Two-dimensional (2D) materials hold great promise for the next-generation optoelectronics applications, many of which, including solar cell, rely on the efficient dissociation of exciton into free charge carriers. However, photoexcitation in atomically thin 2D semiconductors typically produces exciton with a binding energy of ~500 meV, an order of magnitude larger than thermal energy at room temperature. This inefficient exciton dissociation can limit the efficiency of photovoltaics.

To discover novel inhibitors of pyruvate kinase (PK) as fungicidal candidates, a series of 2-thiazol-2-yl-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were designed by a prediction model with PK (RsPK) as a protein target and as a ligand. Fungicidal screening indicated that , , , , , , , and exhibited equal or higher activity compared to against , , or . To our surprise, showed comparable activity to flutriafol with an EC of 0.

Activation of rac-MeSi(η-Ind)ZrMe (SBIZrMe) and sheet models for MAO, (MeAlO)(MeAl) (6,4), (MeAlO)(MeAl) (7,5), and (MeAlO)(MeAl) (26,9) was studied DFT. These activators can reversibly form an outer-sphere ion-pair (OSIP) [SBIZrMeAlMe] [(MeAlO)(MeAl)Me] 3 ([,] = [7,4]and [26,8]) or a contact ion-pair (CIP) SBIZrMe-μ-Me-6,4 (2b) from SBIZrMe. Dissociation of MeAl from 3 to form CIP SBIZrMe-μ-Me-, (2) is generally unfavourable but reversible in toluene continuum.

In this study, a detailed DFT investigation was conducted to systematically analyze the scavenging activity of six hydrazone compounds (1-6) against HOO˙ and CHOO˙ radicals. Three mechanistic pathways were explored: hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), single electron transfer followed by proton transfer (SETPT), and sequential proton loss electron transfer (SPLET). These mechanisms were evaluated based on thermodynamic parameters, including bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE), ionization potential (IP), proton dissociation enthalpy (PDE), proton affinity (PA), and electron transfer enthalpy (ETE) in the gas phase, water, and pentyl ethanoate.

Hydrophobicity is associated with drug transport across membranes and is expressed as the partition coefficient log P for neutral drugs and the distribution coefficient log D for acidic and basic drugs. The log P and log D predictions are deductively (or with artificial intelligence) estimated as the sum of the partial contributions of the scaffold and substituents of a single molecule and are used widely and affirmatively. However, their predictions have not always been comprehensively accurate beyond scaffold differences.
