This review is focused on the use of solid Lewis acids to promote catalytic oxidations. While
the concept of using Lewis acids to promote the reaction of organic substrates with oxidizing …

Salen is a common abbreviation for tetradentate N 2 O 2 bis-Schiff base bis-phenolate
ligands. Due to the ease of their synthesis, rich coordination chemistry and photophysical …

Covalent or non-covalent interactions with DNA are the basis for many potential biomedical
applications of copper complexes, ranging from DNA structural probes and footprinting …

Regulation of the transcription machinery is one of the many ways to achieve control of gene
expression. This has been done either at the transcription initiation stage or at the …

Cancer has always been a dreadful disease and continues to attract extensive research
investigations. Various targets have been identified to restrain cancer. Among these DNA …

A probe, 9-(anthrylmethyl) trimethylammonium chloride, 1, was prepared. 1 binds to calf-
thymus DNA or Escherichia coli genomic DNA with high affinity, as evidenced from the …

Traditional optical probes primarily work on the concept of one‐to‐one recognition strategy.
Therefore, simultaneous detection of multiple anions is difficult using this kind of sensory …

We present the selective sensing of multiple transition metal ions in water using a synthetic
single probe. The probe is made up of pyrene and pyridine as signaling and interacting …

Complex formation of DNA with a number of cationic amphiphiles has been examined using
fluorescence, gel electrophoresis, and chemical nuclease digestion. Here we have …

Metal based salen complexes have been considered as an important scaffold toward
targeting of DNA structures. In the present work, we have synthesized nickel (II) and …
