AI Article Synopsis
- The central nitrogen (N) atom in the molecule CHN is planar, with three carbon (C) atoms and the N atom all lying nearly in the same plane.
- The three phenylene rings attached to the N create a propeller shape, while the naphthalene ring systems are slightly bent.
- In the crystal, molecules form inversion dimers through C-H interactions, which then connect to adjacent dimers, creating a column structure along the axis, with no significant interactions between these columns.
Article Abstract
In the title mol-ecule, CHN, the central N atom shows no pyramidalization, so that the N atom and the three C atoms bound to the N atom lie almost in the same plane. The three -phenyl-ene rings bonded to the N atom are in a propeller form. All of the naphthalene ring systems are slightly bent. In the crystal, mol-ecules form an inversion dimer, through two pairs of C-H⋯ inter-actions, which further inter-acts with the adjacent dimer another two pairs of C-H⋯ inter-actions, forming a column structure along the axis. There are no significant inter-actions between these column structures.

Singlet fission in carotenoid dimers - the role of the exchange and dipolar interactions.

A theory of singlet fission in carotenoid dimers is presented which aims to explain the mechanism behind the creation of two uncorrelated triplets. Following the excitation of a carotenoid chain "bright" B+u state, there is ultrafast internal conversion to the intrachain "dark" 1B-u triplet-pair state. This strongly exchange-coupled state evolves into a pair of triplets on separate chains and spin-decoheres to form a pair of single, unentangled triplets, corresponding to complete singlet fission.

BMP-9 and BMP-10 are TGF-β family signaling ligands naturally secreted into blood. They act on endothelial cells and are required for proper development and maintenance of the vasculature. In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, regulation is disrupted due to mutations in the BMP-9/10 pathway, namely in the type I receptor ALK1 or the co-receptor endoglin.

We have previously found that the presence of an H-type excitonic dimer formed by two fluorophores covalently bound to an oligonucleotide allows the delivery of such a polymer into live cells without inducing toxicity. We are now using time-resolved fluorescence measurements in solution to understand the molecular dynamics of an antisense probe and how pairing with complementary sense strands of various lengths and degrees of complementarity affects the antisense strand's properties. We report that a DNA strand composed of 30 residues and labeled with an H-type excitonic Cyanine-5/Cyanine-5 dimer shows a predominant 1.

Our recent molecular dynamics simulations of decomposing Alzheimer's disease plaques, under oscillating- and static external electric fields (Os-EEFs and St-EEFs), revealed the superiority of Os-EEF for decomposing plaques consisting of the 7-residue peptide segment. This conclusion is now reinforced by studying the dimers of the short peptides and trimers of the full-length Aβ-42 peptide. Thus, the dispersed peptides obtained following St-EEF applications reformed the plaques once the St-EEF subsided.

Pulsed dipolar electron paramagnetic resonance (PD-EPR) measurement is a powerful technique for characterizing the interactions and conformational changes of biomolecules. The extraction of these distance restraints from PD-EPR experiments relies on manipulation of spin-spin pairs. The orthogonal spin labeling approach offers unique advantages by providing multiple distances between different spin-spin pairs.
