Recent Developments in Noncovalent Interaction Methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The development of noncovalent interaction methods has been a long journey since the first use 40 years ago. Enormous efforts have been made, starting from a simple semiempirical approach to a complex wavefunction approach. In this review, we will first

Evaluation of Electron Density Shifts in Noncovalent Interactions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2021
In the present paper, we report the quantitative evaluation of the electron density shift (EDS) maps within different complexes. Values associated with the total EDS maps exhibited good correlation with different quantities such as interaction energies, Eint, intermolecular distances, bond critical points, and LMOEDA energy decomposition terms. Besides,

The halogen bond with isocyano carbon reduces isocyanide odor

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Carbon atoms of various species typically function as acceptors of noncovalent interactions when they are part of a π-system. Here, the authors report their discovery of a noncovalent halogen bond involving the isocyano carbon lone pair, which results in

Design of artificial metalloproteins/metalloenzymes by tuning noncovalent interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Noncovalent weak interactions [hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen (H)-bond] play crucial roles in controlling the functions of biomolecules, and thus have been used to design artificial metalloproteins/metalloenzymes during the past few decades.
