Rigid p-octiphenyl rods were used to create helical tetrameric p-stacks of blue, red-fluorescent naphthalene diimides that can span lipid bilayer membranes. In lipid vesicles containing quinone as electron acceptors and surrounded by ethylenediaminetetraac ...
The recent upsurge of interest in contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging, of luminescent chemosensors for medical diagnostic, and lately, for optical imaging of cells has generated an impressive momentum for the coordination and supramolecular chem ...
The title cyclophanes, such as I, were prepd. via a Ugi-4CR four component reaction and subsequent macrocyclization of the resulting amides using intramol. SNAr reactions. [on SciFinder (R)] ...
Two unsymmetrical ditopic hexadentate ligands designed for the simultaneous recognition of two different trivalent lanthanide ions have been synthesized, LAB2 and LAB3, where A represents a tridentate benzimidazole-pyridinebenzimidazole coordination unit, ...
We characterize the superionic phase transition and the lattice and electronic structures of the archetypal type-I superionic conductor alpha-AgI using extensive first-principles molecular dynamics calculations. We find that superionicity is signaled by a ...
Incorrect folding of proteins, leading to aggregation and amyloid formation, is associated with a group of degenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease and late onset diabetes. Amyloid forming proteins are believed to be mainly α-helical in their na ...
The controlled self-assembly of thiol stabilized gold nanocrystals in a mediating solvent and confined within mesoporous alumina was probed in situ with small angle x-ray scattering. The evolution of the self-assembly process was controlled reversibly via ...
A ruthenium meso-tetra[4-(vinylbenzoxy)benzyl]porphyrin catalyst with four polymerizable side chains was synthesized in three steps from commercially available starting materials. The polymerizable side chains allowed the incorporation of this complex in h ...
Nanometer light source: Interaction between high-affinity binding sites on lipid-coated nanocrystals (NCs) and different proteins enables the controlled formation of supramol. nanostructures on micropatterned surfaces. The NCs serve as local light sources ...
Diamine molecules were used to chemically direct the assembly of carboxylic acid terminated monolayer protected gold nanoparticles onto Au surfaces patterned with mercapto-hexadecanoic-acid by microcontact printing or dip pen nanolithography. ...
