A metal organic framework (MOF) (1), having the formula [Cu(4,4′-bipy)(sa)] n (where 4,4′-bipy is 4,4′-bipyridine and sa is succinate dianion), has been synthesized under ambient conditions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The surface of the MOF mimics a 2D honeycomb structure. The uncoordinated oxygen of succinate dianion has been explored for its interaction with toxic pesticides by theoretical density functional theory analysis, and it reveals the selective identification of atrazine-and dicofol-like pesticides. The rational design of Cu 2+ MOFs with aliphatic acid is the key factor toward the identification of pesticides, as the same MOF background with Cd 2+ does not show any significant interaction.
We report here three mononuclear Ni(II) complexes, namely, [Ni(L1)2] (1), [Ni(L2)2] (2) and [Ni(L3)2] (3) where HL1 =1-((4-hydroxybutylimino)methyl)napthalen-2-ol, HL2 = 1-((5-hydroxypentylimino)methylnapthalen-2-ol and HL3 = 1-((6-hydroxyhexylimino)methyl)napthalen-2-ol as the electrocatalyst for hydrogen...
Two 4-methyl-2,6-diformylphenol based compounds with pyridylamine have been established as chemosensors for pH. The probes are able to differentiate between normal cells and cancer cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
