetism at interfaces between non-magnetic systems.

Abstract
We demonstrate that an in situ generated di-reduced phenalenyl (PLY) species accumulates sufficiently high energy and acts as a super electron donor to generate aryl radicals from aryl halides to accomplish Buchwald-Hartwig-type C-N cross-coupling reactions at room temperature. This catalytic protocol does not require any external stimuli such as heat, light, or cathodic current. This protocol shows a wide variety of substrate scope covering different genres of aryl and heteroaryl halides with various aromatic as well as aliphatic amines and late-stage functionalization of the well-known natural products. The control experiments, along with extensive density functional theory (DFT) calculations, unveil that the aryl radical is generated by a single electron transfer from the di-reduced PLY to the aryl halide substrate. The aryl radical acts as an electrophile and binds with amine, leading to the chemically driven radical-mediated C-N cross-coupling under transition-metal-free conditions.

Abstract
Using multistable mechanical metamaterials to develop deployable structures, electrical devices, and mechanical memories raises two unanswered questions. First, can mechanical instability be programmed to design sensors and memory devices? Second, how can mechanical properties be tuned at the post-fabrication stage via external stimuli? Answering these questions requires a thorough understanding of the snapping sequences and variations of the elastic energy in multistable metamaterials. The mechanics of deformation sequences and continuous force/energy-displacement curves are comprehensively unveiled here. A 1D array, that is chain, of bistable cells is studied to explore instability-induced energy release and snapping sequences under one external mechanical stimulus. This method offers an insight into the programmability of multistable chains, which is exploited to fabricate a mechanical sensor/memory with sampling (analog to digital-A/D) and data reconstruction (digital to analog-D/A) functionalities operating based on the correlation between the deformation sequence and the mechanical input. The findings offer a new paradigm for developing programmable high-capacity read-write mechanical memories regardless of thei size scale. Furthermore, exotic mechanical properties can be tuned by harnessing the attained programmability of multistable chains. In this respect, a transversely multistable mechanical metamaterial with tensegrity-like bistable cells is designed to showcase the tunability of chirality.

Abstract
Achieving electrically and/or electrochemically controlled circularly polarized photoluminescence (CPL) is challenging due to the non-electroactive characteristics of most chiral materials and the non-electrosensitive feature of materials' chiroptical signals. Here we found that the CPL of self-assembled conducting polyaniline (PANI) helical microfibers could be reversibly switched by applying an alternating electrical bias. The conducting polymer is not the fluorophore but can transfer its chirality to the coassembled aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorescent molecules. The electrochemically switchable CPL is derived from the reversible transformation of the chirality of the polyaniline microfibers, which is probably due to the change in the molecular interchain distance upon doping/dedoping. Subsequently, we have demonstrated double-layer information encryption based on the electrochemically reversible CPL and conductance.

Abstract
Magnetic molecules on surfaces have been widely investigated to reveal delicate interfacial couplings and for potential technological applications. In these endeavors, one prevailing challenge is how to preserve or recover the molecular spins, especially on highly metallic substrates that can readily quench the magnetic moments of the admolecules. Here, we use scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy to exploit the semimetallic nature of antimony and observe, surprisingly yet pleasantly, that the spin of Co-phthalocyanine is well preserved on Sb(111), as unambiguously evidenced by the emergent strong Kondo resonance across the molecule. Our first-principles calculations further confirm that the optimal density of states near the Fermi level of the semimetal is a decisive factor, weakening the overall interfacial coupling, while still ensuring sufficiently effective electron-spin scattering in the many-body system. Beyond isolated admolecules, we discover that each of the magnetic moments in a molecular dimer or a densely packed island is distinctly preserved as well, rendering such molecular magnets immense potentials for ultrahigh density memory devices.

Abstract
Single-molecule optoelectronic devices promise a potential solution for miniaturization and functionalization of silicon-based microelectronic circuits in the future. For decades of its fast development, this field has made significant progress in the synthesis of optoelectronic materials, the fabrication of single-molecule devices and the realization of optoelectronic functions. On the other hand, single-molecule optoelectronic devices offer a reliable platform to investigate the intrinsic physical phenomena and regulation rules of matters at the single-molecule level. To further realize and regulate the optoelectronic functions toward practical applications, it is necessary to clarify the intrinsic physical mechanisms of single-molecule optoelectronic nanodevices. Here, we provide a timely review to survey the physical phenomena and laws involved in single-molecule optoelectronic materials and devices, including charge effects, spin effects, exciton effects, vibronic effects, structural and orbital effects. In particular, we will systematically summarize the basics of molecular optoelectronic materials, and the physical effects and manipulations of single-molecule optoelectronic nanodevices. In addition, fundamentals of single-molecule electronics, which are basic of single-molecule optoelectronics, can also be found in this review. At last, we tend to focus the discussion on the opportunities and challenges arising in the field of single-molecule optoelectronics, and propose further potential breakthroughs.

