Abstract
Plasmon-mediated chemical reactions (PMCRs) have attracted considerable interest in recent times. The PMCR initiated by hot carriers is known to be influenced by the type of metals and the excitation wavelength. Herein, we have carried out the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) investigation of rhodanine (Rd), an important pharmacologically active heterocyclic compound, adsorbed on silver and gold nanoparticles (AgNP and AuNP) using 514.5 and 632.8 nm lasers. The prominent Raman band at 1566 cm-1 observed in the SERS spectra is attributed to the characteristic ν(C═C) stretching vibration of the Rd dimer and not of Rd tautomers. The chemical transformation of Rd to Rd dimer on metal surfaces is plausibly triggered by the indirect transfer of energetic hot electrons generated during the non-radiative decay of plasmon. The mechanism involved in the dimerization of Rd via the indirect transfer of hot electrons is also presented. The effect of wavelength on the dimerization of Rd is also observed on the AgNP surface, which indicates that the dimerization occurs more efficiently on the AgNP surface with excitation at 514.5 nm wavelength.

Abstract
Characterization of dynamic processes occurring at the nanoparticle (NP) surface is crucial for developing new and more efficient NP catalysts and materials. Thus, a vast amount of research has been dedicated to developing techniques to characterize sorption equilibria. Over recent years, solution NMR spectroscopy has emerged as a preferred tool for investigating ligand-NP interactions. Indeed, due to its ability to probe exchange dynamics over a wide range of timescales with atomic resolution, solution NMR can provide structural, kinetic, and thermodynamic information on sorption equilibria involving multiple adsorbed species and intermediate states. In this contribution, we review solution NMR methods for characterizing ligand-NP interactions, and provide examples of practical applications using these methods as standalone techniques. In addition, we illustrate how the integrated analysis of several NMR datasets was employed to elucidate the role played by support-substrate interactions in mediating the phenol hydrogenation reaction catalyzed by ceria-supported Pd nanoparticles.

Conformational Selectivity of Merocyanine on Nanostructured Silver Films: Surface Enhanced Resonance Raman Scattering (SERRS) and Density Functional Theoretical (DFT) Study.

Abstract
In this study, detailed structural and vibrational analysis of merocyanine has been investigated using Raman, surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS). The Raman, SERS and SERRS studies aided by density functional theoretical (DFT) calculations clearly established the prevalence of the trans- and cis-conformers of the protonated form of merocyanine (MCH+) in solid and acetonitrile solution. The binding characteristics of merocyanine adsorbed on nanostructured silver-coated films (SCFs) were investigated using excitation-dependent SERS, concentration-dependent SERRS and DFT studies. The conformers of merocyanine involved in the surface adsorption processes were recognized. The prominent marker bands observed at 1538 (ethylenic C=C stretch) and 1133 cm−1 (pyridinium C-N stretch) in the Raman spectrum of merocyanine in acetonitrile shifted to 1540 and 1126 cm−1, respectively on the nanostructured SCFs. The shift in the marker bands is associated with either the preferential binding of selective conformer or change in resonance equilibrium between the benzenoid and quinoid forms. The excitation wavelength dependent SERS spectrum infers that in addition to the major contribution from the electromagnetic enhancement, chemical (resonance) effect leads to the amplification of the 1540 cm−1 band. The concentration-dependent SERRS study showed maximum enhancement for the nanostructured SCFs functionalized with 1 μM concentration of merocyanine, indicative of monolayer coverage. For lower concentrations of merocyanine, the SERRS signal intensity reduced without any alteration in the peak positions. The SERRS study thus, revealed sub-nanomolar (0.1 nM) sensing of merocyanine using nanostructured SCFs with the analytical enhancement factor (AEF) of ∼ 1010 for the 1126 cm−1 and 1540 cm−1 Raman bands for MC concentration of 0.1 nM. In this study, combination of SERRS and DFT have clearly established the predominance of trans-MCH+ on the nanostructured silver surface with minor contribution from cis-MCH+, which remain exclusively bound to the surface via the phenoxyl ring O atom. This conformational surface selectivity of geometrical isomers of merocyanine using nanostructured surfaces can be further explored for energy efficient and economical separation of geometrical isomers.

