Porphyrins and other tetrapyrrole macrocycles possess an impressive variety of functional
properties that have been exploited in natural and artificial systems. Different metal centres …

The concept of using single molecules as key building blocks for logic gates, diodes and
transistors to perform basic functions of digital electronic devices at the molecular scale has …

Using nanomaterials to achieve functional enzyme mimics (nanozymes) is attractive for both
applied and fundamental research. Laccases are multicopper oxidases highly important for …

Controlling selectivity of reactions is an ongoing quest in chemistry. In this work, we
demonstrate reversible and selective bond formation and dissociation promoted by tip …

Given its central role in photosynthesis,,, and artificial energy-harvesting devices,,, energy
transfer has been widely studied using optical spectroscopy to monitor excitation dynamics …

The current review is devoted to nanozymes, ie, nanostructured artificial enzymes which
mimic the catalytic properties of natural enzymes. Use of the term “nanozyme” in the …

Although the local environment of a molecule can play an important role in its chemistry,
rarely has it been examined experimentally at the level of individual molecules. Here we …

Rearrangements that change the connectivity of a carbon skeleton are often useful in
synthesis, but it can be difficult to follow their mechanisms. Scanning probe microscopy can …

Herein, we report an effectual method for designing a novel form of nanozyme laccase
mimic namely Cu/H3BTC, using copper ions and 1, 3, 5-benzene tricarboxylic acid (1, 3, 5 …

The band structure and electronic properties of a material are defined by the sort of
elements, the atomic registry in the crystal, the dimensions, the presence of spin–orbit …
