Download or read book Rational Design of Ligands for Transition Metal Catalysis written by Sima Yazdani and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation includes exploring two scientific challenges, where both water oxidation catalysis and NH addition to alkynes will benefit greatly from the rational design of ligands. Chapter 1: The long-term goal for scientists is to use sunlight for the energy to split water. The main target of our research is the oxidation half reaction. Water oxidation catalysts have been reported by groups of Sun and Llobet but sustainable catalysis is still impaired by catalyst deactivation. This dissertation attempts to design robust catalysts through manipulating of the apical coordination sites. Chapter 2 uses phosphorus in the primary coordination sphere to create stronger axial ligand-ruthenium bonds; Chapter 3 uses a chelating macrocyclic ligand to reduce the chance of ligand loss. Chapter 4, focuses on the hydroamination of C-C multiple bonds as the most atom-efficient method for the introducing of nitrogen atoms into organic molecules.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supported transition metal (TM) complexes are an emerging class of materials with many potential applications in the chemical industry ranging from separations to catalysis. They offer increased tunability and often also improved performance over their bulk heterogeneous counterparts. Their study and rational design is, however, accompanied by several unique considerations and challenges that we address in this thesis. The first part of the thesis broadly develops and applies computational screening strategies for supported TM complexes. First, we detail how weak C-H[superscript ...]O hydrogen bonds can be exploited to increase selectivity of ferrocenium (Fc+)-based polymer electrode materials for formate adsorption over perchlorate adsorption while maintaining reasonable desorption rates in the reduced (ferrocene, Fc) state. Through a systematic characterization of formate and perchlorate interactions with a small (ca. 40) but diverse set of functionalized Fc+ complexes, we identify and rationalize design rules for functionalizations that simultaneously increase selectivity for formate in aqueous environments while permitting rapid release from Fc. Next, we screen a larger (ca. 500) set of model Fe(II) complexes for methane hydroxylation in order to assess if linear free energy relationships (LFERs), extensively developed to reduce the computational cost of computationally screening bulk heterogeneous catalysts, can also be applied to supported single-site TM catalysts. We demonstrate that structural distortions achievable in porous frameworks and chelating ligands break these LFERs by altering relative d-orbital splittings, thereby revealing a potential strategy for improving the activity of these catalysts. Finally, to address a particularly pervasive issue in density functional theory (DFT) studies of first-row open-shell TM complexes, we investigate how the fraction of exact exchange parameterized in the functional affects computed reaction and spin-splitting energies. We rationalize this sensitivity in terms of differences in metal-ligand electron delocalization and introduce the metal-ligand bond valence as a simple, yet robust, descriptor that unifies understanding of exchange sensitivity for catalytic properties and spin-state ordering in TM complexes.

Download or read book Catalytic Antibodies written by Sudhir Paul and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses fundamental questions concerning the immunological genesis of the catalytic activity in antibodies, its relationship with classical antigen binding activity, and the biochemical mechanisms involved in catalysis. The contents reflect three main challenges in the field, i.e. to delineate the biological functions of catalytic antibodies in autoimmune disease; to isolate therapy-grade antibody catalysts with sufficient specificity and turnover to permit rapid removal of microbial and tumor antigens; and to develop immunogens that recruit immature catalyst-producing B cells into the clonal selection pathway and induce adaptive improvements of the catalytic function. Well-edited and up-to-date, this book reviews the current knowledge in the field and explores ways by which natural and engineered catalytic activities can be harnessed for medical applications. It should therefore be of special interest to immunologists, biochemists, biotechnologists, rheumatologists and pathologists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The series Topics in Current Chemistry Collections presents critical reviews from the journal Topics in Current Chemistry organized in topical volumes. The scope of coverage is all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether in academia or industry, a comprehensive insight into an area where new research is emerging which is of interest to a larger scientific audience. Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field.
