The barrier to rotation and hydrogen bonding interactions of 2,2-dicyano-1-(N,N'-dimethylamino)vinylbenzene (1) were studied in a range of solvents. The barrier to rotation of 1 in chloroform was 14.8 kcal/mol and increased by 1.7 kcal/mol in a protic solvent, trifluoroethanol. FTIR studies showed a shift in the cyano stretch of 1 to a higher wavenumber in trifluoroethanol, which is consistent with 1 participating in a hydrogen bonding interaction at the vinyl carbon (C(v)) of the enaminonitrile group.

Background: Public policy focuses on increasing the prevalence of home dialysis. Home hemodialysis (HHD) education and comfort with the procedure are significant barriers to increasing prevalence. This study examines nephrology fellowship didactic curriculum, training program infrastructure and barriers identified by both program directors and trainees.

The mechanical coupling between molecules represents a promising route for the development of molecular machines. Constructing molecular gears requires easily rotatable and mutually interlocked pinions. Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), it is demonstrated that aluminum phthalocyanine (AlPc) molecules on Pb(100) exhibit these properties.

Successful implementation, however, hinges on buy-in from local clinicians. We therefore assessed clinician support for a potential TFP in Uganda, considering perceived need, curricular recommendations, barriers, and motivating factors.

In liquid crystal (LC) cells, the surface patterning directs the self-assembly of the uniaxial building blocks in the bulk, enabling the design of stimuli-response optical devices with various functionalities. The combination of different anchoring patterns at both substrates can lead to surface induced frustration, preventing a purely planar and defect-free configuration. In cells with crossed assembly of rotating anchoring patterns, elastic deformations allow to obtain a defect-free bulk configuration, but an electrical stimulus can induce disclination lines.
