We reveal the existence of polarizing quantum phases for enantiomers cold, interacting chiral molecules in an optical helicity lattice by means extended Bose-Hubbard model. These recently proposed lattices have sites with alternating which exert a discriminatory force on different handedness. In our study phase diagram we find that strong dipolar repulsion between results separation left and ri...

This paper reports the investigation of the chiral interaction between 3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine (MDMA) enantiomers and an immobilized polysaccharide-based chiral phase. For that, suspended-state high-resolution magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H HR-MAS NMR) was used. 1H HR-MAS longitudinal relaxation time and Saturation Transfer Difference (STD NMR) titra...

The effects of the chiral pharmaceuticals atenolol and propranolol on Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Micrococcus luteus, and Blastomonas natatoria were investigated. The growth dynamics of exposed cultures were monitored using a Bioscreen instrument. In addition, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy with appropriate chemometrics and high-performance liquid chromatography...

The deboronation of enantiomers planar-chiral benzyl (3-formamido-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl)acetate gave the individual (RP)- and (SP)-enantiomers (ee > 98%) a new amino acid containing nido-carborane fragment, (3-ammonio-7,8-dicarba-nido-undecaboran-7-yl)acetic acid. Chiral HPLC methods for analysis enantiomeric purity this compound was developed.

This study evaluated the construct validity of the Relationship Profile Test (RPT; Bornstein & Languirand, 2003), a 30-item self-report measure of dependency-detachment that yields three subscale scores: (a) destructive overdependence, (b) dysfunctional detachment, and (c) healthy dependency. Scores on the RPT subscales generally showed the expected patterns of intercorrelations and gender diff...

Chirality is ubiquitous in biology, including in biomineralization, where it is found in many hardened structures of invertebrate marine and terrestrial organisms (for example, spiralling gastropod shells). Here we show that chiral, hierarchically organized architectures for calcium carbonate (vaterite) can be controlled simply by adding chiral acidic amino acids (Asp and Glu). Chiral, vaterite...

We report a specific and sensitive method for determination of the individual optical isomers of nortilidine, a main metabolite of tilidine, with the aid of a nitrogen-sensitive detector. With N-trifluoroacetyl-L-leucyl chloride as chiral reagent, the diastereomeric derivatives of the nortilidine enantiomers could be separated and quantified in the nanogram range. Under these conditions, the en...

We examine the effect of cold dark matter on the discrimination between the two enantiomers of a chiral molecule. We estimate the energy difference between the two enantiomers due to the interaction between fermionic WIMPs (weak interacting massive particles) and molecular electrons on the basis that electrons have opposite helicities in opposite enantiomers. It is found that this energy differ...

Chirality and chiral molecules are key elements in modern chemical biochemical industries. Individual addressing the eventual separation of enantiomers have been still important elusive tasks molecular physics chemistry, a variety methods introduced over years to achieve these goals. Here, we theoretically demonstrate that pair cross-polarized THz pulses interacting with through their permanent...
