Pyridine moiety-appended doubly bridged cyclotricatechylene (CTC(Py)2(OH)2) was synthesized and characterized. Solid state studies show that CTC(Py)2(OH)2 forms a capsular assembly in the presence of water but a polymeric assembly in its absence.

<p>This work reports a computational analysis of hydrogen bonded clusters of mono-, di-, tri- and tetra hydrates of the chlorohydrins CH<sub>3</sub>CHClOH (1ClEtOH) and CH<sub>2</sub>ClCH<sub>2</sub>OH (2ClEtOH). The goal of the study is to assess the role of the water solvent into the facilitation of the initial step for dehalogenation of these compounds, a process of interest in several contexts. Molecular orbital methods (MP2), density functional methods (B3LYP, M06 and wB97X-D) and composite model chemistries (CBS-QB3, G4) were employed to investigate the structure, electronic distribution and hydrogen-bonded structure of 7 monohydrates, 6 dihydrates, 5 trihydrates and 5 tetrahydrates of both species. Standard reaction enthalpy and standard Gibbs free reaction energy were computed for all aggregates with respect to <b><i>n</i></b> independent water molecules and with respect to the dimer, trimer and tetramer of water, respectively, in order to evaluate stability and hydrogen bonding network. The influence of the water chains on the length and vibrational frequencies, especially of the C-Cl and O-H bonds, was evaluated.</p>

The design and preparation of chiral metal–organic frameworks (CMOFs) from achiral ligands are a big challenge. Using 3-nitro-4-(pyridin-4-yl)benzoic acid (HL) as a new linker, a total of eight chiral lanthanide–organic frameworks (LOFs), namely poly[diaquatris[μ2-3-nitro-4-(pyridin-4-yl)benzoato-κ2 O:O′]lanthanide(III)], L- and D-[Ln(C12H7N2O4)3(H2O)2] n [(1), Ln = Eu; (2), Ln = Gd; (3), Ln = Dy; (4), Ln = Tb], were hydrothermally synthesized without chiral reagents and determined by X-ray crystallography. Crystal structure analyses show that L-(1)–(4) crystallize in the hexagonal P65 space group and are isomorphous and isostructural, while the enantiomers D-(1)–(4) crystallize in the hexagonal P61 space group. All LnIII ions are octacoordinated by six carboxyl O atoms of six 3-nitro-4-(pyridin-4-yl)benzoate ligands and two water molecules in a dodecahedral geometry. A one-dimensional neutral helical [Ln2(CO2)3] n chain is observed in (1)–(4) as a chiral origin. These helical chains are further interconnected via directional hydrogen-bonding interactions between pyridyl groups and water molecules to construct a three-dimensional (3D) homochiral network with hex topology. The present CMOF structure is the first chiral 3D hydrogen-bonded hex-net and shows good water stability. Solid-state circular dichroism (CD) signals revealed that (1)–(4) crystallized through spontaneous resolution. Furthermore, (1) and (4) display a strong red and green photoluminescence at room temperature, respectively, but their intensities reduce to almost half at 200 °C. Notably, upon excitation under visible light (463 nm), a circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) of (1) in the solid state is observed for the first time, with a g lum value of 2.61 × 10−2.

The title compounds are shown to exist in solution and in the solid state as 4H-tautomers. X-Ray crystal structure determinations show that 1,3-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-one exists as a dimeric pair of strongly hydrogen-bonded molecules and that 3-phenyl-1-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4- triazol-5-one exists as the 4H-tautomer stabilized by a complex network of hydrogen bonding to water molecules.
