Macromolecule Metal Complexes Mmc 8

The IUPAC 8th International Symposium on Macromolecule-Metal Complexes (MMC-8 Tokyo) was held at the International Conference Center of Waseda University, Tokyo in September 1999. Topic areas presented included several basic and applied topics in the field of advanced MMC such as preparation, characterization and fundamental aspects, macromolecules for advanced technologies including the sub-topics of electron- and ion conductors, separation, adsorption, transport of gas molecules, electronic-, magnetic-, photonic properties, catalysis and photocatalysis, liquid crystals, and biological-, medical- and environmental use.

The 9th IUPAC International Symposium on Macromolecule–Metal Complexes (MMC–9) was held at the Polytechnic University in Brooklyn, NY ; August 19–23,2001. The topics addressed included: – macromolecule–metal complexes in "green Chemistry" – polyelectrolytes and polymer batteries – electronic, magnetic and optical properties of macromolecule–metal complexes – biorelated complexes – physical properties The role of metal ions, complexes and clusters inmacromolecular systems was discussed wherein the polymer systems were either natural or synthetic (organic or inorganic). Plenary and selected lectures are presented in this volume of Macromolecular Symposia. This text is intended for scientists, engineers and other technical personnel who seek a current assessment of the rapidly growing field of macromolecule–metal complexes.

The 10th IUPAC International Symposium on Macromolecule-Metal Complexes (MMC-10) took place from May 18-23, 2003 in a boat traveling from Moscow along the Volga river. Areas presented included several basic and applied topics in the field of advanced MMC. Presented were the latest results in the fundamental aspects of: Macromolecule metal complexes (synthesis, structure, properties) Electron and photonic transfer Catalysis and separation processes Supramolecules Dendrimers Molecular recognition Metal ion conductive polymers Environmental application of MMC were widely discussed.

The first concise overview on the topic, spanning the spectrum from fundamentals to new application areas. The synthesis, kinetics and thermodynamics of these complexes are covered in detail, while much emphasis is placed on special properties such as gas transport, charge transport, catalysis and light-induced processes. Furthermore, the authors treat the actual working areas for new application methods. In all, a very helpful tool for polymer and materials scientists, as well as organic and physical chemists working in these fields.

Metals and metal complexes can form compounds with organic macromolecules that show amazing properties. As is so often the case, nature leads by example. Synthetically produced model compounds, such as phthalocyanines, porphyrines or metalloproteins, as well as metallorganic polymers have aroused much interest in materials science. Their special magnetic, electrochemical and photochemical properties open up new perspectives in microelectronics and sensors. This compact manual is aimed at all organic, inorganic, polymer and physical chemists as well as materials scientists looking for competent and detailed information on the current state of this interdisciplinary area of research. It covers all questions relating to the targeted design of metallic macromolecules, from proven synthesis methods right up to the latest strategies. It also treats major progress in the determination of their structures, the physical-chemical properties of promising compounds and their potential in microelectronics and sensors. Furthermore, the most important methods of synthesis and investigation are presented in detail in an experimental section, while a comprehensive collection of pertinent original literature round s off this unique reference on all matters relating to macromolecular metal complexes.
