Self-assembled palladium and platinum coordination cages: Photophysical studies and anticancer activity

Self-assembled coordination cages are interesting as drug delivery systems. Therefore, the synthesis of new M2L4 (M = Pd, Pt) molecular cages, derived from highly fluorescent, rigid polyaromatic ligands is reported and the first Pt2L4 cage with a ligand consisting of three pyridine moieties is described. Photophysical properties were examined showing high quantum yields  of up to 48% for the m...

The effects of fish culture in floating cages on the seabed sediments and macrobenthos community in the southern Caspian Sea, Kelarabad

This study has been in order to investigate the effects of cage culture in the south of the Caspian Sea, Kelarabad. Sampling was in three direction of cages, East, West and South (the coast of Caspian Sea). For this purpose, four stations on each side of the cages was considered in terms of distance, the shadow (5 meters) to a distance of 1000 meters cages (control). Grain size analysis shows, ...

A Triphasic Sorting System: Coordination Cages in Ionic Liquids.

Host-guest chemistry is usually carried out in either water or organic solvents. To investigate the utility of alternative solvents, three different coordination cages were dissolved in neat ionic liquids. By using (19) F NMR spectroscopy to monitor the presence of free and bound guest molecules, all three cages were demonstrated to be stable and capable of encapsulating guests in ionic solutio...

Calculation of Thermodynamic Parameters of [2.4.6] Three Nitro Toluene (TNT) with Nanostructures of Fullerene and Boron Nitride Nano-cages over Different Temperatures, Using Density Functional Theory

In this study explosive substance [2.4.6] three Nitro Toluene (TNT) was attached with nanostructures of fullerene (C24) and boron nitride nano-cages (B12N12). After that using B3LYP (Becke, three-parameter, Lee-Yang-Parr), a method from density functional theory (DFT), thermodynamic parameters of TNT with foregoing nanostructures, in different conditions of temperature, were computed. To this a...
