Journal ArticleDOI
Stereochemical control of Zn(II)/Cu(II) selectivity in piperidine tripod ligands.
TL;DR: Stereochemistry plays a major role in the selectivity toward zinc ion over copper(II) of some tripodal ligands with a central piperidine scaffold, one of which acts as a fluorescent zinc sensor with nanomolar sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and Cyclic Voltammetry Studies of Copper Complexes of Bromo- and Alkoxyphenyl-Substituted Derivatives of Tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine: Influence of Cation−Alkoxy Interactions on Copper Redox Potentials
TL;DR: A combination of host-guest chemistry and coordination chemistry in the design of electrochemical sensors for alkali metal and ammonium ions is described, indicating small but reproducible changes in the copper redox couple occurred upon presentation of a guest cation that would be expected to form a complex with the copper-ligand complex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Absolute configurational assignment of self-organizing asymmetric tripodal ligand-metal complexes.
TL;DR: The application of the exciton chirality method to the determination of the conformation of asymmetric metal-ligand complexes in solution closely resembles that predicted by computational simulations and those obtained by X-ray crystallographic studies of metal complexes with racemic and enantiomerically pure ligands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rigidified tripodal chiral ligands in the asymmetric recognition of amino compounds.
TL;DR: Protonated piperidine and quinuclidine analogues were able to differentiate the two enantiomers of certain amino alcohols by fluorescence spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acetaldehyde hydration by zinc–hydroxo complexes: coordination number expansion during catalysis
TL;DR: The complexes [Zn(tren)(OH)]+ and [Cd(Me6tren)+ are excellent catalysts for the hydration of acetaldehyde as mentioned in this paper.
