چکیده

Photoswitching of bis(dithiazole)ethene can be regulated by Hg(II) ions and EDTA in a "lock-and-unlock" manner. The molecular photoswitch provides an enzyme-like binding pocket that selectively binds specifically to mercury ions, thus modulating the degree of photoswitching in its presence.

Quantitative photoswitching in bis(dithiazole)ethene enables modulation of light for encoding optical signals.

Using one ray of light to encode another ray of light is highly desirable because information in optical format can be directly transferred from one beam to another without converting back to the electronic format. One key medium to accomplish such an amazing task is photoswitchable molecules. Using bis(dithiazole)ethene that can be photoswitched between its ring-open and ring-closed states qua...

Design and Evaluation of a Mercury (II) Optode Based on Immobilization of 5, 6 Di methyl -1- (4 methyl benzyl) -2- para tolyl-1H-benzimidazole (DMBPTBI) on a Triacetylcellulose Membrane and Determination in Various Samples

The characterization of an optical sensor membrane is described for the determination of Hg2+ ions based on the immobilization of 5, 6 Di methyl -1- ( 4 methyl benzyl) -2- para tolyl-1H-benzimidazole (DMBPTBI) on a triacetylcellulose membrane. The membrane responds to mercury ions by changing color reversibly from orange to red in universal buffer solution at pH 2. Under optimum conditions, the...

Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Antibacterial Evaluation of Di-μ-chlorido-bis({2-[(4-methoxyphenyl)- iminomethyl]pyridine-κ2N,N']Mercury(II)

New coordination polymer of [HgLCl2]n (1) with HgCl2 and Schiff base bidentate ligand (4-methoxyphenyl) pyridine-2yl methyleneamine (L) was prepared and structurally characterized. In the 1D network structure of 1, the mecury (II) ion adopts an HgN2Cl3 distorted square pyramid geometry. In this complex, one of the chlorine acts as bridging ligand connecting two adjacent mercury(II) ions while, ...
