AI Article Synopsis

  • In 1975, a study measured coupling constants in 2-fluorobenzamide with (15)N, linking some to hydrogen bonds involving N-H...F interactions.
  • The presence of different solvents, like CDCl(3) versus DMSO-d(6), significantly affects these couplings, indicating that solvents can alter intramolecular hydrogen bonding.
  • This theoretical paper employs density functional theory (DFT) and other analyses to explain how weak hydrogen bonds exist without solvent, while stronger solvents disrupt these interactions.

Article Abstract

In 1975 a large number of coupling constants were measured in 2-fluorobenzamide labeled with (15)N. Some of them were assigned to couplings through intramolecular N-H...F hydrogen bonds (HBs). These couplings change dramatically when CDCl(3) is replaced by DMSO-d(6). In this theoretical paper we provide density functional theory (DFT) calculations that justify the existence of a weak HB in the absence of solvent, while solvents that act as HB acceptors break down the intramolecular hydrogen bond (IMHB) of 2-fluorobenzamide. Atoms in molecules (AIM) analyses and Steiner-Limbach plots were used to analyze the structure of the compounds.

The rapid, sensitive, and accurate detection of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs), such as saxitoxin (STX), is critical for protecting human health due to the frequent occurrence of toxic red tides. In this work, to address the low affinity of traditional mouse monoclonal antibodies (m-mAbs), rabbit monoclonal antibodies (r-mAbs) against STX were produced by a single B-cell sorting culture and a cross-selection strategy. The r-mAbs showed 100-fold improvement in sensitivity (IC = 0.

In this study, we utilized drinking water treatment sludge (WTS) to produce adsorbents through the drying and calcination process. These adsorbents were then evaluated for their ability to remove azithromycin (AZT) from aqueous solutions. The L-500 adsorbent, derived from the calcination (at 500°C) of WTS generated under conditions of low turbidity in the drinking water treatment plant, presented an increase in the specific surface area from 70.

Background: Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is a promising biomarker for brain and spinal cord disorders. Recent studies have highlighted the differences in the reliability of GFAP measurements in different biological matrices. The reason for these discrepancies is poorly understood as our knowledge of the protein's 3-dimensional conformation, proteoforms, and aggregation remains limited.

The well-known inhibitory strength of 3d metal Schiff base complexes against urease enzymes has long been acknowledged, but their untapped potential to act as ureolytic mimics of active metallobiosites remained unexplored. To break the new ground, we present pyrrolidine-based mononuclear Ni(II)-azide complex {[NiL(HL)(N)]·1.5(HO)} using the N,N,O donor ligand, namely ()-4-bromo-2-(((2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethyl)imino)methyl)phenol.
