Covering 2015 up to the end of 2020Even in the golden age of NMR, the number of natural products being incorrectly assigned is becoming larger every day. The use of quantum NMR calculations coupled with sophisticated data analysis provides ideal complementary tools to facilitate the elucidation process in challenging cases. Among the current computational methodologies to perform this task, the DP4+ probability is a popular and widely used method. This updated version of Goodman's DP4 synergistically combines NMR calculations at higher levels of theory with the Bayesian analysis of both scaled and unscaled data. Since its publication in late 2015, the use of DP4+ to solve controversial natural products has substantially grown, with several predictions being confirmed by total synthesis. To date, the structures of more than 200 natural products were determined with the aid of DP4+. However, all that glitters is not gold. Besides its intrinsic limitations, on many occasions it has been improperly used with potentially important consequences on the quality of the assignment. Herein we present a critical revision on how the scientific community has been using DP4+, exploring the strengths of the method and how to obtain optimal results from it. We also analyze the weaknesses of DP4+, and the paths to by-pass them to maximize the confidence in the structural elucidation.Energies calculated with density functional theory depend critically on the choice of the exchange-correlation functional. In this work, we use measured dissociation energies of Aun+ (n = 5-17) clusters as benchmark data to test two very different functionals for calculating total energies in these clusters; the simpler (and fast) PBE and the evolved (and expensive) B2PLYP double-hybrid functionals. PBE consistently gives poor agreement with the experimental results. In contrast, the B2PLYP functional, which implicitly includes electron correlation by performing a perturbative second-order correction, significantly improves the agreement of the calculations, at the cost of much more demanding computations. The better performance of the double-hybrid functional is ascribed to the longer range of the interatomic potential.In this paper, spiropyran-containing metal- and covalent-organic frameworks (MOFs and COFs, respectively) are probed as platforms for fostering photochromic behavior in solid-state materials, while simultaneously promoting directional energy transfer (ET). In particular, Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) between spiropyran and porphyrin derivatives integrated as linkers in the framework matrix is discussed. The photochromic spiropyran derivatives allow for control over material optoelectronic properties through alternation of excitation wavelengths. Photoinduced changes in the material electronic profile have also been probed through conductivity measurements. Time-resolved photoluminescence studies were employed to evaluate the effect of photochromic linkers on material photophysics. Furthermore, "forward" and "reverse" FRET processes occurring between two distinct chromophores were modeled, and the Förster critical radii and ET rates were estimated to support the experimentally observed changes in material photoluminescence.Several unique chiral 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole-2-thiones were made readily available by carrying out, in each case, a chiral-Mg(OTf)2/N,N'-dioxide-complex-promoted formal [2+1+2] cycloaddition in the presence of tetraethylenediamine. Control experiments revealed that in situ-generated ammonium thiocyanate was crucial for maintaining high enantioselectivity through its inhibition of the HNCS-induced racemization of the products.The collision complex between the ground electronic state of an organic molecule, M, and ground state oxygen, O2(X3Σg-), can absorb light to produce an intermolecular charge transfer (CT) state, often represented simply as the M radical cation, M+˙, paired with the superoxide radical anion, O2-˙. Aspects of this transition have been the subject of numerous studies for ∼70 years, many of which address fundamental concepts in chemistry and physics. We now examine the extent to which the combination of Molecular Dynamics simulations and electronic structure response methods can model transitions to the toluene-O2 CT state. To account for the experimental spectra, we consider (a) the distribution of toluene-O2 geometries that contribute to the transitions, (b) a quantitative description of intermolecular CT, and (c) oxygen-induced local transitions in toluene that complement the CT transitions, specifically transitions that populate toluene triplet states. We find that the latter oxygen-induced local transitions play a prominent role on the long wavelength side of the spectrum commonly attributed to the intermolecular CT transition. Our calculations provide a new perspective on the seminal discussion between R. S. Mulliken and D. F. Evans on the nature of O2-dependent transitions in organic molecules, and bode well for modeling transitions to excited states with CT character in noncovalent weakly-bonded molecular complexes.Herein, we introduce novel 1-dimensional nano-chained FeCo particles with unusually-high permeability prepared by a highly-productive thermal plasma synthesis and demonstrate an electromagnetic wave absorber with exceptionally low reflection loss in the high-frequency regime (1-26 GHz). OSMI-1 During the thermal plasma synthesis, spherical FeCo nanoparticles are first formed through the nucleation and growth processes; then, the high temperature zone of the thermal plasma accelerates the diffusion of constituent elements, leading to surface-consolidation between the particles at the moment of collision, and 1-dimensional nano-chained particles are successfully fabricated without the need for templates or a complex directional growth process. Systematic control over the composition and magnetic properties of FexCo1-x nano-chained particles also has been accomplished by changing the mixing ratio of the Fe-to-Co precursors, i.e. from 7  3 to 3  7, leading to a remarkably high saturation magnetization of 151-227 emu g-1.
