The non-covalent synthesis of coordination compounds and networks provides promising
avenues towardsmetal-containing supermolecules and nanostructured materials with …

In this review, we discuss the nature and bonding, role of metal acetylacetonates as
precursors for nanoparticle research, polymer science, catalysis and their mechanistic …

Surface coordination chemistry has been traditionally associated with analogies between
metal–ligand bonding in coordination compounds and chemisorptive interactions, the …

Antibacterial metal complex monolayers covalently grafted on bulk surfaces are reviewed,
focusing on the experimental values found for metal: ligand surface stoichiometry, on the …

Covalent modification of flat silicon surfaces is a key step in integrating CMOS technology
and molecular electronics that may lead to novel hybrid microelectronic devices. While much …

This paper reports on the preparation of a porous silicon-based material covalently
functionalized with cavitand receptors suited for the detection of organophosphorus vapors …

Transition metal acetylacetonates have a wide range of technological applications, such as
modifiers in polymers and polymerization catalysts. Since the electronic structure defines the …

A three-step strategy to covalently anchor 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis (hydroxyphenyl) porphyrin
molecules on Si (100) substrates was developed. It consists of the functionalization of the Si …

Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO 2) was used as a green solvent for the grafting of
complex functional organosilanes containing nitrogen moieties on titanium dioxide (TiO 2) …

In this investigation, we report on a representative study that stands for an example of
electronic and structural analyses by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of covalently …
