Aminophenolato complexes of Mo, W and V In catalytic alkene epoxidation and catechol oxidation
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-11-05)
Mo, W and V are found naturally in metalloenzymes such as the Mo/W oxotransferases and the V haloperoxidases (VHPOs). These enzymes catalyze oxidation reactions related to C, N, S metabolism as well as halogenation. Cu and ...
Structure elucidation and ruminant-related bioactivities of purified proanthocyanidins
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-12-15)
In this thesis work, a group of natural oligomers and polymers called proanthocyanidins was studied via multiple chemical approaches. At first, the proanthocyanidins were purified from eleven Finnish plant species with a ...
Studies on cationic polythiophenes with hydrogen-bonding donor capabilities
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-11-08)
This project focuses on cationic isothiouronium polythiophenes (CITs), a particular type of conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs). In general, CPEs combine a pi-conjugated polymer backbone with pendant ionic groups, which ...
Electrochemical fabrication of nanocomposites towards sustainable energy applications
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-03-08)
In the fight against climate change, effective energy storage applications are required to efficiently store the energy of renewable sources. Supercapacitors are one of the energy storage applications under vigorous research ...
Controlled Decoration of Molecular Spherical Nucleic Acids
(Turun yliopisto, 2022-10-31)
Research on therapeutically effective oligonucleotides (antisense oligonucleotides, ASOs and small interfering RNAs, siRNAs) has grown rapidly during the last decades. Oligonucleotide (ON) therapeutics are nowadays an ...
Highlighting the chemical diversity of plants: modern tools for chemistry education
(Turun yliopisto, 2022-10-28)
The chemical diversity of plants is enormous as plants produce a variety of compounds that play key roles, for instance, in the growth, defence and reproduction of plants. This diversity is not well recognised in chemistry ...
Halogen hectorites : smectites designed to luminesce
(Turun yliopisto, 2017-12-15)
The smectites represent a versatile class of clay minerals, offering possibilities of applications in several industrial and scientific fields. The hectorite belongs to this class, but it has the advantage of production ...
Towards cyclopalladated therapeutic oligonucleotides
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-11-19)
Based on Watson—Crick base pairing principle, therapeutic oligonucleotides bear the potential to either inhibit or alter protein synthesis. Replacing or augmenting Watson—Crick base paring by metal coordination offers a ...
Recognition of single- and double-stranded nucleic acids by covalently mercurated oligonucleotides
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-03-02)
Metal-mediated base pairs have attracted considerable attention during the past decades for their potential in bio- and nanotechnological applications. The introduction of metal ions into DNA or RNA not only stabilizes ...
Semisynthetic preparation of C‑nucleoside 5´-triphosphates as bacterial RNA polymerase substrates
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-12-18)
Interest in natural products as pharmaceutical leads has recently resurfaced due to increasing understanding towards the biosynthesis of natural compounds as well as advancements in methodologies that facilitate the ...
