Journal ArticleDOI
The Use of a Vanadium Species As a Catalyst in Photoinduced Water Oxidation
Marie-Pierre Santoni,Giuseppina La Ganga,Viviana Mollica Nardo,Mirco Natali,Fausto Puntoriero,Franco Scandola,Sebastiano Campagna +6 more
TL;DR: The time-resolved formation of the oxidized molecular catalyst 1(+) in bimolecular reactions is evidenced for the first time by transient absorption spectroscopy and opens the way to the use of less expensive vanadium clusters as water oxidation catalysts in artificial photosynthesis schemes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A mononuclear Cu(II) complex with 5,6-diphenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazine: Synthesis, crystal structure, DNA- and BSA-binding, molecular modeling, and anticancer activity against MCF-7, A-549, and HT-29 cell lines
Marzieh Anjomshoa,Hassan Hadadzadeh,Masoud Torkzadeh-Mahani,Seyed Jamilaldin Fatemi,Mahboubeh Adeli-Sardou,Hadi Amiri Rudbari,Viviana Mollica Nardo +6 more
TL;DR: The in vitro cytotoxicity indicate that the copper(II) complex has excellent anticancer activity against the three human carcinoma cell lines, MCF-7, A-549, and HT-29, with IC50 values of 9.8, 7.80, and 4.50 μM.
Journal ArticleDOI
SERS and DFT study of indigo adsorbed on silver nanostructured surface
Viviana Mollica Nardo,Alessandro Sinopoli,Lara Kabalan,R. C. Ponterio,Franz Saija,Sebastiano Trusso +5 more
TL;DR: DFT calculations provide a good description of the observed SERS spectra, in particular, the indigo-Ag16 structure gives a better description with respect to structures where only one or two silver atoms attached to theIndigo molecule are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystallographic study and biological evaluation of 1,4-dimethyl-N-alkylcarbazoles.
Carmela Saturnino,Anna Caruso,Pasquale Longo,Anna Capasso,Attilio Pingitore,Maria Cristina Caroleo,Erika Cione,Mariarita Perri,Francesco Nicolò,Viviana Mollica Nardo,Luigi Monsù Scolaro,Maria Stefania Sinicropi,Maria Rosaria Plutino,Hussein El-Kashef +13 more
TL;DR: The data demonstrate that carbazoles derivatives exert inhibitory effects on ovarian cancer cell growth, highlighting a stronger and a dose-dependent anti proliferative activity displayed by 2c carbazole, designating this compound, as a better candidate in the treatment of human ovarian cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel dinuclear schiff base copper complex as an efficient and cost effective catalyst for oxidation of alcohol: Synthesis, crystal structure and theoretical studies
TL;DR: In this paper, an environmentally friendly protocol is described for an economic, practical laboratory-scale oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, using a bis-chloro-bridged binuclear Cu(II) complex [(HL)Cu(μ 2-Cl)2Cu(HL)]*1.5 CH3OH as catalyst.