Abstract
Stable conformers of neutral balenine were scanned through molecular dynamics simulations and energy minimizations using Allinger's MM2 force field. For each of the found minimum-energy conformers, geometry optimization and thermochemistry calculations were performed by using B3LYP, MP2, G3MP2B3 methods, 6-31G(d), 6-311++G(d,p) and aug-cc-pvTZ basis sets. The calculation results have indicated that balenine has about twenty stable conformers whose relative energies are in the range of 0-9.5 kcal/mol. Three of these are thought to provide the major contribution to matrix isolation IR spectra of the molecule. Our solvent calculations using the polarized continuum model revealed the stable zwitterion structures which are predicted to dominate IR spectra of balenine in water and heavy water (D2O) solvents. Pulay's SQM-FF method was used in scaling of the harmonic force constants and vibrational spectral data calculated for the neutral and zwitterion structures. These refined calculation data together with those obtained from anharmonic frequency calculations enabled us to correctly interpret the matrix isolation IR spectrum of balenine and the tautomerism-based changes observed in its KBr IR and solution (D2O) IR spectra. The results revealed the crucial role of conformation and zwitterionic tautomerism on the structure and vibrational spectral data of the molecule.

Abstract
The effect of adsorption of silver atoms to the nonlinear optical (NLO) active compound N,N' dimethyl urea ninhydrin (NDUN), has been analysed by computational methods. Single, double or triple silver atoms are added to the NDUN structure at an appropriate site and the geometry optimization, vibrational spectral and the natural bond orbital analyses, and hyperpolarizability calculations are done using B3LYP functional with LANL2DZ basis set. A comparison of IR spectra of the Ag-adsorbed NDUN (NDUN-Ag) is made to study the effect of the addition of silver atoms in the vibrational motions of the molecule. The NBO analysis gives an account of the interactions between atoms of the chosen molecule. The effect on NLO properties of NDUN is characterized by the polarizability, and the first and the second hyperpolarizability calculations.

Abstract
The endogenous dipeptide l-carnosine, and its derivative homocarnosine, prevent and reduce several pathologies like amytrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. Their beneficial action is severely hampered because of the hydrolysis by carnosinase enzymes, in particular the human carnosinase, hCN1. This belongs to the metallopeptidase M20 family, where a cocatalytic active site is formed by two Zn(2+) ions, bridged by a hydroxide anion. The protein may exist as a monomer and as a dimer in vivo. Here we used hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics simulations based on the dimeric apoenzyme's structural information to predict the Michaelis complexes with l-carnosine and its derivative homocarnosine. On the basis of our calculations, we suggest that (i) l-carnosine degradation occurs through a nucleophilic attack of a Zn(2+)-coordinated bridging moiety for both monomer and dimer. This mechanistic hypothesis for hCN1 catalysis differs from previous proposals, while it is in agreement with available experimental data. (ii) The experimentally measured higher affinity of homocarnosine for the enzyme relative to l-carnosine might be explained, at least in part, by more extensive interactions inside the monomeric and dimeric hCN1's active site. (iii) Hydrogen bonds at the binding site, present in the dimer but absent in the monomer, might play a role in the experimentally observed higher activity of the dimeric form. Investigations of the enzymatic reaction are required to establish or disprove this hypothesis. Our results may serve as a basis for the design of potent hCN1 inhibitors.

