Five different types of β-diketiminate ligands, bearing electron-donating to strongly electron-withdrawing substituents, were synthesized and used in the synthesis of Cp* ruthenium complexes (Cp* = η5-C5Me5). One series consists of complexes with a covalen ...
Polyoxometalates (POMs) are desirable in materials applications ranging from uses as catalysts in selective oxidn. reactions to mol.-like building blocks for the prepn. of new extended solids. Using an unprecedented approach involving high temp., molten sa ...
Two dinuclear oxo-bridged organogold(III) compounds, namely [(N,N,C)(2)Au-2(mu-O)]PF6 (with N,N,CH = 6-(1-methylbenzyl)-2,2'-bipyridine, Au(2)O1; or 6-(1,1-dimethylbenzyl)-2,2'-bipyridine, Au(2)O2), were previously prepared and characterised. Their so ...
An octadentate ligand based on triazacyclononane and 8-hydroxyquinolinate/ phenolate binding units leads to very soluble, highly stable lanthanide complexes. The monoaquagadolinium complex shows a high relaxivity as a result of the unusually long rotationa ...
Gold metallodrugs form a class of promising antiproliferative agents showing a high propensity to react with proteins. We exploit here X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) methods [both X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) and extended X-ray abso ...
Quantum dots (QDs) are ideal scaffolds for the development of multimodal imaging agents, but their application in clinical diagnostics is limited by the toxicity of classical CdSe QDs. A new bimodal MRI/optical nanosized contrast agent with high gadolinium ...
The four-electron reduction of oxygen by tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) in acidified 1,2-dichloroethane and at the acidified water/1,2-dichloroethane interface has been observed. Spectroscopy and ion transfer voltammetry results suggest that the reaction proceed ...
The reaction of hydrated lanthanide hexafluoroacetylacetonates, [Ln(hfa)(3)(H2O)(2)], with 1,4-disubstituted benzenes afforded a new series of one-dimensional coordination polymers Ln(hfa)(3)(Q), where Ln = Eu, Gd, Tb, and Lu and Q = 1,4-diacet ...
This thesis is devoted to the study of oxygen reduction reaction catalysed by porphyrins at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES). Electrochemical and spectrophotometric techniques are introduced to these interfaces in order to ...
