Herein, we have investigated the structure of phenyl formate⋅⋅⋅water (PhOF⋅⋅⋅H2O) dimer and various non-covalent interactions present there using gas-phase laser spectroscopy and microwave spectroscopy combined with quantum ...

In this study, we mined the PDB and created a structural library of 178,465 interfaces that mediate protein–protein/domain–domain interactions. Interfaces involving the same CATH fold(s) were clustered together. Our analysis ...

The synthesis of novel stibenium cations and their catalytic application in cyanosilylation of carbonyl compounds have been described. Treatment of chlorostibine L1SbCl [L1 = 1,2-C6H4{N(CH2tBu)}2] (2) with 1 equiv. of AgOTf ...

Seafloor heat flow provides information about the thermal evolution of the lithosphere, the magnitude and timing of volcanic activity, and hydrothermal circulation patterns. In the central Gulf of California, the Guaymas ...

A simple, scalable, and cost-effective CO2 laser direct-write process is introduced to produce adherent, high-quality micro-gradient-patterned carbon coating on multiple substrates under ambient conditions for application ...

We have investigated the Fermi surface properties of the Dirac type-II semimetal candidates (Ni,Zr)Te2 using torque magnetometry with applied fields up to 35 T. Magnetization shows clear de Haas–van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations ...

Ant species often have multiple morphologically distinct ‘castes’ within a single colony. Given that most of these castes are involved in non-reproductive tasks, and since such individuals thus never reproduce, the question ...

Quantum field theory provides us with the means to calculate scattering amplitudes. In recent years a dramatic new development has lead to great simplification of such calculations. This is based on the discovery of the ...

In this work, we have prepared a bulky ligand supported chlorogermylene (LGeCl) [L=C6H4-2-{C(Me)=NAr*}; Ar*=(2,6-bis(diphenylmethyl)-4-methylphenyl)] (2), chlorostannylene (LSnCl) (3), four-coordinate germylene (L2Ge) (4) ...

Prebiotically plausible single-chain amphiphiles are enticing as model protocellular compartments to study the emergence of cellular life owing to their self-assembling properties. Here, we investigated the self-assembly ...
