This work aims to amplify the fluorescence of (Z)-4-hetarylidene-5(4H)-oxazolones 1 by suppression of the hula-twist non-radiative deactivation pathway by C^N-orthopalladation of the 4-hetarylidene ring. Different (Z)-4-hetarylidene-2-phenyl-5(4H)-ox...

High-yielding synthetic routes to five new extremely bulky aminopyridine pro-ligands were developed, viz. (C₅H₃N-6-Ar¹)N(H)Ar²-2; Ar¹ = Trip, Ar² = TCHP (HAmPy¹), Ar* (HAmPy²) or Ar^† (HAmPy³); Ar¹ = TCHP, Ar² = Ar* (HAmPy⁴) or Ar^† (HAmP...

The mechanism of the mechanically assisted mineral carbonation of commercial olivine under the flow of a carbon dioxide (CO₂)/nitrogen (N₂) mixture has been elucidated by ex situ powder X-ray diffraction and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. T...

The molecular and supramolecular structures of some M(II) complexes (M = Co, Mn, Cu, Ni, Zn) with a hydrazone-s-triazine ligand (^BMPyTr) were discussed based on single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), Hirshfeld and DFT analyses. A new Co(II) comple...

In the present work, we reported the synthesis and characterization [single crystal X-ray diffraction technique, spectroscopic, etc.] of two new Ni(II) and Zn(II) coordination compounds, viz. [Ni(2,6-PDC)₂]₂[Ni(en)₂(H₂O)₂]₂[Ni(en)(H₂O)₄]·4H₂O...

Perovskite materials are promising for thermochemical energy storage due to their ability to undergo redox cycling over a wide temperature range. Although BaCoO₃ exhibits excellent air cycling properties, its heat storage capacity in air remains subo...

Sodium borohydride-closo-hydroborate Na₃(BH₄)(B₁₂H₁₂) exhibits high room-temperature ionic conductivity and high electrochemical stability. To study the dynamical properties of this mixed-anion compound at the microscopic level, we have measured the...

This review explores the processes involved in enhancing AlN film quality through various magnetron sputtering techniques, crucial for optimizing performance and expanding their application scope. It presents recent advancements in growing AlN thin f...

Mesoporous titania nanoparticles (NPs) can be used for encapsulation polyphenols, with applications in the food industry, cosmetics, or biomedicine. TiO₂ NPs were synthesized using the sol-gel method combined with solvothermal treatment. TiO₂ NPs wer...

In this study, low Mn content Fe-Mn-Si-based shape memory alloys [Fe-(17-2x) Mn-6Si-xNi-yCr-0.3C (x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4; y = 0, 1, 3, 5)] were prepared via vacuum arc remelting. The alloys were hot-rolled and solid-solution-treated at 1150 °C for 1 h...

We synthesized four new copper(II) complexes with acetato and chlorido ligands and methylammonium (MA), dimethylammonium (DMA), and tetramethylammonium (TMA) counterions: (MA)₄[Cu₂Ac₄Cl₂]Cl₂·2H₂O (1), (DMA)₂[Cu₂Ac₄Cl₂] (2), (DMA)₄[Cu₂Ac₄Cl₂]Cl...

Three nickel, copper, and zinc complexes with dicarboxylic acids (3,3′-dithiodipropionic acid (H₂dtdp) and fumaric acid (H₂fu)) and N-donor ligands (1,10-phenanthroline (phen), N′–methyldipropylenetriamine (mdpta), and N,N,N′,...

The main objective of this work was to analyze the transport by diffusion of salts containing some metal ions (that is, CoCl₂, CrCl₃, HgCl₂, and PbCl₂), at 25.0 °C, in two different aqueous solutions with varying pH levels, namely, sodium chlorid...

Background and Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the flexural strength, color change and antimicrobial effect of silver–zeolite nanoparticles (NPs) in acrylic resin materials. Methods: Fifty-six disc-shaped acrylic resin samples were divide...

Wide-bandgap semiconductors have been envisioned for power electronics applications because of their ability to operate at higher temperatures and higher applied voltages without breakdown. However, the presence of defects may cause device failure, n...
