In the ground-state of these rotamers, the planes of the aryl and fluorene moieties are perpendicular to each other and the methyl substituents are consequently positioned either above the fluorene moiety or in-plane with it; thus, the methyl protons are either shielded or deshielded, respectively, due to the ring current effect of the fluorene moiety. This anisotropic effect on the H-1 chemical shifts of the methyl protons has been quantified on the basis of through-space NMR shieldings (TSNMRS) and subsequently Delta delta(calcd) compared with the experimentally observed chemical shift differences, Delta delta(exp). In this context, the experimental anisotropic effects of functional groups in the H-1 NMR have proven to quantitatively be the molecular response property of theoretical spatial nucleus independent chemical shieldings (NICS).

The nature of this unexpected steric substituent effect, which is opposite to general stereochemical concepts, was studied by means of ab kiln MO method, accompanied by NBO and isodesmic calculations. NBO parameters seem to be good descriptors for quantitative prediction of the experimental Delta G degrees value of the title conformational equilibrium. The origin and propagation of the substituent effect of the polar substitutions (CH(2)Cl, CHCl(2), CCl(3), CH(2)Br, CHBr(2), CBr(3)) differ, however, from those of the pure alkyl (Me, Et, iPr, tBu) substitutions. The Delta G degrees value of the polar derivatives depends on the qC8 charges, on the occupation of the sigma(center dot)(C1-07) orbital and on the hyperconjugative pi(center dot)(c=O) -> sigma(center dot)(C10-X) and sigma(center dot)(C10-X) -> pi(center dot)(c=O) interactions. The substituent sensitivity of these NBC parameters for the two conformers differ to the effect that the ax reversible arrow eq equilibrium is shifted to the left side with increasing electron withdrawing character of the acyloxy group. The Delta G degrees values of the alkyl derivatives are interpreted in terms of the calculated dipole moments. The destabilization in the non-polar medium (the experimental Delta G degrees values used were measured in CD(2)Cl(2)) due to the enhanced dipolar character is more prominent in the case of the equatorial alkyl conformers.

The optimized geometry parameters are in good agreement with X-ray structure data. The computation of energy barrier for a and b was determined 16.9 and 2.5 kcal mol(-1), respectively. The former is completely in agreement with the result obtained via dynamic NMR. X-ray structure analysis data demonstrate that just 2-acylated tetrazole was formed in the case of 5-(p-tolyloxy)-N,N-dimethyl-2H-tetrazole-2-carboxamide. X-ray data also revealed a planar trigonal orientation of the Me2N group which is coplanar to carbonyl group with the partial double-bond C-N character. It also demonstrates the synperiplanar position of C=O group with tetrazolyl ring. On average, in solution the plane containing carbonyl bond is almost perpendicular to the plane of the tetrazolyl ring (because of steric effects as confirmed by B3LY12/6-311++G**) while the plane containing Me2N group is coplanar with carbonyl bond which is in contrast with similar urea derivatives and it demonstrates the unusually high rotational energy barrier of these compounds.

