Abstract
The study investigated •OH-derived radicals from certain organic acids employed in nuclear fuel processing and separation using EPR spectroscopy and quantum chemistry methods. Hydroxyl radicals were generated through a Fenton-like reaction within the EPR resonator under both acidic and basic conditions, allowing for the detection of neutral and radical anions, respectively. The spectral assignment and analysis were conducted using a combination of literature data and quantum chemical calculations employing DFT theory with B3LYP or LPBE functionals and the L2a_3 basis set. The reaction of the •OH radical with lactic and glycolic acids yielded primary C-centered radicals through hydrogen abstraction from these acids. In contrast, the •OH radical exclusively generated secondary radicals from oxalic acid, whereas for citric acid, it resulted in both primary and secondary species induced by decarboxylation. The EPR spectrum of acetohydroxamic acid, upon reaction with the •OH radical, displayed a complex pattern featuring primary •N-type and N-O•-type radicals. The decay pathways of the generated radicals were primarily attributed to radical-radical reactions, with the extracted reaction rate constants generally falling within the typical range observed for such reactions. The EPR parameters calculated for potential radicals using B3LYP and LPBE functionals with L2a_3 basis set demonstrated good accuracy for neutral radicals, albeit requiring minor adjustments for radical anions.

Abstract
The reactivity of the nitrate radical (NO3˙) with organophosphorus and amidic actinide and lanthanide complexing agents of interest to nuclear solvent extraction applications was measured, resulting in the first-ever reported bimolecular rate constants for this radicals' reactions in dodecane solution. The order of reactivity for neutral organophosphorus compounds showed faster rate constants with increasing electron density on the phosphoryl phosphorus atom, indicating an increasing facility for electron abstraction reactions occurring in addition to H-atom abstraction from the ligand alkane chains. The only acidic organophosphorus compound investigated, HEH[EHP], showed low reactivity with the NO3˙ radical, attributed to its dimerization in this non-polar solvent. Amide ligand reaction rates were faster than for organophosphorus molecules, suggesting more facile H-atom abstraction from carbonyl activated methylene and amyl groups. While all rate constants were slower than the diffusion-limited rate they were still rapid enough to result in significant oxidation of solvent extraction ligands in dodecane solution.

Abstract
Our knowledge about endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs) is restricted to the structures with sufficient kinetic stability to be extracted from the arc-discharge soot and processed by chromatographic and structural techniques. For the most abundant rare-earth monometallofullerene MIII@C82, experimental studies repeatedly demonstrated C2v(9) and Cs(6) carbon cage isomers, while computations predicted equal stability of the "missing" C3v(8) isomer. Here we report that this isomer is indeed formed but has not been recovered from soot using standard protocols. Using a combination of redox extraction and subsequent benzylation and trifluoromethylation with single-crystal XRD analysis of CF3 adduct, we prove that Dy@C3v(8)-C82 is one of the most abundantly produced metallofullerenes, which was not identified in earlier studies because of the low kinetic stability. Further, using the Dy@C3v(8)-C82(CF3) and Dy@C3v(8)-C82(CH2Ph) monoadducts for the case study, we analyzed the role of metal-fullerene bonding on the single-ion magnetic anisotropy of Dy in EMFs. The multitechnique approach, combining ab initio calculations, EPR spectroscopy, and SQUID magnetometry, demonstrated that coordination of the Dy ion to the fullerene cage induces moderate, nonaxial, and very fluid magnetic anisotropy, which strongly varies with small alterations in the Dy-fullerene coordination geometry. As a result, Dy@C3v(8)-C82(CH2Ph) is a weak field-induced single-molecule magnet (SMM), whose signatures of magnetic relaxation are detectable only below 3 K. Our results demonstrate that metal-cage interactions should have a detrimental effect on the SMM performance of EMFs. At the same time, the strong variability of the magnetic anisotropy with metal position suggests tunability and offers strategies for future progress.

Abstract
The impact of substituents at the 4- and 7-positions of 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxamides on the photophysical properties of the ligands and their coordination compounds with the lanthanide triad-europium, gadolinium, and terbium-was analyzed. This study demonstrates how modification of the electronic nature of ligands through the incorporation of diverse functional groups affects the luminescence properties of their complexes. The introduction of various substituents leads to the appearance of intra-ligand or ligand-to-ligand charge transfer (CT) states. The highest luminescence efficiency was observed for LH·Eu(NO3)3 (Qin = 54.1% and QL = 9.6%), suggesting strong luminescence quenching of the CT state. It was found that a relatively low ΔE (∼3000 cm-1) supports direct energy transfer from S1 to T1 bypassing the CT state, even though it is outside Reinhoudt's optimal range. The introduction of fluorines leads to the strongest luminescence quenching among all the substituents.

Abstract
Isocyanates play an essential role in modern manufacturing processes, especially in polyurethane production. There are numerous synthesis strategies for isocyanates both under industrial and laboratory conditions, which do not prevent searching for alternative highly efficient synthetic protocols. Here, we report a detailed theoretical investigation of the mechanism of sulfur dioxide-catalyzed rearrangement of phenylnitrile oxide into phenyl isocyanate, which was first reported in 1977. The DLPNO-CCSD(T) method and up-to-date DFT protocols were used to perform a highly accurate quantum-chemical study of the rearrangement mechanism. An overview of various organic and inorganic catalysts has revealed other potential catalysts, such as sulfur trioxide and selenium dioxide. Furthermore, the present study elucidated how substituents in phenylnitrile oxide influence reaction kinetics. This study was performed by a self-organized collaboration of scientists initiated by a humorous post on the VK social network.

