Weighting non-covalent forces in the molecular recognition of C60. Relevance of concave–convex complementarity
2008
The relative contributions of several weak intermolecular forces to the overall stability of the complexes formed between structurally related receptors and [60]fullerene are compared, revealing a discernible contribution from concave–convex complementarity.

Coordination isomerism in spin crossover (SCO) materials
2021
International audience; A new series of three spin crossover (SCO) Fe(II) complexes based on a cyanocarbanion and on the neutral quinolin-8-amine (aqin) ligands, [Fe(aqin)2(tcnsme)2] (1), [Fe(aqin)2(tcnset)2] (2), and [Fe(aqin)2(tcnspr)2] (3), has been studied. The three complexes display similar molecular structures consisting of discrete [Fe(aqin)2(tcnsR)2] complexes [R = Me (1), Et (2), and Pr (3)]. Infrared spectroscopy and magnetic studies, performed on the three complexes, revealed the presence of similar SCO behaviors which strongly differ by their transition temperatures [234 K (1) < 266 K (2) < 360 K (3)]. The increase of the transition temperatures when passing from 1 to 3 may be …
Supramolecular self-assembly on the B-Si(111)-(√3x√3) R30° surface: From single molecules to multicomponent networks
2017
Abstract Understanding the physical and chemical processes in which local interactions lead to ordered structures is of particular relevance to the realization of supramolecular architectures on surfaces. While spectacular patterns have been demonstrated on metal surfaces, there have been fewer studies of the spontaneous organization of supramolecular networks on semiconductor surfaces, where the formation of covalent bonds between organics and adatoms usually hamper the diffusion of molecules and their subsequent interactions with each other. However, the saturation of the dangling bonds at a semiconductor surface is known to make them inert and offers a unique way for the engineering of m…
