    Abstract The design of highly efficient sensitizers is one of the most significant areas in dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) research. We studied a series of benzothiadiazole-based D-π-π-A organic dyes, putting emphasis on the influence of the donor moiety on the DSSC's efficiency. Using (linear-response time-dependent) density functional theory ((TD)DFT)) with the CAM-B3LYP functional, different donor groups were characterized in terms of electronic absorption spectra and key photovoltaic parameters. As a reference, a dye was considered that had a benzothiadiazole fragment linked via thiophene rings to a diphenylamine donor and a cyanoacrylic-acid acceptor. The different systems were first studied in terms of individual performance parameters, which eventually aggregated into power conversion efficiency. Only the amino-substituted species showed a modest increase, whereas the dimethylamino case showed a decrease.

    Abstract The modulation of molecular characteristics in metal-free organic dyes holds significant importance in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The D-π-A molecular design, based on the furan moiety (π) in the conjugated spacer between the arylamine (D) and the 2-cyanoacrylic acid (A), was developed and theoretically evaluated for its potential application in DSSCs. Utilizing linear response time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) with the CAM-B3LYP functional, different donor and acceptor groups were characterized in terms of the electronic absorption properties of these dyes. All the studied dye sensitizers demonstrate the ability to inject electrons into the semiconductor's conduction band (TiO

    Abstract Novel glauconite nanorods (GNRs) were synthesized by the sonication-induced chemical expansion and scrolling process of natural glauconite. The synthetic nanostructure was characterized by different analytical techniques as a superior adsorbent for the malachite green dye (MG). The synthetic GNRs were detected as porous nanorods with an average length of 150 nm to 5 μm, an average diameter of 25 to 200 nm, and a specific surface area of 123.7 m

    Abstract An advanced form of magnesium-doped hydroxyapatite (Mg HAP) was synthesized and hybridized with cellulose fibers, producing a safe biocomposite (CF/Mg HAP) as an enhanced delivery structure of traditional oxaliplatin (OXPN) chemotherapy drug during the treatment stages of colorectal cancer. The qualifications of CF/Mg HAP as a carrier for OXPN were followed based on loading, release, and cytotoxicity as compared to Mg HAP. The CF/Mg HAP composite exhibits a notably higher OXPN encapsulation capacity (256.2 mg g

    Abstract Abstract Background In this paper, the kinetics of oxidation of [Cr III (HIDA)(Val)(H 2 O) 2 ] + and [Cr III (HIDA)(Arg)(H 2 O) 2 ] + (HIDA = iminodiacetic acid, Val = DL-valine and Arg = L-arginine) were studied. The choice of ternary complexes was attributed to two considerations. Firstly, in order to study the effect of the secondary ligands DL-valine and L-arginine on the stability of binary complex [Cr III (HIDA)(IDA)(H 2 O)] towards oxidation. Secondly, transition metal ternary complexes have received particular focus and have been employed in mapping protein surfaces as probes for biological redox centers and in protein capture for both purification and study. Results The results have shown that the reaction is first order with respect to both [IO 4 - ] and the complex concentration, and the rate increases over the pH range 2.62 – 3.68 in both cases. The experimental rate law is consistent with a mechanism in which both the deprotonated forms of the complexes [Cr III (IDA)(Val)(H 2 O) 2 ] and [Cr III (IDA)(Arg)(H 2 O) 2 ] are significantly more reactive than the conjugate acids. The value of the intramolecular electron transfer rate constant for the oxidation of [Cr III (HIDA)(Arg)(H 2 O) 2 ] + , k 3 (1.82 × 10 -3 s -1 ), is greater than the value of k 1 (1.22 × 10 -3 s -1 ) for the oxidation of [Cr III (HIDA)(Val)(H 2 O) 2 ] + at 45.0°C and I = 0.20 mol dm -3 . It is proposed that electron transfer proceeds through an inner-sphere mechanism via coordination of IO 4 - to chromium(III). Conclusion The oxidation of [Cr III (HIDA)(Val)(H 2 O) 2 ] + and [Cr III (HIDA)(Arg)(H 2 O) 2 ] + by periodate may proceed through an inner-sphere mechanism via two electron transfer giving chromium(VI). The value of the intramolecular electron transfer rate constant for the oxidation of [Cr III (HIDA)(Arg)(H 2 O) 2 ] + , k 3 , is greater than the value of k 1 for the oxidation of [Cr III (HIDA)(Val)(H 2 O) 2 ] + .

The choice of ternary complexes was attributed to two considerations.

    Results: The results have shown that the reaction is first order with respect to both [IO4(-)] and the complex concentration, and the rate increases over the pH range 2.62 - 3.68 in both cases. The experimental rate law is consistent with a mechanism in which both the deprotonated forms of the complexes [CrIII(IDA)(Val)(H2O)2] and [CrIII(IDA)(Arg)(H2O)2] are significantly more reactive than the conjugate acids. The value of the intramolecular electron transfer rate constant for the oxidation of [CrIII(HIDA)(Arg)(H2O)2]+, k3 (1.82 x 10(-3) s(-1)), is greater than the value of k1 (1.22 x 10(-3) s(-1)) for the oxidation of [CrIII(HIDA)(Val)(H2O)2]+ at 45.0 degrees C and I = 0.20 mol dm(-3). It is proposed that electron transfer proceeds through an inner-sphere mechanism via coordination of IO4(-) to chromium(III).
    Conclusion: The oxidation of [CrIII(HIDA)(Val)(H2O)2]+ and [CrIII(HIDA)(Arg)(H2O)2]+ by periodate may proceed through an inner-sphere mechanism via two electron transfer giving chromium(VI). The value of the intramolecular electron transfer rate constant for the oxidation of [CrIII(HIDA)(Arg)(H2O)2]+, k3, is greater than the value of k1 for the oxidation of [CrIII(HIDA)(Val)(H2O)2]+. A common mechanism for the oxidation of ternary iminodiacetatochromium(III) complexes by periodate is proposed, and this is supported by an excellent isokinetic relationship between DeltaH* and DeltaS* values for these reactions.
