8-Hydroxyquinoline derivative 1 as a fluorescent chemosensor for Zn2+ was synthesized. Because Cd2+ is often found with Zn2+ in the environment and can form fluorescent complexes with chelating fluorophores, a potentially important property of chemosensors for Zn2+ is their selectivity for Zn2+ over Cd2+. The Zn2+ or Cd2+ complexes of 1 gave an emission band from the 1:1 complex, but the fluore...

In this paper, three complexes with 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) were synthesized, their spectral analysis was performed and the antimicrobial effect examined in vitro. The stoichiometric ratio of complex determined conductometrically spectrophotometrically. FTIR UV/VIS spectroscopy used for structural characterization. Antimicrobial activity by diffusion technique on selected gram-positive gram-n...

We examine the effects of three laser direct-write LDW printing techniques on 9-anthracenemethanol and tris 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum Alq3 organic luminophores in order to link the differences in transfer mechanism to the resulting material properties. Degradation can occur where laser light and elevated temperatures are transferred to the molecules, such as those printed via matrix-assisted ...

With the general objective of studying interfaces between ferromagnetic materials and organic semiconductors, we report ac impedance investigations on La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO)/tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum (Alq3)/Al and Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)/Alq3/Al heterostructures, in the frequency range between 20 Hz and 1 MHz. The comparison of the equivalent circuits deduced to fit the experimental ac res...

The exceptional electronic and optical properties of high-quality organic crystals are well known and have been exploited in active electronic and optoelectronic devices such as field-effect transistors, photodetectors and optical modulators. This paper describes a room temperature method for in-plane growth of organic crystal needles from initially amorphous thin films of the molecular organic...

The methods commonly used for precipitating aluminum by 8-hydroxyquinoline from an acetic-acid solution, buffered with ammonium acetate, do not sufficiently define the conditions requisite for complete precipitation. The present article describes a method in which aluminum is precipitated as the oxyquinolate from a solution which has been partially neutralized with ammonium hydroxide, using bro...

A series of dendritic 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) and 5-dialkyl(aryl)aminomethyl-8-HQ derivatives were synthesized and their fluoroionophoric properties toward representative alkali, alkaline earth, group IIIA and transition metal ions were investigated. Among the selected ions, Zn(II) enhanced the fluorescence of N-di-(methoxycarbonylethyl)aminoethyl-3-[4-(8-hydroxyquinolin-5-ylmethyl)piperazin-...

The preparation and characterization of a series of 8-hydroxyquinoline ligands and their complexes with Ti(IV), Al(III) and Zn(II) centres is presented. The complexes are characterized using NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and, in some cases, by single crystal X-ray diffraction experiments. The complexes are compared as initiators for the ring-opening polymerization of racemic-lactide; all...

The reaction o f 1-hydroxyxanthenone (1) and hydroxyquinoline (10, 13) Mannich bases with the reactive phosphacumulated ylides (2), represents a new way for the synthesis o f the pyranones and pyranthiones (5, 11, 14). On the other hand, the stabilized phosphorus ylides (6) affect the transylidation o f the Mannich base (1) to the corresponding phosphoranylidenes (9). The structure o f the resu...

A facile synthesis of a highly preorganized tripodal enterobactine-type ligand 1a-H₃ consisting of a chiral C₃-symmetric macrocyclic peptide and three tridentate 2-amido-8-hydroxyquinoline coordinating units is presented. Complex formation with various metal ions (Al(³+), Ga(³+), Fe(³+), La(³+) and Eu(³+)) was investigated by spectrophotometric methods. Only in the case of La(³+) and Eu(³+) wer...
