Pioneering computational methods to calculate diamagnetic susceptibility tensors of organic molecular crystals, have shown that polymorphs of the same molecule can have very different anisotropy in the response to an external magnetic field. The diamagnetic...
From all the manufactured goods generated and consumed in the UK, about 90% are directly or indirectly involved in a catalytic process making these products accessible to the large public and minimising the industrial environmental impact. Computer simulations of such...
We demonstrate a natural mechanism in which, under certain conditions, one molecular type (e.g. an enantiomer) moves towards one direction, while the other – in the opposite one, separating them. This might be of importance due to e.g. a fact that all living...
A new metal-organic framework composed of zinc ions and tripeptide molecules was synthesised in our group and shown to adopt nine distinct crystal structures in a variety of solvents. We exploited this, using mixtures of solvents to control the crystal structure to...
