in the present study, we investigated the effect of a new anticancer pd(ii) complex, 1,10-phenanthroline-n-butyl dithiocarbamato pd(ii) nitrate, on the heme releasing from human hemoglobin (hb) as well as alterations in the structure and function of hb using different spectroscopic methods of uv-vis, fluorescence and circular dichroism (cd)at two temperatures of 25 and 37 °c. fluorescence data ...

Layers of thiophenol functionalized spherical gold nanoparticles grafted on Si(100) are probed by linear UV-vis, Fourier transform infrared and nonlinear infrared-visible vibrational sum/difference–frequency generation spectroscopies as a function of the nanoparticles surface coverage. Depending on the dipping time (5 min, 20 min, 1 h, and 24 h) in the colloidal solution, AFM imaging corroborat...

the present study concentrates on the synthesis of au nanoparticles (aunps) using aqueous solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone (pvp) and tetrachloroaurate by different methods as thermal, sonochemical and electrochemical reduction. the pvp has been used as a reducing agent and acts as a stabilizer for au nano particles that obtained as principal product. in all synthesis procedures, the active radi...

the main objective of this research was to synthesize and characterize gold-coated fe3o4 /sio2 nanoshells for clinical applications. magnetite nanoparticles (nps) were prepared via co-precipitation. the results showed that smaller particles can be synthesized by decreasing the naoh concentration, which in our case this corresponded to 35 nm by using 0.9 m of naoh at 750 rpm. the nps were then m...

[1]Zirconametalloarenophanes [Cr(η(5)-C(5)H(4))ZrCp'(2)(η(7)-C(7)H(6))] and [Mn(η(5)-C(5)H(4))ZrCp'(2)(η(6)-C(6)H(5))] (Cp' = C(5)H(4)(t)Bu) have been isolated for the first time. These species represent potential precursors en route to metal-enriched metallopolymers by ROP. The electronic structure was assessed by means of UV-visible spectroscopy and TD-DFT calculations.

In this paper, we report a method for the construction of multi-ferrocenyl spiroborate assemblies from discrete mono- and di-ferrocenyl complexes. To prepare the building blocks for the spiroborate assemblies, 4-ferrocenylveratrole (1) and 4,5-diferrocenylveratrole (3) were first synthesized by Negishi cross-coupling between ferrocene and the corresponding aryl halides. Compounds 1 and 3 were c...
