High Separation Capacity and Selectivity of C2 Hydrocarbons over Methane within a Microporous Metal–Organic Framework at Room Temperature

TL;DR: A microporous metal-organic framework (UTSA-34) of non-interpenetrated binodal (4,6)-connected ybh network with interconnected cages has been realised to exhibit highly selective separation of C(2) hydrocarbons from methane with a separation capacity of 3.0 mol kg(-1) and selectivity of 35 at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solvent-dependent 44 square grid and 64.82 NbO frameworks formed by Cu(Pyac)2(bis[3-(4-pyridyl)pentane-2,4-dionato]copper(II))

TL;DR: The title compound crystallizes from anhydrous solvents in a simple square-grid topology, but when water is present, crystals form with an unusual interpenetrated 3D NbO topology whose pores contain hydrogen-bonded solvent molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

A microporous lanthanide-tricarboxylate framework with the potential for purification of natural gas

TL;DR: A novel robust three-dimensional lanthanide organic framework with high thermal stability has been demonstrated to exhibit the potential for purification of natural gas in nearly pure form from an 8-component gas mixture at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seminaphthofluorones are a family of water-soluble, low molecular weight, NIR-emitting fluorophores.

TL;DR: Each of the new fluorophores described is a minimal template structure for evaluation of their basic spectral properties, which may be further functionalized and optimized yielding concomitant improvements in their photophysical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ruthenium(II)/(III) complexes of 4-hydroxy-pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid with PPh3/AsPh3 as co-ligand: impact of oxidation state and co-ligands on anticancer activity in vitro

TL;DR: Cytotoxicity studies using three cancer lines viz HeLa, HepG2, HEp-2 and a normal cell line NIH 3T3 showed that Ru(II) complexes exhibited substantial cytotoxic specificity towards cancer cells, and the Ru( II) complexes were found to be superior to Ru(III) complexes in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells.
