[reaction: see text] An atropisomeric receptor with "write", "save", and "erase" recognition properties is presented. The receptor adopts a complementary conformation when heating in the presence of an ethyl adenine-9-acetate guest molecule. This complementary hydrogen bonding conformation is "saved" upon cooling to room temperature due to the reestablishment of restricted rotation and is stable even upon removal of the guest. Finally, the atropisomeric receptor can be "erased" by heating in the absence of the guest.
Nanoscale vanadium phosphides can serve as new high capacity anodes in alkaline aqueous electrolytes. Competing corrosion reaction(s) are mitigated with the novel use of an anion exchange membrane providing for capacities as high as 2800 mAh g(-1) @ 100 mA g(-1) discharge rate.
[reaction: see text] Atropisomeric receptor 1 can change conformation and maintain the new conformation when heated and cooled in the presence of a guest molecule. This molecular memory can be used as a rapid method of screening potential guests. Heating atropisomeric diacid 1 with various hydrogen-bonding guests leads to a shift in the syn/anti ratio that could be easily monitored as it is stable at room temperature even in the absence of the guest molecules.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
