In the title compound, [ZnBr(2)(C(15)H(11)N(3))], the Zn(II) ion is five-coordinated by the three N atoms from a 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine ligand (terpy) and two bromide anions in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal configuration. Each mol-ecule is situated on a twofold rotational axis that passes through the Zn(II) ion and the central ring of the terpy ligand. In the crystal structure, aromatic π-π inter-actions between terpy ligands [centroid-centroid distances = 3.6265 (9) Å] link mol-ecules into stacks propagated in the [001] direction.

Although significant progress has been made in the effective measurement of Zn(II), Аlizarin red S (ARS) was immobilized on polyethylene polyamine-modified polyacrylonitrile (PPF-1) via a new matrix. This approach allows the detection of low levels of Zn(II) ions in various water samples via preconcentrated atomic absorption spectrometry. The use of PPF-1 in a polymer matrix for zinc preconcentration presents several advantages over traditional sorbtion-spectroscopic methods, including reduced cost, high zinc recovery, increased sensitivity, and selectivity.

Sulfur nanoparticles (SNPs) and their composites are promising for heavy metal adsorption, yet current SNPs often lack surface S, leading to low affinity toward heavy metal and ease of aggregation. Here, we report a simple light-driven method for facile prepare SNPs with surfaces enriched with S and in-situ load them onto graphene oxide (GO) to fabricate GO-S composites. Under illumination, the O generated by photosensitizer phloxine B was able to oxidize S into elemental SNPs.

Background: Mammalian metallothioneins (MTs) play a crucial role in maintaining Zn(II) and Cu(I) homeostasis, as well as regulating the cellular redox potential. They are involved in cancer resistance to cisplatin-related drugs and the sequestration of toxic metal ions. To investigate their participation in specific physiological and pathological processes, it is imperative to develop an analytical method for measuring changes in protein concentration both in vitro and in vivo.

Since the 1980s, pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) has been used as an optical pressure sensor for measuring surface pressure on aircraft models in wind tunnels. Typically, PSPs have utilized platinum(II)-5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorophenyl)-porphyrin due to its high pressure sensitivity, phosphorescence lifetime of ∼50 μs, reasonable quantum yield of emission, and resistance to photo-oxidation. This work investigates the photophysics and electronic structure of metal complexes of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorophenyl)-porphyrin, namely, Zn(II), Pd(II), and Ir(III), as potentially improved luminophores for polymer-based PSPs.

Electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and solvation effects can alter the free energies of ionizable functional groups in proteins and other nanoporous architectures, allowing such structures to tune acid-base chemistry to support specific functions. Herein, we expand on this theme to examine how metal sites ( = H, Zn, Co, Co) affect the p of benzoic acid guests bound in discrete porphyrin nanoprisms () in CDCN. These host-guest systems were chosen to model how porous metalloporphyrin electrocatalysts might influence H transfer processes that are needed to support important electrochemical reactions (e.
