Methane adsorption in metal-organic frameworks containing nanographene linkers: a computational study (2014)
Journal Article
Bichoutskaia, E., Suyetin, M., Bound, M., Yong, Y., & Schröder, M. (2014). Methane adsorption in metal-organic frameworks containing nanographene linkers: a computational study. Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 118(29), https://doi.org/10.1021/jp503210h

Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials are known to be amenable to expansion through elongation of the parent organic linker. For a family of model (3,24)-connected MOFs with the rht topology, in which the central part of organic linker comprises a...

The Ketimide Ligand is Not Just an Inert Spectator: Heteroallene Insertion Reactivity of an Actinide-Ketimide Linkage in a Thorium Carbene Amide Ketimide Complex (2014)
Journal Article
Lu, E., Lewis, W., Blake, A. J., & Liddle, S. T. (2014). The Ketimide Ligand is Not Just an Inert Spectator: Heteroallene Insertion Reactivity of an Actinide-Ketimide Linkage in a Thorium Carbene Amide Ketimide Complex. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 53(35), 9356-9359. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201404898

The ketimide anion R2C[DOUBLE BOND]N− is an important class of chemically robust ligand that binds strongly to metal ions and is considered ideal for supporting reactive metal fragments due to its inert spectator nature; this contrasts with R2N− amid...

Dolomitization of Lower Cretaceous Peritidal Carbonates By Modified Seawater: Constraints From Clumped Isotopic Paleothermometry, Elemental Chemistry, and Strontium Isotopes (2014)
Journal Article

This study investigates one of the few examples of dolomitization of Lower Cretaceous shallow-water limestonesfrom the southern Tethys carbonate platform from outcrops on the Haushi-Huqf High in central-east Oman. Mud-dominatedperitidal carbonates ri...

Engineering a reagentless biosensor for single-stranded DNA to measure real-time helicase activity in Bacillus (2014)
Journal Article
Green, M., Gilhooly, N. S., Abedeen, S., Scott, D. J., Dillingham, M. S., & Soultanas, P. (2014). Engineering a reagentless biosensor for single-stranded DNA to measure real-time helicase activity in Bacillus. Biosensors and Bioelectronics, 61, 579-586. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bios.2014.06.011

Single-stranded DNA-binding protein (SSB) is a well characterized ubiquitous and essential bacterial protein involved in almost all aspects of DNA metabolism. Using the Bacillus subtilis SSB we have generated a reagentless SSB biosensor that can be u...

Synthesis of spirocyclic enones by rhodium-catalyzed dearomatizing oxidative annulation of 2-alkenylphenols with alkynes and enynes (2014)
Journal Article
Kujawa, S., Best, D., Burns, D. J., & Lam, H. W. (2014). Synthesis of spirocyclic enones by rhodium-catalyzed dearomatizing oxidative annulation of 2-alkenylphenols with alkynes and enynes. Chemistry - A European Journal, 20(28), https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201403454

The dearomatizing oxidative annulation of 2-alkenylphenols with alkynes and enynes proceeds with high yields and regioselectivities under Rh(III) catalysis. These reactions are successful using Cu(OAc)2 or air as the stoichiometric oxidant, and provi...
