Interactions between excited state arenes and amines can lead to the formation of structures with distinct emission behavior. These excited state complexes or exciplexes can reduce the ability of the…
The lead optimization stage of a drug discovery program generally involves the design, synthesis and assaying of hundreds to thousands of compounds. The design phase is usually carried out via…
Self-assembly and molecular recognition are critical processes both in life and material sciences. They usually depend on strong, directional non-covalent interactions to gain specificity and to make long-range organization possible.…
Halide salts facilitate the oxidative addition of organic halides to Pd(0). This phenomenon originates from a combina-tion of anionic, cationic and Pd-Pd cooperative effects. Exhaustive computational exploration at the DFT…
Structure-function relation is a 155 year old concept to explain the dependence of biological activity of a drug molecule on its structure put forward by Crum-Brown and Fraser*. Similar line…
