General description

1,10-Phenanthroline-5,6-dione (phendio) forms Cu(II) and Ag(I) phendio complexes, which show potent anti-fungal and anti-cancer activity.[1] The modification of glassy carbon (GC) electrodes with phendio complexes of transition metals leads to the catalytic oxidation of NADH at low overpotential.[2]

Application

1,10-Phenanthroline-5,6-dione may be used in the preparation of homo- and heterometallic complexes with early transition metal ions.[3]
A Bifunctional quinone oxidant which, when used in conjunction with Zn2+ catalysts, is used to affect the aerobic oxidation of secondary amines to a variety of value added motifs, including indoles.

We report the combinatorial preparation and high-throughput screening of a library of modified electrodes designed to catalyze the oxidation of NADH. Sixty glassy carbon electrodes were covalently modified with ruthenium(II) or zinc(II) complexes bearing the redox active 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione (phendione) ligand

To improve the electrocatalytic activities of carbon nanotubes (CNT) towards the oxidation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), we derive them with a redox mediator, 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione (PD), by the noncovalent functionalization method. The redox carbon nanotubes (PD/CNT/GC) show excellent electrocatalytic activities

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  

  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer

    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer

    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
