Exploration of singlet fission (SF) materials is vital for enhancing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of photovoltaic devices, and the development of an effective screening means is in great demand. In this work, we for the first time propose a promising dual-descriptor strategy to predict the SF energetics (Δ) from ground-state electronic properties, the gap (Gap) and exchange energy () between the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO), where Gap plays a dominant role and acts as a correction. This strategy is statistically verified through exploring the effect of N-doping on the electronic/energetic properties of the N-doped tetracene derivatives and isomers. Several rules of thumb are suggested, and the reliability of this strategy is validated by comparison with experiments. This work proposes a novel strategy for exploring SF chromophores with insights into the SF energetics from ground-state properties and certainly has fundamental interest and generality in exploring efficient SF-capable materials.

Rapamycin (or sirolimus) is a macrolide that has shown to be useful as an immunosuppressant and that was studied in metabolic, neurological, or genetic disorders. Rapamycin is a specific natural inhibitor of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) that is a kinase protein playing a pivotal role in cell growth and proliferation by activation of several metabolic processes. This work aimed to evaluate the utility of several compounds obtained from rapamycin and its semi-synthetic analogs everolimus and temsirolimus as possible radiopharmaceuticals oriented to this protein.

Quantifying electro/nucleophilicity by partitioning the dual descriptor.

Translating local electro/nucleophilicities into the language of reactive sites is an appealing theoretical challenge that could be conducive to strengthen the collaborative dialogue between experimentalists and quantum chemists. The usual schemes for such condensation, relying on atomic charges, may however lead to important information loss, due to a sometimes inappropriate averaging of the reactivity anisotropy. In this article, we present instead an approach based on the dual descriptor Δf, which aims at partitioning real space into nonoverlapping reactive domains that feature a constant Δf sign.