When building calibration models with partial least-squares regression analysis on the optical properties for non-destructive analysis of the fruit SSC, μa at 532 nm and 830 nm resulted in a correlation coefficient of R = 0.66, however, showing high measuring uncertainty. The combination of all three wavelengths gave an enhanced, encouraging R = 0.89 for firmness analysis using μs' in the freshly picked fruit.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Erler2020, author = {Erler, Alexander}, title = {Entwicklung von online-Detektionsverfahren f{\"u}r landwirtschaftlich relevante Analyten}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-47340}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-473406}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {viii, 123}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Die Entwicklung nachhaltiger Bewirtschaftungs- und Produktionsmethoden ist eine der zentralen Fragestellungen der modernen Agrarwirtschaft. Die vorliegende Arbeit besch{\"a}ftigt sich mit zwei Forschungsthemen, die das Konzept Nachhaltigkeit beinhalten. In beiden F{\"a}llen werden analytische Grundlagen f{\"u}r die Entwicklung entsprechender landwirtschaftlicher Arbeitsmethoden gelegt. Das erste Thema ist an den sogenannten Pr{\"a}zisionsackerbau angelehnt. Bei diesem wird die Bearbeitung von Agrarfl{\"a}chen ortsabh{\"a}ngig ausgef{\"u}hrt. Das heißt, die Ausbringung von Saatgut, D{\"u}nger, Bew{\"a}sserung usw. richtet sich nach den Eigenschaften des jeweiligen Standortes und wird nicht pauschal gleichm{\"a}ßig {\"u}ber ein ganzes Feld verteilt. Voraussetzung hierf{\"u}r ist eine genaue Kenntnis der Bodeneigenschaften. In der vorliegenden Arbeit sollten diese Parameter mittels der analytischen Technik der Laser-induzierten Breakdown Spektroskopie (LIBS), die eine Form der Elementaranalyse darstellt, bestimmt werden. Bei den hier gesuchten Bodeneigenschaften handelte es sich um die Gehalte von N{\"a}hrstoffen sowie einige sekund{\"a}re Parameter wie den Humusanteil, den pH-Wert und den pflanzenverf{\"u}gbaren Anteil einzelner N{\"a}hrstoffe. Diese Eigenschaften wurden durch etablierte Referenzanalysen bestimmt. Darauf aufbauend wurden die Messergebnissen der LIBS-Untersuchungen durch verschiedene Methoden der sogenannten multivariaten Datenanalyse (MVA) ausgewertet. Daraus sollten Modelle zur Vorhersage der Bodenparameter in zuk{\"u}nftigen LIBS-Messungen erarbeitet werden. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit zeigten, dass mit der Kombination von LIBS und MVA s{\"a}mtliche Bodenparameter erfolgreich vorhergesagt werden konnten. Dies beinhaltete sowohl die tats{\"a}chlich messbaren Elemente als auch die sekund{\"a}ren Eigenschaften, welche durch die MVA mit den Elementgehalten in Zusammenhang gebracht wurden. Das zweite Thema besch{\"a}ftigt sich mit der Vermeidung von Verlusten durch Sch{\"a}dlingsbefall bei der Getreidelagerung. Hier sollten mittels der Ionenmobilit{\"a}tsspektrometrie (IMS) Schimmelpilzkontaminationen detektiert werden. Dabei wurde nach den fl{\"u}chtigen Stoffwechselprodukten der Pilze gesucht. Die durch Referenzmessungen mit Massenspektrometern identifizierten Substanzen konnten durch IMS im Gasvolumen {\"u}ber den Proben, dem sogenannten Headspace, nachgewiesen werden. Dabei wurde nicht nur die Anwesenheit einer Kontamination festgestellt, sondern diese auch charakterisiert. Die freigesetzten Substanzen bildeten spezifische Muster, anhand derer die Pilze identifiziert werden konnten. Hier wurden sowohl verschiedene Gattungen als auch einzelne Arten unterschieden. Die Messungen fanden auf verschiedenen N{\"a}hrb{\"o}den statt um den Einfluss dieser auf die Stoffwechselprodukte zu beobachten. Auch die sekund{\"a}ren Stoffwechselprodukte der Schimmelpilze, die Mykotoxine, konnten durch IMS detektiert werden. Beide in dieser Arbeit vorgestellten Forschungsthemen konnten erfolgreich abgeschlossen werden. Sowohl LIBS als auch IMS erwiesen sich f{\"u}r den Nachweis der jeweiligen Analyten als geeignet, und der Einsatz moderner computergest{\"u}tzter Auswertemethoden erm{\"o}glichte die genaue Charakterisierung der gesuchten Parameter. Beide Techniken k{\"o}nnen in Form von mobilen Ger{\"a}ten verwendet werden und zeichnen sich durch eine schnelle und sichere Analyse aus. In Kombination mit entsprechenden Modellen der MVA sind damit alle Voraussetzungen f{\"u}r Vor-Ort-Untersuchungen und damit f{\"u}r den Einsatz in der Landwirtschaft erf{\"u}llt.