Bioinorganic applications

Bioinorganic applications of m.c.d. spectroscopy copper, rare earth ions, cobalt and non-heme iron systems. D. M. Dooley and J. H. Dawson, Coord. Chem. Rev., 1984, 60,1 (176). 

Limited range of accessible nnclei with current technology primarily Fe for bioinorganic applications. 

Inorganic and bioinorganic applications of IR and Raman spectroscopies are covered in some detail in subsequent sections. General types of information that can be obtained include analytical identification, stracture and symmetry, ligand and functional group identification, metal-ligand and metal-metal bonding potentials and force constants, structural kinetics and dynamics, excited-state properties, vibronic... 

In bioinorganic applications, Cd has attracted considerable interest," due to its function as an effective spin-spy in monitoring the active site in metalloproteins where the native metals have poor spectroscopic properties. The elements of the shielding tensors as a function of the donor atoms, N, O, and S, and the coordination number have been determined, and empirical correlations to structure deduced." ...
