Evolution of structure and spectroscopic properties of a new 1,3-diacetylpyrene polymorph with temperature and pressure

A new polymorph of 1,3-diacetylpyrene has been obtained from its melt and thoroughly characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction, steady-state UV–Vis spectroscopy and periodic density functional theory calculations. Experimental studies covered the temperature range from 90 to 390 K and the pressure range from atmospheric to 4.08 GPa. Optimal sample placement in a diamond anvil cell according to our previously presented methodology ensured over 80% data coverage up to 0.8 Å for a monoclinic sample. Unrestrained Hirshfeld atom refinement of the high-pressure crystal structures was successful and anharmonic behavior of carbonyl oxygen atoms was observed. Unlike the previously characterized polymorph, the structure of 2°AP-β is based on infinite π-stacks of antiparallel 2°AP molecules. 2°AP-β displays piezochromism and piezofluorochromism which are directly related to the variation in interplanar distances within the π-stacking. The importance of weak intermolecular interactions is reflected in the substantial negative thermal expansion coefficient of -55.8 (57) MK -1 in the direction of C—H∙∙∙O interactions.

Structural relaxation and crystallization in supercooled water from 170 to 260 K

The structural relaxation and crystallization of deeply supercooled water are investigated in transiently-heated nanoscale water films using infrared spectroscopy for temperatures between 170 and 260 K. For temperatures above ~230 K, the relaxation kinetics can be fit with a simple exponential decay which is characteristic of normal liquids. At lower temperatures, increasingly non-exponential decay is observed indicating the onset of heterogeneous dynamics. Water’s relaxation rate depends on its initial structure with hyper-quenched glassy water (HQW) typically relaxing more quickly than low-density amorphous solid water (LDA). At all temperatures, the relaxation time, trel is faster than the crystallization time, txtal. For HQW, the ratio, txtal/trel, goes through a minimum at ~198 K where it is about 60. The research was designed and supervised by GAK and BDK. LK and WAT conducted the experiments and analyzed the data. LK and GAK wrote the manuscript, with input from all authors.

The influence of LiH and TiH 2 on hydrogen storage in MgB 2 I: Promotion of bulk hydrogenation at reduced temperature

Mg(BH 4 ) 2 is an attractive hydrogen storage material, owing to its high gravimetric capacity of 14.9 wt %. However, the dehydrogenated material MgB 2 is very difficult to rehydrogenate, requiring excessive pressures and temperatures. Here we report the influence of LiH and TiH 2 on hydrogen storage reactions involving Bulk MgB 2 using XRD, XAS, FTIR and NMR. In ball-milled mixtures of LiH/MgB 2 , the LiH loses crystallinity but remains undissociated, forming a weakly bound complex with MgB 2 . The weak interactions produce minor variations in the local electronic structure at B and Mg, but do not markedly affect the underlying MgB 2 hexagonal crystal structure. No evidence is found for a mixed-metal boride Mg 1-x Li x B 2 in the as-prepared LiH/MgB 2 materials. The presence of LiH dramatically improves the hydrogenation of MgB 2 at 700 bar, forming borohydride 100 °C below the minimum hydrogenation temperature of pure MgB 2 and without the formation of undesirable intermediates such as [B 3 H 8 ] - , [B 10 H 10 ] 2- or [B 12 H 12 ] 2- . Evidence is reported for a mixed-metal borohydride of the type Mg (3-x)/2 Li x (BH 4 ) 3 produced by the hydrogenation. Subsequent desorption is also improved compared to pure Mg(BH 4 ) 2 and LiBH 4 , showing single-step hydrogen release up to ~8 wt% by 380 °C, whereas Mg(BH 4 ) 2 and LiBH 4 still retain significant amounts of hydrogen at this temperature. The material produced by desorption contains both MgB 2 and Mg metal, revealing the original LiH/MgB 2 system is not fully reversible. In contrast to LiH, TiH 2 is essentially inert when ball-milled with MgB 2 , and high-pressure hydrogenation leaves only unreacted TiH 2 and MgB 2 . Thus, added TiH 2 provides no benefit to MgB 2 hydrogenation.

