TiF2: Linear or bent? (2008)
Journal Article
Wilson, A. V., Roberts, A. J., & Young, N. A. (2008). TiF2: Linear or bent?. Angewandte Chemie, 47(9), 1774-1776. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.200704667

Calling nonlinearity into question: When Ti atoms are isolated in fluorine-doped argon matrices, TiF 4 , TiF 3 , TiF 2 , and TiF are identified by their IR spectra. The Ti isotope pattern observed for the ν 3 mode of TiF 2 is indistinguishable from t... Read More about TiF2: Linear or bent?.

The photocatalytic activity of TiO2 foam and surface modified binary oxide titania nanoparticles (2008)

Enzymatic synthesis of a series of alkyl esters using novozyme 435 in a packed-bed, miniaturized, continuous flow reactor (2008)
Journal Article
Woodcock, L. L., Wiles, C., Greenway, G. M., Watts, P., Wells, A., & Eyley, S. (2008). Enzymatic synthesis of a series of alkyl esters using novozyme 435 in a packed-bed, miniaturized, continuous flow reactor. Biocatalysis and biotransformation, 26(6), 466-472. https://doi.org/10.1080/10242420802456571

Using lipase catalysed, enzymatic esterification as a model reaction, we successfully demonstrate the use of miniaturized technology for biocatalytic reactions. Benchmarked against batch reactions, nine alkyl esters have been synthesized effectively,...

Solving open-ended problems, and the influence of cognitive factors on student success (2008)
Journal Article
Overton, T., & Potter, N. (2008). Solving open-ended problems, and the influence of cognitive factors on student success. Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 9(1), 65-69. https://doi.org/10.1039/b801307c

Problem solving is an essential skill for undergraduate chemists to acquire. Many problem solving activities encountered on undergraduate programmes are algorithmic, and require lower order cognitive skills to be applied in order to reach a solution....

Rapid on-chip multi-step (bio)chemical procedures in continuous flow - manoeuvring particles through co-laminar reagent streams (2008)
Journal Article
Peyman, S. A., Iles, A., & Pamme, N. (2008). Rapid on-chip multi-step (bio)chemical procedures in continuous flow - manoeuvring particles through co-laminar reagent streams. Chemical communications : Chem comm / the Royal Society of Chemistry, 1220-1222. https://doi.org/10.1039/b716532c

We introduce a novel and extremely versatile microfluidic platform in which tedious multi-step biochemical processes can be performed in continuous flow within a fraction of the time required for conventional methods.

Nanoporous phospho-tungstate organic-inorganic hybrid materials have been synthesized from sodium tungstate and mono-n-dodecyl phosphate (MDP), which was used as both surfactant and phosphorus precursor. These hybrid materials were thoroughly charact... Read More about Synthesis and characterization of nanoporous phospho-tungstate organic-inorganic hybrid materials.

Concomitant hydrate polymorphism in the precipitation of sparfloxacin from aqueous solution (2008)
Journal Article
