The experimental and theoretical investigations of structure of the 3-(1-(phenylamino)ethylidene)-chroman-2,4-dione were performed. X-ray structure analysis and spectroscopic methods (FTIR and FT-Raman, H and C NMR), along with the density functional theory calculations (B3LYP functional with empirical dispersion corrections D3BJ in combination with the 6-311 + G(d,p) basis set), were used in order to characterize the molecular structure and spectroscopic behavior of the investigated coumarin derivative. Molecular docking analysis was carried out to identify the potency of inhibition of the title molecule against human's Ubiquinol-Cytochrome C Reductase Binding Protein (UQCRB) and Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR). The inhibition activity was obtained for ten conformations of ligand inside the proteins.

We discussed and summarized the latest data from the global literature on the action of polyphenolic antioxidants and their metal complexes. The review also includes a summary of the outcomes of theoretical computations and our many years of experimental experience. We employed various methods, including spectroscopy (FT-IR, FT-Raman, NMR, UV/Vis), X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, quantum calculations, and biological assays (DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, cytotoxicity, and genotoxicity tests).

Two soluble conjugated ladder polymers (cLPs), decorated with multiple electron-poor species (, cyano groups, fused pentagons, and N-heterocyclic rings), have been synthesized from the newly developed tetraketo-functionalized double aza[5]helicene building blocks using a single-step Knoevenagel polycondensation strategy. This facile approach features mild conditions (, room temperature) and high efficiency, allowing us to quickly access a nonalternant ladder-like conjugated system with the formation of multicyano substituents in the backbone. Analysis by H NMR, FT-Raman, and FT-IR spectra confirms the successful synthesis of the resulting cLPs.

The objective of this investigation is to learn more about the structural, electrical, spectroscopic, and physiochemical characteristics of biologically active cyano-4'-hydroxybiphenyl (CHBP). The title molecule's optimized conformational analysis was computed using the DFT/B3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) level of theory. The observed wavenumbers were compared with theoretical FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra.

Over the past two decades, following the discovery of the important biological roles of carbon monoxide (CO), metal carbonyl complexes have been intensively studied as CO-releasing molecules (CORMs) for therapeutic applications. To improve the properties of "bare" low molecular weight CORMs, attention has been drawn to conjugating CORMs with macromolecular and inorganic scaffolds to produce CO-releasing materials (CORMAs) capable of storing and delivering large payloads of the gasotransmitter. A significant obstacle is to obtain CORMAs that retain the beneficial features of the parent CORMs.
