Coordination driven self-assembly of achiral components, i.e., hexa-alkylated truxene ligands (L) with bis-metallic complexes (M₂), afforded three chiral face-rotating stereoisomer polyhedra (M₆L₂). By tuning the length of the alkyl chains as well as...

Copper is an important metal both in living organisms and in the industrial activity of humans, it is also a distributed water pollutant and a toxic agent capable of inducing acute and chronic health disorders. There are several fluorescent chemosens...

We investigate the two-photon fluorescence (TPF) of conjugated polymer (CP) microspheres with diameters up to tens of micrometers. Two polymers, emitting in either the violet or red, were first synthesized and characterized in terms of their one-phot...

Gold(III) complexation with the octadecahydrido-eicosaborate anion [B₂₀H₁₈]²⁻ was studied for the first time. It was found that when gold(III) complexes [Au(L)Cl₂]BF₄ (L = bipy, phen) reacted with [B₂₀H₁₈]²⁻, complexes [Au(L)Cl₂]₂[B₂₀H₁₈]...

The global demand on adipic usage in the production of plasticizers and synthetic polyamide is increasing. In line with the search for an efficient and energy-conserving way to isolate adipic acid (AA) in good yields, this paper introduces the oxidiz...

Iron(II)-Schiff base complexes are a well-studied class of spin-crossover (SCO) active species due to their ability to interconvert between a paramagnetic high spin-state (HS, S = 2, ⁵T₂) and a diamagnetic low spin-state (LS, S = 0, ¹A₁) by external...

In this paper, we have used a saturated five-membered N-Heterocyclic carbene (5SIDipp = 1,3-bis-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidine) for the synthesis of SNHC-haloboranes adducts and their further nucleophilic substitutions to put unusual fun...

Treatment of 3,4-(ClC(O))₂-^cC₄H₂S (1) with [FcCH₂OLi] (2-Li) (Fc = Fe(η⁵-C₅H₅)(η⁵-C₅H₄)) in a 1:2 ratio gave 3,4-(FcCH₂OC(O))₂-^cC₄H₂S (3). Compound 3 decomposes in solution during crystallization to produce FcCH₂OH (2) along with 3,4-thiophen...

In this work, we report the synthesis and characterization of a mono-nuclear “two wall” aryl-extended calix[4]pyrrole receptor (2Au) decorated with an acetylide-gold(I)-PTA complex at its upper rim. We describe the ¹H NMR titration experi...

The spin-coating technique was used to produce composite films consisting of PMMA polymer doped with anisometric complexes of Eu(III) and Tb(III). It was found that an increase in the content of Tb³⁺ complexes intensifies emission of both ions due to...

In this paper, Zr(IV) nitrate solution decomposed from Viet Nam zircon concentrate was the source of zirconium extraction by liquid-liquid extraction (L.L.E). The FT-IR and UV-Vis spectra confirmed the extraction of Zr(IV) by D2EHPA/p-xylenes. There...

Silver nanowire (AgNW) networks with high transparency and conductivity are crucial to developing transparent conductive films (TCFs) for flexible optoelectronic devices. However, AgNW-based TCFs still suffer from the high contact resistance of AgNW...

Magnetic refrigeration material is the key to adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration technology. In this work, two magnetic refrigerants, Gd₅(C₄O₄)(HCOO)₃(CO₃)₂(OH)₆·2.5H₂O (1) and Gd₂(OH)₄SO₄ (2), were prepared through hydrothermal reaction....

To develop the structural and functional modeling chemistry of [NiFe]-H₂ases, we have carried out a study regarding the synthesis, structural characterization and reactivity of a new series of [NiFe]-H₂ase model complexes. Thus, treatment of diphosph...

The co-precipitation method was employed to synthesize a set of ZnAl hydrotalcite materials modified by Cu²⁺. The synthesized materials have a similar lamellar structure to that of hydrotalcite. The distance between layers is in the range of 7.73&nda...

Due to its highly conjugated panel-like structure and unique photophysical and chemical features, anthracene has been widely used for fabricating attractive and functional supramolecular assemblies, including two-dimensional metallacycles and three-d...

Hierarchically ordered porous silica materials (HSMs) with a micro/mesoporous structure were successfully prepared with the sol-gel method using dextran, dextran/CTAB, and CTAB as templates. The obtained hierarchically structured silica was successfu...
