Efficient approaches with high precision are essential for understanding the formation and stability of noncovalent interaction complexes. Here, 21 noncovalent interaction complexes involving π-system are selected and grouped in three subsets according to ETS-NOCV method: dispersion-dominated, electrostatic-dominated, and mixed. We mainly focus on examining the performance of random-phase approximation (RPA) on these π systems. The tested RPA-based method includes standard RPA and its variants including the related single excitations (SEs), renormalized single excitations (rSEs), second-order screened exchange (SOSEX), and the renormalized second-order perturbation theory (rPT2). The routine second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) and three popular DFT-D functionals (M06-2X-D3, ωB97XD, and PBE-D3(BJ)) are also assessed for comparison. In this work, besides the calculation of interaction energies at Dunning-type aug-cc-pVDZ and aug-cc-pVTZ basis set, we also present a larger database of interaction energies calculated using MP2 and RPA methods with Dunning-type aug-cc-pVQZ basis set. An accurate CCSD(T)/CBS scheme is used to provide benchmark database. In addition to the high-level results, we also provide potential energy surfaces (PES) of different interaction type. Among all the tested methods, MP2 has a satisfactory performance on electrostatic-dominated and mixed-type systems, except for dispersion-dominated systems. DFT-D functionals, especially ωB97XD functional, has a balanced performance across all the tested systems. Importantly, for RPA-based methods, the calculation accuracy can be dramatically improved by taking into account SE or exchange effects, especially in the mixed complexes. We conclude that rPT2 among all the test RPA-based methods gives an overall satisfactory performance across different interaction types. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the binary systems tetrahydrofuran (THF) + acetic acid (AA) and THF + trichloroethylene (TCE) were measured under isobaric conditions using an ebulliometer. The boiling temperatures for the systems (THF + AA/THF + TCE) are reported for 13/15 compositions and five/six different pressures ranging from 50.2/60.

Futility of traditional advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in saline wastewater treatment has stimulated the quest for novel "halotolerant" chemical oxidation technology. Acetylacetone (AA) has proven to be a potent photo-activator in the degradation of dyes, but the applicability of UV/AA for saline wastewater treatment needs to be verified. In this study, degradation of crystal violet (CV) was investigated in the UV/AA system in the presence of various concentrations of exogenic Cl or Br.

Cardiac neural crest (CNC) cells are pluripotent cells derived from the dorsal neural tube that migrate and contribute to the remodeling of pharyngeal arch arteries and septation of the cardiac outflow tract (OFT). Numerous molecular cascades regulate the induction, specification, delamination, and migration of the CNC. Extensive analyses of the CNC ranging from chick ablation models to molecular biology studies have explored the mechanisms of heart development and disease, particularly involving the OFT and aortic arch (AA) system.
