Collaborative projects. 4. With Prof. A. Blaschette (this University)
We have produced a long series of structural papers on the subject of "Polysulfonylamines"; the successful collaboration is still continuing, although Prof. Blaschette officially retired some years ago. Recent Erasmus visitors from the University of Zaragoza have contributed significantly to recent progress. Here is one recent publication (see also others in the series, many of which are mentioned in other categories above):
"Kristallstrukturen von Metall-di(methansulfonyl)amiden. 14. Cs3Ag[(MeSO2)2N]4 and CsAg[(MeSO2)2N]2: Ein dreidimensionales und ein schichtförmiges Koordinationspolymer mit Bis(dimesylamido-N)argentat-Baugruppen". V. Latorre, P. G. Jones, O. Moers and A. Blaschette, Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 629, 1943 (2003).

Prof. Matt entrusts to us some structure determinations with particularly difficult features:

Collaborative projects. 6. With Prof. M. Mazik (Inst. of Organic Chemistry, this University)
Prof. Mazik studies complexes between sugars and artificial receptors. Because the structures are necessarily non-centrosymmetric, it is essential to record good data in order to locate the hydrogen atoms involved in the recognition processes:
"Molecular recognition of carbohydrates with artificial receptors: mimicking the binding motifs found in the cyrystal structures of protein-carbohydrate complexes". M. Mazik,* H. Cavga & P. G. Jones, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127, 9045 (2005).
