Azithromycin ethanol solvate monohydrate [CHNO0.5(CHO)HO], abbreviated by AZM-MH-EtOH, was synthesized by slow evaporation method and investigated by powder X-ray diffraction, Raman and infrared (IR) spectroscopy combined with density functional theory (DFT) studies. Electronic and vibrational properties were properly investigated based on a theoretical study of solvation effects, using implicit solvation and solute electron density models. The electronic and vibrational studies were evaluated under aqueous, ethanolic, and vacuum conditions. The electronic structure calculations indicated that the AZM-MH-EtOH is chemically more stable in solvents compared to vacuum condition. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) measurements confirmed the stability of the material in ethanolic medium, due to higher absorbance values compared to the aqueous medium. Vibrational changes were observed in the Raman and IR bands, which have connection with hydrogen bonds. The experimental vibration modes showed better accordance with the predicted modes' values under solvation effects, but a slight divergence is noticed when we compared to vibration modes obtained in vacuum. Furthermore, the results have revealed a greater affinity profile of AZM-MH-EtOH for water and ethanol solvents compared to theoretical data under vacuum condition.

Ammonia emissions from vehicles and power plants cause severe environmental issues, including haze pollution and nitrogen deposition. Selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) is a promising technology for ammonia abatement, but current catalysts often struggle with insufficient activity and poor nitrogen selectivity, leading to the formation of secondary pollutants. In this study, we developed a bifunctional Ru/Cu-CHA zeolite catalyst for ammonia oxidation, incorporating both SCO sites (Ru) and selective catalytic reduction sites (SCR, Cu).

Acenes are an important class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that have gained considerable attention from chemists, physicists, and material scientists, due to their exceptional potential for organic electronics. They serve as an ideal platform for studying the physical and chemical properties of sp carbon frameworks in the one-dimensional limit and also provide a fertile playground to explore magnetism in graphenic nanostructures due to their zigzag edge topology. While higher acenes up to tridecacene have been successfully generated by means of on-surface synthesis, it is imperative to extend their synthesis toward even longer homologues to comprehensively understand the evolution of their electronic ground state.

Alkenyl pheromones are a class of insect sex pheromones that are characterized by the presence of one or more double bonds, which can be either in the E(trans) or Z(cis) configuration. This structural variation is essential in mating, as it influences reproductive behavior and provides a potential method for insect control. As a base for rapid and in-situ screening of synthetic pheromones or pheromone-based products, this study explores the potential of Raman spectroscopy to differentiate between the two geometrical isomers, E(trans) and Z(cis), of the alkenyl pheromones.
