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 ...
We characterize the transport of functionalized graphene nanoribbons using extensive first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) that encompass both monovalent and divalent ligands, hydrogenated defects, and vacancies. We find th ...
Five increasingly sophisticated aromaticity indexes, based on nucleus-independent chem. shifts (NICS), were evaluated against a uniform set of arom. stabilization energies (ASE) for 75 mono- and polyheterocyclic five-membered rings. While acceptable statis ...
The phenomenon of magnetism is one of the key components of today's technological progress. Magnetic interactions and magnetic materials are essential for the scientific disciplines of physics, chemistry and biology, making this subject truly multidiscipli ...
We present first-principles, density-functional theory calculations of the NMR chemical shifts for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, starting with benzene and increasing sizes up to the one- and two-dimensional infinite limits of graphene ribbons and sheet ...
We present a new method to engineer the charge carrier mobility and its directional asymmetry in epitaxial graphene by using metal cluster superlattices self-assembled onto the moiré pattern formed by graphene on Ir(111). Angle-resolved photoemission spect ...
The synthesis of 46 derivatives of (2R,3R,4S)-2-(aminomethyl)pyrrolidine-3,4-diol is reported (Scheme I and Fig. 3), and their inhibitory activities toward alpha-mannosidases from jack bean (B) and almonds (A) are evaluated (Table). ne most-potent inhibito ...
Electrical transport studies on graphene have been focused mainly on the linear dispersion region around the Fermi level(1,2) and, in particular, on the effects associated with the quasiparticles in graphene behaving as relativistic particles known as Dira ...
Recently, the sigma-aromaticity model proposed for cyclopropane by Dewar was employed to account for the stability of Group 8 trinuclear metal-carbonyl compds. [M3(CO)12] (M = Fe, Ru, Os). This paper further examines this hypothesis and provides the first ...
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 ...
