The paper presents and summarizes some research on constant magnetic field effects in chemistry. Metals and alloys electrodeposited under constant magnetic field have greater thickness and smoother surface with finest grains. Metallic materials deposited under the influence of uniform magnetic field may have stronger corrosion resistance, than those obtained without the presence of magnetic field. Constant magnetic field also causes an increase of the electropolymerization rate and yield of some organic reactions. Our research also shows that the presence of constant magnetic field affects the electrodeposition process of alloys and their morphology to a great extent. The effects of magnetic field on metals, alloys, composites, polymers and other materials are due to the Lorentz force and the magnetohydrodynamic effect. It is possible that the further development of magnetoelectrodeposition will allow for using the constant magnetic field to improve the properties of metal coatings, alloys, polymers, and other materials in the industry.
Bioimaging techniques that allow the visualization of ferrocene in living cells do not exist. This work addresses this challenging problem, and a new indirect approach for the bioimaging of ferrocenyl compounds in living and fixed cells is proposed. It is based on the structural similarity of metallocenyl (ferrocenyl and ruthenocenyl) groups to their metal-free [2.2]paracyclophanyl congeners. Three adequately designed compounds were obtained. They share a 5-(1-ethynylpyrenyl)-uracil group as a common structural motif and differ in their three-dimensional aromatic substituents, namely, [2.2]paracyclophanyl, ferrocenyl and ruthenocenyl. The first substituent allows pyrenyl luminescence to occur, whereas the latter two act as quenchers. The accumulation of the luminescent derivative
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.
