The conformation of a family of α and α polyglycine-containing organo-polyoxometalates was determined through a mixed experimental/molecular dynamics approach. The flexible peptide arm folds around the metal oxide surface in a rigid arrangement in low to average polarity solvents. The topology of the hybrid is the main factor that determines which oxos from the metal-oxide surface accept a H-bond from the closest amino acid.

Article Synopsis
  • A library of triazolylidene-boranes was created, varying only by the aryl group on the nitrogen atom.
  • Their reactivity was studied through several methods, showing how they interact as hydrogen-atom donors and with methyl acrylate and oxygen.
  • The new compounds proved to be effective as co-initiators for photopolymerization, revealing insights into how electronic factors influence their reactivity.

An organotin-substituted Dawson-type phosphotungstate was covalently linked to a trithiocarbonate group by postfunctionalization methods. This organopolyoxometalate led to a series of polyoxometalate (POM)-poly(N,N-diethylacrylamide) hybrids in a controlled way through reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Detailed comparison with and without the presence of POMs revealed that they do not profoundly disturb the RAFT mechanism, despite their oxidative power.
