The heterobimetallic cobalt-copper complex bearing three benzimidazole ligands for copper, as cytochrome c oxidase active site model, was applied to the surface of glassy carbon electrode to show electrocatalytic activity for O 2 reduction in aqueous solution at an acidity level close to physiological pH value. The kinetic parameters of this electrocatalytic process were obtained.展开更多

The triplet state energy of the cryptand (H 3L F) was studied by phosphorescence spectrum. The fluorescent properties of Eu(Ⅲ) cryptates in MeOH solution show that the cryptand (H 3L F) can sensitize the Eu(Ⅲ) ion to luminescence and the introduction of the Zn(Ⅱ) ion into the mononuclear Eu(Ⅲ) cryptate resulted in blue shift of three ligand centered bands, increase of molar absorption coefficient and increase of the luminescence intensity of Eu(Ⅲ).展开更多
