Zinc perfluoro-fluoroalkyl-phthalocyanine, synthesized in high yield, does not exhibit electron loss, does not aggregate in solution, is photostable and produces (1)O(2) in very high quantum yields. Aerobic photo-oxygenation of an external substrate occurs without catalyst self-oxidation. The encapsulation of a metal center in a refractory organic environment could guide the design of other viable catalysts for oxygenation of substrates either for synthesis or for oxidative destruction of organic or biological molecules, under reaction conditions that include the use of only air and light.

Rationalizing Predictions of Isoform-Selective Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase Inhibitors Using MolAnchor Analysis.

Explaining the predictions of machine learning models is of critical importance for integrating predictive modeling in drug discovery projects. We have generated a test system for predicting isoform selectivity of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors and systematically analyzed correct predictions of selective inhibitors using a new methodology termed MolAnchor, which is based on the "anchors" concept from explainable artificial intelligence. The approach is designed to generate chemically intuitive explanations of compound predictions.

The carbon dioxide (CO) capture and utilization strategy has emerged as an innovative and multifaceted approach to counteract carbon emissions. In this study, a highly porous muffin polyhedral barium (Ba) ̵ organic framework (BaTATB; HTATB = 4,4',4″--triazine-2,4,6-triyl-tribenzoic acid) was synthesized solvothermally. The three-dimensional honeycomb pore architectures were densely populated with Lewis acidic Ba(II) metal sites and basic nitrogen-rich triazines.

Carbon dioxide capture is a vital approach for mitigating air pollution and global warming. In this context, metal-organic frameworks are promising candidates. Particularly, MIL-88A (M), where the metal nodes (M) are connected to fumarate linkers in its structure, has demonstrated significant potential for CO capture.

Ultrahigh-voltage potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) with cost competitiveness represent a viable route towards high energy battery systems. Nevertheless, rapid capacity decay with poor Coulombic efficiencies remains intractable, mainly attributed to interfacial instability from aggressive potassium metal anodes and cathodes. Additionally, high reactivity of K metal and flammable electrolytes pose severe safety hazards.