Abstract
The design of multimetal catalysts holds immense significance for efficient CO2 capture and its conversion into economically valuable chemicals. Herein, heterobimetallic catalysts (MiMo)L were exploited for the CO2 reduction reactions (CO2RR) using relativistic density functional theory (DFT). The octadentate Pacman-like polypyrrolic ligand (H4L) accommodates two metal ions (Mo, W, Nd, and U) inside (Mi) and outside (Mo) its month, rendering a weak bimetal coupling-assisted MN4 catalytically active site. Adsorption reactions have access to energetically stable coordination modes of -OCO, -OOC, and -(OCO)2, where the donor atom(s) are marked in bold. Among all of the species, (UiMoo)L releases the most energy. Along CO2RR, it favors to produce CO. The high-efficiency CO2 reduction is attributed to the size matching of U with the ligand mouth and the effective manipulation of the electron density of both ligand and bimetals. The mechanism in which heterobimetals synergetically capture and reduce CO2 has been postulated. This establishes a reference in elaborating on the complicated heterogeneous catalysis.

Abstract
Resonant electron capture by aza and diaza derivatives of phenanthrene (7,8-benzoquinoline and 1,10-phenanthroline) and anthracene (acridine and phenazine) at incident free electron energies (Ee) in the range of 0-15 eV was studied. All compounds except 7,8-benzoquinoline form long-lived molecular ions (M-) at thermal electron energies (Ee ∼ 0 eV). Acridine and phenazine also form such ions at epithermal electron energies up to Ee = 1.5-2.5 eV. The lifetimes (τa) of M- with respect to electron autodetachment are proportional to the extent of aza-substitution and increase on going from molecules with bent geometry of the fused rings (azaphenanthrenes) to linear isomers (azaanthracenes). These regularities are due to an increase in the adiabatic electron affinities (EAa) of the molecules. The EAa values of the molecules under study were comprehensively assessed based on a comparative analysis of the measured τa values using the Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus theory, the electronic structure analysis using the molecular orbital approach, as well as the density functional calculations of the total energy differences between the molecules and anions. The only fragmentation channel of M- ions from the compounds studied is abstraction of hydrogen atoms. When studying [M-H]- ions, electron autodetachment processes were observed, the τa values were measured, and the appearance energies were determined. A comparative analysis of the gas-phase acidity of the molecules and the EAa values of the [M-H]· radicals revealed their proportionality to the EAa values of the parent molecules.

Abstract
In this work, we study two series of the copolymers of L-lactide (LLA) and ε-caprolactone (CL) with the CL molar content of 5, 15, and 30 %. The first series was the commercial semicrystalline granules (Corbion, Netherlands), which we analyzed without any additional modification. The second series was amorphous films, prepared from the granules by hot pressing with the subsequent fast quenching in order to avoid the crystallization. We used Raman spectroscopy in conjunction with the quantum chemical modeling to evaluate the structure of the copolymers. As additional methods, we applied X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The main result of our study is the elaboration of the Raman methods of quantitative analysis of the relative contents of the comonomers and the crystallinity degree of the poly(L-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone). These methods are based on measurements of the ratios of the peak intensities of the poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) bands at 411 and 874 cm-1, the PLLA band at 2947 cm-1 and the poly(ε-caprolactone) band at 2914 cm-1. Raman study shows that growth of the CL content causes the monotonous decrease in the crystallinity degree of PLLA blocks. Density functional theory analysis of LLA decamer in the conformation of helix 103 allows us to assign the PLLA Raman bands. The Raman data on the composition and crystallinity degree of the copolymers correlate very well with the results of XRD and DSC studies, as well as with the information on the composition of the copolymers provided by manufacturer.

Abstract
The α-hydroxyethyl radical (CH3·CHOH, 2A) is a key intermediate in ethanol biochemistry, combustion, atmospheric chemistry, radiation chemistry, and astrochemistry. Experimental data on the vibrational spectrum of this radical are crucially important for reliable detection and understanding of the chemical dynamics of this species. This study represents the first detailed experimental report on the infrared absorption bands of the α-hydroxyethyl radical complemented by ab initio computations. The radical was generated in solid para-H2 and Xe matrices via the reactions of hydrogen atoms with matrix-isolated ethanol molecules and radiolysis of isolated ethanol molecules with x rays. The absorption bands with maxima at 3654.6, 3052.1, 1425.7, 1247.9, 1195.6 (1177.4), and 1048.4 cm-1, observed in para-H2 matrices appearing upon the H· atom reaction, were attributed to the OHstr, α-CHstr, CCstr, COstr + CCObend, COstr, and CCstr + CCObend vibrational modes of the CH3·CHOH radical, respectively. The absorption bands with the positions slightly red-shifted from those observed in para-H2 were detected in both the irradiated and post-irradiation annealed Xe matrices containing C2H5OH. The results of the experiments with the isotopically substituted ethanol molecules (CH3CD2OH and CD3CD2OH) and the quantum-chemical computations at the UCCSD(T)/L2a_3 level support the assignment. The photolysis with ultraviolet light (240-300 nm) results in the decay of the α-hydroxyethyl radical, yielding acetaldehyde and its isomer, vinyl alcohol. A comparison of the experimental and theoretical results suggests that the radical adopts the thermodynamically more stable anti-conformation in both matrices.

