  • A Lateral Thinker
    CHEMISTRY MASTERCLASS OUTLOOK In physics, the big question is: how can the two great theories in physics — quantum physics and M GRAYSON the theory of gravitation — be unified? There are other questions: what is the content of our Universe? What are dark matter and dark energy? Only four per cent of the Universe is the matter that we are made of; what is the rest? In biology, there is: what is life? We know which elements are important for life, but will it ever be possible for humans to create artificial life? These are the big questions. Chemistry has nothing compared with this. Erwin Schrodinger posed the question ‘what is life?’ seventy years ago in his book of the same title. How close have we come to answering it? The question that Schrodinger was asking was very specific — in essence, do we expect that new laws will be necessary to describe biology? And he couldn’t give an answer, mainly because he was not able to explain the formation of structure in biology. Not only molecular structure, but larger structures as well – for example, how does a cell divide only in the middle? We can start to answer these questions using non-linear dynamics — and that is the field that interests me the most. What is the importance of structure to life? Self-organization is the basis for all kinds of structure formation. Closed systems that have no external inputs will eventually find a state of equilibrium that can be disordered or ordered. For example, salt ions precip- itating out of a solution can assemble into ordered crystals.

Among available catalyst platforms, heterogeneous catalysts are particularly well-disposed toward separation from the reaction mixture via filtration methods, which renders them readily recyclable. Furthermore, heterogeneous catalysts offer numer- ous handlessome without homogeneous analoguesfor performance and selectivity optimization. These handles include nano- particle size, pore profile of porous supports, surface ligands and interface with oxide supports, and flow rate through a solid catalyst bed. Despite these available handles, however, conventional heterogeneous catalysts are themselves often structurally heterogeneous compared to homogeneous catalysts, which complicates efforts to optimize and expand the scope of their reactivity and selectivity. Ongoing efforts in our laboratories are aimed to address the above challenge by heterogenizing homogeneous catalysts, which can be defined as the modification of homogeneous catalysts to render them in a separable (solid) phase from the starting materials and products. Specifically, we grow the small nanoclusters in dendrimers, a class of uniform polymers with the connectivity of fractal trees and generally radial symmetry.

    Schützenstr. 6a 10117 Berlin, Germany Phone: +49 (0) 30-20 65 38 31 Fax: +49 (0) 30- 21234057 [email protected] www.inesglobal.com August 6th, 2009 SCIENTISTS FOR A NUCLEAR WEAPONS-FREE WORLD Scientists and engineers bear a heavy burden of responsibility to society for the creation of nuclear weapons. The immense destructive power of these weapons was demonstrated on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and in over 2,000 atmospheric and underground nuclear tests on the lands of indigenous peoples. Thermonuclear weapons are capable of destroying cities, countries and civilization. They could end intelligent life on Earth. Humanity has been warned again and again of the perils of nuclear weapons and nuclear war. We recall the Russell-Einstein Manifesto, issued on July 9, 1955. The Manifesto warned, “Here, then, is the problem which we present to you, stark and dreadful and inescapable: Shall we put an end to the human race; or shall mankind renounce war?” Human fallibility and nuclear weapons are a dangerous and unacceptable mix. We rely upon human theories concerning nuclear weapons, such as the theory of nuclear deterrence, at our peril. Since Nagasaki, humankind has been spared nuclear war far more by good fortune than by sound planning. This good fortune will not be possible to maintain indefinitely – particularly, as is foreseeable, if nuclear weapons continue to proliferate and fall into the hands of non-state extremist groups. Nuclear weapons were created by humans, and it is our responsibility to eliminate them before they eliminate us and much of the life on our planet.

  • Organometallic Chemistry at the Nanoscale
    Pure Appl. Chem., Vol. 75, No. 4, pp. 461–481, 2003. © 2003 IUPAC Organometallic chemistry at the nanoscale. Dendrimers for redox processes and catalysis* Didier Astruc Laboratoire de Chimie Organique et Organométallique, UMR CNRS No 5802, Université Bordeaux I, 33405 Talence Cedex, France Abstract: An overview of the metal-mediated synthesis and use of nanosized metalloden- drimers is given with emphasis on electron-transfer processes (molecular batteries consisting in dendrimers decorated with a large number of equivalent redox-active centers) and catalytic reactions (electron-transfer-chain catalytic synthesis of dendrimers decorated with ruthenium carbonyl clusters, redox catalysis of nitrate and nitrite electroreduction in water by star-shape hexanuclear catalysts). INTRODUCTION Although most rules of stoichiometric and catalytic organometallic activation are now known [1], there remains a wide-open field of research for development and applications using the exploration of the best metal-ligand combination toward a given reaction. Present examples can now be found in metathesis that remained restricted to nonfunctional olefins for a long time until the recent successful efforts of Grubbs’ [2] and Schrock’s groups [3]. Their commercial catalysts are now of everyday use for organic and polymer chemists. A previous success story of this kind started in 1970 when Kagan first published efficient asymmetric catalysis with the powerful concept of chiral chelating phosphine [4]. This idea led many chemists, including other prestigious ones, to find optically active drugs with close to 100 % ee, an essential requirement for safe use by the public [5]. What now remains to be done? Indeed, the task is enormous for 21st century organometallic and molecular chemists.
