The title polyanion is the first hybrid borophosphate-phenylphosphonate polyoxometalate. It was structurally characterized as its imidazolium salt, (C(3)N(2)H(5))(5)[Mo(12)O(30)(BPO(4))(2)(O(3)P-Ph)(6)].H(2)O (monoclinic, P2(1)/c, a = 22.120(3) A, b = 13.042(2) A, and c = 32.632(4) A, beta = 101.293(3) degrees ), which was synthesized hydrothermally from imidazole, molybdenum oxide and metal, and boric, phosphoric, and phenylphosphonic acids. The anion is the second example of a new class of polyoxometalates that resemble Dawson anions but where the two pole caps of three edge-sharing MoO(6) octahedra in the latter are replaced by other units, in this case tetrahedral borate sharing corners with three phenylphosphonic groups, [(OB)(O(3)P-Ph)(3)]. The 12 molybdenum atoms forming the two equatorial belts of the cluster are of mixed-valence, five are Mo(V) and seven are Mo(VI), and the resulting five electrons are delocalized. Four of these electrons are paired according to the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility. The new compound is soluble in a mixture of water and pyridine (in equal volumes) as well as in nitromethane, and the anions are intact in these solutions.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurological disorder and multiple pathways are associated with its pathology. Currently available single-targeting drugs are found to be ineffective for the treatment of AD, and most of these drugs provide symptomatic relief. The multi-target directed ligand strategy is proposed as an effective approach for the treatment of AD.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is linked to various factors causing cardiovascular diseases, with uncontrolled postprandial hyperglycemia being a direct contributor. α-Glucosidase inhibitors (AGIs) aid in reducing postprandial hyperglycemia, potentially mitigating cardiovascular risks. In order to synthesize novel chemical scaffolds with possible α-glucosidase inhibition activity, a series of novel soritin sulfonamide derivatives were synthesized.

The advancement of acceptors plays a pivotal role in determining photovoltaic performance. While previous efforts have focused on optimizing acceptor-donor-acceptor-donor-acceptor (A-DA-D-A)-typed acceptors by adjusting side chains, end groups, and conjugated extension of the electron-deficient central A unit, the systematic exploration of the impact of peripheral aryl substitutions, particularly with different electron groups, on the A unit and its influence on device performance is still lacking. In this study, three novel acceptors - QxTh, QxPh, and QxPy - with distinct substitutions on the quinoxaline (Qx) are designed and synthesized.

Article Synopsis
  • Macrocyclic molecules like pillar[5]arenes exhibit unique properties such as high symmetry and the ability to trap guest molecules, which differs from linear compounds.
  • This study successfully introduced ten six-membered aromatic rings into pillar[5]arene, creating a stable cylindrical crystal structure while avoiding the complexities observed in previous variants with five-membered rings.
  • A significant increase in the dihedral angles between the core and outer benzene rings (from 38° to 66°) highlights the role of steric repulsion in shaping the structure and properties of these macrocyclic compounds.