Combining Experimental and Computational Methods to Produce Conjugates of Anticholinesterase and Antioxidant Pharmacophores with Linker Chemistries Affecting Biological Activities Related to Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease. Molecules 2024; 29:321. [PMID: 38257233 PMCID: PMC10820264 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29020321] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Effective therapeutics for Alzheimer's disease (AD) are in great demand worldwide. In our previous work, we responded to this need by synthesizing novel drug candidates consisting of 4-amino-2,3-polymethylenequinolines conjugated with butylated hydroxytoluene via fixed-length alkylimine or alkylamine linkers (spacers) and studying their bioactivities pertaining to AD treatment. Here, we report significant extensions of these studies, including the use of variable-length spacers and more detailed biological characterizations. Conjugates were potent inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE, the most active was 17d IC50 15.1 ± 0.2 nM) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, the most active was 18d: IC50 5.96 ± 0.58 nM), with weak inhibition of off-target carboxylesterase. Conjugates with alkylamine spacers were more effective cholinesterase inhibitors than alkylimine analogs. Optimal inhibition for AChE was exhibited by cyclohexaquinoline and for BChE by cycloheptaquinoline. Increasing spacer length elevated the potency against both cholinesterases. Structure-activity relationships agreed with docking results. Mixed-type reversible AChE inhibition, dual docking to catalytic and peripheral anionic sites, and propidium iodide displacement suggested the potential of hybrids to block AChE-induced β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregation. Hybrids also exhibited the inhibition of Aβ self-aggregation in the thioflavin test; those with a hexaquinoline ring and C8 spacer were the most active. Conjugates demonstrated high antioxidant activity in ABTS and FRAP assays as well as the inhibition of luminol chemiluminescence and lipid peroxidation in mouse brain homogenates. Quantum-chemical calculations explained antioxidant results. Computed ADMET profiles indicated favorable blood-brain barrier permeability, suggesting the CNS activity potential. Thus, the conjugates could be considered promising multifunctional agents for the potential treatment of AD.

Abstract
Heavy metal ions (HMIs) have been widely applied in various industries because of their excellent physicochemical properties. However, their discharging without appropriate treatment brought about serious pollution problems. So it is desirable but challenging to rapidly and completely clean up these toxic pollutants from water, especially utilizing environmentally friendly and naturally rich biomass materials. In this work, we prepared nanocellulose/carbon dots/magnesium hydroxide (CCMg) ternary composite using cotton via a simple hydrothermal method. The removal mechanism towards Cd2+ and Cu2+ was investigated using a combination of experimental techniques and density functional theory calculations. CCMg shows a good ability to remove HMIs. It is realized that the interaction between each component of CCMg and cadmium nitrate is mainly of hydrogen/dative bonds. Cadmium nitrate is preferentially enriched by the Mg(OH)2 moiety, proved by calculated thermodynamics, interfacial interactions and charges. After transformation, the cadmium carbonate precipitate is fixed on the surface by nanocellulose (NC) via chemical coupling; and of interest is that copper ion precipitates in the form of basic sulfate. Due to its high adsorption effect and simple recovery operation, CCMg is having a wide range of application prospects as a water treatment agent.

Abstract
The radiation- and chemically-induced radicals from tributyl phosphate (TBP) have been characterized by EPR spectroscopy and theoretical calculations. The yield of X-ray-generated TBP radicals measured by a PBN spin trap is 0.22 μmol J-1 (2.1 radicals/100 eV) at room temperature (298 K). The EPR spectra obtained by irradiating TBP with an electron beam at 77 K are in close agreement with literature data for samples irradiated with gamma- and X-rays [https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02165504, https://doi.org/10.1016/1359-0197(89)90319-6]. Possible conformers of alkyl-type, TBP-derived radicals were analyzed by Density Functional Theory calculations. The main contribution to the experimental spectrum at 77 K is shown to be made by a conformer of the CH3˙CHCH2-radical, which contains all carbon atoms of the butyl group in the same plane. The EPR spectra of TBP radicals induced by the OH radical in aqueous solution were measured for the first time using a continuous flow system. The formation of the alkyl-type TBP radicals CH3˙CHCH2-, ˙CH2CH2-, and -CH2˙CHO- in the ratio of 5/4/1 was detected; their spectral assignment was based on quantum chemical calculations with rotational averaging of HFC constants for the corresponding beta- and alpha-protons.

Abstract
CONTEXT The interaction of norbornadiene (NBD) and norbornene (NBE) with the palladium (111) and (100) surfaces have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT). Five configurations of adsorbed NBD may be formed on Pd(111): endo-tetra-σ, endo-di-σ,π, endo-di-π, exo-di-σ, and exo-π. The NBE molecule adsorbed on Pd(111) may exist in 4 configurations: endo-di-σ, endo-π, exo-di-σ, and exo-π. On Pd(100), a smaller number adsorption configurations of NBD and NBE are formed, since the double bonds of these molecules in the endo-orientation are bound only in a di-σ mode. The adsorption energy of NBD and NBE molecules on Pd(100) is noticeably higher compared to Pd(111), which is due to the surface geometry of Pd(100). The most stable configurations on both Pd facets are endo-tetra-σ for NBD and exo-di-σ for NBE. However, due to smaller adsorption area of the exo-di-σ configuration on Pd(111), a larger number of NBD molecules may adsorbed on the same surface area. Energetically favorable endo-tetra-σ (NBD) and exo-di-σ (NBE) configurations are very mobile on Pd(111). On Pd(100), only NBE molecules can migrate, while NBD migration is hindered due to the high activation barrier. METHODS All DFT calculations were performed using the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof density functional (PBE) with the relativistic SBK effective core potential and TZ2P basis set in the PRIRODA program.

