Journal ArticleDOI

Heavy metal separation with polymer inclusion membranes

Carmelo Sgarlata, +5 more
- 15 Oct 2008 - 
TL;DR: Using functionalized calix[4]arene carrier 1 in a PIM system, Hg(II) is transported with high selectivity from acidic aqueous source phase solutions of Cd(II), Hg (II) and Pb(II).
Journal ArticleDOI

External and internal guest binding of a highly charged supramolecular host in water: deconvoluting the very different thermodynamics.

Carmelo Sgarlata, +6 more
- 27 Jan 2010 - 
TL;DR: In this article, NMR, UV−vis, and ITC measurements probe different aspects of competing host−guest equilibria as simple alkylammonium guest molecules interact with both the exterior (ion-association) and interior (encapsulation) of the [Ga4L6]12− supramolecular assembly in water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Water-soluble pentasulfonatocalix[5]arene: selective recognition of ditopic trimethylammonium cations by a triple non-covalent interaction

Giuseppe Arena, +4 more
- 13 Sep 2004 - 
TL;DR: Remarkably the flexible host 1 exhibits both more efficiency and selectivity in the complexation of ditopic methylammonium ions with respect to similar more preorganised calix[4]arene receptors.

External and Internal Guest Binding of a Highly Charged Supramolecular Host in Water: Deconvoluting the Very Different Thermodynamics

Carmelo Sgarlata
- 06 Jan 2011 - 
TL;DR: NMR, UV-vis, and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) measurements probe different aspects of competing host-guest equilibria as simple alkylammonium guest molecules interact with both the exterior and interior of the supramolecular assembly in water.
Journal ArticleDOI

New cyclodextrin-bearing 8-hydroxyquinoline ligands as multifunctional molecules

Valentina Oliveri, +9 more
- 04 Oct 2013 - 
TL;DR: Three new β-cyclodextrin conjugates of 8-hydroxyquinolines and their copper( II) and zinc(II) complexes have been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically, and show low cytotoxicity and potential as therapeutic agents in diseases related both to metal dyshomeostasis and oxidative stress.
