Organic chemistry meets polymers, nanoscience, therapeutics and diagnostics

چکیده
The atom-by-atom control provided by synthetic organic chemistry presents a means of generating new functional nanomaterials with great precision. Bringing together these two very disparate skill sets is, however, quite uncommon. This autobiographical review provides some insight into how my program evolved, as well as giving some idea of where we are going.

Nanoscience : The Role of “ Making ” New Forms of Matter
“Nano” of course means “billionth of”. Nanoscience has been defined as the science of matter with characteristic lengths ranging from 1nm to 100nm. In practice, nanoscience is a collection of portions of traditional disciplines. That is, it is a union of subdisciplines. Here are just a few of the component subdisciplines: materials chemistry, polymer science, colloid chemistry, crystal growth, ...
متن کاملN,N-Dimethylbiguanide immobilized on mesoporous and magnetically separable silica: Highly selective and feasible organocatalyst for synthesis of β-nitroalcohols
An organosuperbase (N,N-dimethylbiguanide) immobilized on mesoporous and magnetically separable silica supports, was found for the first time, to act as a highly-stable, scalable and efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the Henry reaction under mild and neutral condition. Several factors such as catalyst amount, solvent and reaction time concerning the reactivity were also discussed. The proced...

متن کاملRedox-Active Metal-Organic Nanostructure Polymers and Their Remarkable Electrochemical Behavior
A number of redox-active coordination polymers (CPs) or metal- organic frameworks (MOFs) have been successfully synthesized using transition metals and bridging ligands. This article aims to deal with gathering the aforementioned disperse issues regarding the electroactive CPs. It also goes towards illustrating the effects of various factors on the electrochemical behavior of CPs including...
متن کاملNanoporous materials.
The current review article attempts to cover the field of nanoporous materials, thereby materials with voids of the order of 1 nm to 100 nm or even larger. Concepts, that have an effect on a more general basis, are introduced and the common features among the different classes of nanoporous materials are demonstrated enabling understanding their formation and stability. It is seen that the most...
