Influence of intrinsic spin ordering in LaSrCoFeO and BaSrCoFeO towards electrocatalysis of oxygen redox reaction in solid oxide cell.

The redox reaction of oxygen (OER & ORR) forms the rate determining step of important processes like cellular respiration and water splitting. Being a spin relaxed process governed by quantum spin exchange interaction, QSEI (the ground triplet state in O is associated with singlet oxygen in HO/OH), its kinetics is sluggish and requires inclusion of selective catalyst. Functionality and sustainability of solid oxide cell involving fuel cell (FC) and electrolyzer cell (EC) are also controlled by ORR (oxygen redox reaction) and OER (oxygen evolution reaction).

Supramolecular Arrangement and DFT analysis of Zinc(II) Schiff Bases: An Insight towards the Influence of Compartmental Ligands on Binding Interaction with Protein.

We report, for the first time, a detailed crystallographic study of the supramolecular arrangement for a set of zinc(II) Schiff base complexes containing the ligand 2,6-bis((E)-((2-(dimethylamino)ethyl)imino)methyl)-4-R-phenol], where R=methyl/tert-butyl/chloro. The supramolecular study acts as a pre-screening tool for selecting the compartmental ligand R of the Schiff base for effective binding with a targeted protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA). The most stable hexagonal arrangement of the complex [Zn-Me] (R=Me) stabilises the ligand with the highest FMO energy gap (ΔE=4.

Human health risk exposure with respect to particulate-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons at mine fire-affected coal mining complex.

Particulate-bound poly-aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are of great concern due to their mutagenicity and carcinogenicity effect on human health. In this context, identification, quantification and inhalation cancer risk (ICR) assessment due to PM- and PM-bound PAHs has been carried out at six monitoring stations in a critically polluted Jharia coalfield/Dhanbad City. Identification of pollution sources at study area has been performed by using PCA statistical methods.

Tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane salt of ramipril: synthesis, structural characterization from X-ray powder diffraction and stability studies.

Tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (tris) salt of API ramipril was synthesized, and characterized by FTIR, TG-DSC and ab initio X-ray powder structure analysis. The compound, ramipril-tris (II), crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1) with a=24.3341(15), b=6.

Lamivudine hemihydrate.

A new lamivudine hydrate, namely, cis-4-amino-1-(2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-oxathiolan-5-yl)pyrimidin-2(1H)-one hemihydrate, C(8)H(11)N(3)O(3)S.0.5H(2)O, has been synthesized and structurally characterized by both powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
