Metal organic supramolecular chemistry on surfaces has matured to a point where its underlying growth mechanisms are well understood and structures of defined coordination environments of metal atoms can be synthesized in a controlled and reproducible proc ...
The syntheses, structures, and magnetic properties of four new complex salts, (PPN){Mn-III(salphen)(MeOH)[M-III(CN)(6)]} 7MeOH (Mn2M 7MeOH) (M = Fe, Ru, Os and Co; PPN+ = bis(triphenylphosphoranylidene)ammonium cation; H2salphen = N,N'-bis(salicyliden ...
Molybdenum sulfide materials had been shown as promising non-precious catalysts for hydrogen evolution. This paper describes the study of the promotional effect of certain transition metal ions on the activity of amorphous MoS3 films. Ternary metal sulfide ...
Sunflower mutant lines with an enhanced tolerance and metal accumulation capacity obtained by mutation breeding have been proposed for Zn, Cd and Cu removal from metal-contaminated soils in previous studies. However, soils contaminated with trace elements ...
Nanostructured metal–insulator–metal (MIM) metasurfaces supporting gap-plasmons (GPs) show great promise due to their ability to manipulate or concentrate light at the nanoscale, which is of importance to a broad palette of technologies. The interaction be ...
Fluorescent sensors are valuable tools for investigating the biochem. of metal cations, notably calcium and zinc. Most probes rely on quenching of photoinduced electron transfer as a fluorescence turn-on mechanism. The information that can be obtained from ...
Hopping along: Metal-organic frameworks such as Mg-MOF-74 possess open metal sites that interact strongly with CO2. Molecular simulations reveal detailed CO2 dynamics (hops between metal sites and localized fluctuations), which can be used to accurately ex ...
This work was focused on the phytoextraction of zinc, copper, zinc oxide and copper oxide by Lolium perenne cultivated in hydroponic conditions, with gibberellic acid (GA) and ethylenediamine-N,N’-disuccinic acid (EDDS) amendments tested separately and in ...
The lack of robust and tunable chiral versions of cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligands hampers progress in the development of catalytic asymmetric versions of a myriad of reactions catalyzed by this ubiquitous ligand. Herein, we describe of a class of chiral Cp l ...
A process for producing a metal article containing at least 10% interconnected porosity, using a preform (11), comprising: mixing an organic binder, a wetting agent and a granular material, to obtain a mouldable paste that combines 10 vol. pct. or more of ...
