When the concentration of PC is below CMC (critical micell concentration), most of Tb3+ is associated with PC, the binding constant is about 3.35×103 L/mol. When the concentration of PC is beyond CMC, most of Tb3+ is dimerized, the dimerization constant is about 3.92×104L/mol. In PC?CH?H2O system, the binding constant of Tb3+?CH complex 2.93×104L/mol is obtained.展开更多

Based on the building block of 2-phenyl-4,6-di(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine (L = C20H14N4), a Cu(I) polymer [(CuC20H14N4)(CuCl2)]∞ and a salt with H2SO4 [(C20H16N4)(HSO4)2] have been synthesized by hydrother...Based on the building block of 2-phenyl-4,6-di(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine (L = C20H14N4), a Cu(I) polymer [(CuC20H14N4)(CuCl2)]∞ and a salt with H2SO4 [(C20H16N4)(HSO4)2] have been synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. In the Cu(Ⅰ) polymer, although the central metal ions of Cu(Ⅰ) directly coordinate with the building block L, they still do not assembly expected grid-type complexes and there exists a one-dimensional chain constructed through coordinate bonds. In the salt, hydrogen bonds along with two kinds of π…π supramoleuclar interactions fabricate two-dimensional (2D) networks which further generate a 3D supramolecular architecture via interlayer π…π interactions. Fluorescent spectra show that the L emits blue fluorescence and its Cu(Ⅰ) polymer and salt decrease the fluorescent intensity.展开更多

Linear and nonlinear optical properties of terpyridine derivative L were systematically investigated. The maximum two-photon cross-section of L was 382.5 GM (Goeppert-Mayer), measured by two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) method. This result demonstrates that the increase of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) leads to enhanced two-photon absorption (2PA), which could be achieved by introducing additional electron-donor groups to the molecular framework.展开更多

In...Quinones are common organic compounds frequently used as model dissolved organic matters in water, and their redox properties are usually characterized by either electrochemical or spectroscopic methods separately. In this work, electrochemical methodology was combined with two fluorescence spectroelectrochemical techniques, cyclic voltafluorescence spectrometry (CVF) and derivative cyclic voltafluorescence spectrometry (DCVF), to determine the electrochemical properties of p-benzoQuinone in dimethvl sulfoxide, an aprotic solution. The CVF results show that the electrochemical reduction ofp-benzoquinone resulted in the formation of radical anion and dianion, which exhibited a lower fluorescence intensity and red-shift of the emission spectra compared to that of p-benzoauinone. The fluorescence intensity was found to vary along with the electrochemical oxidation and reduction ofp-benzoquinone. The CVF and DCVF results were in good consistence. Thus, the combined method offers a powerful tool to investigate the electrochemical process of p-benzoquinone and other natural organic compounds.展开更多

Cationic PFP, single-stranded nucleic acid and PDI were used as signal reporter, probe and fluorescence quencher, respectively. In the presence of nucleic acids, they form complexes with PFP and PDI through strong electrostatic attraction interactions, resulting in PDI aggregating on nucleic acids and fluorescence of PFP being quenched. When nucleic acids are hydrolyzed by enzymes or their conformation is changed via recognizing targets, the effective aggregation of PDI is disrupted and the quenching ability is decreased. Thus the fluorescence of PFP recovers significantly. By taking advantage of the mechanism, we construct a new biosensor for endonuclease and small molecules detection. Here, S1 nuclease and bisphenol A are used as model systems. The detection limit of the SI nuclease and BPA are1.0×10^-6U/mL and 0.05 ng/mL, respectively. Our method is sensitive, cost-effective and simple, and provides a new platform for bioanalysis.展开更多
