Ortho-Phenylene bis-ureas serve as anionophores in cells expressing halide-sensitive yellow fluorescent protein, as well as in synthetic vesicles. Activities can reach high levels, and are strongly dependent on the deliverability of the transporters.

By introducing a third arm with two anionic carboxylate groups, a water-soluble bis(m-phenylene)-32-crown-10-based cryptand was synthesized. Its pH-controlled host-guest complexation with a paraquat derivative in water was studied.

in this work, the interfacial interfacial polymerization (ip) technique was employed using terephthaloyl chloride (tpc) and p-phenylenediamine (ppd), as reactant monomers, to prepare poly(paraphenylene terephthalamide) thin film composite (tfc) nanofiltration on polyethersulphone (pes) support layer. the effects of six different anionic and non-ionic surfactants, in the aqueous phase on the mor...

A series of poly(phenylene-vinylene)s (PPV) was synthesized with two monomer building blocks containing methoxy and 2-ethylhexyloxy (MEH) sidechains sterically bulky fluorenyloxy sidechain. Variations in incorporation were achieved by...

Poly(terephthalamide) microcapsules can be reproducibly and easily prepared by interfacial polycondensation around emulsion droplets in water. Oil drops of cyclohexane/chloroform mixture stabilized with poly(vinyl alcohol) containing terephthaloylchloride serve as soft template. The interfacial polycondensation starts immediately after addition of an amine mixture (hexamethylenediamine/diethyle...

The Wiener matrix and the hyper-Wiener number of a tree (acyclic structure), higher Wiener numbers of a tree that can be represented by a Wiener number sequence W, W,W.... whereW = W is the Wiener index, and R W k K    ,.... 2 , 1 is the hyper-Wiener number. The concepts of the Wiener vector and hyper-Wiener vector of a graph are introduced for the molecular graph of bi-phenylene. Moreover, ...

The effects of zeolite type, ion-exchanged level, and ion type on the electrical conductivity responses of poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV), doped poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (dPPV) and zeolite composites under CO exposures were investigated. The electrical sensitivity of dPPV/Cu-ZSM5(Si/Al = 23) system shows a negative sensitivity value of −0.154, while the Na system gives a positive sensitivit...

Highly monodisperse 1,3-phenylene-bridged hybrid organosilica spheres (m-PHS) were synthesized by co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and 1,3-bis(triethoxysilyl)benzene (1,3-BTEB) using dodecylamine (DDA) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as templates. In this method, three important factors are the surfactants, the ethanol–water volume ratio and the TEOS/1,3-BTEB molar ratio. T...
