Thin-film photovoltaic devices composed of polymers or small molecules have an exciting future as sources of renewable energy because they can be made in large sizes on flexible surfaces by inexpensive techniques of fabrication. Significant progress in developing new molecular photovoltaic materials and device archite…
The metal–organic framework CPO-27-Ni is presented as a proof-of-concept model for the incorporation and release of two non-conventional anticancer drugs: [Ru(p-cymene)Cl2(pta)] (RAPTA-C) and NO.
A comparative study of two structural isomers highlights the advantages of bifuran vs. bithiophene units in conjugated systems, such as higher fluorescence, solubility, and increased stability of the oxidized species. Importantly, we have found that the small bifuran unit bestows the advantages found in longer oligofu…
Conventional condensation polymerization proceeds in a step-growth polymerization manner, in which the generated polymers possess a broad molecular weight distribution, and control over molecular weight and polymer end groups is difficult. However, the mechanism of condensation polymerization of some monomers has been…
Atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) has become one of the most widely used living radical polymerization techniques for preparation of polymers with pre-designed compositions, topologies and functionalities. Hydrophilic (co)polymers are broadly used in various fields, such as hybrid materials, surface modifica…
In this work, compound 1 has been rationally designed and synthesized as a new fluorescent probe for biological thiols. Notably, probe 1 has almost no background fluorescence (Φf < 0.0001) in aqueous solutions; however, it exhibited fluorescence turn-on response to thiols with high sensitivity (a 246-fold fluorescence…
Eight new coordination polymers [Mn(H2btc)2(4,4′-bpy)2]n (1), {[Cd(Hbtc)(phen)(H2O)]·H2O}n (2), [Pb(Hbtc)(phen)]n (3), {[Cd3(btc)2(H2O)5]·4H2O}n (4), {[Cd3(btc)2(phen)2(H2O)]·H2O}n (5), [Mn3(btc)2(2,2′-bpy)2]n (6), {[Ni3(btc)2(4,4′-bpy)2.5(μ2-H2O)(H2O)3]·3H2O}n (7), and {[Co2(btc)(μ3-OH)(μ2-H2O) (8), were assembled fr…
ICT fluorophore benzoxadiazole with its electron-donating group modified as a Cu(2+) chelator was conjugated with coumarin to construct a new ratiometric sensor with reversible intracellular Cu(2+) imaging ability.
TiO2 microspheres with a large surface area, high crystallinity, uniform nanostructure and good light scattering properties were synthesized in an acetone–phenol mixed solvent via a simple solvothermal process. X-ray diffraction patterns and electron microscopy images indicated that the prepared TiO2 microspheres had…
To explore the influence of different carboxylate ligands on the structures of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), five novel Zn(II) coordination polymer compounds, namely, {[Zn(atz)(bia)]}n (1), {[Zn3(atz)3(tpa)3/2]}n (2), {[Zn2(atz)2(pda)]}n (3), {[Zn4(atz)2(btc)]·4H2O}n (4) and {[Zn2(atz)2(btec)]·H2O}n (5) have been s…
The carbon-based positive electrode of Lithium Air Batteries (LABs) is the component where the major competitive mechanisms occur, such as the electrochemical reactions leading to the formation and decomposition of multiple types of lithium oxides, lithium ion and electronic transport as well as oxygen transport. Thro…
D–π–A type boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dye YH-1, which has two pyridyl groups as electron-withdrawing-anchoring groups at the end of the 3- and 5-positions and a carbazole-diphenylamine moiety as an electron donor at the 8-position on the BODIPY core, was designed and developed as a photosensitizer for dye-sensitize…
The binding phase of cementitious materials, calcium–silicate–hydrates, can be described as nanogranular and as an inorganic hydrogel. Similar to other hydrated “soft matter,” the water confined within the nano- to microscale pores of such cementitious materials plays a crucial role in the structure and properties of…
Hollow 0.3Li(2)MnO(3)·0.7LiNi(0.5)Mn(0.5)O(2) microspheres are synthesized on a large scale through a simple in situ template-sacrificial route. Starting from porous MnO(2) microspheres, the hollow microspheres assembled with 0.3Li(2)MnO(3)·0.7LiNi(0.5)Mn(0.5)O(2) nanocrystals are formed by a nanoscale Kirkendall effe…
The effect of MFI zeolite nanosheet morphology and related mesostructures on the accessibility of acid sites evaluated from FTIR spectra of different adsorbed probe molecules and conversions and selectivities in toluene disproportionation and alkylation with isopropyl alcohol was investigated. Two-dimensional MFI lame…
Sophorolipids (SLs) are glycolipidic biosurfactants suitable for various biological and physicochemical applications. The nonedible Jatropha oil has been checked as the alternative raw material for SL synthesis using C. bombicola (ATCC22214). This is useful towards lowering the SL production cost. Through optimization…
Hierarchical mesoporous–macroporous MgO (HMMM) is successfully synthesized by using a facile calcination method. Mesoporous Mg(OH)2 produced from HMMM hydrolysis in uranium solution was used to remove U(VI) from aqueous solutions. TEM confirms that mesoporous Mg(OH)2 partly retains interconnected porous structure of H…
A new turn-on fluorescent chemosensor, DPPL1, was rationally designed and synthesized based on diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP), which presented high sensitivity and selectivity for Zn(2+). Specifically, DPPL1 presented a large emission enhancement and a 70 nm blue-shift upon Zn(2+) binding. (1)H NMR titrations, studies int…
