The spermine-based hydroxypyridonate octadentate chelator 3,4,3-LI(1,2-HOPO) was investigated for its ability to act as an antenna that sensitizes the emission of Sm(III), Eu(III), and Tb(III) in the Visible range (Φ(tot) = 0.2-7%) and the emission of Pr(III), Nd(III), Sm(III), and Yb(III) in the Near Infra-Red range,…
Sodium vanadium oxide gels, Na(x)V(2)O(5)·nH(2)O, of varying sodium content (0.12 < x < 0.32) were prepared by careful control of an ion exchange process. The water content (0.23 > n > 0.01) and interlayer spacing were found to be inversely proportional to the sodium level (x), thus control of sodium (x) content provi…
In order to mimic the electrical properties of natural bone, the present work investigated the dielectric, AC conductivity, pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties of HA-40 wt% BaTiO3 (HA-26 vol% BaTiO3) and HA-60 wt% BaTiO3 (HA-44 vol% BaTiO3) composites. Multistage spark plasma sintering was used to achieve the de…
Highly fluorescent organic nanoparticles are synthesized via ion-association between 3,3′-diethylthiacyanine (TC) cation and tetrakis(4-fluorophenyl)borate anion in the presence of a neutral stabilizing polymer in water. The fluorescence shows a significant increase with a decrease in the nanoparticle size, resulting…
The hydrogen storage properties of the MgH2-LiAlH4 (4 : 1) composite system with and without additives were studied. 5 wt.% of TiF3, NbF5, NiF2, CrF2, YF3, TiCl3·1/3AlCl3, HfCl4, LaCl3, CeCl3, and NdCl3, respectively, was added to the MgH2-LiAlH4 (4 : 1) mixture, and their catalytic effect was investigated. Temperatur…
Dehydrogenation of Me(2)NH·BH(3) (1) by group 4 metallocene alkyne complexes of the type Cp(2)M(L)(η(2)-Me(3)SiC(2)SiMe(3)) [Cp = η(5)-cyclopentadienyl; M = Ti, no L (2Ti); M = Zr, L = pyridine (2Zr)] and group 4 metal amido complexes of the type M(NMe(2))(4) [M = Ti (8Ti), Zr (8Zr)] is presented.
Radioactive wastes from hospitals form one of the various types of urban wastes, which are managed in developed countries in a safe and organized way. In countries where growth of nuclear medicine services are envisaged, implementations of existing regulatory policies and guidelines in hospitals in terms of handling o…
Nanoporous metallic glass Pd, which was fabricated by dealloying of a glassy metallic alloy Pd(30)Ni(50)P(20), exhibited a remarkable catalytic activity for the Suzuki-coupling reaction between iodoarenes and arylboronic acids under mild conditions. Moreover, the catalyst can be reused several times without a signific…
The first elemental cluster with hexacapped trigonal bipyramidal geometry is revealed in the luminescent undecanuclear silver complex which is stabilized by nine dithiocarbamate ligands and has an interstitial hydride. The hydride position within the Ag(11) cage is confirmed by a DFT investigation.
Surface functionalization of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) has been an exciting area of interest for researchers in biomedicine. In this paper, we introduce a new family of peptide dendritic ligands for functionalizing MNPs of superior quality. L-Lysine- and L-glutamic acid-based dendritic ligands with dopamine locate…
Ligand exchange reactions using 4–5 nm 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine (DxMAP)-capped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) formed the basis for synthesizing a family of liquid crystal (LC)-capped NPs for a rationalized miscibility in liquid crystal matrices. NPs with ligand capping layers composed of CH3(CH2)mSH (m = 5, 11) or 4′…
We report a facile synthesis of ferromagnetic SmCo nanoparticles (NPs) via a controlled reduction of SmCo–O NPs. The SmCo–O NPs were prepared by co-precipitation of Co(II) and Sm(III) acetates with hexadecyl-trimethylammonium hydroxide and were embedded in a CaO matrix. The 7 nm SmCo3.6–O NPs were reduced by Ca at 960…
A study of the supramolecular isomer-dependent photoresponse and emission behaviors of a carboxybenzyl-substituted bipyridinium salt in the solid state is presented. Two supramolecular isomers (A1 and A2) are obtained by self-assembly with the same starting materials at different concentrations. The flexible conformat…
A simple classical model of magnetic-field induced electron flow is used to evaluate the ring current strength for a few inorganic monocyclic compounds: B(3)H(3)N(3), B(3)H(3)O(3), P(6), N(6), Si(6)H(6), N, Al and H(6). It is shown that, for these neutral and charged systems, sustaining delocalized electron currents i…
The fabrication of a fibrous collagen scaffold using electrospinning is desirable for tissue-engineering applications. Previously, electrospun collagen fibers were shown to be unstable in aqueous environments and, therefore, cross-linking is essential to stabilize these fibers. In this study genipin, a significantly l…
Our world is ever growing, there will be higher demands on electricity, and fossil fuels cannot satisfy this demand without further harming the environment. Likewise, renewable energy sources such as solar and winds are still in their infancy and, when used alone, are not realistic solutions to meet this demand. Westi…
A strategy is presented for the synthesis of dual-modality and theranostic silica (SiO2) nanohybrids that exert excellent properties for drug delivery vehicles as well as optical and magnetic resonance imaging. SiO2 nanohybrids are composed of CuInS2/ZnS quantum dots and magnetite nanocrystals, with an outside SiO2 sh…
This paper presents a novel approach for de-agglomeration and surface functionalization of detonation nanodiamond at the same time in one pot. Various kinds of polymer chains (e.g., polystyrene, polymethyl methacrylate and polyglycidyl methacrylate) can be chemically grafted onto the de-agglomerated nanodiamond by the…
A series of unsymmetrical silicon(IV) phthalocyanines with a permethylated β-cyclodextrin unit and a sugar or a diamino moiety as the axial substituents have been prepared. These compounds are highly photocytotoxic with IC(50) values as low as 21 nM, which is ca. sevenfold lower than those of the symmetrical bis(cyclo…
Three polyoxometalate-based inorganic–organic hybrid compounds constructed from silver(I)-L (L = N,N′-bis-pyridin-2-ylmethylene-hydrazine) species and saturated Keggin type polyoxoanions, {[Ag3L3](PW12O40)(CH3CN)(DMF)2.5}n (1), [Ag4L3(CH3CN)4][Ag2L(CH3CN)3](PMo12O40)2·CH3CN (2) and [(SiMo12O40){Ag2L(CH3CN)3}2]·(CH3CN)…
