Journal ArticleDOI

Hydration structures and energetics of phospholipid

TL;DR: In this article, the potentials of the intermolecular interaction energies of PL, Lysophosphatidyl Ethanolamine, with one Na+ ion and one water molecule were analyzed using Monte Carlo simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly Stereospecific Epimerization of α-Amino Acids: Conducted Tour Mechanism

TL;DR: The main emphasis is laid on the base-catalyzed epimerization reaction that drives the stereospecific recognition to near completion and the conducted tour mechanism is found to be the most likely candidate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical Study of the Gas Phase Sc + (NO, O2) → ScO + (N, O) Reactions

TL;DR: In this article, the potential energy surfaces concerning a moderately exoergic reaction, Sc + NO → ScO + N, and a largely exergic reaction (Sc + O2 → Sc O + O, O + N) were calculated with all-electron multiconfiguration self-consistent field and configuration interaction methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ir and NHC Dual Chiral Synergetic Catalysis: Mechanism and Stereoselectivity in γ-Butyrolactone Formation.

TL;DR: Calculated pathways agree with the experimental findings in terms of the absolute configuration, the enantiomer excess, and the different diastereomers seen with the (R)- and (S)-spiro-phosphoramidite combined with the NHC catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlling metal nanotoppings on the tip of silicide nanostructures.

TL;DR: Using the difference in surface tension between SiO2 and metal catalysts (Mn2+, Ni2+), it is shown how metals form nanoshells, nanodiscs and nanospheres at the tips of theSiO2 nanostructures of nanocones, nanorods and nanowires.
