The petrochemical industry accounts for a large proportion of global chemical industry, as such even subtle improvements in product yield can result in significant economic and...

Ionic liquids are of interest to chemistry and material sciences because of their designerproperties. The protic ionic liquids are excellent proton carriers in fuel cell...

A future hydrogen economy requires dense, safe, efficient and reversible hydrogen storage materials [1]. For mobile and in many cases also for stationary applications the...

Pearlman¿s catalyst is commonly used in various hydrogenation, arylation and O-debenzyaltion reactions. The catalyst is unusual that it is active but not pyrophoric. It is...

This application for beam time on TOSCA is a crucial component of a study into the dynamics, structure and reactivity of kaolinite and its dehydroxylation products....

The IPCC report 2007 underlines the particular importance of aerosol particles for the water cycle and the radiation balance, and thus for the global climate. In Cirrus clouds...

The present study aims at gathering detailed information on the cisplatin-DNA interaction, particularly with the purine bases, by Inelastic Neutron Scattering spectroscopy, in...

We request 9 days on TOSCA to study (i) the interaction of adsorbed H2 gas molecules with a gated indium-based metal-organic framework (MOF) NOTT-200 as a function of H2 and...

Ionic liquids are of interest to chemistry and material sciences because of their designer properties. The protic ionic liquids are excellent proton carriers in fuel cell...

High surface area, functionalized metal-organic frameworks (MOF) have been shown to not only capture CO2, but to selectively do so over other gases like nitrogen. There are both...

We have done extensive structural and computational studies on the recently discovered phenomenon of negative thermal expansion (NTE) in metal-organic framework (MOF) materials,...

The recently designed CPO-27-M, where M=Mg,Mn,Fe,Co,Ni, and Zn represent a family of metal-organic framework compounds with the highest density of coordinatively unstaurated...

This proposal will use Inelastic Neutron Scattering (INS) spectroscopy at TOSCA to establish the vibrational frequencies in nanoporous zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)...

In recent years, soluble derivatives of CuH prepared by non-aqueous routes have become important as mild reducing agents, one such compound, Stryker¿s reagent [Ph3PCuI]6. The...

Hydrogen Peroxide is one of the cleanest, most versatile strategic base chemicals available. It is used at the large scale as oxidising agent in the chemical industry, as a...

The vibrational spectrum of C70 has been investigated by many techniques since it became available in significcant quantities. Previous INS spectra were recorded with small...

An interesting family of Cu (II)-framework (NOTT100 series) has been synthesized at the University of Nottingham by the group of research of Martin Schröder. Earlier studies on...

We request 3 days on TOSCA to study molecular rotations of NH4+ and BH4- ions and the ionic disorder in ammonium borohydride (rock salt lattice) and its methylated derivative....

We propose to investigate the detailed spectroscopy of the expanded metal systems 7Li(NH3)4 and 7Li(ND3)4 by inelastic neutron scattering. 7Li(NH3)4 shows multiple phase...

Our report of a novel cationic dipalladium(I) hydride in (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 6315) shows a linear Pd-Pd-H core with H-ligand dynamics (solution NMR). Ab-initio MD...
