Synthesis and characterization of a new macrocyclic compound, composed by a triethylentetraamine chain linking the 4 and 5 positions of an acridine moiety, are reported. The molecule, devised as a fluorescent chemosensor for anions, has revealed an intriguing pH-dependent spectroscopic behavior, whose features are the specific object of this article. Ligand protonation in aqueous solution has b...

A series of dithia[3.3]metaparacyclophane-based monometal ruthenium acetylide complexes have been synthesized. All of the complexes have been fully characterised by NMR spectrometry, X-ray crystallography and elemental analyses. At the same time, their basic optical properties, such as UV/Vis absorption spectra, and electrochemical properties have been determined. (1)H NMR and X-ray crystal str...

The polyaniline/single-walled carbon nanotubes (PANI/SWNTs) composites with a content of SWNTs varying from 8 wt% to 32 wt% were synthesized using a solid-state synthesis method. The structure and morphology of the samples were characterized by fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy...

Highly crystalline and pure lithium metasilicate (Li2SiO3) and lithium disilicate (Li2Si2O5) nanomaterials were synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by PXRD technique. The changes in the morphology and particle size of the synthesized nanomaterials with reaction time were investigated using SEM technique. The UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectra of the compounds were studied. Th...

Cu(I) catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactivity was successfully employed to synthesize three donor-acceptor energy transfer (EnT) arrays that contain one (Dyad), three (Tetrad) and four (Pentad) 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) donors connected to a Zn-tetraphenylporphyrin acceptor via 1,2,3-triazole linkages. The photophysical properties of the three arrays, a...

The solid-state method was applied for synthesizing polyaniline (PANI)/noble metal hybrid materials with the presence of HAuCl4·4H2O or H2PtCl6·6H2O in the reaction medium. The structure, morphology, and electrochemical activity of the composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, UV-visible (vis) absorption spectra, energy dispersive spectrum (EDS), X-ray powder d...

High-throughput imaging of protein crystallization experiments with ultraviolet (UV) light has recently become commercially available and can enable crystallographers to differentiate between crystals of protein and those of salt, as the visualization of protein crystals is based on intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence. Unfortunately, UV imaging is not a panacea, as some protein crystals will not ...

This data article contains complementary figures and results related to the research article entitled, "Cellular localization of iron(II) polypyridyl complexes determines their anticancer action mechanisms" [1] (Chen et al., 2015). The characterization of Fe(II) complexes by ESI-MS, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR spectroscopy, FT-IR spectra, UV-vis spectra was provided. Also,the data for the stability of ...

Catechin belongs to a group of flavonoids, which are present in many fruits and plants. Catechin is often employed in model investigations on antioxidant behavior of flavonoids. Recently also some anti-disease properties of flavonoids were reported. In this paper investigations were carried out on alumina/(+ )-catechin solution system. FTIR spectra were taken for the catechin samples retaken fr...

SrWO(4) powders were synthesized by the co-precipitation method and processed in a microwave-hydrothermal (MH) at 140 degrees C for different times. The obtained powders were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), micro-Raman (MR) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, field-emission gun scanning electron microscopy (FEG-SEM), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectr...
