- Description: Glass carbon electrodes (GCE) were modified with metal organic frameworks (MOFs) containing molybdenum polyoxometallates (Mo POMs) in a copper benzene tricarboxylate framework (HKUST-1). The Mo POMs were introduced via one-pot synthesis (Mo2) and post-synthetic modification (Mo1) techniques. The electrode modifiers were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermal analysis. The modified electrodes’ oxidation capacity toward L-cysteine was studied. Mo POMs significantly improved electron transfer kinetics compared to the bare GCE. The best Mo POM doped electrode (Mo1-GCE) had a catalytic rate constant of 2.2 × 104 M−1 s−1 and a limit of detection of 3.07 × 10−7 M. Under the employed experimental conditions, the detection response for L-cysteine was very fast (within 0.1 s) for all the modified electrodes and selective toward L-cysteine in the presence of other amino acids.

- Description: Crystal structures of six benzaldehyde derivatives (1–6) have been determined and their supramolecular networks were established by an X-ray crystallographic study. The study has shown that the compounds are linked by various intermolecular interactions such as weak C–H⋯O hydrogen bonding, and C–H⋯π, π–π and halogen bonding interactions which consolidate and strengthen the formation of these molecular assemblies. The carbonyl group generates diverse synthons in 1–6 via intermolecular C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds. An interplay of C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and C–H⋯π and π–π stacking interactions facilitates the formation of multi-dimensional supramolecular networks. Crystal packings in 4 and 5 are further generated by type I halogen⋯halogen bonding interactions. The differences in crystal packing are represented by variation of substitution positions in the compounds. Structure 3 is isomorphous with 4 but there are subtle differences in their crystal packing.
