Macromolecule-Metal Complexes


Book Description

The first concise overview on the topic, spanning the spectrum from fundamentals to new application areas. The synthesis, kinetics and thermodynamics of these complexes are covered in detail, while much emphasis is placed on special properties such as gas transport, charge transport, catalysis and light-induced processes. Furthermore, the authors treat the actual working areas for new application methods. In all, a very helpful tool for polymer and materials scientists, as well as organic and physical chemists working in these fields.




Functional Macromolecular Complexes


Book Description

Functional macromolecular complexes are classified as distinctive functional material groups in the fields of chemistry and materials science. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the synthesis and applications of functional macromolecular complexes with a focus on Japanese chemists who are leading this field. Translated from the original Japanese title, it gives an overview of the synthesis, structures, functions, and applications of functional macromolecular complexes in an easily understandable manner. Useful for students who are interested in functional materials, as well as researchers and young scientists new to coordination chemistry in academic and industry settings, the book will help to generate new scientific and technological advances for the future.

Catalysis by Polymer-Immobilized Metal Complexes


Book Description

Deals with a new and promising field developed during the last two decades on the boundary between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. This book presents general information on catalysis for a wide range of organic reactions, e.g., hydrogenation and oxidation reactions, and polymerization transformations. Special attention is paid to electro- and photochemical stimulation of catalytic processes in the presence of immobilized metal complexes. Other topics covered are the quantitative data on the comparison of catalyses by mobile and immobilized metal complexes; main factors affecting the activity of these catalytic systems and methods of optimizing their control; and specific problems of catalysis by fixed complexes (e.g., ligand exchange and electron transfer in metal polymer systems, macromolecular effects and polyfunctional catalysis).

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance


Book Description

As a spectroscopic method, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has seen spectacular growth over the past two decades, both as a technique and in its applications. Today the applications of NMR span a wide range of scientific disciplines, from physics to biology to medicine. Each volume of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance comprises a combination of annual and biennial reports which together provide comprehensive coverage of the literature on this topic. This Specialist Periodical Report reflects the growing volume of published work involving NMR techniques and applications, in particular NMR of natural macromolecules which is covered in two reports: "NMR of Proteins and Nucleic Acids" and "NMR of Carbohydrates, Lipids and Membranes". For those wanting to become rapidly acquainted with specific areas of NMR, this title provides unrivalled scope of coverage. Seasoned practitioners of NMR will find this an invaluable source of current methods and applications. Volume 37 covers literature published from June 2006 to May 2007.




Macromolecules


Book Description
