Viele substituierte Pyrrolidine zeigen eine hohe Affinität zu biologischen Makromolekülen wie zu G-Protein-gekoppelten Rezeptoren, Ionenkanälen oder Enzymen. Eine synthetische Route zur Darstellung von Pyrrolidinen mit der Möglichkeit, alle fünf Ringatome variabel zu substituieren, ist daher von Interesse für die pharmazeutische Forschung. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden zwei neue Synthesestrategien zur Darstellung hochsubstituierter Pyrrolidine vorgestellt: Die 1,4-Addition von -Aminonitrilen an ,-ungesättigte Carbonylverbindungen liefert cyclische Zwischenprodukte, die in einer Eintopfreaktion zu Pyrrolidinen reduziert werden können. Die Cyanogruppe wird dabei im Reduktionsschritt aus dem Molekül entfernt, so dass keine unerwünschten Funktionalitäten im Zielmolekül zurückbleiben. In analoger Weise reagieren -(Alkylidenamino)-nitrile mit ,-ungesättigten Carbonylverbindungen. Nach Reduktion der Intermediate können polysubstituierte Pyrrolidine erhalten werden. Im Gegensatz zu -Aminonitrilen lassen sich -(Alkylidenamino)-nitrile allerdings auch mit CH-aciden ,-ungesättigten Carbonylverbindungen umsetzten, und erlauben so die Darstellung von substituierten Pyrrolidinen, die mit der zuerst genannten Methode nicht zugänglich sind. Die Übertragung beider Synthesestrategien auf die Darstellung von polycyclischen Pyrrolidinen wie dem Alkaloid Crispin A wird ebenfalls in dieser Arbeit beschrieben.

Quantitative branch determination in polyolefins by solid- and melt-state 13C NMR has been investigated. Both methods were optimised toward sensitivity per unit time. While solid-state NMR was shown to give quick albeit only qualitative results, melt-state NMR allowed highly time efficient accurate branch quantification. Comparison of spectra obtained using spectrometers operating at 300, 500 and 700 MHz 1H Larmor frequency, with 4 and 7~mm MAS probeheads, showed that the best sensitivity was achieved at 500 MHz using a 7 mm 13C-1H optimised high temperature probehead. For materials available in large quantities, static melt-state NMR, using large diameter detection coils and high coil filling at 300 MHz, was shown to produce comparable results to melt-state MAS measurements in less time. While the use of J-coupling mediated polarisation transfer techniques was shown to be possible, direct polarisation via single-pulse excitation proved to be more suitable for branch quantification in the melt-state. Artificial line broadening, introduced by FID truncation, was able to be reduced by the use of π pulse-train heteronuclear dipolar decoupling. This decoupling method, when combined with an extended duty-cycle, allowed for significant improvement in resolution. Standard setup, processing and analysis techniques were developed to minimise systematic errors contributing to the measured branch contents. The final optimised melt-state MAS NMR method was shown to allow time efficient quantification of comonomer content and distribution in both polyethylene- and polypropylene-co-α-olefins. The sensitivity of the technique was demonstrated by quantifying branch concentrations of 8 branches per 100,000 CH2 for an industrial ‘linear’ polyethylene in only 13 hours. Even lower degrees of 3–8 long-chain branches per 100,000 carbons were able to be estimated in just 24 hours for a series of γ-irradiated polypropylene homopolymers.

