Abstract
Macrocyclic conformations play a crucial role in regulating their properties. Our understanding of the determinants to control macrocyclic conformation interconversion is still in its infancy. Here we present a macrocycle, octamethyl cyclo[4](1,3-(4,6)-dimethylbenzene)[4]((4,6-benzene)(1,3-dicarboxylate) (OC-4), that can exist at 298 K as two stable atropisomers with C2v and C4v symmetry denoted as C2v-OC-4 and C4v-OC-4, respectively. Heating induces the efficient stepwise conversion of C2v- to C4v-OC-4 via a Cs-symmetric intermediate (Cs-OC-4). It differs from the typical transition state-mediated processes of simple C-C single bond rotations. Hydrolysis and further esterification with a countercation dependence promote the generation of C2v- and Cs-OC-4 from C4v-OC-4. In contrast to C2v-OC-4, C4v-OC-4 can bind linear guests to form pseudo-rotaxans, or bind C60 or C70 efficiently. The present study highlights the differences in recognition behavior that can result from conformational interconversion, as well as providing insights into the basic parameters that govern coupled molecular rotations.

Abstract
Neutral 1-boraphenalene displays the isoelectronic structure of the phenalenyl carbocation and is expected to behave as an attractive organoboron multi-redox system. However, the isolation of new redox states have remained elusive even though the preparation of neutral boron(III)-containing phenalene compounds have been extensively studied. Herein, we have adopted an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand stabilization approach to achieve the first isolation of the stable and ambipolar 1-boraphenalenyl radical 1•. The 1-boraphenalenyl cation 1+ and anion 1- have also been electrochemically observed and chemically isolated, representing new redox forms of boraphenalene for the study of non-Kekulé polynuclear benzenoid molecules. Experimental and theoretical investigations suggest that the interconvertible three-redox-state species undergo reversible electronic structure modifications, which primarily take place on the polycyclic framework of the molecules, exhibiting atypical behavior compared to known donor-stabilized organoboron compounds. Initial reactivity studies, aromaticity evaluations, and photophysical studies show redox-state-dependent trends. While 1+ is luminescent in both the solution and solid states, 1• exhibits boron-centered reactivity and 1- undergoes substitution chemistry on the boraphenalenyl skeleton and serves as a single-electron transfer reductant.

Abstract
The ability of electronic devices to act as switches makes digital information processing possible. Succeeding graphene, emerging inorganic 2D materials (i2DMs) have been identified as alternative 2D materials to harbor a variety of active molecular components to move the current silicon-based semiconductor technology forward to a post-Moore era focused on molecule-based information processing components. In this regard, i2DMs benefits are not only for their prominent physiochemical properties (e.g., the existence of bandgap), but also for their high surface-to-volume ratio rich in reactive sites. Nonetheless, since this field is still in an early stage, having knowledge of both i) the different strategies for molecularly functionalizing the current library of i2DMs, and ii) the different types of active molecular components is a sine qua non condition for a rational design of stimuli-responsive i2DMs capable of performing logical operations at the molecular level. Consequently, this Review provides a comprehensive tutorial for covalently anchoring ad hoc molecular components-as active units triggered by different external inputs-onto pivotal i2DMs to assess their role in the expanding field of molecule-programmable nanoelectronics for electrically monitoring bistable molecular switches. Limitations, challenges, and future perspectives of this emerging field which crosses materials chemistry with computation are critically discussed.

Fe (III)-Mediated Antioxidant Response of the Acidotolerant Microalga Coccomyxa onubensis. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12030610.

Abstract
Coccomyxa onubensis (C. onubensis) is an acidotolerant microalga isolated from Tinto River (Huelva), which contains high levels of metal cations in solution, mainly Fe (II) and (III), and Cu (II). Fe is more bioavailable at low pH, mainly because Fe (II) and Fe (III) are far more soluble, especially Fe (III). For this reason, this study aims to evaluate both physiological and biochemical responses of C. onubensis when subjected to Fe (III)-induced stress. Changes in growth, photosynthetic viability and antioxidant responses to the induced oxidative stress were determined. The results obtained suggest that the addition of moderate Fe (III) levels to C. onubensis cultures results in improved growth and photosynthetic viability. Increases in the intracellular levels of the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) and flavonoids, used as antioxidant response biomarkers, a point at Fe (III)-mediated oxidative stress induction. The apparent decrease in the content of other phenolic molecules and polyunsaturated fatty acids might be understood as a sign of antioxidant molecules' involvement in reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging. In conclusion, a noticeable antioxidant capacity displayed by C. onubensis allows the use of moderate Fe (III) levels to trigger the accumulation of valuable antioxidant molecules, allowing the production of cell extracts with potential anti-inflammatory activity.

Abstract
A tetratopic bis(diphenylamino)anthraquinone linker is presented, and its physicochemical properties are evaluated. The linker is shown to successfully coordinate alkaline earth metals leading to four new reported metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which have been fully characterized, including single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The physicochemical and emissive properties of the MOF materials are investigated and compared to those of the uncoordinated ligand. Finally, the catalytic behavior of the ligand and the MOF materials toward the photooxidation of sulfides is described.

