1. Nicotine as a Catalyst for Chlorination Promoted by Hypochlorous Acid: Experimental and Theoretical Studies
There is robust evidence of the hypochlorous acid (HClO)-mediated damage in biomolecules, and nicotine boosts the chlorination potency of HClO. We present experimental and theoretical evidence of the mechanism by which nicotine catalyzes the chlorination of pyranine. The rate constants for chlorination of pyranine by HClO were measured in the presence (5.3 �

2. GRAPHEN-PHENYL-NH2 AS NANOCARRIER: A DENSITY FUNCTIONAL THEORY STUDY
Recently, graphene and modified graphene as one of the most suitable and the most important carbon nanomaterials have been introduced for drug delivery. In this paper, we have studied the binding characteristics of the EDC-NHS cross-linking process of graphene-phenyl-NH2 and 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) drug in both gas and solvent phases by density functiona

3. Synthesis and Molecular Modeling Study of Two Bromo-Dimethoxybenzaldehydes
This work describes the synthesis, molecular structure, and packaging of the compounds 6-bromo-2,3-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (6-BRB) and 5-bromo-2,3-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (5 BRB). Characterization in the solid-state was carried out by X-ray diffraction, and the analysis of the interactions was described by the Hirshfeld surface, which helps in understanding the

4. DFT, Molecular Docking, and ADME/Tox Screening Investigations of Market-Available Drugs against SARS-CoV-2
A series of drugs was investigated to determine structural, electronic and pharmacological properties, as well as the molecular affinity for the main protease of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The drugs were submitted to density functional theory calculations to optimize structures and predict binding preferences. The optimized

5. New Pair of 2-Amino-naphthoxazoles Derived from β-Lapachone: Synthesis, Spectral Evaluation and Crystal Structure
This work describes a novel synthetic route for obtaining 2-amino-naphthoxazoles derived from β-lapachone, which consists of a condensation reaction between β-lapachone and thiourea in a basic medium. This synthetic approach can be seen as a potential route for obtaining 2-amino-oxazoles from quinones. The obtained amino-naphthoxazoles were characterized b

6. First-Principles Calculations of a New Semi-Conductive Carbon Allotrope Named ABF-Carbon
Carbon is an extremely versatile element and can generate a plethora of structures with distinct properties. Proposing new possible metastable allotropic structures for carbon has been the subject of increasing interest over the past few years. In this contribution, we present a new carbon allotrope, named ABF-Carbon, based on the connection of spiropentadie

7. Synthesis, Spectroscopic Characterization, DFT Calculations and Preliminary Antifungal Activity of New Piperine Derivatives
Four new piperine derivatives, PC1-PC4, were synthesized, and their structures were fully characterized by infrared (IR) and 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopies. Quantum chemical calculations were performed using density functional theory (DFT) with the B3LYP-D3/6-31G(d,p) and 6-311+G(2d,p) basis sets. Electronic properties, such as th

8. Where’s the Spin? A DFT Study of Mixed-Valence Cyanide-Bridged Ruthenium Polypyridines
This article discusses the use of density functional theory (DFT) calculations in classifying and characterizing bimetallic ruthenium mixed-valence systems in terms of their electronic localization/delocalization degree. A standard B3LYP/LanL2DZ methodology including integral equation formalism-polarizable continuum model (IEF-PCM) solvent model is evaluated

10. Intercalation of Apocarotenoids from Annatto (Bixa orellana L.) into Layered Double Hydroxides
Synthetic conditions were evaluated to intercalate norbixin into layered double hydroxides (LDH). Norbixin was isolated from a hydrosoluble commercial annatto extract. LDH samples comprising M2+/Al3+ (M = Mg, Zn) were synthesized by coprecipitation and characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis coupled to mass spectrometry, vibrational spectroscopi

11. Heterostructured Langmuir-Blodgett Films of Ruthenium Bipyridine with 1,3,4-Naphthooxadiazole-Derived Amphiphile Complex as a Charge Storage Electrode
The molecular control in Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films may be exploited in charge storage electrodes provided a suitable choice of molecular architecture and components is made. In this paper, we employed a naphtyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole amphiphile (NFT1) and its complex [Ru(bpy)2NFT1]PF6 (RuNFT1) (bpy = 2,2’-bipyridine) in heterostructured LB films in a proof-of

12. Understanding Solvent/Bixin Interactions by Raman Spectroscopy
In this work, Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used in order to understand the nature of the interaction between the carotenoid bixin and organic solvents with dielectric constant varying from ca. 2 (toluene) to ca. 47 (dimethyl sulfoxide). Raman shifts registered for the main carotenoid marker band, the C=C stret
