Porphyrin nanotapes (Por NTs) are promising structures for their use as molecular wires thanks to a high degree of π-conjugation, low HOMO-LUMO gaps, and exceptional conductance. Such structures have been prepared in solution, but their on-surface synthesis remains unreported. Here, meso-meso triply fused Por NTs have been prepared through a two-step synthesis on Au(111). The diradical character of the on-surface formed building block PorA , a phenalenyl π-extended Zn Por, facilitates intermolecular homocoupling and allows for the formation of laterally π-extended tapes. The structural and electronic properties of individual Por NTs are addressed, both on Au(111) and on a thin insulating NaCl layer, by high-resolution scanning probe microscopy/spectroscopy complemented by DFT calculations. These Por NTs carry one unpaired electron at each end, which leads to magnetic end states. Our study provides a versatile route towards Por NTs and the atomic-scale characterization of such tapes.

Salmonella enterica serotype Oranienburg is a multi-host, ubiquitous, and prevalent Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) in subtropical rivers, particularly in sediments; little studied so far possible the adaptation and establishment of this microorganism based on its genetic content. This study was focused on the first five genomes of S. Oranienburg in sediments through whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and 61 river water genomes isolated in previous studies.

The formation mechanism and electronic structures of iron porphyrin nitrene intermediates, as well as the nitrene-mediated intermolecular C-H amination, have been studied by performing DFT and ab initio complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) calculations. Compared with that of cobalt porphyrin nitrene and iron porphyrin carbene, the formation of iron porphyrin nitrene shows similar but different characteristics. The common feature is that all their formation is required to undergo the "far" or "close" complexes, but these complexes correspond to different energies relative to their respective reactants (isolated metalloporphyrins and azides), which is considered as one main reason to determine the reaction barriers.

Infections due to non-typhi salmonellae (NTS) generally cause a mild and self-limited gastrointestinal disease. However, there have been reports of atypical and severe presentations in immunocompromised patients. We report the case of a male patient who consulted with a cervical mass.