Mining and processing of metal ores are important causes of soil and groundwater contamination in many regions worldwide. Metal contaminations are a serious risk for the environment and human health. The assessment of metal contaminations in the soil is therefore an important task. A common approach to assess the environmental risk emanating from inorganic contaminations to soil and groundwater is the use of batch or column leaching tests. In this regard, the suitability of leaching tests is a controversial issue. In the first part of this work the applicability and comparability of common leaching tests in the scope of groundwater risk assessment of inorganic contamination is reviewed and critically discussed. Soil water sampling methods (the suction cup method and centrifugation) are addressed as an alternative to leaching tests. Reasons for limitations of the comparability of leaching test results are exposed and recommendations are given for the expedient application of leaching tests for groundwater risk assessment. Leaching tests are usually carried out in open contact with the atmosphere disregarding possible changes of redox conditions. This can affect the original metal speciation and distribution, particularly when anoxic samples are investigated. The influence of sample storage on leaching test results of sulfide bearing anoxic material from a former flotation dump is investigated in a long-term study. Since the oxidation of the sulfide-bearing samples leads to a significant overestimation of metal release, a feasible modification for the conduction of common leaching tests for anoxic material is proposed, where oxidation is prevented efficiently. A comparison of leaching test results to soil water analyzes have shown that the modified saturation soil extraction (SSE) is found to be the only of the tested leaching procedures, which can be recommended for the assessment of current soil water concentrations at anoxic sites if direct investigation of the soil water is impossible due to technical reasons. The vertical distribution and speciation of Zn and Pb in the flotation residues as well as metal concentrations in soil water and plants were investigated to evaluate the environmental risk arising from this site due to the release of metals. The variations in pH and inorganic C content show an acidification of the topsoil with pH values down to 5.5 in the soil and a soil water pH of 6 in 1 m depth. This is due to the oxidation of sulfides and depletion in carbonates. In the anoxic subsoil pH conditions are still neutral and soil water collected with suction cups is in equilibrium with carbonate minerals. Results from extended x-ray absorption fine-structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy confirm that Zn is mainly bound in sphalerite in the subsoil and weathering reactions lead to a redistribution of Zn in the topsoil. A loss of 35% Zn and S from the topsoil compared to the parent material with 10 g/kg Zn has been observed. 13% of total Zn in the topsoil can be regarded as mobile or easily mobilizable according to sequential chemical extractions (SCE). Zn concentrations of 10 mg/L were found in the soil water, where pH is acidic. Electron supply and the buffer capacity of the soil were identified as main factors controlling Zn mobility and release to the groundwater. Variable Pb concentrations up to 30 µg/L were observed in the soil water. In contrast to Zn, Pb is enriched in the mobile fraction of the oxidized topsoil by a factor of 2 compared to the subsoil with 2 g/kg Pb. 80% of the cation exchange capacity in the topsoil is occupied by Pb. Therefore, plant uptake and bioavailability are of major concern. If the site is not prevented from proceeding acidification in the future, a significant release of Zn, S, and Pb to the groundwater has to be expected. Results from this study show that the assessment of metal release especially from sulfide bearing anoxic material requires an extensive comprehension of leaching mechanisms on the one hand and on weathering processes, which influence the speciation and the mobility of metals, on the other hand. Processes, which may change redox and pH conditions in the future, have to be addressed to enable sound decisions for soil and groundwater protection and remediation.

Calix[4]arenes with urea functions attached to the p-positions of the phenolic units usually form dimers in apolar solvents. Tetraureas functionalized by pyridyl and carboxyl groups form dimers only with bis- or tetraloop tetraureas. This heterodimerization was used for the synthesis of a bis-[3]catenane. Tetraureas functionalized with sulfide functions were synthesized for the preparation of monolayers from the dimeric capsules containing electrochemically active guests on gold. Bis-tetraureacalix[4]arenes singly-linked via their wide rim by rigid spacers were synthesized and their self-assembly to polymers in apolar solvents was proved by the 1H NMR spectroscopy and AFM studies. Dimerization of the first example of the tetraurea calix[4]arenes bridged in 1,3-positions at the narrow rim was proved by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Calix[8]arenes functionalized by urea, amido or naphthalimido groups at their p-positions self-assemble to columnar structures by hydrogen bonding or by π-π-stacking.

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird die Faktorisierungsmethode zur Erkennung von Gebieten mit sprunghaft abweichenden Materialparametern untersucht. Durch eine abstrakte Formulierung beweisen wir die der Methode zugrunde liegende Bildraumidentität für allgemeine reelle elliptische Probleme und deduzieren bereits bekannte und neue Anwendungen der Methode. Für das spezielle Problem, magnetische oder perfekt elektrisch leitende Objekte durch niederfrequente elektromagnetische Strahlung zu lokalisieren, zeigen wir die eindeutige Lösbarkeit des direkten Problems für hinreichend kleine Frequenzen und die Konvergenz der Lösungen gegen die der elliptischen Gleichungen der Magnetostatik. Durch Anwendung unseres allgemeinen Resultats erhalten wir die eindeutige Rekonstruierbarkeit der gesuchten Objekte aus elektromagnetischen Messungen und einen numerischen Algorithmus zur Lokalisierung der Objekte. An einem Musterproblem untersuchen wir, wie durch parabolische Differentialgleichungen beschriebene Einschlüsse in einem durch elliptische Differentialgleichungen beschriebenen Gebiet rekonstruiert werden können. Dabei beweisen wir die eindeutige Lösbarkeit des zugrunde liegenden parabolisch-elliptischen direkten Problems und erhalten durch eine Erweiterung der Faktorisierungsmethode die eindeutige Rekonstruierbarkeit der Einschlüsse sowie einen numerischen Algorithmus zur praktischen Umsetzung der Methode.

