Summary: Metal ions play a significant role in the environment and human physiology, but heavy metal ions can be toxic even in trace amounts. Therefore, the development of simple Schiff base probes for multi-analyte detection is favorable. In this study, a colorimetric sensor based on thiophenol amine was synthesized and found to be highly selective for the detection of Cu2+ and Hg2+ ions, with excellent color change in mixed aqueous medium.

Summary: A Schiff base probe, 4-hydroxy-N-(pyrene-1-yl-methylene) benzo hydrazide (PyrBH), was synthesized and designed as a rapid and highly selective colorimetric sensor for Cu2+ ions in a semi-aqueous medium. The structural characterization of PyrBH was confirmed using NMR, FT-IR, and HRMS techniques. The UV-Visible spectral method was utilized to confirm the cation binding affinity and the probe showed a colorimetric response from colourless to yellow in the presence of Cu2+ ions. The calculated binding constant Ka value (3.464 x 10-5 M) indicated stable complex formation.

Summary: This work presents studies on the photochemical transformations of TU and Cys with the addition of Cu(II) or Fe(III) ions. The results show that the oxidation rate of the thiols increases significantly when Cu(II) or Fe(III) ions are added to the system. It has also been found that TU and Cys can form stable complex compounds with the studied metal ions. The oxidation rates of the thiols are found to depend on the radiation intensity and emission spectrum of the irradiation sources.

Summary: The structure and electrochemical properties of zinc(II) complexes with a face-capping ligand have been investigated, revealing the effect of the ligand on bound semiquinonate (SQ) radicals. The substitution pattern of the SQ ring plays a crucial role in determining the fate of the bound SQ radicals. Additionally, the protective pocket formed by the ligand's phenyl substituents is unable to prevent decomposition of SQ radicals with minimal steric bulk, suggesting that substitution of the SQ ring is the main contributor to their stabilization.

Summary: In this article, the synthesis and characterization of copper, nickel, and palladium complexes bound by bidentate ligands derived from ortho-phenylenediamine are described. The complexes contain tunable H-bond donors and their crystal structures reveal intramolecular H-bonding interactions between the ligand scaffolds. Variations in the coordination sphere led to the isolation of the complexes in square-planar or twisted pseudo-tetrahedral geometries. Structural analysis showed that intramolecular H-bonding interactions can be altered by disrupting the bonds between countercations, solvent of crystallization, and ligand scaffold, resulting in changes in the geometry of the complexes. DFT calculations confirmed that Cu complexes prefer twisted geometries while Ni and Pd complexes favor square-planar geometries.
