Optimised geometrical structural parameters, harmonic vibrational frequencies, natural bonding orbital analysis and frontier molecular orbitals are determined by B3LYP and B3PW91 methods. The exact geometry of 5-chloro-1-methyl-4-nitroimidazole is determined through conformational analysis. The experimentally observed infrared and Raman bands have been assigned and analysed. The (13)C and (1)H NMR chemical shifts of the compound are investigated. The total electron density and molecular electrostatic potentials are determined. The electrostatic potential (electron+nuclei) distribution, molecular shape, size and dipole moments of the molecule have been displayed. The energies of the frontier molecular orbitals and LUMO-HOMO energy gap are measured. The possible electronic transitions of the molecule are studied by TD-DFT method along with the UV-Visible spectrum. The structure-activity relationship of the compound is also investigated by conceptual DFT methods.

Lingo1 in the hippocampus contributes to cognitive dysfunction after anesthesia and surgery in aged mice.

Cognitive impairment caused by anesthesia and surgery is one of the most common complications with multiple etiologies that occurs in elderly patients. The underlying mechanisms are not fully understood, and there is a lack of therapeutic strategies. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that myelin loss, abnormal phosphorylation of the tau protein and neuronal apoptosis are substantial driving factors of cognitive deficits.

The packing of organic molecular crystals is often dominated by weak non-covalent interactions, making their rearrangement under external stimuli challenging to understand. We investigate a pressure-induced single-crystal-to-single-crystal (SCSC) transformation between two polymorphs of 2,4,5-triiodo-1-imidazole using machine learning potentials. This process involves the rearrangement of halogen and hydrogen bonds combined with proton transfer within a complex solid-state system.

The detection of intracellular biothiols (cysteine, N-acetyl cysteine, and glutathione) with high selectivity and sensitivity is important to reveal biological functions. In this study, a 2-(2-methoxy-4-methylphenoxy)-3-chloro-5,8-dihydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione (DDN-O) compound was newly synthesized and used as a fluorogenic probe (detector molecule) in the fluorometric method for the rapid, highly selective, and sensitive determination of biothiols. The intensity values (λ = 260 nm, λ = 620 nm) of the product were measured by adding biothiols to the reaction medium at varying concentrations and the glutathione equivalent thiol content values of each biothiol were calculated.

Anchorable Polymers Enabling Ultra-Thin and Robust Hole-Transporting Layers for High-Efficiency Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells.

Currently, the development of polymeric hole-transporting materials (HTMs) lags behind that of small-molecule HTMs in inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs). A critical challenge is that conventional polymeric HTMs are incapable of forming ultra-thin and conformal coatings like self-assembly monolayers (SAMs), especially for substrates with rough surface morphology. Herein, we address this challenge by designing anchorable polymeric HTMs (CP1 to CP5).

At present, the problem of drug addiction treatment mainly lies in the high relapse rate of drug addicts. Addictive drugs will bring users a strong sense of euphoria and promote drug seeking. Once the drug is withdrawn, there will be withdrawal symptoms such as strong negative emotions and uncomfortable physical reactions.
