New collaboration with the Suzuki lab

We have agreed on a new collaboration with the Suzuki lab at Aichi Steel Corporation to work together on the development of a mugineic family phytosiderophore analogue as an iron fertilizer. To this end we will in our labs experimentally and computationally characterise the interaction of a proline-2′-deoxymugineic acid with transition row metals. We will use voltammetric and potentiomteric techniques to determine the association constants and speciation in aqueous solutions and we will use NMR, single crystal X-ray, and MS to characterise the structure.