Abstract
Chromophores that generate singlet oxygen (1O2) in water are essential to developing noninvasive disease treatments using photodynamic therapy (PDT). A facile approach for formation of stable colloidal nanoparticles of 1O2 photosensitizers, which exhibit aggregation enhanced 1O2 generation in water toward applications as PDT agents, is reported. Chromophore encryption within a fuchsonarene macrocyclic scaffold insulates the photosensitizer from aggregation induced deactivation pathways, enabling a higher chromophore density than typical 1O2 generating nanoparticles. Aggregation enhanced 1O2 generation in water is observed, and variation in molecular structure allows for regulation of the physical properties of the nanoparticles which ultimately affects the 1O2 generation. In vitro activity and the ability of the particles to pass through the cell membrane into the cytoplasm is demonstrated using confocal fluorescence microscopy with HeLa cells. Photosensitizer encryption in rigid macrocycles, such as fuchsonarenes, offers new prospects for the production of biocompatible nanoarchitectures for applications involving 1O2 generation.

Second-order NLO properties and two-state switching effects of transition metal redox complexes of iron and cobalt: A DFT study. J Mol Graph Model 2021; 107:107975.

Abstract
Designing switchable materials with large contrasts of nonlinear optical properties has been the focus of research in recent decades because of their widespread applications. Redox-active metal complexes due to charge transfer excitation are suitable to produce switchable nonlinear optical (NLO) material. In this regard, we present here the redox switchable NLO response of active metal complexes of iron and cobalt. The geometric, electronic, molecular absorption, nonlinear optical properties, and switch "ON/OFF" style of these metal complexes are studied at the CAM-B3LYP/6-31 + G(d) level of theory. NLO responses of these redox metal complexes are described in terms of change in the charge transfer (CT) patterns by time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). The highest βo value of 301534 × 10-30 esu is noticed in [Fe-ethynyl-ZnP]1+ complex, because of obvious charge transfer transition from metal to ligand i.e meatal-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) in redox metal complex. In each redox metal isomeric pair, the greater hyperpolarizability value of individual isomer is quite consistent with its smaller energy gap (H-Lgap) between highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), low crucial excitation energy, and bathochromic shift of λmax. The remarkable βo contrasts of these isomeric redox complexes illustrate that they can be appropriate for effective redox-triggered NLO switches. Thus, the results reveal that these redox pair complexes show two-state switching "ON/OFF" effect.

Abstract
Oxidative stress due to the high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that damage biomolecules (lipids, proteins, DNA) results in acute inflammation. However, without proper intervention, acute inflammation progresses to chronic inflammation and then to several chronic diseases, including cancer, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular diseases, chronic inflammation, atherosclerosis, and more. There has been extensive research on the antioxidants of natural origin. However, there are myriad possibilities for the development of synthetic antioxidants for pharmacological applications. There is an increasing interest in the identification of novel synthetic antioxidants for the modulation of biochemical processes related to ROS. In this regard, derivatives of supramolecules, such as calix[n]arene, resorcinarene, calixtyrosol, calixpyrrole, cucurbit[n]uril, porphyrin etc. are gaining attention for their abilities to scavenge the free radicals. Supramolecular chemistry offers excellent scaffolds for the development of novel antioxidants that can be used to modulate free radical reactions and to improve the disorders related to oxidative stress. This review focuses on the interdisciplinary approach for the design and development of novel synthetic antioxidants based on supramolecular scaffolds, with potentially protective effects against oxidative stress.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen sensitization involving a class of hemiquinonoid-substituted resorcinarenes prepared from the corresponding 3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl-substituted resorcinarenes is reported. Based on variation in the molecular structures, quantum yields comparable with that of the well-known photosensitizing compound meso-tetraphenylporphyrin were obtained for the octabenzyloxy-substituted double hemiquinonoid resorcinarene reported herein. The following classes of compounds were studied: benzyloxy-substituted resorcinarenes, acetyloxy-substituted resorcinarenes and acetyloxy-substituted pyrogallarenes. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses revealed structural variations in the compounds with conformation (i.e., rctt, rccc, rcct) having some influence on the identity of hemiquinonoid product available. Multiplicity of hemiquinonoid group affects singlet oxygen quantum yield with those doubly substituted being more active than those containing a single hemiquinone. Compounds reported here lacking hemiquinonoid groups are inactive as photosensitizers. The term 'fuchsonarene' (fuchson + arene of resorcinarene) is proposed for use to classify the compounds.

Abstract
The four-arm nanomechanical switch 1 with four different terminals exhibits two switching arms (contacts A and D) and two distinct stations for binding (contacts B and C). In switching State I, the azaterpyridine arm is intramolecularly coordinated to a zinc(ii) porphyrin station (connection A ↔ B) while contact D (a ferrocenylbipyridine unit) and contact C (phenanthroline) remain disconnected. After addition of copper(i) ions (State II) both connections A ↔ B and C ↔ D are established. Upon one-electron oxidation, double-pole change-over switching cleaves both connections A ↔ B & C ↔ D and establishes the new connection A ↔ C (State III). Fully reversible three-state switching (State I → State II → State III → State II → State I) was achieved by adding appropriate chemical and redox stimuli.

Abstract
The current work focuses on self-assembled nano-architectures in which metal-ligand coordination between a zinc tetraphenyl-porphyrin (ZnP) and a zinc tetrakis(4-((1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)methyl)phenyl)-porphyrin (ZnP-TDP), as electron donors, and functionalized fullerenes (C60) featuring different conjugated pyridine substituents as electron acceptors have been designed and investigated. Stoichiometric ratios and binding constants were derived from absorption and fluorescence measurements. Important insight into the free-energy change of charge separation and recombination was obtained from differential pulse voltammetry studies. Compelling evidence for energy transfer, charge separation and recombination was obtained from femtosecond and nanosecond transient-absorption measurements in a wide temperature range. Intramolecular energy transfer is found to take place from TDP to ZnP followed by intramolecular charge transfer from ZnP to C60. Semiempirical and density-functional theory calculations were used to help understand the excited-state deactivation mechanisms.
