Reactions of 5-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)-isophthalate and metal salts provide laminar metal organic frameworks (MOFs) wherein interlayer interactions of the pendant carbazoles engender extended aromatic stacks or non-stacked structures with enhanced solid-state emission. These studies emphasize that MOFs s

The first step involved in the degradation of phthalate isomers (phthalate, isophthalate and terephthalate) is the double hydroxylation by respective aromatic-ring hydroxylating dioxygenases. These are two component enzymes consisting of 'oxygenase' and 'reductase' components. Soil isolate Pseudomon

A metal-organic framework (NPC-6) with a NbO topology based on a piperazine-ring bridged di-isophthalate ligand was synthesized and characterized. The incorporated piperazine group enables an enhanced adsorption affinity for CO2 in NPC-6, in which the CO2 uptakes is highly up to 4.83 mmol·g-1 at 29

… We established a quantitative fluorescence assay using the Na+ indicator sodium-binding benzofuran isophthalate (SBFI) for evaluation of various compounds on epileptiform activities induced by 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) in cultured rat hippocampal neurons. …
… Ratiometric Na^+ imaging with a Na^+-sensitive fluorescent dye SBFI (sodium-binding benzofuran isophthalate) revealed that the intracellular Na^+ concentration ([Na^+]_i) was not affected by the application of high K^+ (60mM) solution to either control or differentiated cells. …
