		Chemistry and physics, however, meet on common ground in a well-defined branch of science, named physical chemistry, which is primarily concerned with the correlation of physical properties and chemical composition, and, more generally, with the elucidation of natural phenomena on the molecular theory.
		Inorganic Chemistry Inorganic chemistry is concerned with the descriptive study o f the elements and their compounds, except those of carbon.
		The earliest discoveries in inorganic chemistry are to be found in the metallurgy, medicine and chemical arts of the ancients.

	Resonant charge transfer in the scattering of hydrogen anions from vicinal metal surfaces
		The study of interactions of atomic or molecular ions with plane and nano-structured metal or semiconductor surfaces is relevant for both, our understanding of basic surface chemistry and morphology and for applications, such as etching, semiconductor miniaturization, and catalysis.
		The survival of the ion off vicinal surfaces shows oscillatory structures as a function of the ion parallel velocity as opposed to the steady result for the plane Cu surface, whose electronic motion is assumed free along the parallel direction.
		The number of vicinal terraces the ion interacts with increases with the parallel velocity when the normal velocity is held constant.

	Introduction:
		Thus, for example, the selenium moiety can be easily displaced either directly by reductive deselenenylation (c) or, after oxidation to the corresponding selenoxide or selenone by elimination (a) or by substitution (b), respectively.
		Furthermore, in analogy with what it is observed in the case of the phenyl substituted cyclohexanes, [5] it seems reasonable to assume that the phenyl group occupies an equatorial position.
		In order to explain the observed values of the vicinal coupling constants it can be suggested that the molecule do not assume a perfect chair conformation but it must be partially distorted.

		These cycles are the basis for the construction of synthetic enzymes which mimic horseradish peroxidase or the haloperoxidases for the activation of hydrogen peroxide, templates for chiral halogenations, and templates for the kinetic resolution of enantiomeric mixtures of vicinal dihalides through dehalogenation reactions.
		We are currently exploring the limits of this chemistry as well as the preparation of chiral 2-azetidinones for evaluation as antibiotics and b-lactamse inhibitors, and for the preparation of new taxol derivatives.
		We propose an entirely new approach to circumvent the aforementioned problems and aim to develop a new generation of biosensing/registration platforms that exploit the tailored recognition/switching dye chemistry pioneered by the Detty group and the Bright group's expertise in sol-gel-derived composite materials, analytical biosensing, protein biophysics, and optical spectroscopy.

		He is presently Theodore William Richards Professor of Chemistry at Harvard University, a position he has held since 1979.
		He has developed and applied the valence bond interpretation of s-electron-coupled nuclear spin-spin interactions, proton spin coupling by p electrons in unsaturated molecules, the signs of proton coupling constants, the angular dependence of electron coupled proton interactions in CH2 groups, and the angular dependence of vicinal proton coupling.
		His work on the latter led to the formulation of a well-known equation which has proved useful in structural and stereochemical analysis of organic molecules.

	Molecular Interpretation of Water Structuring and Destructuring Effects: Hydration of Alkanediols (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The deeper oxygen lone pair MESP minima indicate stronger basicity of non-vicinal diols as compared to that of vicinal diols.
		The existence and strength of the intramolecular hydrogen bond in diols is gauged in terms of the electron density at the bond saddle points.
		Thus it is concluded that the vicinal diols are expected to act as water structuring agents, whereas the non-vicinal diols are expected to be water destructuring agents.
