Provides complete and undiluted knowledge on making inorganic
polymers functional. This comprehensive book reflects the state of
the art in the field of inorganic polymers, based on research
conducted by a number of internationally leading research groups
working in this area. It covers the synthesis aspects of synthetic
inorganic polymers and looks at multiple inorganic monomers as
building blocks, which exhibit unprecedented electronic, redox,
photo-emissive, magnetic, self-healing and catalytic properties. It
also looks at the applications of inorganic polymers in areas such
as optoelectronics, energy storage, industrial chemistry, and
biology. Beginning with an overview of the use of smart inorganic
polymers in daily life, Smart Inorganic Polymers: Synthesis,
Properties and Emerging Applications in Materials and Life Sciences
goes on to study the synthesis, properties, and applications of
polymers incorporating different heteroelements such as boron,
phosphorus, silicon, germanium, and tin. The book also examines
inorganic polymers in flame-retardants, as functional materials,
and in biology. An excellent addition to the polymer scientists'
and synthetic chemists' toolbox Summarizes the state of the art on
how to make and use functional inorganic polymers, from synthesis
to applications Edited by the coordinator of a highly funded
European community research program (COST action) that focuses
specifically on the exploration of inorganic polymers Features
contributions from top experts in the field Aimed at academics and
industrial researchers in this field, Smart Inorganic Polymers:
Synthesis, Properties and Emerging Applications in Materials and
Life Sciences will also benefit scientists who want to get a better
overview on the state-of-the-art of this rapidly advancing area.
Noted experts review the current status of boron-containing drugs
and materials for molecular medical diagnostics Boron-Based
Compounds offers a summary of the present status and promotes the
further development of new boron-containing drugs and advanced
materials, mostly boron clusters, for molecular medical
diagnostics. The knowledge accumulated during the past decades on
the chemistry and biology of bioorganic and organometallic boron
compounds laid the foundation for the emergence of a new area of
study and application of boron compounds as lipophilic
pharmacophores and modulators of biologically active molecules.This
important text brings together in one comprehensive volume
contributions from renowned experts in the field of medicinal
chemistry of boron compounds. The authors cover a range of the most
relevant topics including boron compounds as modulators of the
bioactivity of biomolecules, boron clusters as pharmacophores or
for drug delivery, boron compounds for boron neutron capture
therapy (BNCT) and for diagnostics, as well as in silico molecular
modeling of boron- and carborane-containing compounds in drug
design. Authoritative and accessible, Boron-Based Compounds:
Contains contributions from a panel of internationally renowned
experts in the field Offers a concise summary of the current status
of boron-containing drugs and materials used for molecular
diagnostics Highlights the range and capacity of boron-based
compounds in medical applications Includes information on boron
neutron capture therapy and diagnostics Designed for academic and
industrial scientists, this important resource offers the
cutting-edge information needed to understand the current state of
boron-containing drugs and materials for molecular medical
diagnostics.
