Abstract:
8-Oxoguanine (8-oxoG), a critical mutagenic DNA lesion induced by reactive oxy-gen species, gives rise to a G·C→T·A transversion during replication and thereby must be repaired. The effects of explicit and implicit solvent molecules on the hydrolysis cleavage of N-Glycosidic bond in 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) have been systematically clarified in the present work based upon two types of computational models. Detailed potential energy surface (PES) scans and full unconstraint optimizations for all the representative points on PESs were carried out at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d) level of theory. The effect of implicit solvent was tested by single-point calculation at the SCRF/IEF-PCM model. The results illustrate that the direct hydrolysis model involving one explicit water molecule can't provide a complete depiction of the hydrolysis process of 8-oxo-dG, attributed to the insufficiency of nucleophile activation and leaving group stabilization. The expansion hydrolysis model involving four explicit water molecules, however, facilitates discrete proton transfer and therefore produces smooth reaction surfaces for both the dissociative (SN1) and concerted (SN2) pathways. The presence of the implicit solvent substantially lowers all activation energies and the SN1 process is more favorable than the SN2 process. The data and insights present here agree well with the experimental results and have given out a baseline for the enzymatic deglycosylation reaction of 8-oxo-dG.

Abstract:
Single atom chemically doped graphene has been theoretically studied by density functional theory. The largest band gap, 0.62 eV, appears in arsenic atom doped graphene, then 0.60 eV comes by the tin atom, whose deformations can neither be ignored. It is also found that oxygen and iron single atom embedded graphene can open band gap by 0.52 and 0.54 eV, respectively. Moreover, doping O atom shows little distortion and high stability by charge redistribution. The band gap of Fe doped graphene is opened by orbital hybridization. The other heteroatom doped results are a little inferior to them.

Abstract:
The electronic structures and optical properties of Ⅱ-Ⅲ2-VI4 (Ⅱ=Zn, Cd; Ⅲ=In; VI=Se, Te) compounds are studied by the density functional theory (DFT) using the Vienna ab initio simulation package (VASP). Geometrical optimization of the unit cell is in good agreement with the experimental data. Our calculations show that the valence band maximum (VBM) and conduction band minimum (CBM) are located at G resulting in a direct energy gap. The optical properties are analyzed, and the independent second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients are determined. By an analysis of the band structure, we can get that SHG response of the system can be attributed to the transitions from the bands near the top of valence band that are derived from the Se/Te p states to the unoccupied bands contributed by the p states of In atoms.

Abstract:
Two heterocyclic Schiff bases were synthesized via the condensation reactions of primary amines with carbonyl compounds. 2-[(4-pyridylmethylene)-amino] phenol (compound 1) was synthesized by the interaction of 4-pyridinecarboxaldehyde with o-aminophenol in ethanol solvent; N,N'-bis(3-(furan-2-yl)allylidene)benzene-1,4-diamin (compound 2) was synthesized by the interaction of 3-(2-furyl)acrolein with p-phenylenediamine in ethanol medium. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, MS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 (C12H10N2O) crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a=7.0771(7), b=7.2820(7), c=19.849(2), β=96.3390(10)°, V=1016.66(17) Å3, Z=4, Mr=198.22, Dc=1.295 g/cm3, F(000)=416, GOOF=1.060, μ=0.085 mm-1, the final R=0.0371 and wR=0.0929 for 1497 observed reflections with I>2σ(I). Compound 2 (C20H16N2O2) crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Fdd2 with a=26.344(15), b=48.50(3), c=5.293(3), V=6764(7) Å3, Z=16, Mr=316.35, Dc=1.243 g/cm3, F(000)=2656, GOOF=1.043, μ=0.081 mm-1, the final R=0.0526 and wR=0.1267 for 2059 observed reflections with I>2σ(I). 1 and 2 molecules are connected through hydrogen bonds to generate a 2D network and a 1D chain structure, respectively. The preliminary antibacterial activity results showed that the title compounds display excellent antibacterial activities to Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis.

Due to the intermolecular C-H…O interactions, two monomeric molecular clips dimerize as a dimeric building block in the crystalline state. Those building blocks form tape-like supramolecular polymers driven by intermolecular C-H…N interactions and water molecules which stabilized in the packing structure served as hydrogen-bonding donors.

