Advancing Coordination Chemistry with Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction
Modern coordination chemistry can control various material properties—such as structure, reactivity, color, magnetism, catalytic function and many more—through metal complexes. The understanding of how the metals interact with surrounding molecules or ions often is in the focus of the research. To analyze aspects like the metal coordination number, geometry, ligand binding modes, and metal–ligand bond lengths and angles Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction (SC-XRD) is invaluable, as it provides a clear three-dimensional model of the complex, unlike many other techniques.
Join our webinar to learn how your research can benefit from Bruker’s latest innovations in SC-XRD. Along a number of examples, we will demonstrate the benefits of advanced X-ray diffraction technology. We will show how modern instrumentation helps to address challenges typical in coordination chemistry and to deliver the precision needed for accurate 3D structure determination in modern crystallography.
