Abstracts 1-68 Relate to the Sunday Program Biology 1. 100 Years of Genetics William Sofer, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ Almost exactly 100 years ago, Thomas Hunt Morgan and his coworkers at Columbia University began studying a small fly, Drosophila melanogaster, in an effort to learn something about the laws of heredity. After a while, they found a single white-eyed male among many thousands of normal red-eyed males and females. The analysis of the offspring that resulted from crossing this mutant male with red-eyed females led the way to the discovery of what determines whether an individual becomes a male or a female, and the relationship of chromosomes and genes. 2. Streptomycin - Antibiotics from the Ground Up Douglas Eveleigh, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ Antibiotics are part of everyday living. We benefit from their use through prevention of infection of cuts and scratches, control of diseases such as typhoid, cholera and potentially of bioterrorist's pathogens, besides allowing the marvels of complex surgeries. Antibiotics are a wondrous medical weapon. But where do they come from? The unlikely answer is soil. Soil is home to a teeming population of insects and roots, plus billions of microbes - billions. But life is not harmonious in soil. Some microbes have evolved strategies to dominate their territory; one strategem is the production of antibiotics. In the 1940s, Selman Waksman, with his research team at Rutgers University, began the first ever search for such antibiotic producing micro-organisms amidst the thousands of soil microbes. The first antibiotics they discovered killed microbes but were toxic to humans. -

Assembly of Multifunctional Materials Using Molecular Cluster Building Blocks
Assembly of Multifunctional Materials Using Molecular Cluster Building Blocks Bonnie Choi Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Columbia University 2018 © 2018 Bonnie Choi All rights reserved Abstract Assembly of Multifunctional Materials Using Molecular Cluster Building Blocks Bonnie Choi This thesis explores the synthesis, properties, and potential applications of molecular clusters and the hierarchical solids that form when complementary clusters are combined. Chapter 1 introduces the diverse set of molecular clusters that I employ as nanoscale building blocks in the assembly of multifunctional materials. The core structure of the molecular clusters is closely related to the superconducting Chevrel phases. In discrete clusters, however, the core is passivated by organic ligands, which add stability and important functionalities. The molecular clusters have rich physical and chemical properties of their own, and I present some of the techniques used to investigate their intrinsic electronic properties. Finally, I review some of the modes by which the molecular clusters interact with another to assemble into hierarchical solids. The structural tunability and complexity embedded in the molecular clusters will enable the design of modular, well-defined, multifunctional materials with desirable electronic and magnetic properties. Chapter 2 details the synthesis and characterization of a family of manganese telluride molecular clusters. By varying the ligands that decorate the surface of the inorganic core, I show that the core structures can be tuned. The study of molecular clusters provides insight into how extended solids form. As such, I make structural comparisons of the clusters to known solid-state compounds. -
Directed Assembly of Metal-Cyanide Cluster Magnets LIANNE M
Acc. Chem. Res. 2005, 38, 325-334 Directed Assembly of Metal-Cyanide Cluster Magnets LIANNE M. C. BELTRAN AND JEFFREY R. LONG* Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720 Received July 13, 2004 ABSTRACT The simple, well-understood coordination chemistry of the cyanide ligand is of significant utility in the design of new single-molecule magnets. Its preference for bridging two transition metals in a linear M′-CN-M geometry permits the use of multidentate blocking ligands in directing the assembly of specific molecular architec- tures. This approach has been employed in the synthesis of numerous high-nuclearity constructs, including simple cubic M4M′4(CN)12 and face-centered cubic M8M′6(CN)24 coordination clusters, as well as some unexpected cluster geometries featuring as many as 27 metal centers. The ability to substitute a range of FIGURE 1. Disc-shaped cluster [Mn12O12(O2CCH3)16(H2O)4]. different transition metal ions into these structures enables adjust- ment of their magnetic properties, facilitating creation of high- spin ground states with axial magnetic anisotropy. To date, at least four different cyano-bridged single-molecule magnets have been characterized, exhibiting spin-reversal barriers as high as 25 cm-1. Ultimately, it is envisioned that this strategy might lead to molecules possessing much larger barriers with the potential for storing information at more practical temperatures. Introduction More than a decade ago, it was discovered that [Mn12O12(O2- 1 CCH3)16(H2O)4] exhibits magnetic bistability. As depicted in Figure 1, this molecular cluster has a disc-shaped core IV consisting of a central Mn 4O4 cubane unit surrounded by a ring of eight oxo- and acetato-linked MnIII centers. -

Expanded Prussian Blue Analogues Incorporating [Re6se8(CN)6] Clusters: Adjusting Porosity Via Charge Balance
8022 J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2001, 123, 8022-8032 3-/4- Expanded Prussian Blue Analogues Incorporating [Re6Se8(CN)6] Clusters: Adjusting Porosity via Charge Balance Miriam V. Bennett, Laurance G. Beauvais, Matthew P. Shores, and Jeffrey R. Long* Contribution from the Department of Chemistry, UniVersity of California, Berkeley, California 94720-1460 ReceiVed April 25, 2001 3-/4- 3-/4- Abstract: Face-capped octahedral [Re6Se8(CN)6] clusters are used in place of octahedral [M(CN)6] complexes for the synthesis of microporous Prussian blue type solids with adjustable porosity. The reaction 3+ 4- between [Fe(H2O)6] and [Re6Se8(CN)6] in aqueous solution yields, upon heating, Fe4[Re6Se8(CN)6]3‚ 36H2O(4). A single-crystal X-ray analysis confirms the structure of 4 to be a direct expansion of Prussian 4- 3+ blue (Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3‚14H2O), with [Re6Se8(CN)6] clusters connected through octahedral Fe ions in a cubic three-dimensional framework. As in Prussian blue, one out of every four hexacyanide units is missing from the structure, creating sizable, water-filled cavities within the neutral framework. Oxidation of (Bu4N)4- [Re6Se8(CN)6](1) with iodine in methanol produces (Bu4N)3[Re6Se8(CN)6](2), which is then metathesized to 2+ 2+ give the water-soluble salt Na3[Re6Se8(CN)6](3). Reaction of [Co(H2O)6] or [Ni(H2O)6] with 3 in aqueous solution affords Co3[Re6Se8(CN)6]2‚25H2O(5)orNi3[Re6Se8(CN)6]2‚33H2O(6). Powder X-ray diffraction data show these compounds to adopt structures based on the same cubic framework present in 4, but with one out of every three cluster hexacyanide units missing as a consequence of charge balance. -