Abstract:
The novel alkaline metal complex Ca(BPDCH)2 (1, BPDCH2=2,2'-bipyri-dine-5,5'-dicarboxylic acid) has been synthesized by the hydrothermal reaction of Ca(NO3)2·4H2O with 2,2'-bipyridine-5,5'-dicarboxylic acid. The molecular and crystal structures of complex 1 have firstly been characterized by FTIR, elemental analysis, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The 3D MOF structure of complex 1 was interpreted by the versatile binding modes-the intermolecular hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking interactions of 2,2'-bipyridine-5,5'-dicarboxylic acid ligand. The analysis results show complex 1 belongs to a coordination polymer with 3D MOF structure. The results of thermogravimetric analysis and solubility demonstrate complex 1 is a thermostable compound and does not dissolve in water and traditional organic solvents.

Abstract:
A new Zn-citrate coordination complex {K[Zn(C6H5O7)(H2O)]}n (1) was synthesi-zed via hydrothermal reaction. In the crystal structure of complex 1, each citrate serves as the quadricdentate ligand coordinating to three Zn(Ⅱ) ions, forming a zigzag chain, and such chains are further connected into a 3D network by the K+ linkers. Crystal data for complex 1: triclinic, space group P1, a=7.3487(9), b=7.5397(6), c=9.6772(8) Å, α=76.894(8), β=68.260(10), γ=65.155(10)°, V=450.34(7) Å3 and Z=2.

This complex was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. It is the first complex synthesized by coordinating with TPOM and catenulate aliphatic polycarboxylate acid ligands. The structural analyses show that the complex is a 2-fold interpenetrating 3D architecture.

Abstract:
Two new dicopper(Ⅱ) complexes [Cu2L(OAc)2](ClO4)·H2O (1) and [Cu2L(BPP)2]-(ClO4) (2) using an asymmetric dinucleating ligand HL and auxiliary ligands such as acetate (OAc) and bisphenyl phosphate (BPP) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 crystallizes as blue single crystals that belong to the triclinic crystal system and P1 space group, while complex 2 crystallizes in a monoclinic P21/c space group. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the two copper ions in complexes 1 and 2 reside within the adjacent ligand compartments and are bridged by the endogenous phenoxo-O from ligand L and the introduction of two desired exogenous carboxylates or phosphates in the bidentate μ-1,3-bridged mode. The coordination geometries of Cu(1) and Cu(2) are both distorted square pyramids.

The structure belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P21/n with Z=4, a=7.181(3), b=13.059(5) and c=9.730 (4) Å. It is described as a three-dimensional (3D) architecture made up of [P4O12]4- anionic spiral chains and HoO8 polyhedra by corner-sharing. The 8-coordinated sodium atoms are located in infinite tunnels. The results of EDX and IR spectrum are in good agreement with the crystallographic analysis.

A new cobalt complex Co(C10H8N2)(H2O)3[C9H11O2(COO)] with methy-5-norbor-nene-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride acid (MNA) and 2,2'-bipyridine as ligands has been synthesized in the mixed solvents of ethanol and water. It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/c with a=13.0430(13), b=21.014(2), c=7.5151(7) Å, β=102.319(2)°, V=2012.4(3) Å3, Dc=1.529 g/cm3, Z=4, F(000)=964, GOOF=1.051, the final R=0.0457 and wR=0.0974.

Abstract:
Lotus seed starch (15%, w/w) was subjected to ultra-high pressure (UHP) at 500 MPa for 10~60 min. The effects of UHP on the structural, pasting, and thermal properties of starch were investigated using solid-state 13C CP/MAS NMR, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), HPSEC-MALLS-RI, and a rapid visco analyzer. The 13C CP/MAS NMR results revealed a reduction in the relative crystallinity and peak intensity of the crystalline state with increasing the UHP time. The molecular weight of native starch was 1.433×107 Da, which was higher than that of the UHP-treated starch. Viscograms of UHP-treated starch revealed an increase in paste viscosity, peak time, and pasting temperature and a reduction in breakdown and setback viscosity compared to the native starch. Furthermore, the DSC results showed a reduction in gelatinization temperature and gelatinization enthalpy with increasing the UHP time.
