AI Article Synopsis
- A binuclear Cu2+ complex of a pyridinophane polyamine ligand is identified as one of the fastest superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetics available.
- This complex shows significantly improved SOD activity when attached to the surface of boehmite nanoparticles (BNPs), which are made of γ-AlO(OH).
- The research highlights the potential of combining metal complexes with nanoparticles to enhance enzyme-like activities.
Article Abstract
The binuclear Cu2+ complex of a pyridinophane polyamine ligand ranking amongst the fastest SOD mimetics so far reported displays a remarkable SOD activity enhancement when grafted to the surface of boehmite (γ-AlO(OH)) nanoparticles (BNPs).
