A comparison of deuterated and non-deuterated erythrite has been made using a combination of infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Infrared spectrum shows bands at 3442, 3358, 3194 and 3039 cm(-1). The band at 3442 cm(-1) is attributed to weakly hydrogen bonded water and the band at 3039 cm(-1) to strongly hydrogen bonded water. Deuteration results in the observation of OD bands at 2563, 2407 and 2279 cm(-1). The ratio of these bands change with deuteration. Deuteration shows that the strongly hydrogen bonded water is replaced in preference to the weakly hydrogen bonded water. Three HOH bending modes are observed at 1686, 1633, 1572 and DOD bending modes at 1236, 1203 and 1176 cm(-1). Deuteration causes the loss of intensity of the bands at 841, 710 and 561 cm(-1) and new bands are observed at 692, 648 and 617 cm(-1). These three bands are attributed to the water librational modes. Deuteration results in an additional Raman band at 809 cm(-1) with increasing intensity with extent of deuteration. Deuteration results in the shift of Raman bands to lower wavenumbers.

ConspectusIons are the crucial signaling components for living organisms. In cells, their transportation across pore-forming membrane proteins is vital for regulating physiological functions, such as generating ionic current signals in response to target molecule recognition. This ion transport is affected by confined interactions and local environments within the protein pore.

Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) has offered a great treasure and source of inspiration for developing innovative medicinal materials and therapy. In this work, inspired by the macroscopic compatibility of and in CHM, the puerarin (PUE) and CaSO (Ca) as the main constituents, respectively, from the two herbs are co-assembled into two-component molecular hydrogels. Such two-component gels exhibited enhanced mechanical properties compared with the single-component PUE gel due to the introduction of crosslinking hydrogen bonds between PUE and Ca.

ConspectusSymmetry is a pervasive phenomenon spanning diverse fields, from art and architecture to mathematics and science. In the scientific realms, symmetry reveals fundamental laws, while symmetry breaking─the collapse of certain symmetry─is the underlying cause of phenomena. Research on symmetry and symmetry breaking consistently provides valuable insights across disciplines, from parity violation in physics to the origin of homochirality in biology.

We report spectroscopic and spectrometric experiments that probe the London dispersion interaction between -butyl substituents in three series of covalently linked, protonated -pyridines in the gas phase. Molecular ions in the three test series, along with several reference molecules for control, were electrosprayed from solution into the gas phase and then probed by infrared multiphoton dissociation spectroscopy and trapped ion mobility spectrometry. The observed N-H stretching frequencies provided an experimental readout diagnostic of the ground-state geometry of each ion, which could be furthermore compared to a second, independent structural readout via the collision cross section.

The photochemistry of nitrous acid (HONO) plays a crucial role in atmospheric chemistry as it serves as a key source of hydroxyl radicals (OH) in the atmosphere; however, our comprehension of the underlying mechanism for the photochemistry of HONO especially in the presence of water is far from being complete as the transient intermediates in the photoreactions have not been observed. Herein, we report the photochemistry of microsolvated HONO by water in a cryogenic N matrix. Specifically, the 1:1 hydrogen-bonded water complex of HONO was facially prepared in the matrix through stepwise photolytic O oxidation of the water complex of imidogen (NH-HO) via the intermediacy of the elusive water complex of peroxyl isomer HNOO.
