Self-assembly and nonlinear optical properties of a synthetic dipeptide

Abstract: The self-assembly propensities and nonlinear optical properties of synthetic dipeptides are illustrated. The single crystal X-ray diffraction study of dipeptide 1 containing a p-nitrophenylalanine moiety reveals that the peptide adopts a supramolecular antiparallel b-sheet structure using hydrogen bonding, as well as p-p stacking interactions, in the solid state and the peptide exhibits nonlocal thermal nonlinear refraction due to the thermal lensing effect. The heat dissipation in the dipeptide 1 was a slow p… Show more

“…10 Moreover, nitro-aryl moieties play key roles in the physical and chemical properties and self-assembly process in peptide chemistry. 11 In general, in industry aromatic nitro compounds are produced by electrophilic nitration of arenes with HNO 3 in drastic acidic conditions. Under these drastic conditions functional group tolerance, over-nitration and regioselectivity can be problematic.…”

“…In addition to Ag‐NPs, Pd‐NPs were also successfully prepared from a calcium cholate hydrogel by the reduction of potassium tetrachloropalladate(II) with sodium cyanoborohydride in situ (Figure ) . As demonstrated by the Suzuki reaction of aryl boronic acid and aryl halides (X=I and Br), the Pd‐NPs revealed good catalytic activity with a wide substrate scope, and could be reused four times.…”

“…This is popularly known as the thermal lensing effect. [59][60][61] The radially varying intensity profile of a Gaussian laser beam sets up a radially varying temperature profile in the sample. This results in a radial density gradient leading to a refractive index gradient over the beam cross-section.…”
