In this investigation, we utilized DFT and TD-DFT computational approaches to anticipate the photophysical characteristics of multifunctional materials, uncovering their significant reliance on the oxidation state and heavy atom influences of the chalcogen group on boron centered D(X)BNA cores, along with substitutions of weak phenylcarbazole (P-CBZ) and strong phenyldimethylacridine (P-DMAC) donors. The calculations demonstrated that both heavy atom (X = O, S, Se, Te) and oxidation (S, SO, SO<small>₂</small>, and Se, SeO) effects caused a decrease in singlet (S<small>₁</small>) and triplet (T<small>₁</small>) energies. Unexpectedly, the first singlet-triplet energy difference (Δ<em>E</em><small>_ST</small>) values exhibit a systematic decrease with weak donor-based molecules, while they increase with strong donor unit-based molecules with the heavy atom effects. Moreover, the Δ<em>E</em><small>_ST</small> values decrease systematically with the oxidation effect in both types of donor unit-based molecules. Conversely, the magnitudes of spin–orbit coupling (SOC) increase with heavy atom effects due to the orbital mixing and screening effects of lone pair electrons and decrease with oxidation effects because of their decreased lone pair electrons in both the S<small>₁</small>–T<small>₁</small> and T<small>₁</small>–S<small>₀</small> pathways.

Many existing pathway search algorithms rely on exhaustively enumerating the space of all possible enzymatic reactions using generalized rules, followed by an extensive analysis of the ensuing reaction network to extract candidate pathways for experimental validation. While this approach is comprehensive, many false positive reactions are often generated given the permissiveness of such reaction rules. Here, we have developed DORA-XGB, a enzymatic reaction feasibility classifier. DORA-XGB can be used within our DORAnet framework to assess whether newly enumerated enzymatic reactions and pathways would be feasible. To curate a training dataset for our model, we extracted enzymatic reactions from public databases and screened them for their general thermodynamic feasibility. We then considered alternate reaction centers on known substrates to strategically generate infeasible reactions with high confidence, thereby circumventing the lack of negative data in the literature. In training our model, we also experimented with various molecular fingerprinting techniques and configurations for assembling reaction fingerprints, taking into account not just primary substrate and primary product structures, but cofactor structures as well.

Didarul Islam","doi":"10.1039/D4ME00134F","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1039/D4ME00134F","url":null,"abstract":"<p >This research paper reports the synthesis of a super-porous hydrogel of xanthan gum with acrylamide (<em>i.e.</em>, XG-SPH) with highly dense interconnected capillary channels and its application as a desiccant material to capture water vapors from humid air. For the generation of the porous structure with interconnected capillary channels, the polymer desiccant was synthesized <em>via</em> gas blowing, foaming and polymerization. The presence of interconnected capillary channels was observed in the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images. The synthesized desiccant exhibited 0.27 g g<small>⁻¹</small> adsorption capacity at 50% relative humidity and 25 °C which drastically increased to 1.38 g g<small>⁻¹</small> at 25 °C and 90% relative humidity which suggested that the hydrophilic nature or the desiccant performance of the synthesized polymer desiccant increased with increasing relative humidity. The main driving force behind this high-water vapor adsorption capacity was the capillary condensation process which facilitated the adsorption or accommodation of more incoming water molecules at higher pressures. The adsorption of water molecules by the capillary condensation mechanism was further supported by the applicability of the type-III adsorption isotherm and the experimental data fitted well with the GAB adsorption isotherm. Moreover, the experimental kinetics data correlated well with the driving force model and indicated that water diffusion within the polymer structure followed a type II diffusion mechanism. The desorption kinetics indicated that the desorption occurred rapidly in the initial desorption stages, and most of the captured water was released within the first hour. Moreover, regenerating XG-SPH was energy efficient as it could be successfully regenerated at 50 °C and used for twenty adsorption–desorption cycles. The desiccant was able to retain almost 70% of its original adsorption capacity in the twentieth adsorption cycle. This suggests that gum polysaccharide-based super-porous hydrogels can extract or capture a considerable amount of water from the atmosphere without using any hygroscopic salt.</p>","PeriodicalId":91,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Systems Design & Engineering","volume":" 2","pages":" 115-128"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143107631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These “patchy” particles impose directional attractions between neighbors that favor the formation of low-coordination, open structures previously inaccessible <em>via</em> their isotropically interacting nanoparticle counterparts. However, unlike patchy colloids, patches on nanoparticles are highly deformable, presenting challenges for their predictive design. Here, we present a multi-faceted approach combining theory and simulation to investigate the underlying forces governing interactions between nanoparticles with flexible patches. We first develop a thermodynamic perturbation theory to fundamentally capture the interplay between patch–patch merging and directional entropic forces in controlling particle organization. We then employ theoretical insights to explicitly consider how monomer geometry synergizes with monomer connectivity in sculpting the equilibrium morphologies for polymeric chains composed of anisotropic monomeric subunits. Theory predictions are then validated using simulations, with excellent agreement across both local and global length scales. Combined, our findings indicate that a large suite of orientational and structural diversity can be attained <em>via</em> precision engineering of how patch–patch and entropic forces between the anisotropic nanoparticles counterbalance each other.

This is due, in part, to the binding of PBA to the commonly used diol chemistries having higher affinity than for PBA to glucose. The present study addresses this challenge by redesigning the diol chemistry in an effort to reduce its binding affinity to PBA, thereby enhancing the ability of glucose to compete with these redesigned PBA–diol crosslinks at its physiological concentration, thus improving responsiveness of the hydrogel network. Rheological analyses support enhanced sensitivity of these PBA–diol networks to glucose, while insulin release likewise improves from networks with reduced crosslink affinities.

In the BQQDI system, both phenyl- and cyclohexyl-terminated ethyl substituents show similar packing structures, demonstrating the unobvious impact of terminal groups. However, solution-processed single-crystal transistor studies revealed a relatively low electron mobility of cyclohexyl-terminated BQQDI. Based on molecular dynamics simulations, we attribute this discrepancy to dynamic molecular motions coupled with electronic coupling in the solid state. While phenyl groups in the phenylethyl substituent show intermolecular C–H⋯π interactions which lead to less dynamic motions, the cyclohexyl counterpart does not show any specific intermolecular interactions. Hence, a low-dynamic feature thanks to inter-side-chain interactions is promising for excellent charge-transport properties.