Molecular mechanism of biased signaling at the kappa opioid receptor

The κ-opioid receptor (KOR) has emerged as an attractive drug target for pain management without addiction, and biased signaling through particular pathways of KOR may be key to maintaining this benefit while minimizing side-effect liabilities. As for most G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), however, the molecular mechanisms of ligand-specific signaling at KOR have remained unclear. To better understand the molecular determinants of KOR signaling bias, we apply structure determination, atomic-level molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and functional assays. We determine a crystal structure of KOR bound to the G protein-biased agonist nalfurafine, the first approved KOR-targeting drug. We also identify an arrestin-biased KOR agonist, WMS-X600. Using MD simulations of KOR bound to nalfurafine, WMS-X600, and a balanced agonist U50,488, we identify three active-state receptor conformations, including one that appears to favor arrestin signaling over G protein signaling and another that appears to favor G protein signaling over arrestin signaling. These results, combined with mutagenesis validation, provide a molecular explanation of how agonists achieve biased signaling at KOR.

Structure of an anti-PEG antibody reveals an open ring that captures highly flexible PEG polymers

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a polymer routinely used to modify biologics and nanoparticles to prolong blood circulation and reduce immunogenicity of the underlying therapeutic. However, several PEGylated therapeutics induce the development of anti-PEG antibodies (APA), leading to reduced efficacy and increased adverse events. Given the highly flexible structure of PEG, how APA specifically bind PEG remains poorly understood. Here, we report a crystal structure illustrating the structural properties and conformation of the APA 6-3 Fab bound to the backbone of PEG. The structure reveals an open ring-like sub-structure in the Fab paratope, whereby PEG backbone is captured and then stabilized via Van der Waals interactions along the interior and exterior of the ring paratope surface. Our finding illustrates a strategy by which antibodies can bind highly flexible repeated structures that lack fixed conformations, such as polymers. This also substantially advances our understanding of the humoral immune response generated against PEG.

A comprehensive ARPES study on the type-II Dirac semimetal candidate Ir 1-x Pt x Te 2

The transition metal dichalcogenide Ir 1-x Pt x Te 2 displays both superconductivity and a topological band structure. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we obtain a comprehensive understanding of the three-dimensional electronic structure in the normal state of Ir 1-x Pt x Te 2 for doping levels from x = 0.1 to 0.4, which spans the composition range of a superconducting state to a non-superconducting state. Many features of the electronic structure can be attributed to strong Te–Te interactions between the layers of the layered crystal structure and can be resolved by photon energy dependent measurements. We demonstrate that the type-II Dirac fermions can be successfully tuned via Pt doping, where the Dirac point lies close to the Fermi level for x = 0.1. The band evolution vs doping provides a clearer understanding of the relationship between the superconductivity and electronic structure. In addition, the β band in the superconducting samples locates the system close to a type-II van Hove singularity, where spin triplet paring symmetry has been predicted. Our results provide a comprehensive understanding of the band structure of Ir 1-x Pt x Te 2 , and we discuss the possibilities of the existence of topological superconductivity in this system.

Designing Nuclear Fuels with a Multi-Principal Element Alloying Approach

Previous research has shown that multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) using chromium, molybdenum, niobium, tantalum, titanium, vanadium, and zirconium can form stable body-centered-cubic (BCC) structures across a large temperature region (25°C to 1000°C). This is the same crystal structure as γ-uranium (U), which has shown desirable thermal and irradiation behavior in previous alloy fuel research. It is hypothesized then that the MPEA alloying approach can be used to produce a stable BCC uranium-bearing alloy and to retain its stability throughout anticipated operating regimes of power-producing reactors. Candidate elements were assessed using Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) analysis to determine uranium densities necessary to make the alloy an economically viable fuel compared to conventional fuel forms. Following neutronic considerations, materials property databases and empirical predictors were used to determine the compositions with a high potential to form a BCC solid solution alloy. The final four alloys were MoNbTaU 2 , MoNbTiU 2 , NbTaTiU 2 , and NbTaVU 2 , which were cast using arc melting of raw elemental foils and chunks. Characterization of the fabricated alloys included scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed a two-phase system with a U-rich matrix phase surrounding the refractory precipitates. The U phase was found to contain varying concentrations of the alloying elements and was a BCC γ-U phase. These results warrant further research to identify ideal compositions for use as an advanced alloy fuel.

