A detailed knowledge of the structures of the catalytic steps along the Kok-Joliot cycle of Photosystem II may help to understand the strategies adopted by this unique enzyme to achieve water oxidation. Vibrational spectroscopy has probed in the last decad ...
A laser spectroscopic study on the structure and dynamics of cold host–guest inclusion complexes of crown ethers (CEs) with various neutral and ionic species in the gas phase is presented. The complexes with neutral guest species are formed by using supers ...
Electronic and vibrational spectra of benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) and benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6) complexes with alkali metal ions, M+•B15C5 and M+•B18C6 (M = Li, Na, K, Rb and Cs), are measured using UV photodissociation (UVPD) and IR-UV double resonance spectr ...
Calculated structures of the two most stable conformers of a protonated decapeptide gramicidin S in the gas phase have been validated by comparing the vibrational spectra, calculat- ed from first- principles and measured in a wide spectral range using infr ...
Hydrogen bonding in ionic liquids based on the 1-(2'-hydroxylethyl)-3-methylimidazolium cation (C(2)OHmim) and various anions (A) of differing H-bond acceptor strength, viz. hexafluorophosphate PF6, tetrafluoroborate BF4, bis-(trifluoro ...
This study compares the structure and decomposition behaviors of theα,β, and γ polymorphs of Ca(BH 4) 2 for hydrogen storage. Samples with different polymorphic contents are characterized using powder X-ray diffraction and vibrational spectroscopy. Decompo ...
A combined DFT/vibrational spectroscopy approach is used to determine the interactions of the 1,3-dimethylimidazolium ([Mmim]+) and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ([Emim]+) cations and [BF4]- anions with each other in the liquid state and with Pd nanoparticle ...
We measure UV photodissociation (UVPD) spectra of cold benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) and benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6) complexes with divalent ions (M2+ = Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, and Mn2+), solvated with an H2O or a CH3OH molecule: M2+·B15C5·H2O, M2+·B15C5·CH3OH, M2+·B18C ...
We have investigated the infrared spectra of the quarter-filled charge-ordered insulators delta-(EDT-TTF-CONMe2)(2)X (X=AsF6, Br) along all three crystallographic directions in the temperature range from 300 to 10 K. DFT-assisted normal mode analysis of th ...
The dynamics and bonding of the complex hydride LiBH4 have been investigated by vibrational spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT). The combination of infrared, Raman, and inelastic neutron-scattering (INS) spectroscopies on hydrided and deuterat ...
