The stacking of 4n pi electron hydrocarbon rings into superphane structures can eliminate their antiaromaticity and result in through-space three-dimensional arom. character. This is demonstrated by the bond length equalized geometries and diatropic NICS v ...
Different decoupling sequences are tested - using various shaped radio-frequency (RF) pulses - to achieve the longest possible lifetimes of singlet-state populations over the widest possible bandwidths, that is, ranges of offsets and relative chemical shif ...
We present the spectroscopy and photofragmentation dynamics of two isomeric protonated dipeptides, H+AlaTyr and H+TyrAla, in a cold ion trap. By a combination of infrared-ultraviolet double resonance experiments and density functional theory calculations, ...
Composting and digestion are important waste management strategies. However, the resulting products can contain significant amounts of organic pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In this study we ...
We present here ultraviolet and infrared spectra of protonated aromatic amino acids in a cold, 22-pole ion trap. Ultraviolet photofragmentation spectra of protonated tyrosine and phenylalanine show vibronically resolved bands corresponding to different sta ...
Arrays of asymmetric Permalloy nanorings with a decentered inner hole are studied by broadband inductive spectroscopy in the gigahertz range. The spectra display a set of characteristic spin-wave eigenmodes. We find that these eigenmodes probe the absolute ...
The double-arom. character of selected monocyclic carbon, boron, and borocarbon rings is demonstrated by refined nucleus-independent chem. shift (NICS) analyses involving the contributions of individual canonical MOs and their out-of-plane NICS tensor comp ...
In this paper, we present a nano-quantum photonic approach for the calculation of normal dispersion phenomena in organic crystals such as N-(4-nitrophenyl)-L-prolinol(NPP). We assume that a laser beam consists of a flow of energetic particles that interact ...
he influence of the halogen upon the TiO2 photocatalytic degradation of p-halophenols in water has been investigated. Phenol was used as the reference compound. Compared with its value for phenol, the apparent first-order rate constant of removal, k, was s ...
The electrochemical degradation of saturated solutions of herbicides 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-methylpropionic acid and 2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propionic acid in 1 M HClO4 on a boron-doped diamond (BDD) thin film anode ...
