One central aim of nanotechnology is the creation and exploitation of nanostructured materials with pre-programmed architecture and properties. The fabrication of functional nanostructures relies on versatile protocols of synthetic chemistry enabling the p ...
One large gap in research related to hybrid org./inorg. frameworks pertains to the inability to rationally design materials with targeted structural features and hence properties, a problem that stems from a lack of knowledge of their crystn. processes. Li ...
Metal ions are constituents of many metalloproteins, in which they have either catalytic (metalloenzymes) or structural functions. In this work, the characteristics of various metals were studied (Cu, Zn, Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cd and Ca in proteins with know ...
Ligands that have an affinity for protein targets can be screened very effectively by exploiting favorable properties of long-lived states (LLS) in NMR spectroscopy. In this work, we describe the use of LLS for competitive binding experiments to measure ac ...
The knowledge and understanding of the mechanism as well as the rate constant of the solvent exchange reactions are fundamental, since these reactions represent an important step in complex formation reactions on metal ions. Solvent exchange reactions in a ...
It is recognized that dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an utmost role in aquatic ecosystems by binding trace metals and influencing their speciation, bioavailability and detrimental effects. DOM is considered to protect the aquatic microorganisms from ...
A series of lanthanide adducts with different amounts of 1,10-phenanthroline, chloride ions, and water molecules in the inner and outer coordination spheres are investigated with the aim of relating the chemical bonding pattern in the crystals to the lumin ...
The contribution of the solvation energies to the assembly of polynuclear helicates reduces the free energy of intermetallic repulsion, DEMM, in condensed phase to such an extent that stable D3-symmetrical tetranuclear lanthanide-containing triplestranded ...
The substrate scope of the [2+2] cycloaddn.-cycloreversion (CA-CR) reaction between electron-deficient (2,2-dicyanovinyl)benzene (DCVB) or (1,2,2-tricyanovinyl)benzene (TCVB) derivs. and N,N-dimethylanilino (DMA)-substituted acetylenes was studied. The str ...
This poster presents the measurement of the forces involved in the hydrophobic self assembly process. More precisely the objects of interest are hydrophilic semi spheres with a gold layer on the flat side. The gold layer has been coated with dodeca thiols ...