Abstract
Photophysical properties of a series of bis(arylydene)cycloalkanone dyes with various donor substituents are studied using quantum chemistry. Their capacity for luminescence and nonradiative relaxation through trans-cis isomerization is related to their structure, in particular, to the donor capacity of the substituents and the degree of conjugation due to the central cycloalkanone moiety. It is shown that cyclohexanone central moiety introduces distortions and disrupts the conjugation, thus leading to a nonmonotonic change in their properties. The increasing donor capacity of the substituents causes increase in the HOMO energy (rise in the oxidation potential) and decrease in the HOMO-LUMO gap, which results in the red shift of the absorption spectra. The ability of the excited dye to relax through fluorescence or through trans-cis isomerization is governed by the height of the barrier between the Franck-Condon and S1-S0 conical intersection regions on the potential energy surface of the lowest π-π* excited state. This barrier also correlates with the donor capacity of the substituents and the degree of conjugation between the central and donor moieties. The calculated fluorescence and trans-cis isomerization rates are in good agreement with the observed fluorescence quantum yields.

Derivatives of 9-phosphorylated acridine as butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors with antioxidant activity and the ability to inhibit β-amyloid self-aggregation: potential therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1219980. [PMID: 37654616 PMCID: PMC10466253 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1219980] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023] Open
Abstract
We investigated the inhibitory activities of novel 9-phosphoryl-9,10-dihydroacridines and 9-phosphorylacridines against acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and carboxylesterase (CES). We also studied the abilities of the new compounds to interfere with the self-aggregation of β-amyloid (Aβ42) in the thioflavin test as well as their antioxidant activities in the ABTS and FRAP assays. We used molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, and quantum-chemical calculations to explain experimental results. All new compounds weakly inhibited AChE and off-target CES. Dihydroacridines with aryl substituents in the phosphoryl moiety inhibited BChE; the most active were the dibenzyloxy derivative 1d and its diphenethyl bioisostere 1e (IC50 = 2.90 ± 0.23 µM and 3.22 ± 0.25 µM, respectively). Only one acridine, 2d, an analog of dihydroacridine, 1d, was an effective BChE inhibitor (IC50 = 6.90 ± 0.55 μM), consistent with docking results. Dihydroacridines inhibited Aβ42 self-aggregation; 1d and 1e were the most active (58.9% ± 4.7% and 46.9% ± 4.2%, respectively). All dihydroacridines 1 demonstrated high ABTS•+-scavenging and iron-reducing activities comparable to Trolox, but acridines 2 were almost inactive. Observed features were well explained by quantum-chemical calculations. ADMET parameters calculated for all compounds predicted favorable intestinal absorption, good blood-brain barrier permeability, and low cardiac toxicity. Overall, the best results were obtained for two dihydroacridine derivatives 1d and 1e with dibenzyloxy and diphenethyl substituents in the phosphoryl moiety. These compounds displayed high inhibition of BChE activity and Aβ42 self-aggregation, high antioxidant activity, and favorable predicted ADMET profiles. Therefore, we consider 1d and 1e as lead compounds for further in-depth studies as potential anti-AD preparations.

Abstract
An alternative continuum model implementation is reported. The electrostatic contribution to the solvation Gibbs free energy utilizes the noniterative conductor-like screening model of Vyboishchikov and Voityuk (DOI: 10.1002/jcc.26531) based on the fixed partial atomic charges. The nonelectrostatic solute-solvent dispersion-repulsion energy is calculated through the Caillet-Claverie atom-atom potential method employing the grid-based approach. The nonelectrostatic cavitation energy is computed within the scaled particle theory (SPT) formalism with the solute hard-sphere radius obtained via the Pierotti-Claverie (PC) scheme, from the solute molecular surface (SPT-S) or volume (SPT-V). The solvent hard-sphere radius is derived through the fitting to the experimental total solvation free energies of 2530 neutral species in 92 solvents. Application of the model to reproduce both the absolute and relative (reaction net) solvation free energies indicates that the SPT-V approach based on the CM5 charges is the best performer. The method is suggested for the solvation free energy calculation in the nonaqueous solvents.

Abstract
The successful management and safe disposal of high-level nuclear waste necessitate the efficient separation of actinides (An) from lanthanides (Ln), which has emerged as a crucial prerequisite. Mixed donor ligands incorporating both soft and hard donor atoms have garnered interest in the field of An/Ln separation and purification. One such example is nitrilotriacetamide (NTAamide) derivatives, which have demonstrated selectivity in extracting minor actinide Am(III) ions over Eu(III) ions. Nevertheless, the Am/Eu complexation behavior and selectivity remain underexplored. In the work, a comprehensive and systematic investigation has been conducted for [M(RL)(NO3)3] complexes (M = Am and Eu) utilizing relativistic density functional theory. The NTAamide ligand (RL) is substituted with various alkyl groups, namely, methyl, ethyl, propyl, n-butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, and n-octyl. Thermodynamic calculations show that the alkyl chain length in NTAamide is capable of tuning the separation selectivity of Am and Eu. Moreover, the differences in calculated free energies between Am and Eu complexes are more negative for R = Bu-Oct than Me-Pr. This indicates that elongation of the alkyl chain can increase the efficiency of selective separation of Am(III) from Eu(III). Based on the quantum theory of atoms in molecules and charge decomposition analyses, it has been observed that the strength of Am-RL bonds is higher than that of Eu-RL bonds. This disparity is attributed to a greater degree of covalency in Am-RL bonds and a higher level of charge transfer from ligands to Am within complexes containing these bonds. Energies of occupied orbitals with the central N character are recognized overall lower for [Am(OctL)(NO3)3] than for [Eu(OctL)(NO3)3], indicative of stronger complexation stability of the former. These results offer valuable insights into the separation mechanism of NTAamide ligands, which can help guide the development of more powerful agents for An/Ln separation in future applications.

