5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA): a First Principles Density-Functional Study [PDF]

open access: yesChem. Phys. Lett. 402, 111 (2005)., 2004
We report first principles density functional calculations for 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA) and several reduced forms. DHICA and 5,6-dihydroxyindole (DHI) are believed to be the basic building blocks of the eumelanins. Our results show that carboxylation has a significant effect on the physical properties of the molecules.

Addition of dianions of carboxylic acids to imines. Influence of the acid in the outcome of the reaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The addition of different carboxylic acids dianions to N-benzylidenebenzeneamine have been studied. The outcome of the reaction depends on the acid. Saturated ones lead to β-aminoacids with good yields and syn-selectivity whereas α,β-unsaturated ones ...

Liquid-Chromatographic Methods for Carboxylic Acids in Biological Samples

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Carboxyl-bearing low-molecular-weight compounds such as keto acids, fatty acids, and other organic acids are involved in a myriad of metabolic pathways owing to their high polarity and solubility in biological fluids. Various disease areas such as cancer,

Unprecedented alkylation of carboxylic acids by boron trifluoride etherate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The alkylation of carboxylic acids by an ethyl moiety of boron trifluoride etherate in the absence of ethyl alcohol from the reaction system is unexpected and novel.

Weak Acids Enhance Halogen Activation on Atmospheric Water’s Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report that rates of I_2(g) emissions, measured via cavity ring-down spectroscopy, during the heterogeneous ozonation of interfacial iodide: I^–(surface, s) + O_3(g) + H+(s) →→ I_2(g), are enhanced several-fold, whereas those of IO·(g) are unaffected,

Nonlinear optical properties of mono-functional 1,2-dihydro-1,2-methanofullerene[60]-61-carboxylic acid /polymer composites [PDF]

open access: yesChem. Phys. Lett. 369 (2003) 281-286, 2002
By using nanosecond laser pulses at 532-nm wavelength, we have studied the nonlinear optical properties of composites which consist of mono-functional 1,2-dihydro-1,2-methanofullerene[60]-61-carboxylic acid (FCA) and poly(styrene-co-4-vinylpyridine).

Carbene and photocatalyst-catalyzed decarboxylative radical coupling of carboxylic acids and acyl imidazoles to form ketones

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The combination of carbene- and photocatalysis has enabled unorthodox routes to ketone syntheses, but usually requires engineered or activated substrates.

Molecular insights into the modulation of the 5HT2A receptor by serotonin, psilocin, and the G protein subunit Gqα

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 6, Page 876-891, March 2025.
We explore 5HT2A receptor activation, a key target for psychedelic drugs, using molecular dynamics simulations. Without Gqα, the active receptor collapses to an inactive conformation, underscoring the G‐protein's role. Discovery of an intermediate “partially‐open” state and the higher affinity of ligands to the orthosteric binding site provides ...

Influence of ligand shape and steric hindrance on the composition of the nanocrystal ligand shell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Organic ligands play a key role in the synthesis of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals or quantum dots. Generally they consist of a functional group and an aliphatic chain, with carboxylic acids, thiols and phosphonic acids as typical examples.
