The overall rate constants of the reactions of NO with hydroxy- and chloroalkylperoxy radicals, derived from the OH- and Cl-initiated oxidation of methacrolein and methyl vinyl ketone, respectively, were directly determined for the first time using the turbulent-flow technique and pseudo-first-order kinetics conditions with high-pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry for the direct detection of peroxy radical reactants. The individual 100 Torr, 298 K hydroxyalkylperoxy + NO rate constants for the methacrolein [(0.93 +/- 0.12) (2sigma) x 10(-11) cm3 molecule(-1) s(-1)] and methyl vinyl ketone [(0.84 +/- 0.10) x 10(-11) cm3 molecule(-1) s(-1)] systems were found to be identical within the 95% confidence interval associated with each separate measurement, as were the chloroalkylperoxy + NO rate constants for both methacrolein [(1.17 +/- 0.11) x 10(-11) cm3 molecule(-1) s(-1)] and methyl vinyl ketone [(1.14 +/- 0.14) x 10(-11) cm3 molecule(-1) s(-1)]. However, the difference in the rate constants between the hydroxyperoxy + NO and chloroalkylperoxy + NO systems was found to be statistically significant, with the chloroalkylperoxy + NO rate constants about 30% higher than the corresponding hydroxyalkylperoxy + NO rate constants. This substituent effect was rationalized via a frontier molecular orbital model approach.

Hot-exciton materials, among all kinds of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) emitters, have better exciton utilization efficiency and efficiency roll-off, making them possible for their practical applications. We studied the photophysical properties of a few hot-exciton molecules based on an anthracene core unit to efficiently harvest all triplet excitons to the lowest excited singlet state. The conversion of triplet exciton to singlet exciton utilizing hRISC can be enhanced due to the 1ππ*←3nπ* transition channel.

This paper presents a grid-based approach to model molecular association processes as an alternative to sampling-based Markov models. Our method discretizes the six-dimensional space of relative translation and orientation into grid cells. By discretizing the Fokker-Planck operator governing the system dynamics via the square-root approximation, we derive analytical expressions for the transition rate constants between grid cells.

The objective of this study was to implement population pharmacokinetic (PPK) of enrofloxacin (EF) in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) after a single oral administration and a single intravenous administration based on a nonlinear mixed effect model. The plasma samples collected by the sparse sampling method were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography with a fluorescent detector. The initial pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were evaluated by reference search and the calculation of a naïve pooled method.

Treatment-resistant hypertension (TRH) is defined by consistently elevated blood pressure readings unresponsive to medical management. In clinical practice, it poses a significant challenge due to the intertwining variables that may cause the issue to persist such as lifestyle, genetics, and other comorbidities, as opposed to simple medication non-adherence. This report describes the case of a 68-year-old female patient presenting for a routine follow-up with persistently elevated ambulatory blood pressure readings.

The utilization of polyoxometalate-based materials is largely dictated by their redox properties. Detailed understanding of the thermodynamic and kinetic efficiency of charge transfer is therefore essential to the development of polyoxometalate-based systems for target applications. Toward this end, we report electrochemical studies of a series of heteroatom-doped Keggin-type polyoxotungstate clusters [PWO] ( ), [VWO] ( ), [P(VW)O] ( ), and [V(VW)O] ( ) to elucidate the role of the identity and spatial location of heteroatoms and overall cluster charge on the rate constants of electron transfer and redox reaction entropies.
