چکیده

We report the first Hg(2+) selective hydrogelation by 4'-[4-(4-aminophenyl)phenyl]-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine. The gel showed remarkable response towards specific chemical agents such as benzo-18-crown-6 ether and K(+) which enabled extensive modulation of the gel morphology.

Target-triggered cascade assembly of a catalytic network as an artificial enzyme for highly efficient sensing.

Determining the catalytic activity of artificial enzymes is an ongoing challenge. In this work, we design a porphyrin-based enzymatic network through the target-triggered cascade assembly of catalytic nanoparticles. The nanoparticles are synthesized via the covalent binding of hemin to amino-coated gold nanoparticles and then the axial coordination of the Fe center with a dual-functional imidaz...

One-dimensional self-assembly of a water soluble perylene diimide molecule by pH triggered hydrogelation.

A water soluble perylene diimide molecule has been fabricated into nanofibers via a pH triggered hydrogelation route. The one-dimensional self-assembly is dominated by the intermolecular π-π stacking interactions in concert with the hydrogen bonding between the carboxylic acid side chains. The anisotropic electronic and optical properties observed for the nanofibers are consistent with the one-...

Phenylthiourea Modified Highly Ordered Nanoporous Silica for Heavy Metal Ion (Hg2+ ) Trapping

The phenylthiourea-substituted triethoxysilane as a silane agent was synthesized and grafted on highly ordered nanoporous silica (LUS- 1) with a textured morphology and hexagonal array. This material (Tu-LUS-1) contained 0.8 mmol/g of soft base phenylthiourea group and surface area 760 m2 g-1  and was able to adsorb 0.75 mmolHg/g of TU-LUS-1 in endothermic reaction.

Hg2+ -selective chromogenic and fluorogenic chemodosimeter based on thiocoumarins.

The highly selective chemodosimetric behavior of thiocoumarins toward Hg(2+) ions was investigated; significant chromogenic and fluorogenic signaling of Hg(2+) ions occurs from the transformation of thiocoumarin to coumarin by Hg(2+)-induced selective desulfurization.

Ultraselective fluorescent sensing of Hg2+ through metal coordination-induced molecular aggregation.

A new type of fluorescent sensor has been developed from a perylene based molecule, N,N'-dideoxythymidine-3,4,9,10-perylene-tetracarboxylic diimide (TT-PTCDI); the strong, highly selective binding between the thymine ligand (T) and Hg2+ ion enables efficient sensing of mercury ions based on a fluorescence quenching mechanism, which is primarily caused by metal-coordination induced molecular agg...
