高分子金属錯体の構造とその触媒作用

抄録

The significance of metal ions biological systems is currently obvious. During the past two decades, considerable progress in understanding the role of metals in the biological processes has rasulted from the studies of polymer-metal complexes on the ground of their structural analyses and catalytic behaviors. However, the author denies the idea that only a macromolecular complex can have metalloenzyme like properties it is an open question whether or not a macromolecule is required. It is the purpose of this review to answer the question. The author shall review the related studies historically in several branches, and emphasize the importance of thermodynamic properties in the polymer-metal complexes.
