Ultrafast IR spectroscopy of polymeric cytosine nucleic acids reveal the long-lived species is due to a localised state
(2012)The decay pathways of UV-excited cytosine polymers are investigated using picosecond time-resolved infrared spectroscopy. Similar yields of a non-emissive 1niU* state are found in the single-stranded dC30 polymer as in the ... -
Influence of polystyrenesulfonate on electron transfer quenching of ruthenium trisbipyridine luminescence by viologens: Non-covalent assembly and covalent tethering of the ruthenium complex
(2012)A new copolymer (RuB-PSS) of ruthenium(ii)bis-(2,2?-bipyridine)(4- vinyl 2,2?-bipyridine) and styrene sulfonate was prepared which tethers the ruthenium chromophore directly to the polymer backbone. The photophysical ... -
Triplet-state dynamics of a metalloporphyrin photosensitiser (PtTMPyP4) in the presence of halides and purine mononucleotides.
(2011)The photophysical properties of Pt(ii) meso-tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl) porphyrin (PtTMPyP4) have been investigated in the presence of purine mononucleotides using emission and transient UV/visible/near-IR spectroscopy. ... -
Excited state dependent electron transfer of a rhenium-dipyridophenazine complex intercalated between the base pairs of DNA: a time-resolved UV-visible and IR absorption investigation into the photophysics of fac-[Re(CO)3(F2dppz)(py)]+ bound to either [poly(dA-dT)]2 or [poly(dG-dC)]2.
(2011)The transient species formed following excitation of fac-[Re(CO)3(F2dppz)(py)]+ (F2dppz = 11,12-difluorodipyrido[3,2-a:2?,3?-c]phenazine) bound to double-stranded polynucleotides [poly(dA-dT)]2 or [poly(dG-dC)]2 have ... -
Substituted Dipyridophenazine Complexes of Cr(III): Synthesis, Enantiomeric Resolution and Binding Interactions with Calf Thymus DNA
(2010)[Cr(phen)2(X2dppz)]3+ {X = H, Me, or F} have been synthesised, characterised, and chromatographically resolved into their constituent D and K enantiomers. The DNA-binding interactions of each of the racemic complexes ... -
Microwave-assisted synthesis of ZnO micro-javelins
(2009)The microwave (MW)-assisted formation of ZnO micro-javelins from zinc nitrate and urea in aqueous solution is described. The particles (named as `micro-javelins? because of their high aspect ratio and needle-like tips) ... -
A Study of the pH Dependence of Electronically Excited Guanosine Compounds by Picosecond Time-resolved Infrared Spectroscopy
(2009)The photophysical properties of 5?-guanosine monophosphate (5?-GMP) and polyguanylic acid {poly(G)} in D2O solutions of varying pH have been studied using picosecond transient infrared absorption spectroscopy. Whereas ... -
Picosecond infrared probing of the vibrational spectra of transients formed upon UV excitation of stacked G-tetrad structures
(2007)The photophysical properties of stacked G-tetrads in diverse systems, including concentrated solutions of 59-guanosine monophosphate (59-GMP), polyguanylic acid (poly(G)) and the G-rich oligodeoxynucleotide sequence ... -
Ultrafast IR spectroscopy of the short-lived transients formed by UV excitation of cytosine derivatives
(2007)A strong infrared band at 1574 cm(-1) is observed following 267 nm excitation of 2'-deoxycytidine (tau = 37 +/- 4 ps) or 2'-deoxycytidine 5'-monophosphate (tau = 33 +/- 4 ps); this band is provisionally attributed to an ... -
Solvent dependent photophysics of fac-[Re(CO)3(11,12-X2dppz)(py)]+ (X = H, F or Me)
(2007)The photophysical properties of [Re(CO)3(dppz)(py)]+ (dppz = dipyrido-[3,2-a:2 ,3 -c] phenazine) (1) and its 11,12 substituted derivatives [Re(CO)3(dppzMe2)(py)]+ (2) and [Re(CO)3(dppzF2)(py)]+ (3) have been examined in ... -
Reduction of Dipyrido [3,2-a:2',3'-c] phenazine (dppz) by Photolysis in Ethanol Solution
(2005)Photolysis of dipyrido-[3,2-a:2?,3?-c]-phenazine (dppz) (1) in ethanol solution leads to the formation of 9,14-dihydrodipyridophenazine (2), which has been characterised by detailed NMR analysis, UV/VIS absorption spectroscopy, ... -

Misuse of the Right to Family Reunification: Ireland
(Report prepared for the European Commission Directorate-General Home Affairs & published by the ESRI, 2012)This EMN focused study looks at two instances of misuse of the right to family reunification in Ireland, namely marriages of convenience and false declarations of parenthood. -
