Abstract
A large number of scientific investigations are needed for developing a sustainable solid sorbent material for precombustion CO2 capture in the integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) that is accountable for the industrial coproduction of hydrogen and electricity. Keeping in mind the industrially relevant conditions (high pressure, high temperature, and humidity) as well as good CO2/H2 selectivity, we explored a series of sorbent materials. An all-rounder player in this game is the porous organic polymers (POPs) that are thermally and chemically stable, easily scalable, and precisely tunable. In the present investigation, we successfully synthesized two nitrogen-rich POPs by extended Schiff-base condensation reactions. Among these two porous polymers, TBAL-POP-2 exhibits high CO2 uptake capacity at 30 bar pressure (57.2, 18.7, and 15.9 mmol g-1 at 273, 298, and 313 K temperatures, respectively). CO2/H2 selectivities of TBAL-POP-1 and 2 at 25 °C are 434.35 and 477.93, respectively. On the other hand, at 313 K the CO2/H2 selectivities of TBAL-POP-1 and 2 are 296.92 and 421.58, respectively. Another important feature to win the race in the search of good sorbents is CO2 capture capacity at room temperature, which is very high for TBAL-POP-2 (15.61 mmol g-1 at 298 K for 30 to 1 bar pressure swing). High BET surface area and good mesopore volume along with a large nitrogen content in the framework make TBAL-POP-2 an excellent sorbent material for precombustion CO2 capture and H2 purification.

Abstract
Negative-ion mode electrospray ionization of solutions of ethanol (RF0OH), 2-fluoroethanol (RF1OH), 2,2-difluoroethanol (RF2OH), and/or 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (RF3OH) produces anionic dimers of the types (RFnO)2H- and (RFnO)(RFn+1O)H-. The exchange reactions of these anionic dimers with the neutral alcohols are examined in a quadrupole-ion trap to extract kinetic data, from which the reaction Gibbs energies are obtained. In all cases, the formation of anionic dimers containing the more highly fluorinated alcohols is favored. Quantum chemical calculations confirm this trend and, besides affording structural data, also determine the dissociation energies of the anionic dimers. These dissociation energies are much higher than those of the corresponding neutral dimers and increase further for the more highly fluorinated alcohols due to the stronger hydrogen-bond donor ability of the latter. The present results on the interaction of individual alkoxide anions and neutral alcohol molecules contribute to a better understanding of the association of the fluorinated alcohols in solution.

Abstract
The interplay between the local hydration shell structure, the length of hydrophobic solutes, and their identity (perfluorinated or not) remains poorly understood. We address this issue by combining Raman-multivariate curve resolution (Raman-MCR) spectroscopy, simulation, and quantum-mechanical calculations to quantify the thermodynamics and the first principle interactions behind the formation of defects in the hydration shell of alkyl-diol and perfluoroalkyl-diol chains. The hydration shell of the fluorinated diols contains substantially more defects than that of the nonfluorinated diols; these defects are water hydroxy groups that do not donate hydrogen bonds and which either point to the solute (radial-dangling OH) or not (nonradial-dangling OH). The number of radial-dangling OH defects per carbon decreases for longer chains and toward the interior of the fluorinated diols, mainly due to less favorable electrostatics and exchange interactions; nonradial-dangling OH defects per carbon increase with chain length. In contrast, the hydration shell of the nonfluorinated diols only contains radial-dangling defects, which become more abundant toward the center of the chain and for larger chains, predominantly because of more favorable dispersion interactions. These results have implications for how the folding of macromolecules, ligand binding to biomacromolecules, and chemical reactions at water-oil interfaces could be modified through the introduction of fluorinated groups or solvents.

Abstract
Due to the limited number of naturally existing canonical amino acids, several noncanonical amino acids have been designed to understand the diverse complex biological functions. Fluorinated amino acids are one of the important noncanonical amino acids that have been used to understand the different complex processes of proteins. In this study, the photophysical properties of the noncanonical amino acid 7-fluorotryptophan (7F-Trp) in different solvents have been investigated using extensive spectroscopic as well as quantum chemical calculation methods and compared with those of tryptophan (Trp). The spectroscopic and quantum chemical calculation data suggest that unlike Trp, 7F-Trp can be used to detect the excited-state proton transfer from solvents depending on its acidity, which makes 7F-Trp a potential candidate for sensing the excited-state proton transfer from the solvent molecules.