Abstract
The adsorption geometry of sodium 2-quinoxalinecarboxylate (2-QC) on iron surface was investigated by in situ surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy (SERS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations predicted that 2-QC ion was a highly efficient inhibitor and N as well as O atoms were the possible adsorption centers, and theoretically offered the Raman-active band position and intensity. Potential-dependent SERS results suggested that the 2-QC strongly bonded to the iron surface via the lone pair electrons of the two O atoms of the carboxylate group in a bidentate configuration with a vertical orientation at more positive potentials; However, at -1.0 V, only one O atom of the carboxylate and the neighboring N(1) atom (or very close to surface) adsorbed on the iron surface forming an unidentate configuration with a titled orientation. The ions did not remain on the iron surface at more negative potentials.

Abstract
Raman and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) studies of thioflavin T (ThT) in solid, solution, gold nanoparticles (GNPs), silver nanoparticles (SNPs) and silver-coated films (SCFs) were investigated. Concentration-dependent SERS spectrum of ThT in GNPs and SNPs indicated the existence of two possible structures, one with the torsional angle (φ) between benzothiazole and dimethylaminobenzene rings being 37° and the other with φ=90°. The SERS spectrum of ThT in SCFs were similar to the Raman spectrum of solid and solution that suggests φ=37°. In this paper, the high sensitivity of the SERS technique was employed for sub-nanomolar (picomolar) sensing of ThT.

Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a consequence of diabetes mellitus at the ocular level, leading to vision loss, and contributing to the decrease of patient's life quality. The biochemical and anatomic abnormalities that occur in DR are discussed in this review to better understand and manage the development of new therapeutic strategies. The use of new drug delivery systems based on nanoparticles (e.g. liposomes, dendrimers, cationic nanoemulsions, lipid and polymeric nanoparticles) is discussed along with the current traditional treatments, pointing out the advantages of the proposed nanomedicines to target this ocular disease. Despite the multifactorial nature of DR, which is not entirely understood, some strategies based on nanoparticles are being exploited for a more efficient drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye. On the other hand, the use of some nanoparticles also seems to contribute to the development of DR symptoms (e.g. retinal neovascularization), which are also discussed in light of an efficient management of this ocular chronic disease.

Abstract
Recently, unethical manufacturers illegally adulterated foods to increase the nitrogen content of protein through the use of melamine. Although surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) methods have been widely used to detect melamine, the details of the interaction mechanism between a melamine molecule and silver colloids are still unclear. In this paper, we present the adsorption behavior of melamine on the surface of silver nanoparticles, which we explored by using SERS and density functional theory calculation methods. The calculated results demonstrate that the melamine molecule interacts with the silver surface mainly via the heterocyclic nitrogen. When comparing the predicted spectra of the complexes of melamine-Ag(+) and melamine-Ag(0), we found that the spectrum of the former agrees better with the experimental spectra than that of the latter. In the structure of the melamine-Ag(+) complex, we found that the melamine molecule "stands" on the surface of nanoparticles, with a small tilt angle. The concentration-dependent SERS spectra reveal that the melamine molecule stands on the silver surface with a small tilt angle in high concentration, and the tilt angle becomes larger when the concentrations are diluted.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) study of tryptophan was carried out in silver hydrosol. The surface adsorption properties of tryptophan were investigated due to its biological importance. Tryptophan is an essential amino acid needed for the normal growth in infants and for nitrogen balance in adults. DFT calculations using B3LYP functional with LANL2DZ basis set was carried out to support the experimental Raman and SERS data. The strong enhancement of 1343 cm(-1) band, assigned to the CO(2) sym. stretching vibration in the SERS spectrum along with a red shift of 63 cm(-1), manifests that chemical mechanism contributes to the SERS activity. Moreover, the observed features in the SERS spectrum as well as theoretical calculations infer that tryptophan is chemisorbed to the silver surface directly through the oxygen and nitrogen atoms of the carboxylate and amino groups with an edge-on orientation with the indole ring lying nearly perpendicular to the silver surface. The SERS enhancement factors for various Raman vibrations of tryptophan were found to be of the order of 10(5)-10(6).