Abstract
From macroscopic heavy-duty permanent magnets to nanodevices, the precise control of the magnetic properties in rare-earth metals is crucial for many applications used in our daily life. Therefore, a detailed understanding and manipulation of the 4f-metals' magnetic properties are key to further boosting the functionalization and efficiency of future applications. We present a proof-of-concept approach consisting of a dysprosium-iridium surface alloy in which graphene adsorption allows us to tailor its magnetic properties. By adsorbing graphene onto a long-range ordered two-dimensional dysprosium-iridium surface alloy, the magnetic 4f-metal atoms are selectively lifted from the surface alloy. This selective skyhook effect introduces a giant magnetic anisotropy in dysprosium atoms as a result of manipulating its geometrical structure within the surface alloy. Introducing and proving this concept by our combined theoretical and experimental approach provides an easy and unambiguous understanding of its underlying mechanism. Our study sets the ground for an alternative path on how to modify the crystal field around 4f-atoms and therefore their magnetic anisotropies.

Abstract
Phenalenyl, a zigzag-edged odd alternant hydrocarbon unit can be found in the graphene nanosheet. Hückel molecular orbital calculations indicate the presence of a nonbonding molecular orbital (NBMO), which originates from the linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) arising from 13 carbon atoms of the phenalenyl molecule. Three redox states (cationic, neutral radical, and anionic) of the phenalenyl-based molecules were attributed to the presence of this NBMO. The cationic state can undergo two consecutive reductions to result in neutral radical and anionic states, stepwise, respectively. The phenalenyl-based radicals were found as crucial building blocks and attracted the attention of various research fields such as organic synthesis, material science, computation, and device physics. From 2012 onward, a strategy was devised using the cationic state of phenalenyl-based molecules and in situ generated phenalenyl radicals, which created a new domain of catalysis. The in situ generated phenalenyl radicals were utilized for the single electron transfer (SET) process resulting in redox catalysis. This emerging range of applications rejuvenates the more than six decades-old phenalenyl chemistry. This review captures such developments ranging from fundamental understanding to multidirectional applications of phenalenyl-based radicals.

Abstract
The exfoliation of layered magnetic materials generates atomically thin flakes characterized by an ultrahigh surface sensitivity, which makes their magnetic properties tunable via external stimuli, such as electrostatic gating and proximity effects. Another powerful approach to engineer magnetic materials is molecular functionalization, generating hybrid interfaces with tailored magnetic interactions, called spinterfaces. However, spinterface effects have not yet been explored on layered magnetic materials. Here, the emergence of spinterface effects is demonstrated at the interface between flakes of the prototypical layered magnetic metal Fe3 GeTe2 and thin films of Co-phthalocyanine. Magnetotransport measurements show that the molecular layer induces a magnetic exchange bias in Fe3 GeTe2 , indicating that the unpaired spins in Co-phthalocyanine develop antiferromagnetic ordering and pin the magnetization reversal of Fe3 GeTe2 via magnetic proximity. The effect is strongest for a Fe3 GeTe2 thickness of 20 nm, for which the exchange bias field reaches -840 Oe at 10 K and is measurable up to ≈110 K. This value compares very favorably with previous exchange bias fields reported for Fe3 GeTe2 in all-inorganic van der Waals heterostructures, demonstrating the potential of molecular functionalization to tailor the magnetism of van der Waals layered materials.

Abstract
Phenalenyl (PLY)-based metal complexes are a new addition to the metal complex family. Various applications of metal-based phenalenyl complexes (metal-PLY) have been reported, such as catalyst, quantum spin simulators, spin electronic devices, and molecular conductors, but the biological significance of metal-PLY (metal = Co(II), Mn(III), Ni(II), Fe(III), and Al(III)) systems has yet to be explored. In this study, the anticancer properties of such complexes were investigated in ovarian cancer cells (SKOV3 and HEY A8), and the cytotoxicity was comparable to that of other platinum-based drugs. Antibacterial activity of the metal-PLY complexes against both gram-negative (E. coli) and gram-positive (S. aureus) bacteria was studied using a disk diffusion test and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) methods. All five metal-PLY complexes showed significant antibacterial activity against both bacterial strains. The antioxidant properties of metal-PLY complexes were evaluated following the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging method and were acceptable. The DNA-binding properties of these metal-PLY complexes were investigated using absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, viscosity measurements, and thermal denaturation methods. Experimental evidence revealed that the complexes bind to DNA through intercalation, and the molecular docking study supported this conclusion.

