Unexpectedly large binding constants of azulenes with fullerenes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In spite of having small pi-conjugation systems, azulenes show large binding constants (10(4)-10(5)) to C(60) and C(70), which are larger than those of monoporphyrins and alternant aromatic hydrocarbons.

Electronic structures of the electron donor-acceptor complexes of fullerenes C60 and C70 with azulene and some of its derivatives employing ab initio and DFT methods
Quantum mechanical calculations have been carried out to determine the structural and electronic properties of the electron donor-acceptor complexes of C60 and C70 with azulene and some of its derivative, viz, 1,3-dichloroazulene, 2-hydroxyazulene and 4,6,8-trimetrhyl azulene. The molecules studied are optimized first with semi-empirical molecular orbital theory at the third parametric level, a...

In this study, the combination of Phenergan C17H2ON2S, in which two aromatic rings are present, are attached to the rings at carbon position 5 and 13 halogens, and the changes in the asymmetric parameter, the convex constants, and the chemical displacement of the lateral carbon atoms are calculated. It shows that with the change of halogen based on the electrone...
متن کاملDetermination of the Binding Constant of Terbium-Transferrin
Apotransferrin (apo Tf) in 0.1 M N-(2hydroxyethyl)piperazine-N2-ethanesulfanic acid at 25 ˚C and pH 7.4 has been titrated with acidic solution of Tb3+. The binding of Tb3+ at the two specific metal-binding sites of transferrin was followed from the changes in the difference UV spectra at 245 nm. The molar absorptivity per binding site for Tb3+...
متن کاملSynthesis and complexation study of new ExTTF-based hosts for fullerenes.
A new series of exTTF hosts has been synthesized for supramolecular binding study of fullerenes C60 and C70. Binding constants for C60 in chlorobenzene, toluene, toluene-CH2Cl2 and CS2 have been calculated for different hosts and a direct structure-affinity relationship has been established. As predicted, receptors with two exTTF moieties (1, 3 and 4) have demonstrated higher binding abilities ...
متن کاملC60 binds to and deforms nucleotides.
Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations are performed for up to 20 ns to monitor the formation and the stability of complexes composed of single- or double-strand DNA molecules and C60 in aqueous solution. Despite the hydrophobic nature of C60, our results show that fullerenes strongly bind to nucleotides. The binding energies are in the range -27 to -42 kcal/mol; by contrast, the binding ener...
