Lone-Pair Orbital Interactions in Polythiaadamantanes
The electronic structures of a series of polythiaadamantanes from thiaadamantane through 2,4,6,8,9,10-hexathiaadamantane (HTA) have been analyzed using density functional theory calculations in conjunction with Hückel and natural bond orbital analysis ...

On lower bounds for the energy of graphs
The concept of the energy of a graph was introduced by Gutman in 1978, inspired by the Hückel molecular orbital theory, which approximates the total [Formula: see text]-electron energy of a conjugated hydrocarbon molecule using the energy of its ...

Ion‐Pairing and Counterion Effects in Contemporary Photochemistry
Ion‐pairing and counterion effects have emerged as fundamental yet underexplored determinants of photochemical behavior. Far from inert, counterions, and Coulombic interactions modulate excited‐state dynamics, quenching efficiencies, emission, and catalytic pathways.

Room‐Temperature Gas‐Phase CO2‐to‐C3 Coupling by a 4f‐Aromatic Cluster
We engineered a 4f metalla aromatic cluster, PrB2C2−, that enables efficient sequential C−C coupling with CO2 at room temperature, yielding a linear C3 backbone. This system provides a complete theoretical catalytic cycle and establishes a new design principle for lanthanide mediated CO2 activation.

Tetracene and bis(tri(isopropyl)silylethynyl)tetracene (TIPS‐tetracene) exhibit characteristic similarities and differences in their electrochemical redox behavior depending on the base solvent of the electrolyte. Analysis of cyclic voltammograms allows the quantification of substituent and solvent effects and the calculation of an “electrochemical gap.

The Hubbard transition and unsaturated hydrocarbons [PDF]
We contrast a simple molecular orbital theory (Hückel) with a simple valence bond theory (Heisenberg–Dirac). We find for alternant systems in which both models have nondegenerate ground states that both models have ground states belonging to the most ...

Substituent Effects on Cyanine Dyes Vary with Position and Chain Length
In cyanines, substituent effects vary as a function of substituent position and cyanine length. Electron‐donating‐ and ‐withdrawing groups at meso‐ and α‐positions of 4n+1/4n−1 long cyanines (n = 1, 2, 3…) cause opposing, hypsochromic and bathochromic shifts of the 1st UV–vis absorption bands.

Reversible Dihydrogen Splitting and Diradical Reactivity of 1,4‐Digermabenzene‐1,4‐diide
The diradical reactivity of the 1,4‐digermabenzene‐1,4‐diide, [(ADC)Ge]2, has been demonstrated with a range of substrates. Notably, it undergoes reversible dihydrogen splitting and radical coupling with TEMPO (2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidinyloxyl = RO), forming [(ADC)GeH]2 and [(ADC)Ge(OR)]2, respectively.

Uniqueness of Supramolecular Systems
Thanks to the variety of classes of supramolecular systems, they have been widely used in various applications. For example, in sensing devices, catalysis, and biomedicine. An example of a conventional photovoltaic material converted into electrical energy. Selective UV or NIR absorbers are required to produce materials with low or no coloration.

Background and Purpose Dopamine receptor agonists, particularly targeting the dopamine D2L receptor (D2LR), have been used to treat Parkinson's disease (PD). However, valvular heart disease and somnolence, mainly caused by activating the serotonin 5‐HT2B receptor (5‐HT2BR) and dopamine D3 receptor (D3R), respectively, currently challenge their clinical
