The subject of bioinorganic chemistry is one of the most intellectually attractive and experimentally demanding frontiers in modern chemical science. The problems of this interdisciplinary field are some of the most fascinating at the interface of chemistry, biology, and medicine.

This volume brings together world-leaders in the field of bioinorganic chemistry, interlinked with spectroscopic and computational/theoretical physical chemists, to discuss current mechanistic insights into the function of many metalloenzymes, as well as small molecule activation, the synthetic analogue approach to metalloproteins/enzymes, artificial enzymes, the therapeutic use of metal-ligand complexes and the methodologies (both experimental and theoretical) in this area of research.

In this volume, the topics covered include:

- Small molecule activation and synthetic analogues
- Techniques for studying the kinetics and thermodynamics of metal-ligand exchange reactions
- Electron transfer, spectroscopy and theory
- Natural and artificial enzymes and medicinal aspects

Über Autor(innen)

Faraday Discussions documents a long-established series of Faraday Discussion meetings which provide a unique international forum for the exchange of views and newly acquired results in developing areas of physical chemistry, biophysical chemistry and chemical physics. The papers presented are published in the Faraday Discussion volume together with a record of the discussion contributions made at the meeting. Faraday Discussions therefore provide an important record of current international knowledge and views in the field concerned. The latest (2020) impact factor of Faraday Discussions is 4.008.
