biostudies-literatureUnknown62(6)Audsley GTertiary Education Trust FundTwo propeller-shaped chiral Co^III₃Y^III complexes built from fluorinated ligands are synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD), IR, UV-vis, circular dichroism (CD), elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), electron spray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS), and NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁹F). This work explores the sensing and discrimination abilities of these complexes, thus providing an innovative sensing method using a ¹⁹F NMR chemosensory system and opening new directions in 3d/4f chemistry. Control experiments and theoretical studies shed light on the sensing mechanism, while the scope and limitations of this method are discussed and presented.Inorganic chemistry2680-2693https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9930122biostudies-literatureChiral Co₃Y Propeller-Shaped Chemosensory Platforms Based on ¹⁹F-NMR.PMC9930122Ulldemolins CPLai-Morrice JAl-Hilaly YAudsley GEssien NBAkien GRColes SJTizzard GJKostakis GECarpenter HSerpell LCfalseChiral Co₃Y Propeller-Shaped Chemosensory Platforms Based on ¹⁹F-NMR.Two propeller-shaped chiral Co^III₃Y^III complexes built from fluorinated ligands are synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD), IR, UV-vis, circular dichroism (CD), elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), electron spray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS), and NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁹F).
