Mechanistic study on the metallocene-based tandem catalytic coordinative chain transfer polymerization for the synthesis of highly branched polyolefi…
2021
Abstract Creation and control of long-chain branches (LCBs) in coordination polymerization of olefins is an enduring focus of research in both academia and industry. We have recently introduced a tandem catalytic coordinative chain transfer polymerization reaction where upon the concerted function of the polymerization catalyst, the chain transfer agent (CTA), and the displacement catalyst, a highly branched microstructure can be formed. Here we introduce a new tandem catalytic system using Et(Ind)2ZrCl2 as the polymerization catalyst. Despite the optimal reaction temperature for the cooperative function of catalyst components is lower than the ideal temperature for the productivity of the …
Effect of bulkiness and lewis acidity of aluminium compounds on the anionic polymerization of methyl methacrylate in toluene
1996
The bulkiness and the Lewis acidity of added aluminium compounds strongly affect the polymerization of methyl methacrylate in toluene at −78°C. The polymerization strongly deviates from ‘ideal’ first-order kinetics, i.e. the first-order time-conversion plots are kinked at low monomer conversions. Additionally, for the more bulky and more Lewis-acid aluminium alkyls, the time-conversion plots show a further downward curvature. This curvature is not the result of a termination reaction because the polymers are free of side products like β-ketoesters or vinyl ketone units. The molecular weight distributions and tacticities of the resulting polymers are also affected. Dependent on the aluminium…

Dynamic magnetic MOFs.
2012
In this review we combine the use of coordination chemistry with the concepts of molecular magnetism to design magnetic Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) in which the crystalline network undergoes a dynamic change upon application of an external stimulus. The various approaches so far developed to prepare these kinds of chemically or physically responsive MOFs with tunable magnetic properties are presented.

This paper describes the synthesis and characterization of several Copper(II)-uracil-1-propionic acid (UPrOH) coordination compounds, including the theoretical and experimental study of their cryst...
MCM-41 and related materials as media for controlled polymerization processes
1994
The synthesis of mesoporous MCM-41 type materials based on transition metal oxides and the polymerization of several monomers within MCM-41 is presented with the aim to specifically investigate the effects of the interface and confinement on host-guest interactions. In addition to standard MCM-41, material based on transition metal oxides is obtained although template removal has been unsuccessful for such compounds until now. In situ polymerization of styrene, methyl methacrylate and vinyl acetate is possible within the mesopore system. The properties of some of the encapsulated polymers differ markedly with those obtained in the bulk.
Oxamato-based coordination polymers: recent advances in multifunctional magnetic materials
2014
The design and synthesis of novel examples of multifunctional magnetic materials based on the so-called coordination polymers (CPs) have become very attractive for chemists and physicists due to their potential applications in nanoscience and nanotechnology. However, their preparation is still an experimental challenge, which requires a deep knowledge of coordination chemistry and large skills in organic chemistry. The recent advances in this field using a molecular-programmed approach based on rational self-assembly methods which fully exploit the versatility of the coordination chemistry of the barely explored and evergreen family of N-substituted aromatic oligo(oxamato) ligands are prese…
Ligand design for multidimensional magnetic materials: a metallosupramolecular perspective.
2008
The aim and scope of this review is to show the general validity of the ‘complex-as-ligand’ approach for the rational design of metallosupramolecular assemblies of increasing structural and magnetic complexity. This is illustrated herein on the basis of our recent studies on oxamato complexes with transition metal ions looking for the limits of the research avenue opened by Kahn's pioneering research twenty years ago. The use as building blocks of mono-, di- and trinuclear metal complexes with a novel family of aromatic polyoxamato ligands allowed us to move further in the coordination chemistry-based approach to high-nuclearity coordination compounds and high-dimensionality coordination po…
Cluster dirhenium(III) cis-dicarboxylates with α-amino acids ligands as mighty selective G4s binders.
2021
The synthesis of four dirhenium(III) cis-dicarboxylates with the α-amino acids residues Asp (I), Glu (II), Phe (III) and Tyr (IV) is presented. The G-quadruplex stabilization potential was evaluated by fluorescence resonance energy transfer - melting analysis. All derivatives show specific binding to c-kit1 quadruplex, while II and IV have also strong stabilization activity to HTelo21 quadruplex. At the same time, the compounds do not show any stabilization activity for ds26 DNA, which suggests unique mechanisms of molecular DNA recognition for these complexes.