}, language = {de} } @article{ErlerRiebeBeitzetal.2018, author = {Erler, Alexander and Riebe, Daniel and Beitz, Toralf and L{\"o}hmannsr{\"o}ben, Hans-Gerd and Grothusheitkamp, Daniela and Kunz, T. and Methner, Frank-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Detection of volatile organic compounds in the headspace above mold fungi by GC-soft X-radiation-based APCI-MS}, series = {Journal of mass spectrometr}, volume = {53}, journal = {Journal of mass spectrometr}, number = {10}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Hoboken}, issn = {1076-5174}, doi = {10.1002/jms.4210}, pages = {911 -- 920}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Mold fungi on malting barley grains cause major economic loss in malting and brewery facilities. Possible proxies for their detection are volatile and semivolatile metabolites. Among those substances, characteristic marker compounds have to be identified for a confident detection of mold fungi in varying surroundings. The analytical determination is usually performed through passive sampling with solid phase microextraction, gas chromatographic separation, and detection by electron ionization mass spectrometry (EI-MS), which often does not allow a confident determination due to the absence of molecular ions. An alternative is GC-APCI-MS, generally, allowing the determination of protonated molecular ions. Commercial atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) sources are based on corona discharges, which are often unspecific due to the occurrence of several side reactions and produce complex product ion spectra. To overcome this issue, an APCI source based on soft X-radiation is used here. This source facilitates a more specific ionization by proton transfer reactions only. In the first part, the APCI source is characterized with representative volatile fungus metabolites. Depending on the proton affinity of the metabolites, the limits of detection are up to 2 orders of magnitude below those of EI-MS. In the second part, the volatile metabolites of the mold fungus species Aspergillus, Alternaria, Fusarium, and Penicillium are investigated. In total, 86 compounds were found with GC-EI/APCI-MS. The metabolites identified belong to the substance classes of alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, substituted aromatic compounds, terpenes, and sesquiterpenes. In addition to substances unspecific for the individual fungus species, characteristic patterns of metabolites, allowing their confident discrimination, were found for each of the 4 fungus species. Sixty-seven of the 86 metabolites are detected by X-ray-based APCI-MS alone. The discrimination of the fungus species based on these metabolites alone was possible. Therefore, APCI-MS in combination with collision induced dissociation alone could be used as a supervision method for the detection of mold fungi.}, language = {en} } @article{RiebeErlerBrinkmannetal.2019, author = {Riebe, Daniel and Erler, Alexander and Brinkmann, Pia and Beitz, Toralf and L{\"o}hmannsr{\"o}ben, Hans-Gerd and Gebbers, Robin}, title = {Comparison of Calibration Approaches in Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy for Proximal Soil Sensing in Precision Agriculture}, series = {Sensors}, volume = {19}, journal = {Sensors}, number = {23}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {1424-8220}, doi = {10.3390/s19235244}, pages = {16}, year = {2019}, abstract = {The lack of soil data, which are relevant, reliable, affordable, immediately available, and sufficiently detailed, is still a significant challenge in precision agriculture. A promising technology for the spatial assessment of the distribution of chemical elements within fields, without sample preparation is laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). Its advantages are contrasted by a strong matrix dependence of the LIBS signal which necessitates careful data evaluation. In this work, different calibration approaches for soil LIBS data are presented. The data were obtained from 139 soil samples collected on two neighboring agricultural fields in a quaternary landscape of northeast Germany with very variable soils. Reference analysis was carried out by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy after wet digestion. The major nutrients Ca and Mg and the minor nutrient Fe were investigated. Three calibration strategies were compared. The first method was based on univariate calibration by standard addition using just one soil sample and applying the derived calibration model to the LIBS data of both fields. The second univariate model derived the calibration from the reference analytics of all samples from one field. The prediction is validated by LIBS data of the second field. The third method is a multivariate calibration approach based on partial least squares regression (PLSR). The LIBS spectra of the first field are used for training. Validation was carried out by 20-fold cross-validation using the LIBS data of the first field and independently on the second field data. The second univariate method yielded better calibration and prediction results compared to the first method, since matrix effects were better accounted for. PLSR did not strongly improve the prediction in comparison to the second univariate method.