Summary: In this study, a series of hexanuclear chloride and sulfate Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes were successfully synthesized from appropriate metal salts and octadecaaza macrocyclic ligands. The obtained coordination compounds were characterized using various methods, including elemental analysis, spectroscopic methods, magnetic measurements, and X-ray crystallography. The X-ray crystal structures revealed different coordination modes of the metal cations in the obtained coordination compounds. The folding conformation of the macrocyclic ligand depended on the number of metal cations bound within the macrocycle. All Ni(II) and Cu(II) coordination compounds exhibited paramagnetic behavior. The magnetic measurements showed that the magnetic behavior of certain complexes was dominated by the magnetic anisotropy of the metal ion, while others revealed small antiferromagnetic interactions within the metal units. The EPR experiments indicated that the predominant contribution to the orbitals occupied by the unpaired electrons in the ground state originated from d(x2-y2) orbitals.

Summary: This article introduces three new small-molecule probes with good fluorescence quantum yield and aqueous solubility, which exhibit excellent two-photon absorption in the near-infrared region. Lyso-2arm and Mito-3arm show good targeting abilities for lysosomes and mitochondria, respectively. In two-photon microscopy experiments, Mito-3arm outperforms a commercial two-photon dye, delivering enhanced resolution, broader NIR light excitation window, and higher signal-to-noise ratio. Moreover, the two-photon bioimaging of 3D human forebrain organoids confirms the successful deep tissue imaging capabilities of both Lyso-2arm and Mito-3arm. Overall, this work presents a rational design strategy for developing competent two-photon-absorbing probes by varying the number of conjugated arms for bioimaging applications.

Summary: An ether-linked covalent triazine polymer, SMCOP-2, was synthesized and found to be a highly versatile material for addressing various environmental issues. SMCOP-2 exhibited good fluorescence emission in water, but its fluorescence declined in the presence of carcinogenic dichromate ions, making it a turn-off fluorescence sensor with a low limit of detection for detecting dichromate ions. SMCOP-2 also changed color from yellow to reddish brown in the presence of acid vapor, enabling it to be used as an effective colorimetric sensor for detecting acid vapors.

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.
