Researchers tune the speed of chirality switchingHello and welcome to the NanoLSI podcast. Thank you for joining us today. In this episode we feature the latest research by Shigehisa Akine at the Kanazawa University NanoLSI.The research described in this podcast was published in Science Advances in November 2023Kanazawa University NanoLSI websitehttps://nanolsi.kanazawa-u.ac.jp/en/Researchers tune the speed of chirality switchingResearchers at Kanazawa University report in Science Advances how they can accelerate and decelerate chirality inversion in large cage molecules using alkali metal ion binding.Chiral molecules can have dramatically different functional properties while sharing identical chemical formulae and almost identical structures. The molecular structure of two types of a chiral molecule – so-called enantiomers – are mirror images of each other where one cannot be superposed on the other any more than your right hand can fit front-to-back on the left. While a lot of chiral molecules are traditionally considered fixed as left- or right-handed, chiral molecules based on helices are known to be able to switch in response to changes in their environment. Now researchers led by Shigehisa Akine at Kanazawa University have demonstrated how environmental changes can also accelerate or decelerate this chiral inversion process, providing “a novel time-programmable switchable system”.The researchers focused their study on “metallocryptand (R6)-LNi3”, an organic molecule featuring metal atoms in a cage-like molecular structure that can exist in one of two possible forms described as the P or M type (right- and left-handed, respectively). In its pure form (R6)-LNi3 has a preferred ratio of P type to M type of 12:88. Starting from a 50:50 ratio, the molecules will flip between one form and the other with a preference for flipping towards the M type to meet that ratio. The researchers measured this change in ratio using NMR and circular dichroic spectroscopy. However, add an alkali metal into the cage cavity and this preference can change.By adding alkali metal ions to the solution of the (R6)-LNi3 the researchers could confirm that the metal ions readily bound to the metallocryptand from the changes in the spectroscopic signatures of the molecules. In addition, the bound ion also shifted the preferred ratio by a margin and with a speed that depended on which alkali metal was used.So what is causing this effect?The researchers attribute the different rates and ratios to differences in binding constants not just between the metal ion and the two forms of the molecule but also a virtual binding constant for the molecule transitioning between the two. The binding between a caesium ion and the P type molecule was more than 20 times greater than that with the M type so the solution eventually switched to a higher proportion of the P type with a P:M ratio of 75:25 over the course of 21 hours. The final ratio with a rubidium ion was similarly bias to the P type reaching a slightly lower ratio of 72:28 but in just 100 minutes. With potassium ion the equilibrium ratio was lower again at 68:32 but reached within just a minute, three orders of magnitude faster than for the caesium ion. The researchers attribute this speed to the large virtual bonding constant with the transitioning molecule.With smaller ions – lithium and sodium ions – the preferred molecular type did not actually change but the final ratio was reached much faster. It is the first time researchers have demonstrated that such chiral inversion can be sped up and slowed down by tuning the molecules environment.“This research can provide a new insight into the development of an on-deNanoLSI Podcast website

Kanazawa University NanoLSI Podcast:Experiments reveal chilli-sensitive molecular structure fluctuation changes in TRPV1Transcript of this podcast Hello and welcome to the NanoLSI podcast. Thank you for joining us today. In this episode we feature the latest research by Ayumi Sumino at the Kanazawa University NanoLSI alongside Motoyuki Hattori at Fudan University in China, and their colleagues. The research described in this podcast was published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science in May 2023 Kanazawa University NanoLSI websitehttps://nanolsi.kanazawa-u.ac.jp/en/Experiments reveal chilli-sensitive molecular structure fluctuation changes in TRPV1Researchers at Kanazawa University report high-speed atomic force microscopy experiments that show how ligands associated with stimulating and suppressing activation of the TRPV1 protein increase and decrease the molecule's structural variations. The observations provide insights into how these heat- and chilli-sensing proteins function.The skin senses heat – both from increased temperature and molecules like capsaicin in chillies – through the activation of protein receptors called Transient receptor potential vanilloid member 1 or TRPV1. However, the mechanisms behind the function of TRPV1 have not been clear. Now Ayumi Sumino at Kanazawa University in Japan and Motoyuki Hattori at the Fudan University in China and their colleagues provide important insights into this mechanism. Using high-speed atomic force microscopy to compare the protein with and without stimulating or suppressing molecules – ligands – bound to it, they obtain what they describe as “the first experimental evidence showing the correlation between molecular fluctuation and the gating state (ligand binding)”.So what was already known about this mechanism?Well once activated, the TRPV1 channel opens, allowing ions to permeate and signalling to the nervous system that a noxious stimulant is present. And in 2011 researchers at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute in the US put forward a theoretical basis for the activation of the receptor derived from thermodynamics, a theoretical framework that has since been corroborated by experiment. The idea was that the molecule would respond to heat with a change in heat capacity, which is related to the fluctuations in the molecule's conformation. Structures for the TRPV1 protein were known from previous cryo electron microscopy studies but these did not clarify how the fluctuations in protein conformation might change with stimulating or suppressing molecules, or even whether temperature and chilli sensing shared the same molecular mechanism.Here's where the high-speed atomic force microscopy comes inAtomic force microscopy (AFM) senses the topology of surfaces through the effect of distance on the forces on a nanosized tip positioned directly above the surface. The microscope was first invented in 1986 but gained a new lease of life through work at Kanazawa University that enabled it to capture topologies at high speed thereby providing a window into the dynamics of structures.Sumino, Hattori and colleagues used high-speed AFM to image the TRPV1 receptor both in its unbound state and when bound to ligand molecules that either stimulate, that is agonist molecules, or suppress - antagonist molecules - the protein's activity. They used the molecule resiniferatoxin, which is 1000 times hotter than capsaicin, as the agonist and for the antagonist they used capsazepine, which blocks the pain of capsaicin.From the structures captured the researchers were able to observe fluctuations in the conformation of both the bound and unbound states of TRPV1. They found that resiniferaNanoLSI Podcast website

