The synthesis of seven monoazo benzotriazole dyes for use in surface enhanced resonance Raman scattering, SERRS, is reported. The dyes are all capable of complexing to the silver surface used to provide the surface enhancement found in SERRS and hence act as 'model' analytes. One dye was examined in detail and showed…

The crystal structures of two new metal-cyanide clusters with record high nuclearities are reported. A direct assembly reaction involving [(Me(3)tacn)Cr(CN)(3)] (Me(3)tacn = N,N',N"-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane), NiI(2), and KCN in aqueous solution affords [(Me(3)tacn)(12)Cr(12)Ni(12)(CN)(48)](12+). The structure…

In an effort to study viscoelastic (vector) percolation and conductivity (scalar) percolation within a single system, we demonstrate a conducting polymer/solvent system, which upon gelation undergoes a viscoelastic transition, followed by a separate conductivity transition. Polyaniline doped by camphorsulfonic acid, i…

The adhesive power of the mussel is the reason that mussel adhesive proteins have been studied as a (model) system for a possible medical adhesive. After oxidation, the Dopa groups of the blue mussel ( Mytilus edulis ) foot protein Mefp-1 form Dopa−Dopa-quinone cross-links, which leads to the formation of aggregates.…

The computer program SnB implements a direct-methods algorithm, known as Shake-and-Bake , which optimizes trial structures consisting of randomly positioned atoms. Although large Shake-and-Bake applications require significant amounts of computing time, the algorithm can be easily implemented in parallel in order to d…

The effect of molecular weight on the crystallization behavior of isotactic poly(1-butene) (iPB) under quiescent, isothermal conditions is investigated by rheological and optical microscopy techniques. Small-amplitude oscillatory shear experiments are used to determine the critical gel behavior of the crystallizing me…

Absorption microspectrophotometry has been shown to be of considerable help to probe crystalline proteins containing chromophores, metal centres, or coloured substrates/co-factors. Absorption spectra contribute to the proper interpretation of crystallographic structures, especially when transient intermediate states a…

The search for a model that can be used to describe the optical excitation migration in dendrimers has attracted great attention. In most cases in a dendrimer the conjugation is disrupted at the branching point; however, the excitation is delocalized. The strength of interactions among neighboring chromophores plays a…

Abstract A series of ferrocene‐containing liquid‐crystalline polyphosphonates with an even number of methylene groups are reported. All the polymers gave birefringent melts. The mesophase was identified as transparent with an increase in the spacer. The effects of pendant substitution and the spacer were studied with…

We derive the parallel upper critical field, Hc2, as a function of the temperature T in quasi-2D organic compound lambda-(BETS)2FeCl4, accounting for the formation of the nonuniform Larkin-Ovchinnikov-Fulde-Ferrell (LOFF) state. To further check the 2D LOFF model, we propose to study the Hc2(T) curve at low T in tilte…

Novel organoarsenic polymers, poly(vinylene-arsine)s, were synthesized by a free-radical alternating copolymerization of phenylacetylene with cyclooligoarsines as an atomic biradical equivalent. The polymerization between pentamethylpentacycloarsine (1a) or hexaphenylhexacycloarsine (1b) with phenylacetylene (2) in th…

The size-broadened profile given by the lognormal and gamma size distributions of spherical crystallites is considered. An analytical approximation for the size-broadened profile is derived that can be analytically convolved with the strain-broadened and instrumental-broadened profiles. The method is tested on two CeO…
