Using high throughput screening-compatible assays for superoxide and hydrogen peroxide, we identified potential inhibitors of the NADPH oxidase (Nox2) isoform from a small library of bioactive compounds. By using multiple probes (hydroethidine, hydropropidine, Amplex Red, and coumarin boronate) with well defined redox chemistry that form highly diagnostic marker products upon reaction with superoxide (O 2 . ),

Herein, we report a semiconductive, proton-conductive, microporous hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) derived from phenylphosphonic acid and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[pphenylphosphonic acid] porphyrin (GTUB5). The structure of GTUB5 was characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction. A narrow band gap of 1.56 eV was extracted from a UV-Vis spectrum of pure GTUB5 crystals, in excellent agreement with the 1.65 eV band gap obtained from DFT calculations. The same band gap was also measured for GTUB5 in DMSO. The proton conductivity of GTUB5 was measured to be 3.00 × 10 −6 S cm −1 at 75°C and 75% relative humidity. The surface area was estimated to be 422 m 2 g −1 from grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations. XRD showed that GTUB5 is thermally stable under relative humidities of up to 90% at 90°C. These findings pave the way for a new family of organic, microporous, and semiconducting materials with high surface areas and high thermal stabilities.
The concept of octupolar molecules has considerably enlarged the engineering of second-order nonlinear optical materials by giving access to 2D and 3D architectures. However, if the archetype of octupolar symmetry is a cube with alternating donor and acceptor groups at the corners, no translation of this ideal structure into a real molecule has been realized to date. This may be achieved by designing a bis(phthalocyaninato)lutetium(III) double-decker complex with a crosswise ABAB phthalocyanine bearing alternating electron-donor and electron-acceptor groups. In this communication, we present the first step toward this goal with the synthesis, crystal structure determination, and measurement of the molecular first-order hyperpolarizability β by harmonic light diffusion, of an original lutetium(III) sandwich complex displaying the required ABAB-type alternation for one face of the cube. This structure is characterized by an intense absorption in the near-IR due to an intervalence transition and exhibits the highest quadratic hyperpolarizability ever reported for an octupolar molecule, √<β(2)(HLS)> = 5750 × 10(-30) esu.
Ao ne-dimensional nanotubularm etal-organic framework (MOF) [Ni(Cu-H 4 TPPA)]•2 (CH 3) 2 NH 2 + (H 8 TPPA = 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[p-phenylphosphonic acid] porphyrin) constructed by using the arylphosphonic acid H 8 TPPAi s reported. The structure of this MOF,k nown as GTUB-4, was solved by using single-crystal X-ray diffractiona nd its geometrica ccessible surfacea rea was calculated to be 1102 m 2 g À1 ,m aking it the phosphonate MOF with the highest reporteds urface area. Due to the extended conjugation of its porphyrin core, GTUB-4 possesses narrow indirect and direct bandgaps (1.9 eV and 2.16 eV,r espectively) in the semiconductor regime. Thermogravimetric analysis suggests that GTUB-4 is thermally stable up to 400 8C. Owing to its high surface area, low bandgap, and high thermal stability, GTUB-4 could find applications as electrodes in supercapacitors. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are microporous materials that contain well-defined micropores composed of organic and inorganic surfaces. [1-9] They have been used in applications ranging from gas adsorption, sequestration of greenhouse gases, [10, 11] catalysis, [12, 13] magnetism, [14-17] drug delivery, [18, 19] [c] K.

The (15-oxo-3,7,11-triazadispiro[5.1.5.3]hexadec-7-yl)oxidanyl, a bis-spiropiperidinium nitroxide derived from TEMPONE, can be included in cucurbit[7]uril to form a strong (K(a)∼ 2 × 10(5) M(-1)) CB[7]@bPTO complex. EPR and MS spectra, DFT calculations, and unparalleled increased resistance (a factor of ∼10(3)) toward ascorbic acid reduction show evidence of deep inclusion of bPTO inside CB[7]. The unusual shape of the CB[7]@bPTO EPR spectrum can be explained by an anisotropic Brownian rotational diffusion, the global tumbling of the complex being slower than rotation of bPTO around its "long molecular axis" inside CB[7]. The CB[7] (stator) with the encapsulated bPTO (rotator) behaves as a supramolecular paramagnetic rotor with increased rotational speed of the rotator that has great potential for advanced nanoscale machines requiring wheels such as cucurbiturils with virtually no friction between the wheel and the axle for optimum wheel rotation (i.e. nanopulleys and nanocars).