Second-order nonlinear optical and linear ultraviolet-visible absorption properties of the type-II multiferroic candidates RbFe( A O 4 ) 2 ( A = Mo, Se, S)

Motivated by the search for type-II multiferroics, in this work, we present a comprehensive optical study of a complex oxide family of type-II multiferroic candidates: RbFe(MoO 4 ) 2 , RbFe(SeO 4 ) 2 , and RbFe(SO 4 ) 2 .We employ rotationalanisotropy second harmonic generation spectroscopy (RA SHG), a technique sensitive to point symmetries, to address discrepancies in literature-assigned point/space groups and to identify the correct crystal structures. At room temperature we find that our RA SHG patterns rotate away from the crystal axes in RbFe(AO 4 ) 2 ( A = Se, S), which identifies the lack of mirror symmetry and in-plane two-fold rotational symmetry. Also, the SHG efficiency of RbFe(SeO 4 ) 2 is two orders of magnitude stronger than RbFe(AO 4 )2 ( A = Mo, S), which suggests broken inversion symmetry. Additionally, we present temperature-dependent linear optical characterizations near the band edge of this family of materials using ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy. Included is experimental evidence of the band gap energy and band gap transition type for this family. Subband gap absorption is also presented, which reveals prominent optical transitions, some with an unusual central energy temperature dependence. Furthermore, we find that by substituting the A site in RbFe(AO 4 ) 2 ( A = Mo, Se, S), the aforementioned transitions are spectrally tunable. Finally, we discuss the potential origin and impact of these tunable transitions.

A molecular dynamics survey of grain boundary energy in uranium dioxide and cerium dioxide

Uranium dioxide (UO 2 ) is the primary fuel material that is used in current nuclear reactors. As one of the most fundamental material parameters, grain boundary (GB) energy strongly influences many fuel properties, and the influences depend on the characters and properties of individual GBs. Using molecular dynamics simulations, a high throughput survey of GB energy in UO 2 was carried out for the purpose of elucidating the roles of GB geometry such as misorientation and inclination, as well as the bonding nature of UO 2 , in affecting GB energy. GB energies in CeO 2 were calculated as well for comparison with UO2toinvestigate the generality of GB energy anisotropy in fluorite phase oxides. The results show significant GB energy anisotropy in both UO 2 and CeO 2 that is associated with the cubic symmetry of the fluorite structure. More interestingly, the GB anisotropy is found to be dependent not only on the crystal structure but also the ionic bonding. As such, the GB energy anisotropy in fluorite oxides has significant differences compared with that in fcc metals. We report that the data obtained and the increased knowledge on GB anisotropy will facilitate GB engineering for nuclear fuels with improved properties

The structural basis of bacterial manganese import

Metal ions are essential for all forms of life. In prokaryotes, ATP-binding cassette (ABC) permeases serve as the primary import pathway for many micronutrients including the first-row transition metal manganese. However, the structural features of ionic metal transporting ABC permeases have remained undefined. Here, we present the crystal structure of the manganese transporter PsaBC from Streptococcus pneumoniae in an open-inward conformation. The type II transporter has a tightly closed transmembrane channel due to “extracellular gating” residues that prevent water permeation or ion reflux. Below these residues, the channel contains a hitherto unreported metal coordination site, which is essential for manganese translocation. Mutagenesis of the extracellular gate perturbs manganese uptake, while coordination site mutagenesis abolishes import. These structural features are highly conserved in metal-specific ABC transporters and are represented throughout the kingdoms of life. Collectively, our results define the structure of PsaBC and reveal the features required for divalent cation transport.

Structural basis for antibody binding to adenylate cyclase toxin reveals RTX linkers as neutralization-sensitive epitopes

RTX leukotoxins are a diverse family of prokaryotic virulence factors that are secreted by the type 1 secretion system (T1SS) and target leukocytes to subvert host defenses. T1SS substrates all contain a C-terminal RTX domain that mediates recruitment to the T1SS and drives secretion via a Brownian ratchet mechanism. Neutralizing antibodies against the Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase toxin, an RTX leukotoxin essential for B . pertussis colonization, have been shown to target the RTX domain and prevent binding to the α M β 2 integrin receptor. Knowledge of the mechanisms by which antibodies bind and neutralize RTX leukotoxins is required to inform structure-based design of bacterial vaccines, however, no structural data are available for antibody binding to any T1SS substrate. Here, we determine the crystal structure of an engineered RTX domain fragment containing the α M β 2 -binding site bound to two neutralizing antibodies. Notably, the receptor-blocking antibodies bind to the linker regions of RTX blocks I–III, suggesting they are key neutralization-sensitive sites within the RTX domain and are likely involved in binding the α M β 2 receptor. As the engineered RTX fragment contained these key epitopes, we assessed its immunogenicity in mice and showed that it elicits similar neutralizing antibody titers to the full RTX domain. The results from these studies will support the development of bacterial vaccines targeting RTX leukotoxins, as well as next-generation B . pertussis vaccines.