Abstract
A reaction of acyl chlorides derived from 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylic acids with piperazine allows the preparation of the corresponding 24-membered macrocycles in good yield. The structural and spectral properties of these new macrocyclic ligands were thoroughly investigated, revealing promising coordination properties towards f-elements (Am, Eu). It was shown that the prepared ligands can be used for selective extraction of Am(III) from alkaline-carbonate media in presence of Eu(III) with an SFAm/Eu up to 40. Their extraction efficiency is higher than calixarene-type extraction of the Am(III) and Eu(III) pair. Composition of macrocycle-metal complex with Eu(III) was investigated by luminescence and UV-vis spectroscopy. The possibility of such ligands to form complexes of L:Eu = 1:2 stoichiometry is revealed.

Abstract
Optical isomers of short peptide Lysine-Tryptophan-Lysine (Lys-{L/D-Trp}-Lys) and Lys-Trp-Lys with an acetate counter-ion were used to study photoinduced intramolecular and intermolecular processes of interest in photobiology. A comparison of L- and D-amino acid reactivity is also the focus of scientists' attention in various specialties because today, the presence of amyloid proteins with D-amino acids in the human brain is considered one of the leading causes of Alzheimer's disease. Since aggregated amyloids, mainly Aβ42, are highly disordered peptides that cannot be studied with traditional NMR and X-ray techniques, it is trending to explore the reasons for differences between L- and D-amino acids using short peptides, as in our article. Using NMR, chemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization (CIDNP) and fluorescence techniques allowed us to detect the influence of tryptophan (Trp) optical configuration on the peptides fluorescence quantum yields, bimolecular quenching rates of Trp excited state, and the photocleavage products formation. Thus, compared with the D-analog, the L-isomer shows a greater Trp excited state quenching efficiency with the electron transfer (ET) mechanism. There are experimental confirmations of the hypothesis about photoinduced ET between Trp and the CONH peptide bond, as well as between Trp and another amide group.

Conjugates of Tacrine and Salicylic Acid Derivatives as New Promising Multitarget Agents for Alzheimer's Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24032285. [PMID: 36768608 PMCID: PMC9916969 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24032285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Revised: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
A series of previously synthesized conjugates of tacrine and salicylamide was extended by varying the structure of the salicylamide fragment and using salicylic aldehyde to synthesize salicylimine derivatives. The hybrids exhibited broad-spectrum biological activity. All new conjugates were potent inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) with selectivity toward BChE. The structure of the salicylamide moiety exerted little effect on anticholinesterase activity, but AChE inhibition increased with spacer elongation. The most active conjugates were salicylimine derivatives: IC50 values of the lead compound 10c were 0.0826 µM (AChE) and 0.0156 µM (BChE), with weak inhibition of the off-target carboxylesterase. The hybrids were mixed-type reversible inhibitors of both cholinesterases and displayed dual binding to the catalytic and peripheral anionic sites of AChE in molecular docking, which, along with experimental results on propidium iodide displacement, suggested their potential to block AChE-induced β-amyloid aggregation. All conjugates inhibited Aβ42 self-aggregation in the thioflavin test, and inhibition increased with spacer elongation. Salicylimine 10c and salicylamide 5c with (CH2)8 spacers were the lead compounds for inhibiting Aβ42 self-aggregation, which was corroborated by molecular docking to Aβ42. ABTS•+-scavenging activity was highest for salicylamides 5a-c, intermediate for salicylimines 10a-c, low for F-containing salicylamides 7, and non-existent for methoxybenzoylamides 6 and difluoromethoxybenzoylamides 8. In the FRAP antioxidant (AO) assay, the test compounds displayed little or no activity. Quantum chemical analysis and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with QM/MM potentials explained the AO structure-activity relationships. All conjugates were effective chelators of Cu2+, Fe2+, and Zn2+, with molar compound/metal (Cu2+) ratios of 2:1 (5b) and ~1:1 (10b). Conjugates exerted comparable or lower cytotoxicity than tacrine on mouse hepatocytes and had favorable predicted intestinal absorption and blood-brain barrier permeability. The overall results indicate that the synthesized conjugates are promising new multifunctional agents for the potential treatment of AD.