All hydrohalic acids, but hydrofluoric acid, are strong acids. Why is that (0:31)? Strong acids fully dissociate and have a large Ka, weak acids only dissociate to a small percentage (1:20). When looking at strength, we are comparing the stability of the conjugate acid/base pair partners (2:00). For binary acids across a period (2:37) as well as down a group (3:09) electronegativity determines acid strength. For oxyacids, we can compare acids with different numbers of oxygen atoms, which affects the inductive effect, as well as resonance structures (4:58). We can also discuss acid strength across a period (6:44) and down a group (7:34). Bases are proton acceptors. Common bases are conjugate bases of weak acids, like carboxylic acids, and amines (7:53).Question of the Day: Acid A has a Ka = 3.5 x 10-8, acid B has a Ka = 1.2 x 10-2. Which acid is HClO, which one is HClO2?Thank you for listening to The APsolute RecAP: Chemistry Edition!(AP is a registered trademark of the College Board and is not affiliated with The APsolute RecAP.

Abstract: Blood clots are essential biomaterials that prevent blood loss and provide a temporary scaffold for tissue repair. In their function, these materials must be capable of resisting mechanical forces from hemodynamic shear and contractile tension without rupture. Fibrin networks, the primary load-bearing element in blood clots, have unique nonlinear mechanical properties resulting from their hierarchical structure, which provides multiscale load bearing from fiber deformation to protein unfolding. Here, we study the fiber and molecular scale response of fibrin under shear and tensile loads in situ using a combination of fluorescence and vibrational (molecular) microscopy. Imaging protein fiber orientation and molecular vibrations, we find that fiber orientation and molecular changes in fibrin appear at much larger strains under shear compared to uniaxial tension. Orientation levels reached at 150% shear strain were reached already at 60% tensile strain, and molecular unfolding of fibrin was only seen at shear strains above 300%, whereas fibrin unfolding began already at 20% tensile strain. Moreover, shear deformation caused progressive changes in vibrational modes consistent with increased protofibril and fiber packing that were already present even at very low tensile deformation. Together with a bioinformatic analysis of the fibrinogen primary structure, we propose a scheme for the molecular response of fibrin from low to high deformation, which may relate to the teleological origin of its resistance to shear and tensile forces.

Andy shares a powerful 7-Point Creed that he first learned about from listening to a Tony Robbins podcast from 28 years ago when Tony had interviewed world renown basketball coach, John Wooden. In the Robbins podcast, Wooden discusses the 7-Point Creed that his father taught him to live by. The 7-Point Creed is a special set of guiding principles that are very mindful in nature and can challenge us to reflect on the importance of creating our own creed to live by. Andy also shares an amazing study done by Dr. Masaru Emoto that has to do with how the molecular structure of water changes depending on the emotions and feelings that are cast upon it. In this comprehensive research project, Emoto exposes water to a wide range of both positive and negative emotions and proves how the structure of water can change from fragmented and chaotic forms to being beautifully crystallized in different shapes and sizes. A truly astonishing experiment with paying attention to. As this episode was recorded in Italy, Neila delves into a wonderful Italian expression, ‘dolce far niente’, which literally translates into the ‘Sweetness of Doing Nothing’. She discusses how the Italians embrace this type of attitude each and every day through the interactions that they have with others and how they structure this type of time into their own lives. She challenges everyone of us to think about how we might carve out time in our daily schedules to do the same. Neila also shares the meaning of the Sanskrit word, ‘Namaste’ and why this is so much more than a single word but a beautiful philosophy to embrace in our lives. Neila and Andy hope you find a gem or two that resonates with you in this episode which was recorded in the amazing, rustic, old fishing village of Monterosso, Italy. Bios Neila Steele and Andy Vasily are international educators who have worked at fully authorized IB schools in 4 different countries over the past 16 years (Japan, Azerbaijan, Cambodia, and China). Andy is a consultant, workshop leader, presenter, and speaker. Neila presents and leads multiple workshops in the area of mindfulness.

