Surprising Complexity of the [Gd(AAZTA)(H2O)2]− Chelate Revealed by NMR in the Frequency and Time Domains
(American Chemical Society, 2021-12-10)
[Abstract] Typically, Ln(III) complexes are isostructural along the series, which enables studying one particular metal chelate to derive the structural features of the others. This is not the case for [Ln(AAZTA)(H2O)x]− ...
Enhanced Photocatalytic Degradation of the Imidazolinone Herbicide Imazapyr upon UV/Vis Irradiation in the Presence of CaᵪMnOᵧ-TiO₂ Hetero-Nanostructures: Degradation Pathways and Reaction Intermediates
(MDPI, 2020-05-08)
[Abstract] The determination of reaction pathways and identification of products of pollutants degradation is central to photocatalytic environmental remediation. This work focuses on the photocatalytic degradation of the ...
Expanding the Ligand Classes Used for Mn(II) Complexation: Oxa-aza Macrocycles Make the Difference
(MDPI, 2021-03-10)
[Abstract] We report two macrocyclic ligands based on a 1,7-diaza-12-crown-4 platform functionalized with acetate (𝑡O2DO2A²⁻) or piperidineacetamide (𝑡O2DO2AMᴾⁱᵖ) pendant arms and a detailed characterization of the ...
Europium(III) Macrocyclic Chelates Appended with Tyrosine-based Chromophores and Di-(2-picolyl)amine-based Receptors: Turn-On Luminescent Chemosensors Selective to Zinc(II) Ions
(Wiley, 2020-01-22)
[Abstract] Zinc ions play an important role in many biological processes in the human body. To selectively detect Zn²⁺, two EuDO3A‐based complexes (DO3A=1,4,7,10‐tetraazacyclododecane‐1,4,7‐tricarboxylic acid) appended ...
Defining the Conditions for the Development of the Emerging Class of Feᴵᴵᴵ-Based MRI Contrast Agents
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-07-26)
[Abstract] Fe(III) complexes are attracting growing interest in chemists developing diagnostic probes for Magnetic Resonance Imaging because they leverage on an endogenous metal and show superior stability. However, in ...
Viologen–cucurbituril host/guest chemistry – redox control of dimerization versus inclusion
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-09-02)
[Abstract] Two calix[4]arene systems, C234+ and C244+ – where 2 corresponds to the number of viologen units and 3–4 corresponds to the number of carbon atoms connecting the viologen units to the macrocyclic core – have ...
Introducing Hyaluronic Acid into Supramolecular Polymers and Hydrogels
(American Chemical Society, 2021-10-18)
[Abstract] The use of supramolecular polymers to construct functional biomaterials is gaining more attention due to the tunable dynamic behavior and fibrous structures of supramolecular polymers, which resemble those found ...
Understanding the Effect of the Electron Spin Relaxation on the Relaxivities of Mn(II) Complexes with Triazacyclononane Derivatives
(American Chemical Society, 2021-10-07)
[Abstract] Investigating the relaxation of water ¹H nuclei induced by paramagnetic Mn(II) complexes is important to understand the mechanisms that control the efficiency of contrast agents used in diagnostic magnetic ...
Mechanical Stability Is Key for Large-Scale Implementation of Photocatalytic Surface-Attached Film Technologies in Water Treatment
(Frontiers, 2021-10-18)
[Abstract] Replacement of classical tertiary water treatment by chemical-free sunlight-driven photocatalytic units has been often proposed. Photocatalysts are required to be cost-effective, inert, chemically stable, reusable, ...
Effect of Ionizing Radiation on Human Myeloperoxidase: Reaction With Hydrated Electrons
(Elsevier, 2021-11-27)
[Abstract] Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a myeloid-lineage restricted enzyme largely expressed in the azurophilic granules of neutrophils. It catalyses the formation of reactive oxygen species, mainly hypochlorous acid, ...
