A novel copper ion sensing fluorescent probe for fast detection of pyrophosphate and alkaline phosphatase

A Cu²⁺ sensing fluorescent probe is synthesized via a Mannich reaction and is applied in the fluorescence detection of pyrophosphate and alkaline phosphatase.

Designing antiferromagnetically coupled mono-, di- and tri-bridged copper(ii)-based catecholase models by varying the ‘Auxiliary Parts’ of the ligand and anionic co-ligand

The role of the auxiliary part of ligands towards the architecture of copper(ii)-based catecholase models were unveiled with the help of DFT study.

Anion-mediated bio-relevant catalytic activity of dinuclear nickel(ii) complexes derived from an end-off compartmental ligand

The role of anions towards the catalytic activities of antiferromagnetically coupled dinuclear nickel(ii) complexes having end-off compartmental ligand was unveiled.

Classical hydrogen bonding and stacking of chelate rings in new copper(ii) complexes

Three new copper(ii) complexes, viz., [Cu(L)(NO₃)(H₂O)]H₂O 1, [Cu(L)(H₂O)₂]NO₃2 and [Cu₂(L)₂(pyrazine)](ClO₄)₂·4H₂O 3, were prepared using a biomimetic synthesis strategy [HL = 4-chloro-2-{(E)-[2-(pyridin-2-yl)hydrazinylidene]methyl}phenol]. In complex 3, stacking of chelates rings was observed.

Nuclearity dependent solvent contribution to the catechol oxidase activity of novel copper(ii) complexes derived from Mannich-base ligand platforms: synthesis, crystal structure and mechanism

Solvent-dependent kinetic studies of the catecholase activity of a set of Cu(ii) complexes reveal alcoholysis and hydrolysis as the governing factors for k_cat extrema.

Catecholase activity of Mannich-based dinuclear CuII complexes with theoretical modeling: new insight into the solvent role in the catalytic cycle

Catecholase activity has been explored by combined experimental and theoretical approaches using di-copper(ii) complexes of Mannich-base ligands.

Assembly of composites into a core–shell structure using ultrasonic spray drying and catalytic application in the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate

The (3,5-DNB)FeCo and (3,5-DNB)FeCu micro-nanospheres with core–shell structure are prepared by ultrasonic spray drying. The DSC curves indicate that (3,5-DNB)M·M′s with various mixed ratio have different effects on AP thermal decomposition.
