The resultant uranyl-based MOC (UOC) efficiently encapsulates Sr 2+ within its cryptand-like cavity through metal-ligand coordination, thereby facilitating the selective removal of trace-level Sr 2+.
It completes a few steps and then goes to the SCF step max. With the Sr-cryptand complex I did a bunch of testing (raising electronic temp., lowering to GFN 1, lowering oxidation state magnitude, ...
Wenjuan Zhang from Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology (BIFT) developed and designed olefin polymers with [2.2.2]cryptand of complicated metal cations as functional cationic groups for AAEM ...
Zintl phase KP consists of potassium ions and infinite spiralling phosphide chains, but a chelating cryptand molecule helps create cyclotetraphosphide dianions that can then form the iron complex.
A cage-like cryptand molecule selectively captures chloride ions and binds them with record-setting strength. The molecular cage’s chloride-sequestering power comes entirely from C–H bonds ...
Contrary to this conventional wisdom, we designed a chloride-selective receptor in the form of a cryptand-like cage using only CH hydrogen bonding. Crystallography showed chloride stabilized by six ...
Levin. Working with O’Neil’s team, they determined they could use radiolabeled potassium fluoride and a cryptand to swap the 18 F into their trifluoromethylated products. At the moment ...
The highly reactive germanium dication trapped naked inside a cryptand Chemists have isolated the elusive and highly reactive germanium dication by trapping it in a molecular cage. Kim Baines and her ...