Abstract
Raman spectra of ethylene glycol (EG) and 1,3-propylene glycol (1,3-PG) aqueous solutions with the diol content from 10 to 90 mol% were measured. The diol content weakly influences the EG and 1,3-PG Raman bands in the spectra of the solutions in the region 250-1800 cm-1. This fact means that the conformational compositions of both the diols do not change significantly with dissolving in water. The intensity of the OH stretching band with respect to the diol bands intensities is the linear function of the ratio of the mole contents of water and the diol in the solutions. The spectral region 2800-3800 cm-1 can be used to evaluate the chemical composition of these binary solutions. DFT modeling of the Raman spectra of EG molecule in water shell confirms the prevalence of the gauche-conformation of EG in the aqueous solutions.

An Active Bio-Based Food Packaging Material of ZnO@Plant Polyphenols/Cellulose/Polyvinyl Alcohol: DESIGN, Characterization and Application. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24021577.

Abstract
Active packaging materials protect food from deterioration and extend its shelf life. In the quest to design intriguing packaging materials, biocomposite ZnO/plant polyphenols/cellulose/polyvinyl alcohol (ZnPCP) was prepared via simple hydrothermal and casting methods. The structure and morphology of the composite were fully analyzed using XRD, FTIR, SEM and XPS. The ZnO particles, plant polyphenols (PPL) and cellulose were found to be dispersed in PVA. All of these components share their unique functions with the composite's properties. This study shows that PPL in the composite not only improves the ZnO dispersivity in PVA as a crosslinker, but also enhances the water barrier of PVA. The ZnO, PPL and cellulose work together, enabling the biocomposite to perform as a good food packaging material with only a 1% dosage of the three components in PVA. The light shielding investigation showed that ZnPCP-10 can block almost 100% of both UV and visible light. The antibacterial activities were evaluated by Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Gram-positive staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), with 4.4 and 6.3 mm inhibition zones, respectively, being achieved by ZnPCP-10. The enhanced performance and easy degradation enables the biocomposite ZnPCP to be a prospect material in the packaging industry.

Abstract
Hydrosilylation of triethoxysilane with the mixture of ortho- and para-divinylbenzene in the presen¬ce of Karstedt’s catalyst has been carried out and the corresponding product triethoxy(vinylphenethyl)silane have been obtained. The structure and composition of the obtained product were proved by means of determining molecular mass, molecular refraction, and 1H and 13C NMR spectra data. It was found that the addition reaction proceeds both in ortho-position as well as in para-position. Hydrosilylation proceeds both Markovnikov and anti-Markovnikov rule. Via quantum-chemical calculations using the non-empirical density functional theory (DFT) method, the possible direction of the reaction has been considered.

Abstract
Sodium cation solvation Gibbs free energies (ΔGsolv(Na+)) have been obtained in water, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, ethanol, acetone, acetonitrile, and methanol through the "monomer cycle" cluster-continuum approach where a solvent reference state is described by infinitely separated molecules. The following steps are vital for obtaining reliable ΔGsolv(Na+) values: (a) a meticulous conformational search involving dispersion corrected density functional theory (DFT-D) and the continuum solvation model (CSM); (b) gas-phase DFT-D geometry optimization followed by single-point (SP) domain-based local pair natural orbital coupled clusters including single, double, and partly triple excitation (DLPNO-CCSD(T)) calculations in conjunction with the complete basis set extrapolation; (c) advanced statistical thermodynamic treatment of the low harmonic frequencies (<100 cm-1) to obtain the robust gas-phase Gibbs free energy correction; (d) gas-phase and dielectric continuum SP with non-electrostatic contributions included in the CSM; (e) an evaluation of the relative thermodynamic stability of the Na+(S)n clusters to identify the number of explicit solvent molecules n to be considered. Our refined computational protocol is promising with a Pearson correlation coefficient between the predicted and experimental data, ρ, of 0.82, and the mean signed and mean unsigned errors of 0.3 and 1.4 kcal mol-1, respectively.

Raman Study of Block Copolymers of Methyl Ethylene Phosphate with Caprolactone and L-lactide. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14245367.

Abstract
We present an in-depth analysis of Raman spectra of novel block copolymers of methyl ethylene phosphate (MeOEP) with caprolactone (CL) and L-lactide (LA), recorded with the excitation wavelengths of 532 and 785 nm. The experimental peak positions, relative intensities and profiles of the poly(methyl ethylene phosphate) (PMeOEP), polycaprolactone (PCL) and poly(L-lactide) (PLA) bands in the spectra of the copolymers and in the spectra of the PMeOEP, PCL and PLA homopolymers turn out to be very similar. This clearly indicates the similarity between the conformational and phase compositions of PMeOEP, PCL and PLA parts in molecules of the copolymers and in the PMeOEP, PCL and PLA homopolymers. Experimental ratios of the peak intensities of PMeOEP bands at 737 and 2963 cm-1 and the PCL bands at 1109, 1724 and 2918 cm-1 can be used for the estimation of the PCL-b-PMeOEP copolymers chemical composition. Even though only one sample of the PMeOEP-b-PLA copolymers was experimentally studied in this work, we assume that the ratios of the peak intensities of PLA bands at 402, 874 and 1768 cm-1 and the PMeOEP band at 737 cm-1 can be used to characterize the copolymer chemical composition.

Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) simulations of ring-opening copolymerization of ε-caprolactone (CL) and L-lactide (LA) in presence of novel gallium complex on aminobis (phenolate) ligand are conducted. The initial steps of polymerization of CL and LA as well as the first steps of propagation which led to LGa-LA-LA-OMe, LGa-LA-CL-OMe, LGa-CL-LA-OMe, or LGa-CL-CL-OMe derivatives have been analyzed in detail. According to these data, the studied catalyst is a rare example of a catalyst in which, during copolymerization, the polymerization of CL should proceed faster than LA. Thus, we predict the formation of a mainly block copolymer poly(CL-block-LA) using this catalyst.

