Enantioselective (CpRhIII)-Rh-x-Catalyzed Carboaminations of Acrylates

Nicolai Cramer, Coralie Danielle Annick Duchemin

Enantioselective carboaminations of olefins constitute an attractive strategy for a rapid increase in molecular complexity from readily available starting materials. Reported here is an intermolecular asymmetric carboamination of acrylates using rhodium(II ...

Soft matter probed by nonlinear scattering: self-assembly, interfaces, hydration, and long-range order

Jan Dedic

All organisms are made to a large extent of soft matter - macromolecules such as proteins and polysaccharides, or assemblies of small molecules such as lipids embedded in an aqueous environment. Understanding the role of order in soft matter presents a cha ...

Shear Stress-Responsive Polymersome Nanoreactors Inspired by the Marine Bioluminescence of Dinoflagellates

Esther Amstad, Antoine Claude Jean Vian

Some marine plankton called dinoflagellates emit light in response to the movement of surrounding water, resulting in a phenomenon called milky seas or sea sparkle. The underlying concept, a shear-stress induced permeabilisation of biocatalytic reaction co ...

Long-Range Exciton Diffusion in Two-Dimensional Assemblies of Cesium Lead Bromide Perovskite Nanocrystals

Raffaella Buonsanti, Anna Loiudice

Forster resonant energy transfer (FRET)-mediated exciton diffusion through artificial nanoscale building block assemblies could be used as an optoelectronic design element to transport energy. However, so far, nanocrystal (NC) systems supported only diffus ...

Single-molecule studies of amyloid proteins: from biophysical properties to diagnostic perspectives

Chan Cao

In neurodegenerative diseases, a wide range of amyloid proteins or peptides such as amyloid-beta and alpha-synuclein fail to keep native functional conformations, followed by misfolding and self-assembling into a diverse array of aggregates. The aggregates ...

Hierarchical Micromold Structuring via 2PP Micro-Stereolithography

Ho-Yun Lee

Inspired by nature, a common way to create hydrophobic surfaces is by introducing hierarchical and fractal microstructures on surface. While plenty of studies have demonstratedcreating PDC (polymer derived ceramic) for several applications include SiC-fibe ...

Spectro-electrochemical toolbox for monitoring and controlling quinone-mediated redox-driven molecular gripping

Jovana Milic, Thomas Schneeberger

The control of molecular systems by electrical charge or light is a prerequisite for their application in nanoelectronics. Such potential has been uniquely exploited in quinone-based resorcin[4]arene cavitands that can act as molecular grippers, reversibly ...

Evo-Bots: A Simple, Stochastic Approach to Self-assembling Artificial Organisms

Francesco Mondada, Roderich Gross

This paper describes an alternative path towards artificial life-one by which simple modular robots with novel hybrid motion control are used to represent artificial organisms. We outline conceptually how such a system would work, and present a partial har ...

The Quest for Molecular Grippers: Photo-Electric Control of Molecular Gripping Machinery

Jovana Milic

The quest for nanoscale molecular machines has inspired the search for their close relatives, molecular grippers. This path was paved by the development of resorcin[4]arene cavitands and their quinone-based redox-active congeners. In this Concept article, ...

Pharmacokinetics and biodistribution study of self-assembled Gd-micelles demonstrating blood-pool contrast enhancement for MRI

Lothar Helm, Yohan Van de Looij

Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) requires the use of contrast agents (CAs) to enable accurate diagnosis. There are currently no CAs on the market with appropriate pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters, namely long persistence in the blood, that can be easily ...
