Polyoxometalates (POMs) are anions consisting of three or more early transition metals ™ (Gr V and VI) oxoanions (in their highest oxidation state) linked together by a shared oxygen bond to form a 3D framework. Polyoxometalates (POMs) are a rapidly growing class of metal oxo clusters with a wide range...
The aqueous chemistries of two transition metal cations, Zr⁴⁺ and Nb⁵⁺, are examined and then used to develop inorganic precursor solutions. The oxides of these cations (ZrO₂ and Nb₂O₅) are deposited and characterized, and their morphological and optical properties discussed. Due to the obstacles created by niobium's aqueous chemistry, an...
Early studies on the biosynthesis of the quinoline quinone portion of
streptonigrin, 1, had suggested the intermediacy of novel aromatic amino
acids. In order to test this hypothesis, a series of compounds was synthesized
and tested for potential incorporation. [4-¹⁵N] 4-Aminoanthranilic acid,
4 5 a , [4-² H] 7-aminoquinaldinic acid,...