Abstract
From the sodium sodate precursor [(Na(thf)6][Na{(4-Me-NCOC6H3)2CH}2] (1) three isostructural dinuclear lanthanide complexes [(μ-Cl)LnIII{(4-MeNCOC6H3)2CH}2]2 with Ln = Gd (2), Dy (3), and Er (4) based on the N,N'-chelating monoanionic bis(4-methylbenzoxazol-2-yl)methanide ligand (titled "Mebox") were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The sodium precursor 1 was analyzed via X-ray diffraction and diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy experiments (DOSY-NMR) in order to investigate its aggregation in solution and the solid state. The sodium analog [(thf)3Na(NCOC6H4)2CH] (1') based on the bis(benzoxazol-2-yl)-methanide ligand (titled "box") was prepared and analyzed for comparison reasons. From the lanthanide derivatives 2-4, the DyIII complex 3 displays slow relaxation of magnetization at zero field, with a relaxation barrier of U = 315.7 cm-1. The coupling strength between the two lanthanide centers was estimated with the GdIII equivalent 2, giving a weak antiferromagnetic coupling of J = -0.035 cm-1.

The corresponding potassium (1) and sodium (2–4) based cages are characterized through XRD and NMR experiments. Preventing lithium chloride co‐complexation led to a significant increase of SMM performance to previously reported sulfur‐nitrogen ligands. The subsequent DyIII‐complexes 5 and 6 display slow relaxation of magnetization at zero field, with relaxation barriers U=77.0 cm−1 for 5, 512.9 and 316.3 cm−1 for 6, respectively. Significantly, the latter complex 6 also exhibits a butterfly‐shaped hysteresis up to 7 K.

Abstract
The advent of d-d type complex salts for designing smart functional materials with versatile utility inspired us to develop a novel type of M(II)-Ce(IV) complex salts [M(II) = Cu and Zn ions]. In this study, we present for the first time a holistic approach to design and prepare metal complex salts of the novel hybrid d-f block type, [Cu(bpy)2]2[Ce(NO3)6]2 (1), [Cu(phen)2(NO3)]2[Ce(NO3)6](HNO3) (2), [Zn(bpy)2(NO3)][ClO4] (3), and [Zn(phen)2(NO3)]2 [Ce(NO3)6] (4); [bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline]. The intrinsic structural and morphological properties of the compounds have been revealed by employing a suite of analytical and spectroscopic methods. X-ray structural analysis reveals that the copper(II) centres in the cationic complex units of 1 and 2 adopt a highly distorted tetrahedral and a rare bicapped square pyramidal coordination geometry, respectively. The zinc(II) ions in both 3 and 4 adopt the rare bicapped square pyramidal geometry while the cerium(IV) ions in 1, 2 and 4 exist in a dodecahedral geometry. Investigation of supramolecular interactions reveals that intermolecular O⋯H and O⋯π short contacts bind the complex units in 1, while predominant π⋯π interactions, along with O⋯H and O⋯π short contacts, produce the binding force among the complex units in 2. We further employed the complex salts (1-4) to construct Schottky devices to reveal the role of these new complex salts in the charge-transport phenomenon. The carrier mobilities (μ) for salts 1-4 were determined to be 1.76 × 10-6, 9.02 × 10-6, 1.86 × 10-8, and 4.31 × 10-8 m2 V-1 s-1, with respective transit times (τ) of 439, 85, 4.17 × 103, and 1.79 × 103 ns, which suggest that complex salt 2 is the best candidate with the highest transport properties among all the complex salts. A crystal engineering perspective sheds light on the charge-transport properties of the complex salts, emphasizing the attribution of the best performance of 2 to its predominant π⋯π interactions. The synthesis of this new type of complex salts, their physicochemical properties and their charge-transport applications envisage great promise for the development of novel crystalline materials with smart functionalities.

Abstract
Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) harbour vast opportunities for potential pioneering applications upon optimization like big data storage and quantum computing. Lanthanides were found to be highly suitable candidates in the design of such molecules, as they intrinsically hold a large unquenched orbital momentum and a strong spin-orbit coupling, warranting a high magnetic anisotropy. An indispensable element in successfully tailoring SMMs is the ligand design. Polyimido sulfur ligands offer a promising choice because the polar S+-N--bond facilitates both electronic and geometric adaptability to various f-metals. In particular, the acute N-Ln-N bite angle generates advantageous magnetic properties. The [Ph2PCH2S(NtBu)3]- anion, introduced from [(thf)3K{Ph2PCH2S(NtBu)3}] (2) to a series of complexes [ClLn{Ph2PCH2S(NtBu)3}2] with Ln = Tb (3a), Dy (3b), Er (3c), Ho (3d), and Lu (3e), provides tripodal shielding of the metal's hemisphere as well as a side-arm donation of a soft phosphorus atom. For the Tb and Er complexes 3a and 3d, slow magnetic relaxation (Ueff = 235 and 34.5 cm-1, respectively) was only observed under an applied dc field. The dysprosium congener 3b, however, is a true SMM with relaxation at zero field (Ueff = 66 cm-1) and showing a butterfly hysteresis close to 3.5 K. Upon magnetic dilution with the diamagnetic and isostructural lutetium complex 3e or application of a magnetic field, the energy barrier to spin reversal is increased to 74 cm-1.

