The chemistry of multinuclear metal complexes bearing by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands, is an area of fast growing interest in modern organometallic chemistry. In particular, complexes supported by mesoionic (MIC)...
A new dinuclear cyclic gold(I) complex [Au2(DCyPA)2](PF6)2, 1 based on bis[2-(dicyclohexylphosphano)ethyl]amine (DCyPA) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and NMR spectroscopies, and X-ray crystallography. In the dinuclear...
Lithium–sulfur batteries (LBSs) have potential to become the future energy storage system, yet they are plagued by the sluggish redox kinetics. Therefore, enhancing the redox kinetics of polysulfide is a...
The iron-catalyzed disproportionation of H2O2 has been investigated for over a century, as has been its ability to induce the oxidation of other species present in the system (Fenton reaction)....
Transition metal materials with high efficiency and durable electrocatalytic water splitting activity have aroused widespread concern among scientists. In this work, two cation co-doped Ni3S4 nanoarrays grown on Ni foam...
Four mononuclear terpyridine complexes [Cu(H-La)Cl2]·CH3OH (1), [Cu(H-La)Cl]ClO4 (2), [Cu(H-Lb)Cl2]·CH3OH (3), and [Cu(H-Lb)(CH3OH)(DMSO)](ClO4)2 (4) were prepared and fully characterized. Complexes 14 exhibited higher cytotoxic activity against several tested cancer cell lines...
A plasma-enhanced ALD process has been developed to deposit nickel phosphate. The process combines a trimethylphosphate (TMP) plasma with an oxygen plasma and nickelocene at a substrate temperature of 300°C....
This is the first report on the synthesis of dendritic systems with double-decker SQs used as cores. A two-step synthetic protocol is presented to obtain G1.5 dendrimers with –SiCH2Cl reactive moieties for easy modification in the next stages.
We report the synthesis of the macrocyclic ligands 3,9 PC2AMH (2,2’-(3,6,9-triaza-1(2,6)-pyridinacyclodecaphane-3,9-diyl)diacetamide) and 3,9-PC2AMtBu (2,2’-(3,6,9-triaza-1(2,6)-pyridinacyclodecaphane-3,9-diyl)bis(N-tert-butyl)acetamide) which contain a pyclen platform functionalized with acetamide or tert-butylacetamide pendant arms at positions 3 and...
