We have presented a self-cross-link strategy to fabricate HSA nanoparticles using a desolvation method. The nanoparticles were stabilized by intermolecular disulfide bonds while still dissolvable in reducing media. The f...
A reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-ZnIn2S4 nanosheet composite was successfully synthesized via an in situ controlled growth process. The as-obtained RGO-ZnIn2S4 composite showed excellent visible light H-2 production activi...
A soluble precursor of hexacene is prepared from a cycloaddition of hexacene and diethyl ketomalonate in high yield. It can be used to make hexacene thin-films through spin-coating for the fabrication of organic field ef...
A series of 3D homochiral manganese-lanthanide frameworks have been synthesized based on chiral camphoric acid. In the heterometallic features, D-camphoric acids are unprecedentedly embedded in three coordination modes.
Based on the K-doped graphene-CdS:Eu NC composites and the nicking endonuclease (NEase) assisted strand-scission cycle, we have developed an ultrasensitive and selective electrochemiluminescence (ECL) DNA biosensor using...
The two new 3d/4f polyphosphide complexes [(Cp*Fe)(2)P-10{Sm-(eta(5)-C5Me4R)(2)}(2)] (Cp* = eta 5-C5Me5; R = Me, nPr) were prepared by reductive dimerization of [Cp*Fe(eta(5)-P-5)] with samarocenes. They are the first P-...
Catalytic signal amplification was used for the colorimetric detection of CN- in aqueous media by using the enzyme catalase in tandem with mesoporous silica nanoparticle based synthetic HRP enzyme mimic Fe-MSNs. Signal a...
Maleimide-functionalised Pt(IV) complexes with highly selective binding properties to thiol groups were synthesised as precursors for binding of thiol-containing tumour-targeting molecules like human serum albumin.
The preparation of anthracene-based low band gap conjugated polymers comprising 2,6-linked anthracene and dithienyl-benzo[c]-[1,2,5]thiadiazole or dibithiophenyl-benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole alternate repeat units is prese...
The novel reactions of cluster salts [(mu-RS)Fe-2(CO)(6)(mu(4)-CS2)Fe-2(CO)(6)][Et3NH] with Ph2PCl, via the insertion of the PPh2 group into an activated C-S bond, afford the unprecedented tetrairon complexes with the un...
