A noncentrosymmetric crystal structure of a zwitterionic compound, pyridinium 5,7-dihydro-5,7-dioxo-6H-cyclopenta[b]pyridin-6-ylide, realized by weak…
2009
Abstract Crystal structures of pyridinium 1,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-2 H -inden-2-ylide (PI) of a zwitterionic molecule and its nitrogen substituted compounds, 4N-PI and 5N-PI, were solved with X-ray diffraction analyses. Whereas PI and 5N-PI showed centrosymmetric crystal structures, 4N-PI demonstrated a noncentrosymmetric crystal structure where all the molecules orient to almost the same direction. To elucidate the stability of such a polarized structure, we examined interatomic close contacts among the nearest neighbor molecules in the crystals and calculated intermolecular interaction energies with relation to those contacts. As a result, the noncentrosymmetric crystal structure of 4N-PI tu…
A remarkable rearrangement during reaction between triazolopyridinium ylides and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate

Abstract The ylides from 2-acylmethyltriazolopyridinium salts ( 1 ) react with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in toluene solution to give the 7-pyrroleninylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines ( 5 ).
Copolymerization of VDF and HFP in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide: A Robust Approach for Modeling Precipitation and Dispersion Kinetics
2012
A kinetic model is developed for the heterogeneous free-radical copolymerization of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene in supercritical CO 2. The model accounts for polymerization in both the dispersed (polymer-rich) phase and in the continuous (polymer-free) supercritical phase, for radical interphase transport, diffusion limitations, and chain-length-dependent termination in the polymer-rich phase. A parameter evaluation strategy is developed and detailed to estimate most of the kinetic parameters a priori while minimizing their evaluation by direct fitting. The resulting model predictions compare favorably with the experimental results of conversion and MWD at varying monomer fe…
Dispersion Polymerization of Vinylidene Fluoride in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide
2006
The dispersion polymerization of vinylidene fluoride in supercritical carbon dioxide is investigated using two ammonium carboxylate perfluoropolyether stabilizers of different molecular weights. Under suitable operating conditions a polymer made of well-dispersed spherical particles has been obtained up to relatively high conversion. The experimental data of polymerization rate and molecular weight distribution are in good agreement with the predictions of a model previously developed. Such an agreement supports the conclusion that the polymerization kinetics is dominated by the interphase transport of the active radicals between the continuous phase and the polymer particles.
A combined experimental and theoretical study of the thermal [3+2] cycloaddition of carbonyl ylides with activated alkenes
2018
International audience; 4-Benzoyl-3,5-diaryltetrahydrofuran-2,2-dicarbonitriles were first synthesized from 2,2-dicyano-3-aryloxiranes and chalcones at toluene reflux; the 4,5-cis products proved to be predominantly formed and were isolated. Whereas shortened reaction times were observed by using microwave irradiation or catalytic cuprous chloride, no significant stereoselectivity change was in general noticed. Reacting 2,2-dicyano-3-aryloxiranes with 2-cyclopentenone next afforded 3-aryl-4-oxohexahydro-1H-cyclopenta[c]furan-1,1-dicarbonitriles, and the endo stereoisomers were isolated. That no stereoselectivity change was noticed in the presence of cuprous chloride rather suggests an impac…
Non-syndromic Mitral Valve Dysplasia Mutation Changes the Force Resilience and Interaction of Human Filamin A
2018
International audience; Filamin A (FLNa), expressed in endocardial endothelia during fetal valve morphogenesis, is key in cardiac development. Missense mutations in FLNa cause non-syndromic mitral valve dysplasia (FLNA-MVD). Here, we aimed to reveal the currently unknown underlying molecular mechanism behind FLNA-MVD caused by the FLNa P637Q mutation. The solved crystal structure of the FLNa3-5 P637Q revealed that this mutation causes only minor structural changes close to mutation site. These changes were observed to significantly affect FLNa's ability to transmit cellular force and to interact with its binding partner. The performed steered molecular dynamics simulations showed that signi…
Analytic CCSD(T) second derivatives
1997
A general-purpose implementation of analytic CCSD(T) second derivatives is presented. Its applicability is demonstrated by calculations of vibration-rotation interaction constants for the astrophysically important molecule cyclopropenylidene (C3H2) in which the required cubic force constants have been determined by numerical differentiation of analytically evaluated second derivatives of the energy.
Encapsulation of xenon by bridged resorcinarene cages with high 129Xe NMR chemical shift and efficient exchange dynamics
2023
Functionalized cages encapsulating xenon atoms enable highly sensitive, background-free molecular imaging through a technique known as HyperCEST 129Xe MRI. Here, we introduce a class of potential biosensor cage structures based on two resorcinarene macrocycles bridged either by aliphatic carbon chains or piperazines. First-principles-based modeling predicts a high chemical shift (about 345 ppm) outside the typical experimental observation window for 129Xe encapsulated by the aliphatically bridged cage and two 129Xe resonances for the piperazine-bridged cages corresponding to single and double loading. Based on the computational predictions as well as 129Xe chemical exchange saturation trans…
Ab initio molecular dynamics study of overtone excitations in formic acid and its water complex
2018
In this article, we present results from ab initio molecular dynamics simulation of overtone excitation in formic acid monomer and its water complex in the gas phase. For the monomer, a conformation change is observed employing both OH and CH vibrational excitations, which supports experimental findings. In the formic acid–water complex, interconversion also takes place, but it proceeds via hydrogen exchange rather than via intramolecular reaction. Simulations raise a question on effect of quantum and matrix effects to the results. Also, a brief test of different computation methods was done on the system. peerReviewed
