Organically Doped Metals: A New Family of Materials
Abstract
Organically doped metals have been the focus of this program. Diverse directions of research have been employed, leading to a wealth of results and new insights have resulted. These include: 1. The development of an electrochemical entrapment method. 2. The development of an entrapment method tailored to hydrophobic polymers. 3. The development of several novel catalysts, notably the new concept of an organometallic catalyst entrapped within a metal. 4. The development of a methodology for entrapment of enzymes within silver and gold. 5. The demonstrating of the ability to control metal conductivity through polymers doping. 6. The induction of chirality within Ag, Au and Pd, and the use of the latter for enantioselective catalysis.
