Photocatalytic CO(2) reduction has been studied for two dyads with porphyrin covalently attached to rhenium tricarbonyl bipyridine moieties, and on separate components consisting of [Re(CO)(3)(Picoline)Bpy](+) and either zinc porphyrin or zinc chlorin. TONs decrease in the order: zinc porphyrin + Re > long spacer dyad > zinc chlorin + Re > short spacer dyad.

Article Synopsis
  • Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a harmful mycotoxin found in food that poses health risks, making its detection in cereal-based foods crucial.
  • A novel sensor was developed using zinc-tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (Zn-TCPP) nanorods and BiS@Au nanoflowers, which enhanced luminescence signals and allowed for the ultra-sensitive detection of OTA in various food samples.
  • This innovative approach not only effectively detects OTA at very low concentrations (as low as 0.13 pg/mL) but also offers a promising research avenue for analyzing other mycotoxins and advancing the study of metal-organic frameworks.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on creating enhanced host-guest complexes using a gold nanocluster and a zinc porphyrin nanoring, which is important in supramolecular chemistry.
  • Strong binding was observed between the gold nanocluster and the six-unit zinc porphyrin nanoring, confirmed through various analytical techniques including UV/Vis absorption and mass spectrometry.
  • The resulting complex not only stabilizes the gold nanocluster but also shows improved activity and selectivity in photochemical reactions, specifically converting carbon monoxide and generating singlet oxygen.

[2]Rotaxanes offer unique opportunities for studying and modulating charge separation and energy transfer, because the mechanical bond allows the robust, yet spatially dynamic tethering of photoactive groups. In this work, we synthesized [2]rotaxane triads comprising a central (aza)[10]CPP⊃C bis-adduct complex and two zinc porphyrin stoppers to address how the movable nanohoop affects light-induced charge separation and energy transfer between the rotaxane subcomponents. We found that neither the parent nanohoop [10]CPP nor its electron-deficient analogue aza[10]CPP actively participate in charge separation.

Vascular endothelial injury is closely related to the progression of various cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. Whether Human Urinary Kallidinogenase (HUK) has a protective effect on endothelial injury remains unclear. This study established an in vivo model of rat common carotid artery intima injury and an in vitro model of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVECs) injury induced by hydrogen peroxide (HO).

Temperature-Dependent Left- and Right-Twisted Conformational Changes in 1 : 1 Host-Guest Systems: Theoretical Modeling and Chiroptical Simulations.

An efficient strategy for high-performance chiral materials is to design and synthesize host molecules with left- and right- (M- and P-)twisted conformations and to control their twisted conformations. For this, a quantitative analysis is required to describe the chiroptical inversion, chiral transfer, and chiral recognition in the host-guest systems, which is generally performed using circular dichroism (CD) and/or proton nuclear magnetic resonance (H NMR) spectroscopies. However, the mass-balance model that considers the M- and P-twisted conformations has not yet been established.
