The photocatalytic activity of meso-tetraphenylporphyrins with different metal centers (Fe, Co, Mn and Cu) adsorbed on TiO(2) (Degussa P25) surface has been investigated by carrying out the photodegradation of methyl orange (MO) under visible and ultraviolet light irradiation. The photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), diffuse reflectan...

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a versatile synthetic polyester. We noted that this depsipeptide analog of polyalanine has a helical structure that resembles a polyproline II helix. Using natural bond orbital analysis, we find that n→π* interactions between sequential ester carbonyl groups contribute 0.44 kcal mol(-1) per monomer to the conformational stability of PLA helices. We conclude that analo...

Oxymetazoline is a decongestant. It works by constricting (shrinking) blood vessels (veins and arteries) in your body. The nasal formulation acts directly on the blood vessels in your nasal tissues. Constriction of the blood vessels in your nose and sinuses leads to drainage of these areas and a decrease in congestion. Oxymetazoline is an adrenomimetic that nonselectively agonizes α1...

A fullerene is any molecule composed entirely of carbon, in the form of a hollow sphere.Naphazoline is a sympathomimetic agent with marked alpha adrenergic activity. It is a vasoconstrictor with a rapid action in reducing swelling when applied to mucous membrane. It acts on alpha-receptors in the arterioles of the conjunctiva to produce constriction, resulting in decreased congestion. It is an ...

The optimized structures of studied compounds 23-28 are non planner with the two phenyl at C3 and C9 are out of the molecular plane of thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridine as indicated from a dihedral angles of 710 and 1160 respectively, using DFT-B3LYP method with 6-311G(d,p) as basis set.

in the present work, the quantum theoretical calculations of the molecular structure of the 1-(1, 3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-(thiophene-5-carbonyl) thiourea has been predicted and are evaluated using density functional theory (dft) in gas phase. the geometry of the title compound was optimized by b3lyp/6-311+g and b3lyp/6-311+g* methods and the experimental geometrical parameters of the title compo...

Migalastat (Galafold) is a pharmacological chaperone indicated for the long term treatment fabry disease rare genetic disorder in adults. Quantum chemical calculations of energy, geometrical shape and vibrational wavenumbers have been accomplished by usage DFT method. The specific exploration infrared spectra compound underneath look at centered on potential energy distribution (PED). Dipole mo...

A natural bonding orbital (NBO) analysis of phosphate bonding and connection to experimental phosphotransfer potential is presented. Density functional calculations with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set carried out on 10 model phosphoryl compounds verify that the wide variability of experimental standard free energies of hydrolysis (a phosphotransfer potential benchmark) is correlated with the insta...

High-spin systems with orbital degeneracy are studied in the large spin limit. In the absence of Hund's coupling, the classical spin model is mapped onto disconnected orbital systems with spins up and down, respectively. The ground state of the isotropic model is an orbital valence bond state where each bond is an orbital singlet with parallel spins, and neighboring bonds interact antiferromagn...
