23. Aspects of structure and dynamics of fiber DNA

Ms Liya Khadeeva (Institute Laue-Langevin, Grenoble, University of Rennes 1, Rennes, France)

We study structural and dynamical behavior of DNA molecules by means of neutron scattering using the following ILL beamlines: IN3, IN5 and D22. A classical three-axis spectrometer, IN3, is employed in our experiment to obtain the information about DNA structure; IN5, the time-of-flight spectrometer, is used to measure of the longitudinal phonons in our sample and SANS instrument, D22, helps us...

21. Chiral Hybrid porous materials for enantioselective catalysis: synthesis and reactivity studied by in-situ x-ray power diffraction

Hybrid porous materials have become during the past decade one of the most promising classes of synthetic compounds. These materials have potential applications in various fields, from gas storage purification and separation, heterogeneous catalysis, breathing or even controlled drug delivery. Making a judicious choice of the organic and inorganic building units (BU) it is possible to...

14. Structure, local environment and reactivity of metal centers hosted inside hybrid metal- organic frameworks (MOF) investigated by spectroscopies FTIR, UV-Vis, in situ XAS and high resolution XRPD.

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of crystalline materials constructed by assembling metal-containing centers with multi-dentate organic ligands into a one, two or three-dimensional structure. High crystallinity makes it possible to tune the pore size from several angstroms to a few nanometres by controlling the length of the ligand. The MOFs being studied are UiO-67 MOFs synthesized...
