Cu(<sc>i</sc>)-doping transforms an inactive Cu(<sc>i</sc>)/Au(<sc>i</sc>) coordination polymer into emissive, reversible solid state sensor for dimethyl- and diethyl sulphide.
Abstract ZnPt(CN) 4 was shown to be an effective material for ammonia sensing, and can synthesized using either solution or mechanochemical methods. A combination of luminescence Raman spectroscopy revealed that multiple species are involved in the reaction between . The crystal structure one these species, Zn(NH 3 ) 2 (Pt(CN) , elucidated. Detection vapor down 50 ppm air accomplished by monitoring spectrum. is reversible, cycled times flowing over heating. also has a relatively high thermal...
Conjugated macromolecules have a rich history in chemistry, owing to their chemical arrangements that intertwine physical and electronic properties. The continuing study application of these systems, however, necessitates the development atomically precise models bridge gap between molecules, polymers, and/or blends. One class conjugated polymers facilitated advancement structure-property relationships is discrete, precision oligomers remained an outstanding synthetic challenge with only...
Abstract Targeting the low‐oxygen (hypoxic) environments found in many tumours by using redox‐active metal complexes is a strategy that can enhance efficacy and reduce side effects of chemotherapies. We have developed series Cu II with tridentate pyridine aminophenolate‐based ligands for preferential activation reduction window provided hypoxic tissues. Furthermore, ligand functionalization pendant CF 3 group provides 19 F spectroscopic handle magnetic‐resonance studies redox processes at...

Ammonia is a common coolant, including in ice skating rinks, but hazardous material. ZnPt(CN)4 was shown to exhibit blue/green luminescence-based sensory response when exposed ammonia vapor, as the cover image. The reaction between and detectable down 50 ppm of ammonia, fully reversible. involves several species depending on exposure time concentration which were characterized using vibrational luminescence spectroscopy. One these species, Zn(NH3)2Zn(NH3)3(Pt(CN)4)2 has been structurally 1D...
