Article Abstract
The charge transfer interactions between the seproxetine (SRX) donor and -electron acceptors [picric acid (PA), dinitrobenzene (DNB), p-nitrobenzoic acid (p-NBA), 2,6-dichloroquinone-4-chloroimide (DCQ), 2,6-dibromoquinone-4-chloroimide (DBQ), and 7,7',8,8'-tetracyanoquinodi methane (TCNQ)] were studied in a liquid medium, and the solid form was isolated and characterized. The spectrophotometric analysis confirmed that the charge-transfer interactions between the electrons of the donor and acceptors were 1:1 (SRX: -acceptor). To study the comparative interactions between SRX and the other -electron acceptors, molecular docking calculations were performed between SRX and the charge transfer (CT) complexes against three receptors (serotonin, dopamine, and TrkB kinase receptor). According to molecular docking, the CT complex [(SRX)(TCNQ)] binds with all three receptors more efficiently than SRX alone, and [(SRX)(TCNQ)]-dopamine (CTcD) has the highest binding energy value. The results of AutoDock Vina revealed that the molecular dynamics simulation of the 100 ns run revealed that both the SRX-dopamine and CTcD complexes had a stable conformation; however, the CTcD complex was more stable. The optimized structure of the CT complexes was obtained using density functional theory (B-3LYP/6-311G++) and was compared.

With the increasing demand for food safety monitoring, the development of efficient, convenient, and green gas sensors has become a current research hotspot. Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) as a triethylamine sensor is a cutting-edge strategy for detection without the need for an additional power source. In this study, synthesized WO/MXene materials were prepared and bilayer thin films of carbon quantum dots (CPDs)-WO/MXene TENG.

Hydrogen sulfide (HS), carbonyl sulfide (COS), and dimethyl sulfide (DMS) are the primary sulfur compounds found in seawater, which cause pitting corrosion on the oxide passivation film of titanium, known as "the marine metals". In this study, density functional theory (DFT) was used to analyze the adsorption and surface electronic properties of these three small molecules on the anatase TiO(101) surface. The analysis was conducted through adsorption energy, work function, Mulliken charge population, and density of states (DOS).

Proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) is often employed to characterize gas-phase compounds in both indoor and outdoor environments. PTR-MS measurements are usually made without upstream chromatographic separation, so it can be challenging to differentiate between an ion of interest, its isomers, and fragmentation products from other species all detected at the same mass-to-charge ratio. These isomeric contributions and fragmentation interferences can confound the determination of accurate compound mixing ratios, the assignment of accurate chemical properties, and corresponding analyses of chemical fate.

The growing modern industry has promoted the development of gas sensors for environmental monitoring and safety checks. However, the traditional chemical resistance gas sensor still has some disadvantages such as high power consumption and limited detection, mainly due to the lack of charge transfer ability of sensing materials. In this paper, an ordered UV-activated gas sensor with mesoporous ZnO/TiO nanotube composite was prepared by precisely controlling the growth of ZnO on the inner wall of TiO nanotube.

We present a novel theoretical scheme for orbital relaxation in configuration interaction singles (CIS) based on a perturbative treatment of its electronic Hessian, whose analytical derivation is also established in this work. The proposed method, which can be interpreted as a "CIS-then-CIS" scheme, variationally accounts for orbital relaxation in excited states, thus significantly reducing the overestimation of charge-transfer excitation energies commonly associated with standard CIS. In addition, by incorporating de-excitation effects from CIS, we demonstrate that our approach effectively describes single bond dissociation.
