The aromatic fluctuation index (FLU): a new aromaticity index based on electron delocalization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this work, the aromatic fluctuation index (FLU) that describes the fluctuation of electronic charge between adjacent atoms in a given ring is introduced as a new aromaticity measure.

On the relations between aromaticity and substituent effect

open access: yesStructural Chemistry, 2019
Aromaticity/aromatic and substituent/substituent effects belong to the most commonly used terms in organic chemistry and related fields. The quantitative description of aromaticity is based on energetic, geometric (e.g., HOMA), magnetic (e.g., NICS) and ...

Aromatics

open access: yes, 2021
A start is made with the family of the para-dihalobenzenes, including the key system p-dichlorobenzene + p-dibromobenzene. Special attention is given to the melting behaviour of mixed materials prepared by zone levelling. The family of the dihalobenzenes is followed by the group of the 2-R-substituted naphthalenes which includes naphthalene itself (R =

Nicotinamide N‐methyltransferase promotes drug resistance in lung cancer, as revealed by nascent proteomic profiling

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
AZD9291 has shown promise in targeted cancer therapy but is limited by resistance. In this study, we employed metabolic labeling and LC–MS/MS to profile time‐resolved nascent protein perturbations, allowing dynamic tracking of drug‐responsive proteins. We demonstrated that increased NNMT expression is associated with drug resistance, highlighting NNMT ...

Quantum walks in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
Aromaticity is a well-known phenomenon in both physics and chemistry, and is responsible for many unique chemical and physical properties of aromatic molecules.

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Edge modification of PAHs: the effect of embedded heterocycles on the aromaticity pattern [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceAromaticity studies carried out on the condensed model system 2 with different heteroatoms showed that the NICS(1) aromaticity in the five-membered ring correlates with that in the parent five-membered ring having the same ...

Aromaticity and Antiaromaticity in the Excited States of Porphyrin Nanorings

open access: yesJournal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2019
Aromaticity can be a useful concept for predicting the behavior of excited states. Here we show that π-conjugated porphyrin nanorings exhibit size-dependent excited-state global aromaticity and antiaromaticity for rings containing up to eight porphyrin ...

Antibiofilm activity of a chionodracine‐derived peptide by NMR‐based metabolomics of cell‐free supernatant of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strains

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Are Metallacyclopentadienes Always Non-Aromatic?

open access: yesChemistry, 2021
Even though metallacyclopentadienes (MCPs) are among the most common metallacycles, their electron delocalization (aromaticity) has received far less attention than other metallacycles, such as metallabenzenes.