Abstract
Mathematically describing the length-dependence of vibrational fingerprints of polyenes is challenging, yet crucial in understanding and predicting polyene-associated molecular properties of industrially-important and vital substances. To this end, we develop an analytical relationship between the wavenumbers ν∼C=C of the Raman-active CC stretching mode in polyene sequences (CHCH)n and the polyene length (n) using classical mechanics laws. Noteworthy, this relationship is derived from Newton's equations instead of regression approximations and validated against experimental data for degraded polyvinyl chloride (PVC), t-butyl end-capped all-trans polyenes, β-carotenes, and carotenoids. Furthermore, given this fundamental tool, we carefully re-examined or validated the up-to-now applied empirical tools; we find that: (i) A phenomenological exponential regression function ν~C=C=1461+151.2×exp-0.07808n proves fairly suitable for describing polyenes with lengths below 24 in degraded PVC. (ii) The derived analytical relationship agrees more closely with a long-established reciprocal-length regression function ν~C=C=1459+720/n+1 for describing carotenoids. Moreover, extensive DFT calculation results on all-trans polyenes H(CHCH)nH (n = 3-30) and polyenes end-capped with terminal vinyl chloride oligomers agree with experiment for shorter polyenes and are similar, showing that complicated calculations of ν∼C=C for infinite degraded PVC chains reduce to the calculations on finite polyene sequences. Noteworthy, unlike other polyene length-determination tools, the proposed analytical polyene length-determination based on intrinsic physical properties could well prove to be an even more versatile tool, as it comes with the added potential for determining or correcting the elasticity constants of carbon bonds in polyene chains.

Abstract
Here, we report the study results of the nitration of 3,7,10-trioxo-2,4,6,8,9,11-hexaaza[3.3.3]propellane (THAP) by different nitrating agents such as nitric acid, mixed nitric/sulfuric acids, nitric anhydride, and mixed concentrated nitric acid/acetic anhydride to furnish 3,7,10-trioxo-2-nitro-2,4,6,8,9,11-hexaaza[3.3.3]propellane and 3,7,10-trioxo-2,8-dinitro-2,4,6,8,9,11-hexaaza[3.3.3]propellane, whereas a lactam-lactim rearrangement was found to take place upon vigorous cooling to give 10-hydroxy-2,4,6,8,9,11-hexaazatricyclo[3.3.3.01,5]undec-9-ene-3,7-dione. The two competing reactions, lactam-lactim rearrangement, and nitration were found to take place. The acylation of 3,7,10-trioxo-2,4,6,8,9,11-hexaaza[3.3.3]propellane was examined and the formation conditions of 2,6-di- and 2,6,9-triacetyl-substituted and 3,7,10-trioxo-2,4,6,8,9,11-hexaacetyl-2,4,6,8,9,11-hexaaza[3.3.3]propellane were established. The acetyl derivatives were found to be instable in an acidic medium and to undergo deacylation. The obtained findings correlate well with the quantum-chemical calculations.

Abstract
A series of symmetrical dibenzylidene derivatives of cyclobutanone were synthesized with the goal of studying the physicochemical properties of cross-conjugated dienones (ketocyanine dyes). The structures of the products were established and studied by X-ray diffraction and by NMR and electronic spectroscopy. All the products had E,E-geometry. The oxidation and reduction potentials of the dienones were determined by cyclic voltammetry. The potentials were shown to depend on the nature, position, and number of substituents in the benzene rings. A linear correlation was found between the difference of the electrochemical oxidation and reduction potentials and the energy of the long-wavelength absorption maximum. This correlation can be employed to analyze the properties of other compounds of this type. Quantum chemistry was used to explain the observed regularities in the electrochemistry, absorption, and fluorescence of the dyes. The results are in good agreement with the experimental redox potentials and spectroscopy data.

Bis(oxiranes) Containing Cyclooctane Core: Synthesis and Reactivity towards NaN 3. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27206889.

Abstract
Reactions of oxirane ring opening provide a powerful tool for regio- and stereoselective synthesis of polyfunctional and heterocyclic compounds, widely used in organic chemistry and drug design. Cyclooctane, alongside other medium-sized rings, is of interest as a novel molecular platform for the construction of target-oriented leads. Additionally, cyclooctane derivatives are well known to be prone to transannular reactions, which makes them a promising object in the search for novel approaches to polycyclic structures. In the present work, a series of cyclooctanediones was studied in Corey-Chaykovsky reactions, and novel spirocyclic bis(oxiranes) containing cyclooctane core, namely, 1,5-dioxadispiro[2.0.2.6]dodecane and 1,8-dioxadispiro[2.3.2.3]dodecane, were synthesized. Ring opening of the obtained bis(oxiranes) upon treatment with sodium azide was investigated, and it was found that the reaction path is determined by the reciprocal orientation of oxygen atoms in the oxirane moieties. Diastereomers of the bis(oxiranes) with cis-orientation underwent independent ring opening, supplying corresponding diazidodiols, while in the case of stereoisomers with trans-orientation, domino-like reactions occurred, including intramolecular nucleophilic attack and the formation of a novel three- or six-membered O-containing ring. Summarily, a straightforward approach to polyfunctional compounds containing cyclooctane or oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane cores, employing bis(oxiranes), was elaborated.

