Photochemical [2+2] cycloaddition reactions in a two-dimensional interdigitated porous crystalline framework proceed in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal manner, and one-dimensional channels show structural changes that have a significant impact on the CO(2) sorption.
We discuss the phase behavior and in particular crystallization of a model globular protein (beta-lactoglobulin) in solution in the presence of multivalent electrolytes. It has been shown previously that negatively charged globular proteins at neutral pH in the presence of multivalent counterions undergo a “re-entrant…
Acid-catalyzed conversions of levoglucosan have been investigated in mono-alcohols, poly-alcohols, water, chloroform, toluene, acetone, N,N-dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide and some mixed solvents, aiming to mediate conversion of sugars into platform chemicals with solvents. The mono-alcohols can stabilize solub…
A synthetic protocol for endohedral fullerene containing lithium (Li@C60), as well as the synthesis, characterization, and properties of its chemically oxidized derivative [Li+@C60][PF6−] are reported in full. Simultaneous deposition of Li plasma and C60 produces a mixture containing Li@C60 and C60. Strong intermolecu…
Reported here are three 3D metal-organic framework (MOF) polymorphs with the chemical formula [Fe(2)(H(0.67)bdt)(3)]·xH(2)O (H(2)bdt = 5,5'-(1,4-phenylene)bis(1H-tetrazole)), all of which are constructed from similar Fe(II)-tetrazole rod secondary building units (SBUs) via covalent links, but exhibit diverse spin stat…
Successful mine soil reclamation facilitates ecosystem recovery, minimizes adverse environmental impacts, creates additional lands for agricultural or forestry uses, and enhances the carbon (C) sequestration. Nanoparticles with extremely high reactivity and deliverability can be applied as amendments to improve soil q…
Electrochemical Stability of Imidazolium Based Ionic Liquids Containing Cyano Groups in the Anion: A Cyclic Voltammetry, XPS and DFT Study, Weingarth, Daniel, Czekaj, Izabela, Fei, Zhaofu, Foelske-Schmitz, Annette, Dyson, Paul J., Wokaun, Alexander, Kötz, Rüdiger
Here we report a highly porous, water stable Co based ZIF [CoNIm (RHO)] and its solution mediated phase transformation to a less porous and water unstable ZIF [CoNIm (SOD)]. CoNIm (RHO) has high Langmuir surface area [2087 m(2) g(-1)] as well as high water adsorption [200 cm(3) (STP) g(-1)] capacity.
Nanoscale Zn-doped NiO dendritic crystals with a Christmas-tree-like structure, have been successfully synthesized via an electrolytic approach combined with subsequent high temperature oxidation. The trunks have lengths in the range 6–10 μm with diameters varying from 190 nm to 200 nm, and the branches have lengths i…
Nanoparticle contrast agents offer the potential to significantly improve existing methods of cancer diagnosis and treatment. Advantages include biocompatibility, selective accumulation in tumor cells, and reduced toxicity. Considerable research is underway into the use of nanoparticles as enhancement agents for radia…
A convenient and portable triacetone triperoxide (TATP) sensor was developed utilizing a thiol-to-disulfide oxidation to trigger a solution-to-gel phase transition. Using this method, TATP can be detected visually without any instrumentation.
Though as-quenched martensite exhibits a low uniform elongation in tension, it is highlighted that this phase has a very high strain-hardening which increases with carbon content and a large Bauschinger effect. Because usual dislocation storage can not explain reasonably this particular behaviour, an approach based on…
The development of low-cost processes for hydrogen production from renewable energy is of tremendous importance for a truly sustainable hydrogen-based energy system. In this article, we demonstrate the ability to utilize sunlight to produce hydrogen from a potentially low-cost and abundant biomass derivative, glucose,…
Solar cells involving organic small molecules and polymers have attracted intense attention from chemists, physicists and materials scientists in the past decade. Efforts in materials synthesis and device processing have led to significant improvement of the power conversion efficiency, approaching 10%. In organic sol…
Packed-bed microreactors are employed under flow conditions for studies of heterogeneous catalysis: oxidation of 4-isopropylbenzaldehyde and hydrogenation of 2-methylfuran. They have been demonstrated to be a valuable platform for rapid screening of catalytic materials, efficient optimization of reaction conditions, i…
This work reveals a facile, one-pot synthesis of phosphinated bisphenols (1–2) from a nucleophilic addition of 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene 10-oxide (DOPO) to diaminophenylmethane- and diaminophenylether-based benzoxazines (P-ddm and P-oda). A reaction mechanism including active hydrogen abstraction, ring…
It is widely accepted that platinum(IV) complexes act as prodrugs and have to be activated by reduction to the respective platinum(II) analogs. Recently it could be shown that introduction of lipophilic carboxylato ligands in the axial position leads to diaminedichloridoplatinum(IV) compounds with exceptionally high c…
A number of novel, water-stable redox-active cobalt complexes of the C-functionalized tripodal ligands tris(pyrazolyl)methane XC(pz)(3) (X = HOCH(2), CH(2)OCH(2)Py or CH(2)OSO(2)Me) are reported along with their effects on DNA. The compounds were isolated as air-stable solids and fully characterized by IR and FIR spec…
A solution-processed vanadium oxide (s-VO(x)) anode buffer layer on an indium-tin-oxide (ITO) electrode was used instead of PEDOT:PSS for improving the stability and photovoltaic performance of the polymer solar cells (PSCs). The s-VO(x) layer was prepared by spin-coating a vanadyl acetylacetonate (VO(acac)(2)) isopro…
Our group recently prepared a hybrid catalyst containing a rhodium complex, Rh(Cp)(cod), with a maleimide moiety at the peripheral position of the Cp ligand. This compound was then inserted into a β-barrel protein scaffold of a mutant of aponitrobindin (Q96C) via a covalent linkage. The hybrid protein is found to act…
