The confined tunnel bearing consecutive binding sites promotes complete desolvation of ions during their inclusion into the buried cavity, mimicking the ion translocation within ion channels. Our results demonstrate that the capability to manipulate guest recognition both in equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium states allows the host to effectively discriminate diverse guests via distinct mechanisms. The strategy to merge orthogonal selection mechanisms paves a new avenue to creating more robust hosts that may function in complex biological environments where many recognition events occur concurrently.Here we report the design of a bifunctional metal-organic layer (MOL), Hf-EY-Fe, by bridging eosin Y (EY)-capped Hf6 secondary building units (SBUs) with Fe-TPY (TPY = 4'-(4-carboxyphenyl)[2,2'6',2''-terpyridine]-5,5''-dicarboxylate) ligands. With the organic dye EY as an efficient photosensitizer and TPY-Fe(OTf)2 as the catalytic center, Hf-EY-Fe efficiently catalyzes aminotrifluoromethylation, hydroxytrifluoromethylation, and chlorotrifluoromethylation of alkenes. Hf-EY-Fe also catalyzes the synthesis of CF3-substituted derivatives of large bioactive molecules such as rotenone, estrone, and adapalene with sizes of up to 2.2 nm. The proximity between EY and iron centers and their site isolation in Hf-EY-Fe enhance catalytic activity while inhibiting their mutual deactivation, leading to high turnover numbers of up to 1840 and good recyclability of the MOL catalyst.Aryl and heteroaryl fluorides are growing to be dominant motifs in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, yet they are rare in both nature and commodity chemicals. As a consequence, there is an increasingly urgent need to develop mild, cost-effective, and scalable methods for fluorination. The most straightforward route to synthesize aryl fluorides is through the halide exchange "halex" reaction, but conditions, cost, and atom economy preclude most available methods from large-scale manufacturing processes. We report a new approach that leverages the cooperative action of 18-crown-6 ether and tetramethylammonium chloride to catalytically access the reactivity of tetramethylammonium fluoride and achieve halex fluorinations under mild conditions with operational ease. The described methodology readily converts both heteroaryl chlorides and aryl triflates to their corresponding (hetero)aryl fluorides in high yields and purities.Sirt1-3 are the most studied sirtuins, playing a key role in caloric-dependent epigenetic modifications. Since they are localized in distinct cellular compartments and act differently under various pathological conditions, selective inhibition would be a promising strategy to understand their biological function and to discover effective therapeutics. Here, sirtuin's inhibitor Ex527* is used as a probe to speculate the possible root cause of selective inhibition and differential structural dynamics of Sirt1-3. Comparative energetics and mutational studies revealed the criticality of residues I279 and I316 for the Sirt1 selectivity toward Ex527*. Furthermore, essential dynamics and residue network analysis revealed that the side-chain reorientation in residue F190 due to nonconserved residue Y191 played a major role in the formation of an extended selectivity pocket in Sirt2. These changes at the dynamical and residual level, which impact the internal wiring significantly, might help in rationally designing selective inhibitors against Sirt1-3.Five new quinolizidine alkaloids were isolated from the leaves of Cylicomorpha solmstii (Urb.) Urb. learn more (Caricaceae) and named cylicomorphins A-E (1-5). They all are ester derivatives of the same basic quinolizidine skeleton bearing hydroxy, methyl, and ethanoic acid substituents. Their structures were mainly established by NMR spectroscopy, and the absolute configuration is proposed on the basis of VCD data and Mosher ester derivatization. Compound 5 displayed cytotoxicity in the 10 μM range against an HCT-116 cell line.Light-driven unidirectional molecular rotary motors have the potential to power molecular machines. Consequently, optimizing their speed and efficiency is an important objective. Here, we investigate factors controlling the photochemical yield of the prototypical unidirectional rotary motor, a sterically overcrowded alkene, through detailed investigation of its excited-state dynamics. An isoviscosity analysis of the ultrafast fluorescence decay data resolves friction from barrier effects and reveals a 3.4 ± 0.5 kJ mol-1 barrier to excited-state decay in nonpolar media. Extension of this analysis to polar solvents shows that this barrier height is a strong function of medium polarity and that the decay pathway becomes near barrierless in more polar media. Thus, the properties of the medium can be used as a route for controlling the motor's excited-state dynamics. The connection between these dynamics and the quantum yield of photochemical isomerization is probed. The photochemical quantum yield is shown to be a much weaker function of solvent polarity, and the most efficient excited-state decay pathway does not lead to a strongly enhanced quantum yield for isomerization. These results are discussed in terms of the solvent dependence of the complex multidimensional excited-state reaction coordinate.The Curvature Constrained Splines (CCS) methodology has been used for fitting repulsive potentials to be used in SCC-DFTB calculations. The benefit of using CCS is that the actual fitting of the repulsive potential is performed through quadratic programming on a convex objective function. This guarantees a unique (for strictly convex) and optimum two-body repulsive potential in a single shot, thereby making the parametrization process robust, and with minimal human effort. Furthermore, the constraints in CCS give the user control to tune the shape of the repulsive potential based on prior knowledge about the system in question. Herein, we developed the method further with new constraints and the capability to handle sparse data. We used the method to generate accurate repulsive potentials for bulk Si polymorphs and demonstrate that for a given Slater-Koster table, which reproduces the experimental band structure for bulk Si in its ground state, we are unable to find one single two-body repulsive potential that can accurately describe the various bulk polymorphs of silicon in our training set.
