The promotion effect of π-π interactions in Pd NPs catalysed selective hydrogenation. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2022 The utilization of weak interactions to improve the catalytic performance of supported metal catalysts is an important strategy for catalysts design, but still remains a big challenge. In this work, the weak interactions nearby the Pd nanoparticles (NPs)

In-depth characterization of self-healing polymers based on π–π interactions [PDF]
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2021 The self-healing behavior of two supramolecular polymers based on π–π-interactions featuring different polymer backbones is presented. For this purpose, these polymers were synthesized utilizing a polycondensation of a perylene tetracarboxylic ...

Electrostatics does not dictate the slip-stacked arrangement of aromatic π-π interactions. [PDF]
Chem Sci, 2020 Benzene dimer has long been an archetype for π-stacking. According to the Hunter–Sanders model, quadrupolar electrostatics favors an edge-to-face CH⋯π geometry but competes with London dispersion that favors cofacial π-stacking, with a compromise “slip ...

Uniform two-dimensional square assemblies from conjugated block copolymers driven by π-π interactions with controllable sizes. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2018 Two-dimensional (2-D) micro- and nano-architectures are attractive because of their unique properties. However, the formation of 2-D supramolecular highly symmetrical structures with considerable control is still a major challenge.

On the importance of π-π interactions in the structural stability of phycocyanins [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2023 The influences of π-π interactions in phycocyanin proteins and their environmental preferences were analyzed. The observations indicate that the majority of the aromatic residues in phycocyanin proteins are involved in π-π interactions.

Investigations on the role of cation-π interactions in active centers of superoxide dismutase [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2022 In this study, we have analysed the influence of cation–π interactions on stability and properties of superoxide dismutase (SOD) active centres. The number of interactions formed by arginine is higher than by lysine in the cationic group, while those ...

Benzene, an Unexpected Binding Unit in Anion–π Recognition: The Critical Role of CH/π Interactions
Sci, 2022 We report high-level ab initio calculations (CCSD(T)(full)/CBS//SCS-RI-MP2(full)/aug-cc-pwCVTZ) that demonstrate the importance of cooperativity effects when Anion–π and CH/π interactions are simultaneously established with benzene as the π-system.