Generalized representative structures for atomistic systems

A new method is presented to generate atomic structures that reproduce the essential characteristics of arbitrary material systems, phases, or ensembles. Previous methods allow one to reproduce the essential characteristics (e.g. the chemical disorder) of a large random alloy within a small crystal structure. The ability to generate small representations of random alloys, along with the restriction to crystal systems, results from using the fixed-lattice cluster correlations to describe structural characteristics. A more general description of the structural characteristics of atomic systems is obtained using complete sets of atomic environment descriptors. These are used within for generating representative atomic structures without restriction to fixed lattices. A general data-driven approach is provided here utilizing the atomic cluster expansion (ACE) basis. The N-body ACE descriptors are a complete set of atomic environment descriptors that span both chemical and spatial degrees of freedom and are used within for describing atomic structures. The generalized representative structure (GRS) method presented within generates small atomic structures that reproduce ACE descriptor distributions corresponding to arbitrary structural and chemical complexity. It is shown that systematically improvable representations of crystalline systems on fixed parent lattices, amorphous materials, liquids, and ensembles of atomic structures may be produced efficiently through optimization algorithms. With the GRS method, we highlight reduced representations of atomistic machine-learning training datasets that contain similar amounts of information and small 40–72 atom representations of liquid phases. The ability to use GRS methodology as a driver for informed novel structure generation is also demonstrated. The advantages over other data-driven methods and state-of-the-art methods restricted to high-symmetry systems are highlighted.

Glycosidic linkage, N -acetyl side-chain, and other structural properties of methyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β- D -glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-β- D -mannopyranoside monohydrate and related compounds

The crystal structure of methyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-glycopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-mannopyranoside monohydrate, C 15 H 27 NO 11 ·H 2 O, was determined and its structural properties compared to those in a set of mono- and disaccharides bearing N -acetyl side-chains in βGlcNAc aldohexopyranosyl rings. Valence bond angles and torsion angles in these side chains are relatively uniform, but C—N (amide) and C—O (carbonyl) bond lengths depend on the state of hydrogen bonding to the carbonyl O atom and N—H hydrogen. Relative to N -acetyl side chains devoid of hydrogen bonding, those in which the carbonyl O atom serves as a hydrogen-bond acceptor display elongated C—O and shortened C—N bonds. This behavior is reproduced by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, indicating that the relative contributions of amide resonance forms to experimental C—N and C—O bond lengths depend on the solvation state, leading to expectations that activation barriers to amide cis – trans isomerization will depend on the polarity of the environment. DFT calculations also revealed useful predictive information on the dependencies of inter-residue hydrogen bonding and some bond angles in or proximal to β-(1→4) O -glycosidic linkages on linkage torsion angles φ and ψ. Hypersurfaces correlating φ and ψ with the linkage C—O—C bond angle and total energy are sufficiently similar to render the former a proxy of the latter.

Ni( II )-binding affinity of Cc NikZ-II and its homologs: the role of the HH -prong and variable loop revealed by structural and mutational studies

Extracytoplasmic Ni(II)-binding proteins (NiBPs) are molecular shuttles involved in cellular nickel uptake. Here, we determined the crystal structure of apo CcNikZ-II at 2.38 Å, which revealed a Ni(II)-binding site comprised of the double His (HH-)prong (His511, His512) and a short variable (v-)loop nearby (Thr59-Thr64, TEDKYT). Mutagenesis of the site identified Glu60 and His511 as critical for high affinity Ni(II)-binding. Phylogenetic analysis showed 15 protein clusters with two groups containing the HH-prong. Metal-binding assays with 11 purified NiBPs containing this feature yielded higher Ni(II)-binding affinities. Replacement of the wild type v-loop with those from other NiBPs improved the affinity by up to an order of magnitude. This work provides molecular insights into the determinants for Ni(II) affinity and paves way for NiBP engineering.

Ba 6 (Cu x Z y )Sn 4 S 16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi, Sn): High Chemical Flexibility Resulting in Good Nonlinear-Optical Properties

