This thesis reports progress in three major aspects of σ-bonded organometallic porphyrins that are described in the published papers found in chapters 4, 5 and 6. meso-Iodoporphyrins, which were prepared in a rapid, selective and high yielding methodology from the respective 1-palladioporphyrins or bromoporphyrins, are important starting materials for further functionalisations of porphyrins. Their utility was confirmed in a palladium-catalysed coupling reaction and this novel synthetic strategy could potentially be applied for iodine/bromine exchange on other organic substrates.. A 1-palladioporphyrin was also utilised to optimise the reaction conditions leading to the formation of porphyrinylphosphine oxides. This synthetic strategy simplified the challenging optimisation of the palladium-catalysed reaction and has great potential to be applied in other catalytic processes. Subsequently a suite of porphyrinylphosphine oxides was prepared under the optimised catalytic conditions. These macrocycles, which represent a new class of porphyrins, were isolated cleanly in very high yields. Detailed spectroscopic investigations as well as X-ray single crystal analysis demonstrated their structures unambiguously and established their potential as ligands for supramolecular chemistry. The coordinating properties of phosphine oxides in general and porphyrinylphosphine oxides in particular, towards Mg(II) centred porphyrins were examined in further experiments. Triphenylphosphine oxide showed a strong affinity towards Mg(II) porphyrins and the calculated displacement constant of 5.3 × 105 M-1 was two orders of magnitude larger than any other Mg(II) porphyrin-ligand binding constant reported thus far. Di- and triporphyrin arrays consisting of Mg(II) porphyrin coordinated to free base and Ni(II) porphyrinyl mono- and bis-phosphine oxides were also prepared in high yields. Spectroscopic studies indicated that these porphyrin oligomers exhibit strong inter-porphyrin electronic interaction. A Mg(II) porphyrinylphosphine oxide dimer was also isolated in a satisfactory yield. The large self-association constant of 5.5 × 108 M-1 confirmed the strong affinity of porphyrinylphosphine oxides towards Mg(II) porphyrins and established these complexes as the first strongly bound synthetic Mg(II) porphyrin analogues of the "special pair" of the photosynthetic reaction centre.

Ultrathin films of Cobalt, Iron and Manganese have been thennally evaporated onto an fcc Copper (111) single crystal substrate and investigated using a variety of surface structural teclmiques. The small lattice mismatch between these metals and the Cu (111) substrate make them an ideal candidate for the study of the phenomena of pseudomorphic film growth. This is important for the understanding of the close relationship between film structure and magnetic properties. Growing films with the structure of their substrate rather than their bulk phase may provide an opportunity to grow materials with novel physical and magnetic properties, and hence new technological applications. Both Cobalt and Iron have been found to initially maintain a registry with the fee Cu (111) surface in a manner consistent with pseudomorphic growth. This growth is complicated by island rather than layer-by-layer growth in the initials stages of the film. In both cases a change in the structure of the film seems to occur at a point where the coalescence of islands in the film may be expected to occur. When the film does change structure they do not form a perfect over-layer with the structure of their bulk counterpart. The films do contain a number of features representative of the bulk phase but also contain considerable disorder and possibly remnants of fcc (111) structure. The order present in these films can be greatly improved by annealing. Manganese appears to grow with an fee Mn (111) lattice spacing and there is no sign of a change in structure in films of up to 4.61 ML thick. The gradual deposition and annealing of a film to 300°C, with a total deposition time the same as that for a 1 ML thick film, causes a surface reconstruction to occur that is apparent in a R30° (√3×√3) LEED pattern. This is attributed to the formation of a surface alloy, which is also supported by the local expansion of the Cu lattice in the (111) direction.