Nature leads, we follow. But nanotechnologists are in hot pursuit, in designing controllable structures that can mimic naturally occurring and artificially synthesized materials on a common platform. The supramolecular chemistry concerns the investigation of nature principles to produce fascinating complexed and functional molecular assemblies, as well as the utilization of these principles to generate novel devices and materials, potentially useful for sensing, catalysis, transport and other applications in medical or engineering science. The work presented in this thesis is a compilation of different synthetic methods to achieve inorganic-organic hybrid nanomaterials. Silicatein, a protein enzyme, which acts both as a catalyst and template for the formation of silica needles in marine sponges, has been used for the biosynthesis of semiconductor metal oxides on surfaces. Silicatein was immobilized on gold (111) surfaces using alkane thiol, as well as on a novel self-assembly of NTA on top of a “cushion” of reactive ester polymer has been successfully employed to make functionalised surfaces. The immobilization of silicatein on surfaces was monitored by surface plasmon spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Surface bound silicatein retains its biocatalytic activity, which was demonstrated by monitoring its hydrocatalytic activity to catalyse the synthesis of biosilica, biotitania, and biozirconia. The synthesis of semiconductor metal oxides was characterized using scanning electron microscopy. This hydrolytic biocatalyst is used to synthesize the gold nanoparticles. The gold nanoparticles are formed by reduction of tetrachloroaurate, AuCl4-, by the action of sulfhydryl groups hidden below the surface groups of the protein. The resulting gold nanoparticles which are stabilized by surface bound silicatein further aggregate to form Au nanocrystals. The shape of the nanocrystals obtained by using recombinant silicatein is controlled through chiral induction by the protein during the nucleation of the nanocrystals. As an extension of this work, TiO2 nanowires were functionalized using polymeric ligand which incorporates the nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) linker in the back bone to immobilize His-tagged silicatein onto the TiO2 nanowires. The surface bound protein not only retains its original hydrolytic properties, but also acts as a reductant for AuCl4- in the synthesis of hybrid TiO2/silicatein/Au nanocomposites. Functionalized, monocrystalline rutile TiO2 nanorods were prepared from TiCl4 in aqueous solution in the presence of dopamine. The surface bound organic ligand controls the morphology as well as the crystallinity and the phase selection of TiO2. The surface amine groups can be tailored further with functional molecules such as dyes. As an example, this surface functionality is used for the covalent binding of a fluorescent dye,4-chloro-7- nitrobenzylurazene (NBD) to the TiO2 nanorods. The polymeric ligands have been used successfully for the in-situ and post-functionalization of TiO2 nanoparticles. Besides to chelating dopamine anchor group the multifunctional ligand system presented here incorporates a modifier molecule which allows the binding of functional molecules (here the dyes pyrene, NBD, and Texas Red) as well as additional entities which allow tailoring the solubility of inorganic nanocrystals in different solvents. A novel method for the surface functionalization of fullerene-type MoS2 nanoparticles and subsequently binding these nanoparticles onto TiO2 nanowires has been reported using polymeric ligands. The procedure involves the complexation of IF-MoS2 with a combination of Ni2+ via an umbrella-type nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) and anchoring them to the sidewalls of TiO2 nanowires utilizing the hydroxyl groups of dopamine present in the main contents of polymeric ligand. A convenient method for the synthesis of Au/CdS nanocomposites has been presented, which were achieved through the novel method of thiol functionalization of gold colloids. The thermodynamically most stable phase of ZrO2 (cubic) has been obtained at much lower temperature (180°C). These nanoparticles are highly blue fluorescent, with a high surface area.

Monte Carlo simulations are used to study the effect of confinement on a crystal of point particles interacting with an inverse power law potential in d=2 dimensions. This system can describe colloidal particles at the air-water interface, a model system for experimental study of two-dimensional melting. It is shown that the state of the system (a strip of width D) depends very sensitively on the precise boundary conditions at the two ``walls'' providing the confinement. If one uses a corrugated boundary commensurate with the order of the bulk triangular crystalline structure, both orientational order and positional order is enhanced, and such surface-induced order persists near the boundaries also at temperatures where the system in the bulk is in its fluid state. However, using smooth repulsive boundaries as walls providing the confinement, only the orientational order is enhanced, but positional (quasi-) long range order is destroyed: The mean-square displacement of two particles n lattice parameters apart in the y-direction along the walls then crosses over from the logarithmic increase (characteristic for $d=2$) to a linear increase (characteristic for d=1). The strip then exhibits a vanishing shear modulus. These results are interpreted in terms of a phenomenological harmonic theory. Also the effect of incommensurability of the strip width D with the triangular lattice structure is discussed, and a comparison with surface effects on phase transitions in simple Ising- and XY-models is made

