Sammendrag
To contribute to the fundamental picture of the electronic structure of low-coordinate
transition metal complexes, we have carried out a series of DFT studies on mono-imido and
nitrosyl complexes for different metal ions (MnII/III, FeII/III/IV, CoII/III) and different systems of basal ligands. These studies reveal striking similarities of the electronic structure for these systems. The distinction of bent versus linear NO units is attributed to the ranking of the dz2 and dxz/yz parentage MOs relative to each other. Without a ligand trans to the NO group, the antibonding metal dz2- NO σ orbital interaction is lessened by mixing in metal pz, causing the MO to shift away from the NO ligand. This exact same orbital interaction appears to explain the existence of middle to late first-row transition metal imido complexes.

A Biofocussed Chemoprospecting Approach to Drug Discovery: Design, Synthesis and Bioactivity Screening of Diverse Biofocussed Chemical Libraries
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2017-04-28)With pharma R & D witnessing rising cost, high attrition rates and an overall decline in productivity in recent times, newer approaches are needed for more efficient early phase drug discovery. This thesis describes a new approach, “biofocussed chemoprospecting”. The essence of the approach is to use diverse, yet “bio-like” compounds for efficient hit-finding, along with property filtering and ... -
Novel [18F]fluorinated prosthetic groups for the labelling of peptides for positron emission tyomography (PET)
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2009-11-20)Positron emission tomography is a non-invasive imaging modality allowing visualization and quantification of a wide variety of physiological and biochemical processes or of a specific lowdensity protein target. Some examples are blood flow, glucose consumption, fatty acid metabolism or detection and quantification of cell surface receptors in particular tissues. Within the spectrum of available ... -
Toward Tripeptidomimetic CXCR4 Antagonists: Design, Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Binding Mode Studies
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2014-04-11)In order for the HIV virus to take over and destroy human immune cells, which results in AIDS, the virus first has to enter the cells. This takes place by interactions between viral proteins and specific receptors on the surface of our cells. One of these receptors is CXCR4, and it has been shown that chemical compounds that bind to and block the CXCR4 receptor, so-called CXCR4 antagonists, are able ...
