Donor–donor?–acceptor molecules where the donor? bridges donor and acceptor have different possible interaction pathways for charge transfer.

Design automation of electronic systems [electronic design automation (EDA)] is the engineering science that derives software and hardware tools for the design of integrated circuits and systems based on abstraction, design methodologies, and software implementations of sophisticated algorithms for verification and synthesis. What makes EDA unique is the continuous interplay between theory and ...

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a rare congenital disorder arising from deficient development of ectoderm-derived structures including skin, nails, glands and teeth. The phenotype of HED is associated with mutation in EDA, EDAR, EDARADD and NEMO genes, all of them disruptingNF-κB signaling cascade necessary for initiation, formation and differentiation in the embryo and adult. Here w...

Abstract The development of a multifunctional oil adsorbing material which could effectively and quickly separate oily wastewater is one the focuses in water environment restoration. In this study, bamboo charcoal (BC) was used as an improver to modify polyurethane (PU) foam. results scanning electron microscope (SEM) Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed that addition BC impr...

The properties of the series of Electron Donor-Acceptor (EDA) descriptors of classical substituent effect (sEDA(I), pEDA(I)), double bonded substituent effect (sEDA(=), pEDA(=)), heteroatom incorporation effect in monocyclic systems (sEDA(II), pEDA(II)), and in ring-junction position (sEDA(III), pEDA(III)), are reviewed. The descriptors show the amount of electrons donated to or withdrawn from ...

Prompt deposition of fibronectin-rich extracellular matrix is a critical feature of normal development and the host-response to injury. Fibronectin isoforms that include the EDA and EDB domains are prominent in these fibronectin matrices. We now report using human dermal fibroblast cultures that the EDA domain of fibronectin or EDA-derived peptides modeled after the C-C' loop promote stress fib...

The generation of sulfonyl radicals has long been known as a flexible strategy in wide range different sulfonylative transformations. Meanwhile their use alkylation processes somehow limited due to inherent difficulty evolving less-stable after sulfur dioxide extrusion. Herein we report convenient that involves gem-difluorinated sulfinates an “upgrading-mask”, allowing these precursors decompos...

The interaction of the perimidone drug in solution state with the σ-acceptor iodine, the aliphatic π-acceptor tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) and the aromatic π-acceptor 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) have been studied through the initial formation of ionic intermediate to charge transfer (CT) complex in methanol at room temperature. The spectral studies of the complexes were determi...