Perylencarbonsäureimide sind Farbmittel mit ausgezeichneter chemischer und photochemischer Stabilität, hohen molaren Extinktionskoeffizienten und hohen Fluoreszenzquantenausbeuten, weswegen ihre Anwendung über die reine Farbgebung hinausgeht und von der Grundlagenforschung bis hin zum funktionellen High-Tech-Material reicht. Ziel der vorliegenden Dissertation mit dem Titel „Farbe und Funktion neuer Molekülarchitekturen auf Rylencarbonsäureimid-Basis“ war die Synthese und Charakterisierung von neuen chromophoren Systemen ausgehend von bekannten Perylenfarbmitteln. Im ersten Teil der Arbeit wird die Synthese eines Konstruktes beschrieben, das es ermöglicht, die Rotation eines Perylenfarbstoffs einzelmolekülspektroskopisch zu visualisieren. Mit der Methode der defokussierten Einzelmolekülspektroskopie kann die Immobilisierung des molekularen Rotors nachgewiesen und die Umorientierung des Farbstoffs detektiert werden. In den folgenden Kapiteln steht die gezielte Variation bekannter chromophorer Systeme im Vordergrund. Die Veränderung der Größe, der Topologie und der Substitution des aromatischen π-Systems hat erheblichen Einfluss auf die optischen Eigenschaften sowie auf die Eignung der Moleküle als funktionelle Farbmittel, beispielsweise in optoelektronischen Bauteilen. Anhand der Eigenschaften der dargestellten Derivate können systematische Zusammenhänge zwischen Struktur, Farbe und Funktion abgeleitet werden.

Religiöse Güter hatten schon immer etwas Besonderes. Amulette und Souvenirs, die an heiligen Stätten verkauft werden, oder Bücher und Audiokassetten mit religiösem Inhalt, wie sie überall erhältlich sind, strahlen einen Segen aus, der sie von profanen Gütern unterscheidet. Im heutigen Ägypten sind sie indes nicht unumstritten, was eng mit der sich wandelnden Grenzziehung zwischen Profanem und Religiösem zusammenhängt. Diente der spirituelle Bezug früher zur Legitimation und versah selbst alltägliche Güter wie Kichererbsen mit einer Aura der Heiligkeit, hat sich seit dem 20. Jahrhundert eine Sicht verbreitet, die diesen Zusammenhang problematisiert. Sie versteht Religion als ein ordnendes Prinzip, das den Alltag durchdringt. Gleichzeitig muss, folgt man dieser Sicht, die Religion in ihrem Kern gegen jedwede Profanität geschützt werden. Tatsächlich aber wird Religion dadurch immer mehr konsumiert. Dies führt zu einer schwer lösbaren Spannung zwischen dem Anspruch auf allumfassende religiöse Disziplin und einem Alltag, der trotz der allgegenwärtigen Religion seinen ambivalenten, widersprüchlichen Charakter behält.

Diese Arbeit ist der Versuch einer Bestandsaufnahme der Diskussion um die Rolle des Fachs Eth¬nologie in den allgemeinbildenden Schulen. Eine solche Übersicht zu den im deutschsprachigen Raum veröffentlichten Beiträgen lag bis dahin noch nicht vor. Sie reicht zurück bis zum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts. Im vorliegenden Papier wurden die grundlegenden Argumentationen dargelegt, mit denen Fachvertreter und -vertreterinnen ein völkerkundliches/ethnologisches Engagement in den Schulen, in Schulbüchern und bei der Lehrerausbildung forderten. Mit einem historisch vertieften Vergleich dieser Argumentationen wurde angestrebt, Kontinuitäten und Brüche in der Diskussion darzustellen. Diese Perspektive ermöglichte zum einen die Darstel¬lung von älteren und kaum mehr rezipierten Beiträgen in einem größeren Rahmen, zum anderen jedoch auch eine Kritik der vorliegenden, oft nur vordergründig verschiedenen Ansätze. Im Schlusskapitel stellte der Autor essentialistische/relativistische und universalistische Ansätze gegenüber und formulierte darauf basierend Ausgangspunkte eines weiteren schulischen Engagements im Rahmen einer vergleichenden Sozialwissenschaft Ethnologie. Im Anhang der Arbeit befindet sich eine chronologische Biblioghraphie all jener Beiträge, die Ethnologen und Ethnologinnen zur Integration ihres Fachs in die Schulen verfassten.
