The chemistry of molybdenum is immensely rich and diverse. Molybdenum is essential for life, and has many applications in industry. The first chapter offers a general perspective of the chemistry of molybdenum in high oxidation states dominated by diverse oxo species, such as the MoO22+ and MoO4+ units that are focus of my research. I describe the importance of MoO22+ complexes as models for the active sites of oxo transfer molybdoenzymes (e.g. DMSO oxidase) and for industrial heterogeneous transformation such as the SOHIO process (one of our ultimate goals). I also outline the importance of MoO4+ complexes as procatalysts for metathesis polymerization and as models of deoxygenated active sites of MoO22+ oxygen catalysts that have triggered our interest. The second chapter introduces the synthesis and full characterization of 4-, 5- and 6-coordinated MoO2(OAr)2L0-1 complexes with bulky aryloxide ligands, starting from the MoO2Cl2 or MoO2Cl2(DMF)2 precursors. Steric and electronic modifications in the aryloxide moieties were performed in order to understand their effect in the final structure and yields of the synthesized complexes. The nature and mechanism of formation of the radical species detected in their synthesis is proposed. The third chapter presents the facile synthesis of varios MoO(OAr)4-nCln complexes starting from the MoO2Cl2 precursor. Their mechanism of formation is proposed and the supporting evidence for this new reaction is provided. Steric and electronic modifications in the aryloxide moieties were used to study their structural and electronic effects in the MoO4+ complexes. The fourth chapter outlines the synthesis of Mo(VI) monooxo bisphenoxides with a characteristic cis-chloro cis-bisphoxide arrangement around the MoO4+ unit. Electronic and steric modifications in the bisphenoxide rings were done to determine their effect in the structure and reactivity of the final complexes. The fifth chapter introduces the application of the synthesized MoO(OAr)4-nCln and MoO(bisphenoxides)2Cl2 complexes as procatalysts for olefin metathesis polymerization of norbornene. The correlation between structure and reactivity of the procatalyst is discussed.

Nanoparticles are usually designed for specific applications and selection of the most convenient capping can be a complex task, but is crucial for successful design. In this volume, the authors discuss the selection of functional cappings to coat nanoparticles in a range of different applications. The opening chapter provides an understanding of basic aspects of surface chemistry at the nanoscale. Each following chapter covers a particular kind of capping, beginning with a basic introduction and describing characteristics such as structure, functionality, solubility, (photo)physics, and toxicity. Special emphasis is placed on how important these specific features are in the preparation of smart nanomaterials. In-depth explanations and examples are then presented, highlighting the latest results and cutting-edge research carried out with the selected capping according to the kind of nanoparticle employed (such as rare-earth doped, semiconducting, and metallic). An additional chapter focusses on computational techniques for modelling nanosurfaces. Photoactive Inorganic Nanoparticles: Surface Composition and its Role in Nanosystem Functionality will be a valuable working resource for graduate students, researchers, and industry R&D professionals working in the field of applied nanomaterials. Aids selection of the best functional cappings for particular applications Covers a broad range of application areas, including medical, biological and materials science Provides material on computational techniques for modeling nanosurfaces
Many important industrial chemical processes rely heavily on catalysis and so researchers are always on the lookout for alternative catalytic materials that may improve existing processes or lead to new ones. Families of alternative catalytic materials currently being investigated include the carbides, nitrides and phosphides as well as amorphous boron catalysts. The addition of carbon, nitrogen or phosphorous to transition metals and the creation of boron-transition metal alloys leads to catalytic materials that have interesting properties, with applications in a range of different reactions, including electrocatalysis. This book provides a comprehensive account of the preparation, characterisation and application of these catalytic materials. It is an important reference for researchers and industrialists working in heterogeneous catalysis and materials chemistry.