Abstract In this thesis work, crystal and phase structure, chemical composition and gas sensing properties of pulsed laser deposited vanadium oxide thin films were studied. Pulsed laser deposition was used to manufacture vanadium oxide thin films with various crystal structures, film morphologies and phase compositions. Both the well-known vanadium pentoxide V2O5, and a totally new stable phase in a solid-state thin-film form, V7O16, was produced. The existence of these phases was proven by several different characterization methods such as, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The resistive gas sensing measurements of the films with pure V2O5 composition, and mixed phase compositions of V2O5 and V7O16, showed that behaviour of the electrical response to different gases at various measurement temperatures was dependent on the phase composition of the thin films. It was proved that in certain conditions the mixed phase films show p-type semiconducting gas sensing behaviour, instead of the pure n-type behaviour of V2O5. Both types of film compositions were shown to be highly sensitive to ammonia gas, down to 40 ppb-level. The mixed phase composition showed a higher response to ammonia compared to the pure V2O5 phase; however the pure V2O5 showed better long-term stability. Both sensing layer types also showed high selectivity to ammonia in comparison to NO and CO gases. Nanostructured pure V2O5 layers were successfully deposited on commercial microheater platforms and then used as a gas sensor. The V2O5 nanostructures were proven to be very promising candidates as gas sensor material to control the Selective Catalytic Reduction process used in the reduction of NOx gas emissions. The surface valence states of the thin film structures with various phase compositions were studied spectroscopically, and a clear connection between the valence states of the film surfaces and gas sensing properties was found. It was concluded that the pure V2O5 films also had some V4+ ions in the surface, and in the mixed phase thin films, the amount V4+ ions was already quite high, indicating a higher amount of oxygen vacancies in the thin film surface – another proof of the existence of V7O16 phase in the film composition. It is also suggested that the particular quantity of oxygen vacancies is one of the reasons for the high gas-sensing response of the thin films. / Tiivistelmä Tässä työssä tutkittiin pulssilaserkasvatettujen vanadiinioksidiohutkalvojen kide- ja faasirakenteita sekä ominaisuuksia kaasuantureina. Vanadiinioksidiohutkalvoja, jotka omaavat erilaiset kide- ja faasirakenteet, sekä erilaiset morfologiat valmistettiin pulssilaserkasvatuksella. Tunnetun V2O5 -faasin lisäksi myös V7O16 -faasi onnistuttiin valmistamaan ensimmäistä kertaa kiinteän aineen epäorgaanisena faasina ohutkalvorakenteeseen. Näiden erilaisten faasirakenteiden olemassaolo todistettiin käyttämällä useita menetelmiä kuten röntgendiffraktiota, Raman spektroskopiaa ja röntgenfotoelektronispektroskopiaa. Sekä ainoastaan V2O5 -faasia sisältäviä ohutkalvoja, että V2O5 ja V7O16 sekafaasirakenteen omaavia ohutkalvoja tutkittiin kaasuanturina, ja mittaustulokset osoittivat erilaisten kalvojen sähköisten kaasuanturivasteiden ominaisuuksien voimakkaan riippuvuuden kalvojen faasirakenteesta. Havaittiin myös, että sekafaasirakenne omaa tietyissä olosuhteissa p-tyyppisen puolijohteen sähkönjohtavuusmekanismin, toisin kuin puhdas V2O5-rakenne, joka on täysin n-tyyppinen. Molemmat ohutkalvotyypit todennettiin olevan erityisen herkkiä ammoniakki (NH3) kaasulle, jopa 40 miljardisosatasolle. Kalvo, jossa oli sekafaasirakenne, omasi korkeamman sähköisen kaasuvasteen kuin puhtaasta V2O5 faasista koostuva ohutkalvo, joka taas toisaalta omasi paremman stabiiliuden pidemmällä aikavälillä. Molemmat kaasuanturimateriaalit havaittiin selektiiviseksi NH3 -kaasulle verrattuna NO- ja CO-kaasuihin. Puhdas V2O5 nanorakenne onnistuttiin myös kasvattamaan kaupalliselle anturialustalle, ja käyttämään menestyksekkäästi herkkänä NH3- kaasuanturina. Lisäksi puhtaan V2O5 nanorakenteen todennettiin olevan erittäin lupaava kaasuanturimateriaali hyödynnettäväksi NOx-kaasupäästöjen vähentämiseen käytettävän SCR-katalyysiprosessin (Selective Catalytic Reduction) ohjauksessa. Ohutkalvotyyppien pinnan sähköistä rakennetta tutkittiin röntgenspektroskopiamenetelmillä, ja selvä yhteys materiaalien pintojen valenssitilojen ja kaasuanturiominaisuuksien välillä havaittiin. Huomattiin, että myös puhdas V2O5 ohutkalvo omaa pinnallaan pienen määrän V4+ -ioneja, ja että ohutkalvossa, jossa on sekafaasirakenne, V4+ -ionien määrä on suuri, ollen yksi todiste lisää V7O16 faasin olemassaoloon kalvon rakenteessa. Tästä johtuva happivakanssien olemassaolo on yksi syy näiden ohutkalvojen korkeaan kaasuherkkyyteen.

xviii, 724 p. : ill. (some col.) / Structural trends applicable to crystal engineering were studied in three classes of thiourea-based compounds. The aim of the study was to identify, predict, and ultimately design reliable single-molecule structural features, which could then be used to engineer crystals with desirable properties. In one class of compounds, this goal was achieved: N-alkyl and N-aryl derivatives of N,N'-bis(3-thioureidopropyl)piperazine adopted an identical conformation in the solid state, which resulted in near-identical crystal packing. A second class of closely related compounds, N-substituted tris(2-thioureidoethyl)amines, showed no such reliability in the solid state, likely because the parent structure lacked hydrogen-bonding functionalities sufficient to control intramolecular structure. In the third class of compounds that we studied, 1-benzoyl-3-(2-pyridyl)thioureas, substitution patterns were often predictive of molecular conformation; however, these intramolecular trends did not lead to recognizable crystal packing motifs. Nevertheless, certain physical properties observed in this last class of compounds--color, solubility, and often crystallinity--were conformer-specific, interestingly without any apparent relevance to crystal lattice structure. Solution-state and solid-state conformational trends in these 1-benzoyl-3-(2-pyridyl)thioureas have been documented, and speculations as to the source of color in one of the two observed conformations have been noted. / Committee in charge: Shih-Yuan Liu, Chairperson; Kenneth M.