}, language = {en} } @misc{WolffCanilRehermannetal.2020, author = {Wolff, Christian Michael and Canil, Laura and Rehermann, Carolin and Nguyen, Ngoc Linh and Zu, Fengshuo and Ralaiarisoa, Maryline and Caprioglio, Pietro and Fiedler, Lukas and Stolterfoht, Martin and Kogikoski, Junior, Sergio and Bald, Ilko and Koch, Norbert and Unger, Eva L. and Dittrich, Thomas and Abate, Antonio and Neher, Dieter}, title = {Correction to 'Perfluorinated self-assembled monolayers enhance the stability and efficiency of inverted perovskite solar cells' (2020, 14 (2), 1445-1456)}, series = {ACS nano}, volume = {14}, journal = {ACS nano}, number = {11}, publisher = {American Chemical Society}, address = {Washington, DC}, issn = {1936-0851}, doi = {10.1021/acsnano.0c08081}, pages = {16156 -- 16156}, year = {2020}, language = {en} } @misc{WolffCaprioglioStolterfohtetal.2019, author = {Wolff, Christian Michael and Caprioglio, Pietro and Stolterfoht, Martin and Neher, Dieter}, title = {Nonradiative Recombination in Perovskite Solar Cells}, series = {Advanced materials}, volume = {31}, journal = {Advanced materials}, number = {52}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {0935-9648}, doi = {10.1002/adma.201902762}, pages = {20}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Perovskite solar cells combine high carrier mobilities with long carrier lifetimes and high radiative efficiencies. Despite this, full devices suffer from significant nonradiative recombination losses, limiting their V-OC to values well below the Shockley-Queisser limit. Here, recent advances in understanding nonradiative recombination in perovskite solar cells from picoseconds to steady state are presented, with an emphasis on the interfaces between the perovskite absorber and the charge transport layers. Quantification of the quasi-Fermi level splitting in perovskite films with and without attached transport layers allows to identify the origin of nonradiative recombination, and to explain the V-OC of operational devices. These measurements prove that in state-of-the-art solar cells, nonradiative recombination at the interfaces between the perovskite and the transport layers is more important than processes in the bulk or at grain boundaries. Optical pump-probe techniques give complementary access to the interfacial recombination pathways and provide quantitative information on transfer rates and recombination velocities. Promising optimization strategies are also highlighted, in particular in view of the role of energy level alignment and the importance of surface passivation. Recent record perovskite solar cells with low nonradiative losses are presented where interfacial recombination is effectively overcome-paving the way to the thermodynamic efficiency limit.}, language = {en} } @article{SalibaCorreaBaenaWolffetal.2018, author = {Saliba, Michael and Correa-Baena, Juan-Pablo and Wolff, Christian Michael and Stolterfoht, Martin and Phung, Thi Thuy Nga and Albrecht, Steve and Neher, Dieter and Abate, Antonio}, title = {How to Make over 20\% Efficient Perovskite Solar Cells in Regular (n-i-p) and Inverted (p-i-n) Architectures}, series = {Chemistry of materials : a publication of the American Chemical Society}, volume = {30}, journal = {Chemistry of materials : a publication of the American Chemical Society}, number = {13}, publisher = {American Chemical Society}, address = {Washington}, issn = {0897-4756}, doi = {10.1021/acs.chemmater.8b00136}, pages = {4193 -- 4201}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are currently one of the most promising photovoltaic technologies for highly efficient and cost-effective solar energy production. In only a few years, an unprecedented progression of preparation procedures and material compositions delivered lab-scale devices that have now reached record power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) higher than 20\%, competing with most established solar cell materials such as silicon, CIGS, and CdTe. However, despite a large number of researchers currently involved in this topic, only a few groups in the world can reproduce >20\% efficiencies on a regular n-i-p architecture. In this work, we present detailed protocols for preparing PSCs in regular (n-i-p) and inverted (p-i-n) architectures with >= 20\% PCE. We aim to provide a comprehensive, reproducible description of our device fabrication , protocols. We encourage the practice of reporting detailed and transparent protocols that can be more easily reproduced by other laboratories.
