Single‐Molecule Mechanoresistivity by Intermetallic Bonding
A novel method to impart mechanoresistive behaviour to molecular junctions is described in this contribution, relying on metal‐ion interactions between Au electrodes and the Pt(II) centre of cyclometalated molecular wires. Junctions can be cycled between the low‐conductance and high‐conductance state by mechanical compression and relaxation, with ...

Role of the Metal Center in the Modulation of the Aggregation Process of Amyloid Model Systems by Square Planar Complexes Bearing 2-(2'-pyridyl)benzimidazole Ligands [PDF]
The effect of analogue Pd(II)-, Pt(II)-, and Au(III) compounds featuring 2-(2'-pyridyl)benzimidazole on the aggregation propensity of amyloid-like peptides derived from Aβ and from the C-terminal domain of nucleophosmin 1 was investigated.

Deep-red electrophosphorescence from a platinum(II)–porphyrin complex copolymerised with polyfluorene for efficient energy transfer and triplet harvesting [PDF]
A series of polyfluorene-based polymers with a range of weight percentages (w/w) of a platinum(II)-containing porphyrin, 5,15-dimesityl-10,20-diphenylporphyrinato platinum(II) (MPP(Pt)), were synthesised and incorporated into organic light-emitting ...

Addition of platinum derivatives to neoadjuvant single-agent fluoropyrimidine chemoradiotherapy in patients with stage II/III rectal cancer: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis (PROSPERO CRD42017073064) [PDF]
Background Neoadjuvant (chemo-)radiation has proven to improve local control compared to surgery alone, but this improvement did not translate into better overall or disease-specific survival.

Breaking the tetrapyrrolic π‐skeleton and implementing N‐confusion modification offer a distinctive ligand platform for metalla‐carbaporphyrinoid species. Through d‐π orbital interaction, the resultant open‐ring Pd/Pt complexes demonstrate near‐infrared‐II absorption capability and high photothermal conversion efficiency. Abstract We present herein the

Control over the Self-Assembly Modes of PtII Complexes by Alkyl Chain Variation: From Slipped to Parallel π-Stacks [PDF]
We report the self-assembly of a new family of hydrophobic, bis(pyridyl) PtII complexes featuring an extended oligophenyleneethynylene-derived π-surface appended with six long (dodecyloxy (2)) or short (methoxy (3)) side groups.

A 2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-phenolato platinum(II) complex as potential photosensitizer for combating bacterial infections in lung cancer chemotherapy† [PDF]
Cancer and antibiotic resistance are two global health threats that usually hamper clinical chemotherapeutic efficacy. Particularly for lung cancer, bacterial infections frequently arise thereby complicating the course of cancer treatment. In this sense,
