Fluorescent MnO@DEHP Nanoprobe for Rapid and Selective Detection of Fe(III) ions.

Particle extraction via the liquid-liquid interface (PELLI) method has been utilized to produce Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (DEHP) coated MnO fluorescent nanoprobe denoted as MnO@DEHP for the selective detection of Fe ions. The synthesized MnO@DEHP nanoprobe was characterized by various instrumental techniques such as FT-IR, PXRD, TEM, EDAX, HRTEM, DLS, and XPS. Since the high concentration of Fe in waste water leads to water pollution, which in turn affects the ecosystem, and causes severe health hazards.

Novel Schiff base scaffolds derived from 4-aminoantipyrine and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-(phenyldiazenyl)benzaldehyde: Synthesis, antibacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.

The synthesis of four new azo-Schiff base ligands from 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-(phenyldiazenyl)benzaldehyde and 4-aminoantipyrine is described in this study. The molecular structures of all the scaffolds were confirmed using NMR spectroscopies such as H and C, as well as FT-IR and Mass spectroscopy. After successful synthesis and characterization of all the ligands, their in vitro antibacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities were carried out by using standard protocols.
