P−F Bond Activation of Organophosphates by [(iPrPNHP)Mn(CO)2]+
A DFT study of P−F bond activation of four organophosphate compounds, including nerve agent sarin, by (iPrPNHP)Mn(CO)2(OH) complex is presented. The reaction proceeds through the leaving of fluoride group from organophosphate compound, to produce defluorinated phosphates.

Supramolecular Approaches to the Detoxification of Nerve Agents
Abstract A promising, but not yet practiced, approach to the treatment of neurotoxic organophosphate poisoning is the administration of a scavenger that rapidly deactivates the nerve agent before it can exert its toxic effects. The detoxification rates required for successful use of this therapy can currently only be achieved with enzymes, but ...

Beginning with a description of the structure of NU‐1000 MOFs with computational linker design, a discussion on the role of a modulator in the synthesis, water stability, and use of NU‐1000 for energy and environmental application is undertaken. Industrial perspectives and projections of future research on NU‐1000 MOFs and the composites are also ...

Recent advances in cholinergic mechanisms as reactions to toxicity, stress, and neuroimmune insults
We reviewed the current advances in our understanding of the effects of a variety of stressors in order to connect acute poisoning with organophosphates, neurotoxicity, changes in microRNAs, and transfer RNA fragments with cholinergic signaling dysfunction.
