A number of redox-active coordination polymers (CPs) or metal- organic frameworks (MOFs) have been successfully synthesized using transition metals and bridging ligands. This article aims to deal with gathering the aforementioned disperse issues regarding the electroactive CPs. It also goes towards illustrating the effects of various factors on the electrochemical behavior of CPs including...

The terpyridine anthracene ligand was synthesized and characterized. is a ratiometric fluorescent probe for Cd(2+) with a recognition mechanism based on intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). An complex was isolated, and its structure was established using single-crystal XRD. The complex was able to serve as a novel reversible chemosensing ensemble to allow ratiometric response to pyrophosphate ...

A solid phase extraction procedure for simultaneous separation and preconcentration of traceamounts of Cu+2 ion from various real samples prior to its determination by flame atomicabsorption spectrometry has been developed. The proposed method is based on the utilization ofmultiwalled carbon nanotube in combination with Cupferron ligand as a solid phaseextractant. The influences of the analytic...

A major problem in structure-based virtual screening applications is the appropriate selection of a single or even multiple protein structures to be used in the virtual screening process. A priori it is unknown which protein structure(s) will perform best in a virtual screening experiment. We investigated the performance of ensemble docking, as a function of ensemble size, for eight targets of ...

The article suggests an algorithm for regular classifier ensemble methodology. The proposed methodology is based on possibilistic aggregation to classify samples. The argued method optimizes an objective function that combines environment recognition, multi-criteria aggregation term and a learning term. The optimization aims at learning backgrounds as solid clusters in subspaces of the high...

Background and Objectives: According to the random nature of heuristic algorithms, stability analysis of heuristic ensemble classifiers has particular importance. Methods: The novelty of this paper is using a statistical method consists of Plackett-Burman design, and Taguchi for the first time to specify not only important parameters, but also optimal levels for them. Minitab and Design Expert ...

A fluxional bis-monodentate ligand, based on the archetypal shape-shifting molecule bullvalene, self-assembles with M2+ (M=Pd2+ or Pt2+) to produce a highly complex ensemble of permanently coordination cages. Metal-mediated self-assembly selects for an M2L4 architecture while maintaining ligand complexity. second level simplification is achieved guest-exchange; binding halides within cage mixtu...
