This review updates the recent advances and applications of three prominent synchrotron radiation techniques, microprobe X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy/imaging, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and infrared microspectroscopy, and highlights how these tools are useful to the medicinal chemist. A brief description of the principles of the techniques is given with emphasis on the advantages of using synchrotron radiation-based instrumentation rather than instruments using typical laboratory radiation sources. This review focuses on several recent applications of these techniques to solve inorganic medicinal chemistry problems, focusing on studies of cellular uptake, distribution, and biotransformation of established and potential therapeutic agents. The importance of using these synchrotron-based techniques to assist the development of, or validate the chemistry behind, drug design is discussed.

Nanometric laminar two-dimensional artificial multiferroic oxide thin films can be elaborated using spinel ferrites and perovskite ferroelectrics like CoFe2O4 and BaTiO3. Such materials can retain their individual ferromagnetic or ferroelectric properties. In the thin epitaxial film regime a cross coupling of these properties is possible thanks to strain engineering. After introducing the concepts supporting artificial multiferroic laminar structures, the growth of strained BaTiO3 thin films and the growth of subsequent Co-ferrites layers will be detailed. With respect to the relative film thickness, a detailed understanding of the elastic behavior of these films will be proposed based on the characterization using several synchrotron radiation techniques including x-ray specular and off-specular diffraction, x-ray absorption spectroscopy, as well as x-ray magnetic circular dichroism.

This article presents the progress on characterization of the interfacial interaction between sulfur oxidizing microbes and sulfide minerals by using of synchrotron radiation-based techniques including S/Fe/Cu X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy (XANES), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), micro-X-ray fluorescence (μ-XRF) mapping and micro-scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (μ-STXM) imaging, together with other accessory approaches such as SEM/EDS, Raman spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, and electrochemical methods as well as comparative proteomics methodology.

By reviewing a selection of X-ray diffraction (XRD), resonant X-ray scattering (RXS), X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), resonant and non-resonant inelastic scattering (RIXS, NIXS), and dispersive inelastic scattering (IXS) experiments, the potential of synchrotron radiation techniques in studying lattice and electronic structure, hybridization effects, multipolar order and lattice dynamics in actinide materials is demonstrated.
