Comparison of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) Biouptake by Green Algae in the Presence of Humic Acid

The present study examines the role of humic acid, as a representative of dissolved organic matter, in Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) speciation and biouptake by green microalgae. Cellular and intracellular metal fractions were compared in the presence of citri ...

Stable 8-hydroxyquinolinate-based podates as efficient sensitizers of lanthanide near-infrared luminescence

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Steve Comby

New polydentate ligands (e.g., Tsox and TsoxMe) have been synthesized to take advantage of the chelating effect of bidentate 8-hydroxyquinolinate subunits connected to a N,N,N¢,N¢-tetraaminopropyl-1,2-ethylenediamine framework and with the aim of sensitizi ...

Supramolecular chemistry of 12-Metallacrown-3 complexes

Zacharias Immanuel Grote

12-Metallacrown-3 complexes were formed by self-assembly of organometallic half-sandwich complexes [(π-ligand)MCl2]2 (M = Ru, Rh, Ir) and 3-hydroxy-2-pyridone ligands in the presence of Cs2CO3 as base. Upon mixing of different macrocycles, reversible metal ...

Self-assembly of organometallic macrocycles and cages

Thomas Brasey

Neutral metallamacrocycles with four or ten metal centers were obtained by reaction of [(R3P)PdCl2]2 with 2,3-dihydroxypyridine and derivatives or 2-hydroxynicotinic acid in the presence of base. In all these assemblies, the two O-donor atoms of the ligand ...

Phosphinic derivative of DTPA conjugated to a G5 PAMAM dendrimer: an 17O and 1H relaxation study of its Gd(III) complex

André Merbach, Lothar Helm, Eva Jakab Toth, Petra Lebduskova

A DTPA-based chelate containing one phosphinate group was conjugated to a generation 5 polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer via a benzylthiourea linkage. The Gd(III) complex of this novel conjugate has potential as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imagi ...
