The ESR parameters of PC spin labels in frozen membranes do not simply represent the membrane polarity or water penetration profile. Instead, they show a distribution between hydrogen-bonded (HB) and non-hydrogen-bonded (non-HB) states, which is affected by a number of factors in the membrane composition. Similar to the exclusion of solutes from crystallizing solvents, the pure bulk gel phase e...

In the title compound, C(20)H(26)N(2)OS, four non-H atoms of the thio-urea unit are approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.005 Å); the phenyl and benzene rings are twisted out of this plane by 28.55 (7) and 60.00 (7)°, respectively. An intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs. The hy-droxy group is hydrogen bonded to the double-bond S atom of an inversion-related mol-ecule, generating a h...

Benchmark quality structures and interaction energies have been produced using explicitly correlated coupled cluster methods for a systematic series of hydrogen and halogen bonded complexes: B···HCCH, B···HCl and B···ClF, with six different Lewis bases B. Excellent agreement with experimental structures is observed, verifying the method used to deduce the equilibrium deviation from collinearity...

Non-hydrogen-bonded isomers were photogenerated by UV (lambda > 335 nm) irradiation of o-hydroxybenzaldehyde (salicylaldehyde) and o-hydroxyacetophenone monomers isolated in low-temperature Ar matrixes. These photoisomerizations were found to be photoreversible. Upon shorter wavelength (lambda > 235 nm or lambda > 270 nm) UV irradiation, the initial forms of the compounds (with intramolecular h...

Chromatography is a tool to measure molecular interactions, and computational chemistry is a tool to explain molecular interactions. Therefore, reversed-phase liquid chromatography of acidic drugs using a pentyland an octyl-bonded silica gels was quantitatively analyzed in silico. A model pentyland an octyl-bonded silica gel and a methanol phases were constructed for docking with acidic drugs. ...

The influence of ion dissolution in water is still controversial. The challenge posed to the existing concept of dissolved ions acting as water structure makers and structure breakers through recent studies calls for more experimental evidence. The temperature-dependent relaxation dynamics of water in bulk and in ionic salt solutions can give an idea about the hydrogen-bonded network and hence ...

To investigate non-bonded interaction of Phenanthrene and BN nanostructure, geometric structure of Phenanthrene and B12N12 nano-ring with B3LYP method and 6-31g* basis set are optimized by using ab initio gaussian quantum chemical package. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate changes of electronic properties of aromatic compound in presences Nano ring field. Therefore reactivity and s...

Some heterobimetallic ion-pair complexes of Ni(II) with Mn(II), Co(II) and , Zn (II) using 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and 1-tert-butylimidazole-2-thione (tm) ligands were prepared by co-crystallization of Ni(II)-phen cationic complex and Cl / tm containing anionic complex in acetonitrile / methanol solvent. The [Ni(phen)3][MnCl4] (1) contains two molecule of acetonitrile and [Ni(phen)3] 2+ is h...
