In this work we have analyzed in detail the magnetic anisotropy in a series of hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate (Tp−) metal complexes, namely [VTpCl]+, [CrTpCl]+, [MnTpCl]+, [FeTpCl], [CoTpCl], and [NiTpCl], and their substituted methyl and tert-butyl analogues with the goal of observing the effect of the ligand field on the magnetic properties. In the [VTpCl]+, [CrTpCl]+, [CoTpCl], and [NiTpCl]...

Artificial implants and biomaterials lack the natural defense system of our body and, thus, have to be protected from bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. In addition to the increasing number of implanted objects, the resistance of bacteria is also an important problem. Silver ions are well-known for their antimicrobial properties, yet not a lot is known about their mode of action. Silver is...

A combination of attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) and modulation excitation spectroscopy (MES) is used to study the enantiodiscriminating interactions between proline and a chiral, self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of N-acetyl-L-cysteine on gold. The N-acetyl-L-cysteine SAM consists of a mixture of protonated and deprotonated molecules. Whereas both species are influenced...

Reactions of the molybdates Na2MoO4•2 H2O and (nBu4N)2[Mo2O7] with [{Ru(arene)Cl2}2] (arene=C6H5CH3, 1,3,5-C6H3(CH3)3, 1,2,4,5-C6H2(CH3)4) in water or organic solvents...

The interconversion mechanisms between three idealized polytopal forms (a square pyramid and two trigonal bipyramids) of [M(bidentate)₂(unidentate)] were investigated by an original combination of molecular mechanics (MM) and density functional theory (DFT) approaches. MM was used to model the mechanistic rearrangement path, and DFT to study selected points along this path. The test case was a...

Der hexadentate und ditopische Ligand 2,5-Bis([2,2']bipyridin-6-yl)pyrazin bildet bei der Selbstorganisationsreaktion mit Fe²⁺-Ionen einen chiralen, quadratförmigen Tetramerkomplex. Das Racemat dieses Komplexes wurde mit Hilfe von Antimonyltartrat in die Enantiomere getrennt. Die Reinheit des Enantiomers wurde durch NMR-Spektroskopie unter Zuhilfenahme eines chiralen, diamagnetischen...

Radical cations were generated from different phenyl-substituted aziridines by pulse radiolysis in aqueous solution containing TlOH.+, N₃. or SO₄.- as oxidants or in n-butyl chloride, by ⁶⁰Co γ radiolysis in Freon matrices at 77 K, and in some cases by flash photolysis in aqueous solution. Depending on the substitution pattern of the aziridines, two...
