Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4A Polymeric Copper Complex Based on a Pyrazole Derivative: Synthesis, Spectroscopic, X-Ray, and Biological Activity Studies(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2024) Amin,M.A.; Diker,H.; Şahin,O.; Varlıklı, Canan; Soliman,A.A.A novel 1D coordination polymeric copper complex based on 4-(4′-nitrophenylhydrazono)-5-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dihydropyrazol-3-one was prepared and characterized spectroscopically and thermally and via X-ray crystallographic investigation. The prepared copper-based structure was proved to have a 1D coordination polymer. X-ray studies showed that the polymeric copper complex was of octahedral geometry, the ligand acted as a bidentate ligand, and the nitro group attached to the ligand acted as a bridging group. The cytotoxic activities of the copper polymer were evaluated including against MCF-7 cells (breast cancer cell line), HepG-2 cells (hepatocellular carcinoma), and HCT-116 cells (colon cancer cell line). The morphological alterations of the complex treated cells were investigated using an inverted microscope. The cell cycle and apoptosis were evaluated and reported. The copper polymer exhibited the best antitumor activity against HepG-2 cells (35.22 ± 4.80 μM) while also causing a decline in the G2/M phase and a remarkable enhancement in the early apoptosis. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.Preprint Electronic, Magnetic and Vibrational Properties of Single Layer Aluminum Oxide(2022) Özyurt, A. Kutay; Molavali, Deniz; Şahin, HasanThe structural, magnetic, vibrational and electronic properties of single layer aluminum oxide (AlO2) are investigated by performing state-of-the-art first-principles calculations. Total energy optimization and phonon calculations reveal that aluminum oxide forms a distorted octahedral structure (1T'-AlO2) in its single layer limit. It is also shown that surfaces of 1T'-AlO2 display magnetic behavior originating from the O atoms. While the ferromagnetic (FM) state is the most favorable magnetic order for 1T'-AlO2, transformation to a dynamically stable antiferromagnetic (AFM) state upon a slight distortion in the crystal structure is also possible. It is also shown that Raman activities (350-400 cm^-1) obtained from the vibrational spectrum can be utilized to distinguish the possible magnetic phases of the crystal structure. Electronically, both FM and the AFM phases are semiconductors with an indirect band gap and they can form a type-III vdW heterojunction with graphene-like ultra-thin materials. Moreover, it is predicted that presence of oxygen defects that inevitably occur during synthesis and production do not alter the magnetic state, even at high vacancy density. Apparently, ultra-thin 1T'-AlO2 with its stable crystal structure, semiconducting nature and robust magnetic state is a quite promising material for nanoscale device applications.
