Recent Research Trends for Improving the Stability of Organo/Inorgano Halide Perovskites

Because of their superior optical, and electrical properties, lead halide perovskites have emerged as potential materials for light-emitting-diodes. However, some obstacles have yet to be overcome for practical applications including low exciton binding energy, the difficulty of fabricating uniform perovskite films,, and their instability to heat, light, and moisture. In this review, we focus on strategies to improve the lifetime, and stability of perovskites such as core-shell structure, ligand exchange, and doping.

Enhancing the peroxidase-like activity of MIL-88B by ligand exchange with polydopamine

Metal-organic framework (MOF) as nanozymes has been widely used in biosensing. However, MOF has inherent defects of easy agglomeration, leading to stacking of active surfaces. In addition, the low conductivity...

Heterobimetallic Uranyl(VI) Alkoxides of Lanthanoids: Formation through simple ligand exchange

Lanthanoid and actinoid silylamides are versatile starting materials. Herein we show how a simple ligand exchange with tert-butanol leads to the formation of the first trimeric heterobimetallic uranyl(VI)-lanthanoid(III) alkoxide complexes....

Investigations on Reactivity, Stability and Biological Activity of Halido (NHC)gold(I) Complexes

The significance of the halido ligand (Cl-, Br-, I-) in halido[3-ethyl-4-phenyl-5-(2-methoxypyridin-5-yl)-1-propyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazol-2-ylidene]gold(I) complexes (2, 3, 4) in terms of ligand exchange reactions, including the ligand scrambling to the bis[3-ethyl-4-phenyl-5-(2-methoxypyridin-5-yl)-1-propyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazol-2-ylidene]gold(I) complex (5)...

Ligand exchange in zirconocene dichloride–diethylzinc bimetallic systems

The reaction between zirconocene dichloride and excess diethylzinc in d-6-benzene solution was studied. It was found that the exchange reaction between Cp2ZrCl2 and Et2Zn is accompanied by the formation of such complexes as bis-(cyclopentadienyl)ethylzirconium chloride (EtZrCp2Cl), a zirconium-organozinc complex, and bis-(cyclopentadienyl)diethylzirconium (Et2ZrCp2). It was also found that as a result of ligand exchange in zirconocene dichloride–diethylzinc bimetallic systems, the zirconium-organozinc complex is formed in minor amounts. An assessment of the thermodynamic stability of the obtained products is given based on the results of DFT analysis. The description of the NMR spectral data of the obtained organozirconium complexes is carried out.
