The most relevant results published from 2006 up to 2010 are reported; they especially
regard the synthetic pathway and the structural and physico-chemical aspects of planar or …

Although aluminum‐and iron‐based chemicals have been broadly used as the two most
common types of coagulants for wastewater treatment, their impacts on the performance of …

As a necessary trace element, iron is involved in many physiological processes. Clinical and
basic studies have found that disturbances in iron metabolism, especially iron overload …

Schiff bases derived from 5-nitro-salicylaldehyde and 4-aminobutyric acid, 5-
aminopentanoic acid and 6-aminohexanoic acid were synthesized both as monosodium …

By the reactions of MnIII Schiff-base complexes with the tricyanometalate building block,[(Tp)
Cr (CN) 3]−(Tp= Tris (pyrazolyl) hydroborate), two couples of enantiomerically pure chiral …

Spin triangles, that is, triangular complexes of half‐integer spins, are the oldest molecular
nanomagnets (MNMs). Their magnetic properties have been studied long before molecular …

Photolabile metal‐containing cages are metal complexes that undergo a change in
coordination environment upon exposure to light of an appropriate wavelength. The light …

This review focuses on the coordination chemistry of α-hydroxycarboxylates with first-row
transition cations. It takes in both mono-and polycarboxylates, surveying their bonding …

Metal ion signaling in biology has been studied extensively with ortho‐nitrobenzyl
photocages; however, the low quantum yields and other optical properties are not ideal for …

A growing number of siderophores are found to contain β-hydroxyaspartic acid (β-OH-Asp)
as a functional group for Fe (III) coordination, along with the more common catechol and …
