Coamplexation of mercury(II) compounds by crown ethers in organic media
1991
Complexes between crown ethers having ring sizes of 15–24 atoms and 5 to 8 oxygens with HgX2 species (X = Cl, I, CN, SCN) have been prepared and studied. Interactions of the substituents X bound to mercury with groups or fragments in the crown compound are essential in determining the characteristics and stability of the complexes formed. Complexes with crowns of 18C6 ring sizes are the most favourable except for HgX2 compounds for which the size of X is larger than the macrocycle ring, as is the case for X = CF3.
Transition metal ion induced hydrogelation by amino-terpyridine ligands
2014
Hydrogelation behavior of a new class of terpyridine based metallogelators are explored. The gelation and the gel morphology was found to be critically dependent on divalent metal ions, anions and on subtle structural changes on the gelator molecule.
