In this review, we have portrayed the structure, synthesis and applications of a variety of
biomimetic MOFs from an unprecedented angle. Synthetic MOF analogues of five distinct …

The Huisgen 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of organic azides and alkynes1, 2 has
gained considerable attention in recent years due to the introduction in 2001 of Cu (1) …

The concept of a fuel cell dates back to 1839, from independent studies by Grove and
Schoenbein. 1, 2 Like a battery, a fuel cell is a device for obtaining electrical energy directly …

It was a physicist, Wolfgang Pauli, who recognized a century ago that “God made the bulk;
the surface was invented by the devil.” And indeed, adjusting the surface properties of …

The concept of “click” chemistry, introduced by Sharpless and coworkers a couple of years
ago, promotes the use of efficient, selective and versatile chemical reactions in synthetic …

Biofuel cells provide a versatile means to generate electrical power from environmentally
friendly biomass or biofuels. Immobilization technology has played an important role in the …

Background There is growing interest in the attachment of proteins to solid supports for the
development of supported catalysts, affinity matrices, and micro devices as well as for the …

The outstanding chemical and structural features of 12-MC-4 metallacrowns allow for
versatile applications in magneto-chemical research. Herein, we present three novel …

A functional heme/nonheme nitric oxide reductase (NOR) model is presented. The fully
reduced diiron compound reacts with two equivalents of NO leading to the formation of one …

This tutorial review discusses the immobilization of alkyne-terminated cytochrome c oxidase
models on azide-functionalized self-assembled monolayers (SAM) coated gold electrodes …
