    Sammanfattning : The realm of molecular physical chemistry ranges from the structure of matter and the fundamental atomic and molecular interactions to the macroscopic properties and processes arising from the average microscopic behaviour.Herein, the conventional electrodic problem is recast into the simpler molecular problem of finding the electrochemical, real chemical, and chemical potentials of the species involved in redox half-reactions.

  2. 12. Ruthenium(II) Polypyridyl Complexes in Supramolecular Systems relevant to Artificial Photosynthesis

    Författare :Henriette Wolpher; Björn Åkermark; Licheng Sun; Johannes Vos; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ruthenium complexes; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the synthesis and properties of ruthenium complexes relevant to artificial photosynthesis. The work includes preparation of RuIIpolypyridine complexes as well as multi component systems where RuII(bpy)3 or RuII(tpy)2 type complexes are used as photosesnsitizers. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Development and Mechanistic Studies of Molecularly Defined Water Oxidation Catalysts : Catalysts for a Green and Sustainable Future

    Författare :Markus Kärkäs; Björn Åkermark; Jean-François Nierengarten; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; artificial photosynthesis; water oxidation; photochemistry; electrochemistry; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the development of complexes that are active catalysts for H2O oxidation. Promoting proton-coupled electron transfer has been a highly important feature in the development of these catalysts. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Electrochemical Reactions of Quinones at Conducting Polymer Electrodes

    Författare :Canyan Che; Xavier Crispin; Mikhail Vagin; Magnus Jonsson; Viktor Gueskine; Mieczyslaw Lapkowski; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Proton-coupled multielectron transfer reactions are of great abundance in Nature. In particular, two-proton-two-electron transfers in quinone/hydroquinone redox couples are behind oxidative phosphorylation (ADP-to-ATP) and photosystem II. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Using de novo design proteins to explore tyrosine radicals and cation-π interactions

    Författare :Bruce W. Berry; Cecilia Tommos; Anders Hofer; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tyrosine; radicals; cation-pi interactions; de novo designed proteins; biochemistry; biophysics; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Redox cofactors and amino-acid free radicals play important roles in biology. Although many of the same cofactors and amino acids that form these radicals are found across a broad range of biological systems, identical cofactors can have different reduction potentials. The local environment plays a role in defining these redox potentials.
