Photocatalytic Water Reduction with Copper‐Based Photosensitizers: A Noble‐Metal‐Free System

TL;DR: Of noble descent: a fully noble-metal-free system for the photocatalytic reduction of water at room temperature has been developed that consists of Cu(I) complexes as photosensitizers and [Fe(3)(CO)(12)] as the water-reduction catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visible-to-NIR-Light Activated Release: From Small Molecules to Nanomaterials.

TL;DR: This review comprehensively covers organic and transition metal-containing photoactivatable compounds (complexes) that absorb in the visible- and NIR-range to release various leaving groups and gasotransmitters (carbon monoxide, nitric oxide, and hydrogen sulfide).
Journal ArticleDOI

New Ru(II) complexes for dual photoreactivity: ligand exchange and (1)O2 generation.

TL;DR: Dual activity via ligand dissociation and (1)O2 production can be achieved by careful selection of the ligand set to tune the excited-state dynamics, which can be applied to the use of Ru(II)-polypyridyl compounds in a variety of applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, characterization, and biological evaluation of new Ru(II) polypyridyl photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy.

TL;DR: Two Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes showed significant aPDT activity and phototoxicity was determined against the Gram-(+) Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-(-) Escherichia coli for potential antimicrobial PDT (aPDT) applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photoactivated in Vitro Anticancer Activity of Rhenium(I) Tricarbonyl Complexes Bearing Water-Soluble Phosphines

TL;DR: Data indicate that the phototoxic response may result from the release of both CO and the rhenium-containing photoproduct, as well as the production of 1O2.

Density‐functional thermochemistry. III. The role of exact exchange

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-empirical exchange correlation functional with local spin density, gradient, and exact exchange terms was proposed. But this functional performed significantly better than previous functionals with gradient corrections only, and fits experimental atomization energies with an impressively small average absolute deviation of 2.4 kcal/mol.

Rapid colorimetric assay for cellular growth and survival: Application to proliferation and cytotoxicity assays

TL;DR: A tetrazolium salt has been used to develop a quantitative colorimetric assay for mammalian cell survival and proliferation and is used to measure proliferative lymphokines, mitogen stimulations and complement-mediated lysis.

General atomic and molecular electronic structure system

TL;DR: A description of the ab initio quantum chemistry package GAMESS, which can be treated with wave functions ranging from the simplest closed‐shell case up to a general MCSCF case, permitting calculations at the necessary level of sophistication.

Ab initio effective core potentials for molecular calculations. Potentials for the transition metal atoms Sc to Hg

TL;DR: In this article, the Coulomb, exchange, and core-orthogonality effects of the chemically inert core electron in the transition metal atoms Sc to Hg have been replaced by the ab initio effective core potentials (ECP).
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimization of parameters for semiempirical methods I. Method

TL;DR: In this paper, a new method for obtaining optimized parameters for semi-empirical methods has been developed and applied to the modified neglect of diatomic overlap (MNDO) method.
