Polymorphism control of an active pharmaceutical ingredient beneath calixarene-based Langmuir monolayers.
2014
This communication demonstrates the possibility to nucleate and grow different crystalline polymorphic forms of gabapentin (GBP) using, as nucleation templates, Langmuir monolayers of an amphiphilic calixarene at different packing densities.
Crystalline supramolecular organic frameworksviahydrogen-bonding between nucleobases
2021
We report a crystalline supramolecular framework assembled by H-bonding interactions between covalently fused monomers equipped with two guanine-cytosine nucleobase pairs.
A chirality-induced alpha phase and a novel molecular magnetic metal in the BEDT-TTF/tris(croconate)ferrate(iii) hybrid molecular system
2006
The novel paramagnetic and chiral anion [Fe(C5O5)3]32 has been combined with the organic donor BEDT-TTF (= ET = bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene) to yield the first chirality- induced α phase and a paramagnetic metal.

Single layers of a multifunctional laminar Cu(I,II) coordination polymer.
2010
A multifunctional bidimensional mixed-valence copper coordination polymer [Cu2Br(IN)2]n (IN = isonicotinato) has been characterized in crystal phase and isolated on graphite surface as single sheets.
Active surfaces engineered by immobilizing protein-polymer nanoreactors for selectively detecting sugar alcohols.
2016
We introduce active surfaces generated by immobilizing protein-polymer nanoreactors on a solid support for sensitive sugar alcohols detection. First, such selective nanoreactors were engineered in solution by simultaneous encapsulation of specific enzymes in copolymer polymersomes, and insertion of membrane proteins for selective conduct of sugar alcohols. Despite the artificial surroundings, and the thickness of the copolymer membrane, functionality of reconstituted Escherichia coli glycerol facilitator (GlpF) was preserved, and allowed selective diffusion of sugar alcohols to the inner cavity of the polymersome, where encapsulated ribitol dehydrogenase (RDH) enzymes served as biosensing e…
Formation and mixed-valent behaviour of a substituted tetraferrocenylstannane.
2010
A tetrasubstituted tetraferrocenylstannane is formed from 1-bromoferrocene-1′-carboxylic acid methyl ester and copper bronze. The molecular structure is almost perfectly tetrahedral with Fe⋯Fe distances of around 6 A. In solution two sequential one-electron processes and one two-electron process are indicative of mixed-valent intermediates. Intermetallic interactions have been probed by preparative oxidation, paramagnetic NMR spectroscopy, Mosbauer spectroscopy, UV/Vis/NIR spectroscopy and DFT calculations.
Photoinduced intersystem crossing in DNA oxidative lesions and epigenetic intermediates
2020
[EN] The propensity of 5-formyluracil and 5-formylcytosine, i.e. oxidative lesions and epigenetic intermediates, in acting as intrinsic DNA photosensitizers is unraveled by using a combination of molecular modeling, simulation and spectroscopy. Exploration of potential energy surfaces and non-adiabatic dynamics confirm a higher intersystem crossing rate for 5-formyluracil, whereas the kinetic models evidence different equilibria in the excited states for both compounds.
Magneto-optical nanomaterials: a SPIO–phthalocyanine scaffold built step-by-step towards bimodal imaging
2013
A SPIO-phthalocyanine nanohybrid is developed as a bimodal contrast agent for Optical and Magnetic Resonance Imaging. The organic coating was covalently attached onto SPIO in a step-by-step approach. Each coated-SPIO was thoroughly characterized. The hydrodynamic size of the SPIO-Pc is ca. 60 nm with a coverage of ca. 690 Pc/SPIO.
Reactive blending of a functionalized polyethylene with a semiflexible liquid crystalline copolyester
1996
Reactive blends (50/50 w/w) of a low molar mass polyethylene containing free carboxylic groups (PEox) and a semiflexible liquid crystalline polyester (SBH 1 : 1 : 2, by Eniricerche) have been prepared at 240 degrees C in a Brabender mixer, in the presence of Ti(OBu)(4) catalyst, for different mixing times (15, 60, and 120 min). In order to prove the formation of a PE-g-SBH copolymer, the blends have been fractionated by successive extractions with boiling toluene and xylene. The soluble fractions and the residues have been analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetry (TG and DTG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)…
<i>In vitro</i> evaluation of microleakage in Class II composite restorations: High-viscosity bulk-fill <i>vs</i> conventiona…
2019
This study compared marginal microleakage of Class II cavities restored with bulk-fill resin (Filtek™ Bulk Fill) and conventional composite resin (Filtek™ Supreme XTE). Two standardized Class II cavities were prepared in forty extracted human molars. The gingival margin was located above the cemento-enamel junction for twenty molars (groups 1 and 2) and apically for the other twenty (groups 3 and 4) (n=20). The occlusomesial cavity was filled with bulk-fill resin by insertion in bulk (groups 1 and 3) and the occlusodistal cavity was restored with conventional composite using incremental technique (groups 2 and 4). The teeth were thermocycled (500 cycles 5-55°C), stained and observed under l…
