Flavins are of great biological relevance, but little information is known about the isolated flavins. This dissertation deals with the electronic photodissociation spectroscopy of cryogenically cooled flavins. The optical spectra are recorded with a tandem mass spectrometer coupled to a cryogenic 22 - pole ion trap and an electrospray ionization s...
Characterizing the interactions in clusters of protonated aromatic and chiral biomolecules is essential to understand their chemical reactions and molecular recognition. In this thesis, three prototypical biomolecular building blocks are investigated by sophisticated infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) laser spectroscopic methods and density functio...
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden mono- und bifunktionelle Hemithioindigo(HT)-Chromophore duch säure- und basenkatalysierte Aldolkondensationen in guten bis sehr guten Ausbeuten hergestellt. Diese Chromophore sind auf Grund ihrer Funktionalitäten zum Einbau in Biomoleküle geeignet, um deren Konformation und Funktion zu steuern. Eine literaturbekann...
