In vivo X-ray microtomography locally affects stem radial growth with no immediate physiological impact

Pascal Turberg, Charlotte Grossiord, Laura Mekarni, Hervé Cochard

Microcomputed tomography (mu CT) is a nondestructive X-ray imaging method used in plant physiology to visualize in situ plant tissues that enables assessments of embolized xylem vessels. Whereas evidence for X-ray-induced cellular damage has been reported, ...

Beware of beam damage under reaction conditions: X-ray induced photochemical reduction of supported VOx catalysts during in situ XAS experiments

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Anna Zabilska, Olga Safonova

In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a powerful technique for the investigation of heterogeneous catalysts and electrocatalysts. The obtained XAS spectra are usually interpreted from the point of view of the investigated chemical processes, there ...

Schiff base ligands derived from 1,2-bis(2 '-nitro-/amino-phenoxy)-3-R-benzene and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde and their Cu/Zn(II) complexes: synthesis, characterization, X-ray structures and computational studies

Rosario Scopelliti

1,2-Bis(2'-nitrophenoxy)-3-R-benzenes {R = H (1), CH3 (2) and OCH3 (3)} have been prepared from the S-N-Ar reaction between 1-fluoro-2-nitrobenzene and 3-R-catechol (aromatic diol), and are then reduced to the corresponding diamines 1,2-bis(2'-aminophenoxy ...

Thioether-Functionalized Quinone-Based Resorcin[4]arene Cavitands: Electroswitchable Molecular Actuators

Jovana Milic, Quy Ong Khac, Nils Trapp, Thomas Schneeberger

The utility of molecular actuators in nanoelectronics requires activation of mechanical motion by electric charge at the interface with conductive surfaces. We functionalized redox-active resorcin[4]arene-quinone cavitands with thioethers as surface-anchor ...

Experimental station Bernina at SwissFEL: condensed matter physics on femtosecond time scales investigated by X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic methods

Christopher Alexander Arrell, Christoph Peter Hauri, Paul Beaud, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Jochen Rittmann

The Bernina instrument at the SwissFEL Aramis hard X-ray free-electron laser is designed for studying ultrafast phenomena in condensed matter and material science. Ultrashort pulses from an optical laser system covering a large wavelength range can be used ...

On isothermality in some commonly used plug flow reactors for X-ray based investigations of catalysts

Dragos-Constantin Stoian, Mark Adrian Newton

We compare two reactor setups commonly used to make operando measurements of catalyst behavior using X-rays in terms of the degree to which they may be considered to yield radial and axial isothermality. We use axial and radial Cu K-edge XANES mapping of c ...

Stereocontrolled Self-Assembly and Self-Sorting of Luminescent Europium Tetrahedral Cages

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Coordination-directed self-assembly has become a well-established technique for the construction of functional supramolecular structures. In contrast to the most often exploited transition metals, trivalent lanthanides Ln(III) have been less utilized in th ...

Synthesis, Molecular Structure and Cytotoxicity of Molecular Materials Based on Water Soluble Half-Sandwich Rh(III) and Ir(III) Tetranuclear Metalla-Cycles

Paul Joseph Dyson, Benjamin Samuel Murray

The neutral dinuclear complexes [(eta(5)-C5Me5)(2)Rh-2(mu-dhnq)Cl-2] (1) and [(eta(5)-C5Me5)(2)Ir-2(mu-dhnq)Cl-2] (2) (dhnqH(2) = 5,8-dihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone) were obtained from the reaction of (eta(5)-C5Me5)M(mu-Cl)Cl (M = Rh, Ir) with dhnqH(2) ...