Seven acentric sulfides Ba 6 (Cu x Z y )Sn 4 S 16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi, Sn) were grown by a high-temperature salt flux method. The crystal structures of the Ba 6 (Cu x Z y )Sn 4 S 16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi, Sn) compounds were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction with the aid of solid-state NMR spectroscopy. The Ba 6 (Cu x Z y )Sn 4 S 16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi) compounds are isostructural and crystallize in the Ba 6 Ag 4 Sn 4 S 16 structure type. The Sn-containing compound exhibits high structural similarity to Ba 6 (Cu x Z y )Sn 4 S 16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi) with the presence of an interstitial atomic position partially occupied by Sn atoms. The chemical bonding characteristics of Ba 6 (Cu 2.9 Sn 0.4 )Sn 4 S 16 were understood with electron localization function calculations coupled with crystal orbital Hamilton population calculations. The Ba–S and Cu–S interactions are dominantly ionic, but the Sn–S interactions consist of strong covalent bonding characteristics in Ba 6 (Cu 2.9 Sn 0.4 )Sn 4 S 16 . The monovalent Cu atoms, mixed with certain metals with various oxidation states, significantly shift the optical properties of the Ba 6 (Cu x Z y )Sn 4 S 16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi) compounds. This results in a good balance between the second-harmonic-generation (SHG) response and laser damage threshold (LDT). Ba 6 (Cu 1.9 Zn 1.1 )Sn 4 S 16 possesses a high SHG response and a high LDT of 2.8 × AGS and 3 × AGS, respectively. Here, a density functional theory calculation revealed that CuS 4 and SnS 4 tetrahedra significantly contribute to the SHG response in Ba 6 (Cu 2 Mg)Sn 4 S 16 , which also confirmed that CuS 4 tetrahedra are crucial for the stability and optical properties of the Ba 6 (Cu x Z y )Sn 4 S 16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi, Sn) compounds revealed by electronic structure analysis.

Filling the gap with a bulky diaryl boron group: fluorinated and non-fluorinated copper pyrazolates fitted with a dimesityl boron moiety on the backbone

Successful synthesis has been reported of 4-Mes 2 B-3,5-(CF 3 ) 2 PzH and 4-Mes 2 B-3,5-(CF 3 ) 2 PzH bearing sterically demanding diarylboron moieties at the pyrazole ring 4-position, and their corresponding copper(I) pyrazolate complexes. They show visible blue photoluminescence in solution. The X-ray crystal structures revealed that the fluorinated {[4-BMes 2 -3,5-(CF 3 ) 2 Pz]Cu} 3 crystallizes as discrete trinuclear molecules whereas as the non-fluorinated {[4-BMes 2 -3,5-(CH 3 ) 2 Pz]Cu} 3 forms dimers of trimers with two close inter-trimer Cu···Cu separations. The solid {[4-BMes 2 -3,5-(CF 3 ) 2 Pz]Cu} 3 featuring a sterically confined Cu 3 N 6 core displays bright blue phosphorescence while {[4-BMes 2 -3,5-(CH 3 ) 2 Pz]Cu} 3 , which is a dimer of a trimer, is a red phosphor at room temperature. Here, this work illustrates the modulation of photo-physical properties of metal pyrazolates by adjusting the supporting ligand steric features and introducing secondary diarylboron luminophores. Computational analysis of the structures and photophysical properties of copper complexes are also presented.

Transition Metal Taggants in UO 2 from First Principles

The incorporation of transition metals into nuclear fuel has gained attention both to improve fuel properties and as a possible nuclear forensics tool. Recent experimental studies by Ulrich et al. and Adorno Lopes et al. have investigated Ni and Fe as candidate transition metal dopants for potential nuclear forensics purposes and found that there is minimal alteration to key UO 2 fuel properties. In the present work, we performed density functional theory (DFT) investigations into possible defect structures for Ni and Fe incorporation. The dynamic stability of these defect structures was validated by calculating the phonon density of states. We found that transition metal incorporation likely occurs via substitution at U sites in the fluorite crystal structure with a nearby O vacancy for charge-balancing, which agrees with experimentally proposed structures. Additionally, this defect structure does not cause long-range alterations to the crystal parameters—an important consideration for use as a nuclear fuel taggant. Future needed work involves computational investigation of additional defect concentrations using larger supercells, additional transition metal charge states, and thermal effects. Such investigations can be carried forward into sintering models for a more complete understanding of the suitability of Ni and Fe as fuel taggants.

The diversity of three-dimensional photonic crystals

Many butterflies, birds, beetles, and chameleons owe their spectacular colors to the microscopic patterns within their wings, feathers, or skin. When these patterns, or photonic crystals, result in the omnidirectional reflection of commensurate wavelengths of light, it is due to a complete photonic band gap (PBG). The number of natural crystal structures known to have a PBG is relatively small, and those within the even smaller subset of notoriety, including diamond and inverse opal, have proven difficult to synthesize. Here, we report more than 150,000 photonic band calculations for thousands of natural crystal templates from which we predict 351 photonic crystal templates – including nearly 300 previously-unreported structures – that can potentially be realized for a multitude of applications and length scales, including several in the visible range via colloidal self-assembly. With this large variety of 3D photonic crystals, we also revisit and discuss oft-used primary design heuristics for PBG materials.
