Mechanistic Insights into Electronic Current Flow through Quinone Devices

Nanomaterials, 2023
Molecular switches based on functionalized graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are of great interest in the development of nanoelectronics. In experiment, it was found that a significant difference in the conductance of an anthraquinone derivative can be ...

A novel quinone: Quinone methide isomerase generates quinone methides in insect cuticle

FEBS Letters, 1988
Insoluble cuticle‐bound enzyme(s) of Manduca sexta pharate pupae, which is known to convert N‐acetyldopamine to N‐acetylnorepinephrine through the intermediate formation of quinone methide, also converted exogenously supplied N‐acetyldopamine quinone to N‐acetylnorepinephrine.

Computational and Experimental Design of Quinones for Electrochemical CO2 Capture and Concentration

, 2022
Current state-of-the-art thermal technologies for CO2 Capture and Concentration (CCC) from industrial emissions and air are energetically inefficient. In contrast, electrochemical CCC (eCCC) using redox carriers can theoretically approach 100% efficiency.

A Simple and Robust Model for Predicting the Reduction Potential of Quinones Family; Electrophilicity Index Effect

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2012
This paper describes a procedure revealing the relationship between quantum chemical indices and electronic descriptors as independent variables and half-wave potential (E1/2) of quinones family as a dependent variable.