Uranium-Doped Zinc, Copper, and Nickel Oxides for Enhanced Catalytic Conversion of Furfural to Furfuryl Alcohol: A Relativistic DFT Study. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27186094.

Abstract
Transition metal oxides (TMOs) and actinide ones (AnOs) have been widely applied in catalytic reactions due to their excellent physicochemical properties. However, the reaction pathway and mechanism, especially involving TM–An heterometallic centers, remain underexplored. In this respect, relativistic density functional theory (DFT) was used to examine uranium-doped zinc, copper, and nickel oxides for their catalytic activity toward the conversion of furfural to furfuryl alcohol. A comparison was made with their undoped TMOs. It was found that the three TMOs were capable of catalyzing the reaction, where the free energies of adsorption, hydrogenation, and desorption fell between −33.93 and 45.00 kJ/mol. The uranium doping extremely strengthened the adsorption of CuO-U and NiO-U toward furfural, making hydrogenation or desorption much harder. Intriguingly, ZnO-U showed the best catalytic performance among all six catalyst candidates, as its three reaction energies were very small (−10.54–8.12 kJ/mol). The reaction process and mechanism were further addressed in terms of the geometrical, bonding, charge, and electronic properties.

Abstract
Performance of contemporary tight-binding semiempirical GFNn-xTB methods for the conformational energies of singly charged sodium clusters Na+ (S)n (n = 4-8) with 3 protic and 8 aprotic solvents is examined against the reference RI-MP2/CBS method. The median Pearson correlation coefficients of ρ = 0.84 (GFN2-xTB) and ρ = 0.82 (GFN1-xTB) do not give the clear preference to any tested approach. GFN1-xTB method demonstrates more stable performance than its GFN2-xTB successor with the average mean absolute errors (MAEs)/mean signed errors (MSEs) of 1.2/0.2 and 2.3/1.6 kcal mol-1 , respectively. Conformational energies produced by the computationally efficient DFT functional PBE and double-ζ basis set complemented with -D3(BJ) dispersion correction are suitable for the preliminary sampling (median ρ = 0.93), but should be used with a caution for the calculations of the average ensemble properties (MAE/MSE = 1.7/1.1 kcal mol-1 ). Higher-ranking PBE0-D3(BJ) and ωB97M-V with triple-ζ basis sets yield significantly lower MAEs/MSEs of 0.55/0.20 and 0.51/0.23 kcal mol-1 , respectively.

Abstract
Superelectrophilic activation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and their isoelectronic analogs, proceeding normally under superacidic conditions, have led to a great variety of beneficial synthetic transformations. However, the essence of such activation is not yet fully recognized, while a number of alternative views on the subject have been discussed at length in the literature. Here, taking the example of virtual reactions of cinnamonitrile and benzalacetone with benzene, their feasible mechanistic variants, including multiple protonation (coordination to AlCl3) of the reactants, were analyzed based on density functional theory (DFT). It is revealed that the most plausible reaction pathways involve the initial N- or O-protonation (coordination to AlCl3) of the activated compounds followed by subsequent protonation on the α-C-atom. Dicationic superelectrophiles thus formed ensure practically barrier-free reactions with benzene in addition to a more favorable energetic profile of their generating, which is in marked contrast to other potential reaction pathways.

Abstract
Electron transfer plays a crucial role in ROS generation in living systems. Molecular oxygen acts as the terminal electron acceptor in the respiratory chains of aerobic organisms. Two main mechanisms of antioxidant defense by exogenous antioxidants are usually considered. The first is the inhibition of ROS generation, and the second is the trapping of free radicals. In the present study, we have elucidated both these mechanisms of antioxidant activity of glycyrrhizin (GL), the main active component of licorice root, using the chemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization (CIDNP) technique. First, it was shown that GL is capable of capturing a solvated electron, thereby preventing its capture by molecular oxygen. Second, we studied the effect of glycyrrhizin on the behavior of free radicals generated by UV irradiation of xenobiotic, NSAID-naproxen in solution. The structure of the glycyrrhizin paramagnetic intermediates formed after the capture of a solvated electron was established from a photo-CIDNP study of the model system-the dianion of 5-sulfosalicylic acid and DFT calculations.

Abstract
Fullertubes are tubular fullerenes with nanotube-like middle section and fullerene-like endcaps. To understand how this intermediate form between spherical fullerenes and nanotubes is reflected in the vibrational modes, we performed comprehensive studies of IR and Raman spectra of fullertubes C90-D5h, C96-D3d, and C100-D5d. An excellent agreement between experimental and DFT-computed spectra enabled a detailed vibrational assignment and allowed an analysis of the localization degree of the vibrational modes in different parts of fullertubes. Projection analysis was performed to establish an exact numerical correspondence between vibrations of the belt midsection and fullerene headcaps to the modes of nanotubes and fullerene C60-Ih. As a result, we could not only identify fullerene-like and CNT-like vibrations of fullertubes, but also trace their origin in specific vibrational modes of CNT and C60-Ih. IR spectra were found to be dominated by vibrations of fullerene-like caps resembling IR-active modes of C60-Ih, whereas in Raman spectra both caps and belt vibrations are found to be equally active. Unlike the resonance Raman spectra of CNTs, in which only two single-phonon bands are detected, the Raman spectra of fullertubes exhibit several CNT-like vibrations and thus provide additional information on nanotube phonons.
