Electron-transfer properties of heme and non-heme high-valent metal-oxo complexes are
overviewed in relation to their reactivity toward oxidation of substrates. The rate constants of …

The anisotropy barrier and blocking temperature of single-molecule magnets (SMMs)
depend on the total spin S (and therefore to some extent on the size of the molecule) as well …

Enzymes are highly efficient catalysts in Nature that often react with high stereo-, chemo-,
and regioselectivity. Usually, enzymes achieve this selectivity through substrate binding and …

As an essential metal ion and an efficient relaxation agent, Mn2+ holds a great promise to
replace Gd3+ in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent applications, if its stable …

While MnII complexes meet increasing interest in biomedical applications, ligands are
lacking that enable high MnII complex stability and selectivity vs. ZnII, the most relevant …

Oxoiron (IV) species have been found to act as the oxidants in the catalytic cycles of several
mononuclear nonheme iron enzymes that activate dioxygen. To gain insight into the factors …

The mechanism of sulfoxidation of thioaniosoles by a non-heme iron (IV)− oxo complex is
switched from direct oxygen transfer to metal ion-coupled electron transfer by the presence …

We report a nonadentate bispidine (3, 7-diazabicyclo [3.3. 1] nonane) that unveils the
potential to bind theranostically relevant radionuclides, including indium-111, lutetium-177 …

For the first time, derivatives of 3, 7-diazabicyclo [3.3. 1] nonane (bispidine) were proposed
as potential inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 main viral protease (3-chymotrypsin-like, 3CLpro) …

The synthesis of the octadentate bispidine ligand bearing two picolinic acid pendant arms
(H2bispa2), and its coordination chemistry with radionuclides relevant for nuclear medicine …
