This paper presents the currently available experimental evidence for the occurrence of chiral resolution in bent-core nematic liquid crystals. The observation of chiral domains in these systems is discussed in context with other indications for the unique character of the nematic phase in bent-core materials, which c…

Emulsification of various common oils was investigated using natural β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and its derivatives as emulsifiers. An oil/water (O/W) emulsion was formed using β-CD, whereas a water/oil (W/O) emulsion was formed using tripropanoyl-β-CD and tributanoyl-β-CD derivatives. Triacetyl-β-CD gave rise to both O/W…

A europium probe for the ratiometric detection of potassium in water is presented. This probe demonstrates high sensitivity, with an affinity for K(+) in the mM range, and high selectivity for K(+) over Na(+), Ca(2+), Mg(2+) and Li(+). The long luminescence lifetime of the probe and its large Stokes shift further enab…
