Reaction Monitoring and Structural Characterisation of Coordination Driven Self-Assembled Systems by Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry

UNSW Sydney School of Chemistry

Can you envisage a world where building a new catalyst or an artificial enzyme is like following an architectural plan for building a house?