Abstract
Two-dimensional materials (2DMs) have attracted tremendous research interest over the last two decades. Their unique optical, electronic, thermal, and mechanical properties make 2DMs key building blocks for the fabrication of novel complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) and beyond-CMOS devices. Major advances in device functionality and performance have been made by the covalent or noncovalent functionalization of 2DMs with molecules: while the molecular coating of metal electrodes and dielectrics allows for more efficient charge injection and transport through the 2DMs, the combination of dynamic molecular systems, capable to respond to external stimuli, with 2DMs makes it possible to generate hybrid systems possessing new properties by realizing stimuli-responsive functional devices and thereby enabling functional diversification in More-than-Moore technologies. In this review, we first introduce emerging 2DMs, various classes of (macro)molecules, and molecular switches and discuss their relevant properties. We then turn to 2DM/molecule hybrid systems and the various physical and chemical strategies used to synthesize them. Next, we discuss the use of molecules and assemblies thereof to boost the performance of 2D transistors for CMOS applications and to impart diverse functionalities in beyond-CMOS devices. Finally, we present the challenges, opportunities, and long-term perspectives in this technologically promising field.

Abstract
Two series a and b of 3d metal based complexes 1-4 [MII{(4-R-NCOC6H4)2CH}2], (with M = Mn (1), Fe (2), Co (3), Ni (4) and R = H (a) or Me (b)) were synthesised and structurally characterized. The complexes were found to crystallize differently depending on the dication ionic radius and the ligand substitution. All complexes showed remarkable X-ray diffraction resolution that will allow further advanced diffraction experiments. Subsequently, their spectroscopic and magnetic properties were analysed. Complexes 3a and 3b notably show slow magnetic relaxation of their magnetization and represent simple model systems relaxing through a phonon-bottleneck process (3a) or as a field-induced single-molecule magnet (3b, Ueff = 45.0 cm-1). Remarkably, the magnetic anisotropy in the manganese complex 1b results in induced slow magnetic relaxation. The influence of the dual 4-methylation of the ligands was investigated and found to generate important variations in the physical features of the corresponding complexes. Accessible via one-pot synthesis, these are highly robust against oxidation and moisture. Through smart ligand engineering, they represent stable and tuneable compounds for benchmarking purposes through standard and less-standard characterization methods.

Abstract
The phenomenon of single molecule magnet (SMM) behavior of mixed valent Mn12 coordination clusters of general formula [MnIII8MnIV4O12(RCOO)16(H2O)4] had been exemplified by bulk samples of the archetypal [MnIII8MnIV4O12(CH3COO)16(H2O)4] (4) molecule, and the molecular origin of the observed magnetic behavior has found support from extensive studies on the Mn12 system within crystalline material or on molecules attached to a variety of surfaces. Here we report the magnetic signature of the isolated cationic species [Mn12O12(CH3COO)15(CH3CN)]+(1) by gas phase X‐ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) spectroscopy, and we find it closely resembling that of the corresponding bulk samples. Furthermore, we report broken symmetry DFT calculations of spin densities and single ion tensors of the isolated, optimized complexes [Mn12O12(CH3COO)15(CH3CN)]+(1), [Mn12O12(CH3COO)16] (2), [Mn12O12(CH3COO)16(H2O)4] (3), and the complex in bulk geometry [MnIII8MnIV4O12(CH3COO)16(H2O)4] (5). The found magnetic fingerprints – experiment and theory alike – are of a remarkable robustness: The MnIV4 core bears almost no magnetic anisotropy while the surrounding MnIII8 ring is highly anisotropic. These signatures are truly intrinsic properties of the Mn12 core scaffold within all of these complexes and largely void of the environment. This likely holds irrespective of bulk packing effects.

Abstract
Chemical indices are effective tools for examining the functions and reactivities of stable radical species. In this study, we formulated an approximation to estimate chemical indices using electron density. Theoretical investigations using the developed scheme revealed that surface interactions can tune chemical indices and that the diradical character was enhanced by weak adsorption onto ionic solids with charge-dipole interactions.
