Two new isotypic d/f-heterometallic purely inorganic cationic materials, [AgM(TeO)]SO (M = Ce or Th), were synthesized using the metal oxides (MO and TeO), silver nitrate, and sulfuric acid under mild hydrothermal conditions. The prepared materials were characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction, which revealed that the materials possess a 3D framework of corner-sharing TeO units. The tellurite framework creates four unique pores, three of which are occupied by the M and Ag metal centers. The tellurite network, metal coordination, and total charge yield a cationic framework, which is charge-balanced by electrostatically bound sulfate anions residing in the largest of the four framework pores. These materials also possess Ag in a ligand-imposed linear geometry.

Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactions and their kinetic barriers Δ are important in organic and inorganic chemistry. This study examines factors that influence Δ, reporting the kinetics and thermodynamics of HAT from various ruthenium bis(acetylacetonate) pyridine-imidazole complexes to nitroxyl radicals. Across these 36 reactions, the Δ and Δ can be independently varied, with different sets of Ru complexes primarily tuning either their ps or their °s.

Minocycline is an antibiotic of the tetracycline family which is widely used to treat a range of medical conditions. Although it has been in use for more than 50 years, little information is available on its metabolism in the human body. In this study, we simulate the biotransformation of minocycline by means of electrochemistry coupled to mass spectrometry.

In 2001, Tang's team discovered a unique type of luminogens with substantial enhanced fluorescence upon aggregation and introduced the concept of "aggregation-induced emission (AIE)". Unlike conventional fluorescent materials, AIE luminogens (AIEgens) emit weak or no fluorescence in solution but become highly fluorescent in aggregated or solid states, due to a mechanism known as restriction of intramolecular motions (RIM). Initially considered a purely inorganic chemical phenomenon, AIE was later applied in biomedicine to improve the sensitivity of immunoassays.

Non-destructive chromatographic methods were used to determine the hold-up volumes of four self-packed columns containing embedded phosphate groups. The stationary phases are named Diol-P-C10, Diol-P-C18, Diol-P-Benzyl and Diol-P-Chol. The hydrophobicity of organic ligands bound to the phosphate group increases in the benzyl< decyl < octadecyl

Tattooing is a popular form of body art that has evolved from ancient times into being part of modern society. The understanding of biotransformation processes of coloring tattoo pigments in human skin is limited although skin reactions to tattoos with unknown culprits occur. Electrochemistry coupled to mass spectrometry (EC-MS) has widely been used as a tool for a purely instrumental approach to simulating the enzymatic biotransformation of xenobiotics.
