Molecular bricks

Electroactive Paramagnetic Complexes as Molecular Bricks for tt-d Conducting Magnets... 

Following Miller s experiment, many chemists successfully synthesized other compounds of biochemical relevance under prebiotic conditions - thereby demonstrating convincingly that several molecular bricks of life might have been present on prebiotic Earth.

In a systematic study, the engineering of a series of honeycomb networks assembled from a series of the ditopic dicarbonitrile molecular bricks and Co atoms on Ag(lll) was reported [124]. This approach enabled fabrica-...
