Sodium-pumping NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Na⁺-NQR) is an important component of the aerobic respiratory chain of Vibrio cholerae. It oxidizes NADH, reduces ubiquinone, and uses the free energy of this redox reaction to move sodium across the ce...

Aluminum nitride (AlN) possesses an exceptional combination of high thermal conductivity and an ultra-wide band gap, rendering it highly attractive for electronic packaging and semiconductor substrate applications. In this study, surface chemical mod...

The current–voltage characteristics (IVCs) of anodic TiO₂ films in a thin-film structure (Carbon paste/TiO₂/Ti/Al) were investigated in the temperature range of T = 80–300 K with bias voltages from −0.5 V to +0.5 V. Anodic oxide fil...

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations elucidate the mechanism of diastereoselective cyclization of 2-picoline with 1,5-hexadiene catalyzed by a cationic half-sandwich scandium complex. The catalytic cycle proceeds through four key stages: form...

Silica-based sorbents covalently modified with polyhedral boron clusters represent a promising platform for highly selective separation materials, yet robust and synthetically accessible immobilization protocols remain underdeveloped. In this work, n...

Coordination complexes play a crucial role in modern research. 4-benzopyranone-2-carboxylic acid is a fascinating class of molecules with numerous applications, including the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and valuable chiral compounds. Antibacterial a...

This study examines the influence of sintering temperature on the structural and transport properties of GdBa₂Cu₃O₇ (Gd123) superconductors prepared from nano-sized precursors via the co-precipitation method. The metal-oxalate precursor (average part...

Chromium complexes with triamidoamine derivatives bearing bulky substituents at the terminal positions of the ligands, tris(2-(3-pentylamino)ethyl)amine (H₃L^Pen) and tris(2-dicyclohexylmethylaminoethyl)amine (H₃L^Cy), are prepared: [{Cr(L^Pen)}₂(μ-N...

9,10-Disila-9,10-dihydroanthracenes have attracted significant attention due to their unique electronic structures, characterized by an extended π-system facilitated by σ-π conjugation. Here, we report the synthesis of 9,10-bis(p-methoxyp...

Titanium compounds are an integral component for paint pigments, food additives (E171), catalysts, precursors for resistant structural materials, medicine, and water, and air purification and disinfection processes. A new and rather promising trend f...