Photoinduced ultrafast isomerizations are fundamental reactions in photochemistry and photobiology. This thesis aims for an understanding of the generic forces driving these reactions and a theoretical approach is set up, able to handle realistic systems, whose fast relaxation is mediated by conical intersections. The main focus is on the development of strategies for the prediction and accelerated optimization of conical intersections and their application to artificial compounds with promising physicochemical properties for technical applications as molecular switches. All calculations are based on advanced quantum chemical methods and mixed quantum-classical dynamics. In the first part of this thesis the two-electron two-orbital theory by Michl and Bonacic-Koutecky used in its original formulation to rationalize the structure of conical intersections in charged polyene systems is extended by including the interactions of the active pair of electrons with the remaining closed-shell electrons that are present in any realistic system. A set of conditions, called resonance and heterosymmetry conditions, for the formation of conical intersections in multielectronic systems are derived and verified by calculations on the basic units ethylene, cis-butadiene and 1,3-cyclohexadiene at various geometries and functionalizational patterns. The quantitative results help to understand the role of geometrical deformations and substituent effects for the formation of conical intersections and to derive rules of thumb for their qualitative prediction in arbitrary polyenes. An extension of the rules of thumb to conical intersection seams is formulated. The strategy pursued is to divide the molecular system into basic units and into functional groups. Each unit and its intersection space are treated independently, thereby reducing the dimensionality of the search space compared to the complete molecule. Subsequently, the interconnectivity of the intersection spaces of the different units is determined and an initial guess for the complete seam is constructed. This guess is then fed into a quantum chemistry package to finalize the optimization. The strategy is demonstrated for two multi-functionalized systems, hemithioindigo-hemistilbene and trifluoromethyl-pyrrolylfulgide. In the second part of this thesis state-of-the-art quantum chemical calculations and time-resolved transient and infrared spectroscopy are used to reconstruct the complex multi-channel isomerization mechanisms of hemithioindigo-hemistilbene and trifluoromethyl-indolylfulgide. Both the cis-trans isomerization in hemithioindigo-hemistilbene and the electrocyclic ring closure/opening in indolylfulgide are characterized by a charge transfer in the excited state. The ability of each system to stabilize this charge transfer is essential for the returning to the ground state. The relaxation to the ground state through extended regions of the seam is found to be the decisive step determining the reaction speed and the quantum yield. In the last part of this thesis mixed quantum-classical dynamics simulations at multi-configurational perturbation theory (MS-CASPT2) level, using Tully's fewest switches surface hopping approach, are performed to study the ultrafast photoreactivity of 1,3-cyclohexadiene in the gas-phase. For this purpose a numerical routine for the efficient calculation of non-adiabatic couplings at MS-CASPT2 level is presented. The major part of the excited molecules are found to circumvent the 1B2/2A1 conical intersection and reach the conical intersection seam between the excited state and the ground state instantaneuosly. Time constants for the evolution of the wavepacket on the bright 1B2-state, the relaxation into the 2A1-state and the return to the ground state are extracted. It is demonstrated that the accessibility of the conical intersection seam depends on its energetic and spatial relation to the minimum energy path, as well as on the momentum which is accumulated during relaxation on the excited state potential energy surface.

Coordination Chemistry of Perhalogenated Cyclopentadienes and Alkynes, XV[1]. - Systematic Generation of Fivefold Ring-Silylated Cyclopentadienyl Manganese Complexes from [C5Br5]Mn(CO)3. Molecular Structure of [C5Br3(SiMe3)2]Mn(CO)3 [C5Br5]Mn(CO)3 reacts in a sequence of alternate bromine-lithium exchange reactions and electrophilic silylations by SiMe3Cl or SiMe3OSO2CF3 to give [C5Br5-n(SiMe3)n]Mn(CO)3, where n = 1 (1), 2 (2), or 3 (3). A crystal structure determination of 2 shows the two silyl substituents in the relative 1,3-orientation. Addition of one or two equivalents of BuLi and SiMe2HCl to a solution of 3 yields [C5Br2-n(SiMe3)3-(SiMe2H)n]Mn(CO)3 with n = 1 (4) and 2 (5), respectively. If 1 is treated twice with 2 eq. of BuLi and then 2 eq. of SiMe2HCl, a further pentasilylated compound, [C5(SiMe3)(SiMe2H)4]-Mn(CO)3 (6), is obtained. In situ chlorination of [C5(SiMe2H)5]Mn(CO)3 or 6 with PdCl2, followed by addition of MeMgCl, yields after chromatography an inseparable mixture of [C5(SiMe3)4X]Mn(CO)3 compounds, where X = H (7a), SiMe2H (7b), and SiMe3 (7c).

Addition of one equivalent of BuLi, followed by an excess of S8 produces the dithiolate [C5Cl3(SLi)2]Mn(CO)3 (3), which yields the dithiol [C5Cl3(SH)2]Mn(CO)3 (5) upon hydrolysis. The molecular structures of 2 and 5 have been determined by X-ray diffraction.
