The use of calixarenes in metal-based catalysis (2008)
Journal Article
Homden, D. M., & Redshaw, C. (2008). The use of calixarenes in metal-based catalysis. Chemical reviews, 108(12), 5086-5130. https://doi.org/10.1021/cr8002196

A study was conducted to demonstrate the use of calixarenes in metal-based catalysis. The study focused on rare earth metal-containing species,including neodymium to demonstrate the use of calixarenes in metal-based catalysis. It was found that the a...

Multinuclear alkylaluminium macrocyclic Schiff base complexes: Influence of procatalyst structure on the ring opening polymerisation of ε-caprolactone (2008)
Journal Article
Arbaoui, A., Redshaw, C., & Hughes, D. L. (2008). Multinuclear alkylaluminium macrocyclic Schiff base complexes: Influence of procatalyst structure on the ring opening polymerisation of ε-caprolactone. Chemical communications : Chem comm / the Royal Society of Chemistry, 4717-4719. https://doi.org/10.1039/b810417d

Two remote dialkylaluminium centres supported by a macrocyclic Schiff base ligand exhibited beneficial cooperative effects, whilst aluminoxane-type bonding proved to be detrimental to activity for the ring opening polymerisation of ε-caprolactone.

Early transition metal complexes bearing a C-capped tris(phenolate) ligand incorporating a pendant imine arm: Synthesis, structure, and ethylene polymerization behavior (2008)
Journal Article
Wright, J. A., Hughes, D. L., Elsegood, M. R., Redshaw, C., & Homden, D. (2008). Early transition metal complexes bearing a C-capped tris(phenolate) ligand incorporating a pendant imine arm: Synthesis, structure, and ethylene polymerization behavior. Inorganic chemistry, 47(13), 5799-5814. https://doi.org/10.1021/ic702506w

The ligand 3-[2,2′-methylenebis(4,6-di-tert-butylphenol)-5-tert- butylsalicylidene-(2,6-diisopropyl)phenylimine] (L 1 H 3 ) was reacted with MCl 4 (M = Ti, Zr) or MCl 5 (M = Nb, Ta) to give complexes of the type [MCl 2 (L 1 H 2 ) 2 ] (M = Ti (1);...

Cellular uptake of a fluorescent calix[4]arene derivative (2008)
Journal Article
Matthews, S. E., Redshaw, C., Baillie-Johnson, H., Lalor, R., & Mueller, A. (2008). Cellular uptake of a fluorescent calix[4]arene derivative. Journal of the American Chemical Society, 130(10), 2892-2893. https://doi.org/10.1021/ja0782596

A rapid synthetic route to a nontoxic fluorescently labeled water-soluble calixarene has been developed. Investigation of the cellular uptake of the labeled calixarene, via confocal microscopy, through coincubation with uptake inhibitors demonstrates...
