IVSPlat 1.0: an integrated virtual screening platform with a molecular graphical interface

Background  

The virtual screening (VS) of lead compounds using molecular docking and pharmacophore detection is now an important tool in drug discovery. VS tasks typically require a combination of several software tools and a molecular graphics system. Thus, the integration of all the requisite tools in a single operating environment could reduce the complexity of running VS experiments. However, only a few freely available integrated software platforms have been developed.

Chemical effects in SERS of pyrazine adsorbed on Au-Pd bimetallic nanoparticles: a theoretical investigation

Chemical enhancement in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of pyrazine adsorbed on Au-Pd nanoclusters is investigated by using density functional theory. Changing Pd content in the bimetallic clusters enables modulation of the direct chemical interactions between the pyrazine and the clusters. The magnitude of chemical enhancement is correlated well with the induced polarizability for the complexes with low Pd content, which fails for the complexes with high Pd content. Furthermore, the dependence of chemical enhancement on cluster size and coupling is also described by the induced polarizability. Additionally, the chemical enhancement in the cluster-molecule-cluster junction is found to account for as much as 10(3), which suggests that a chemical mechanism might be more important than previously believed, in particular for Au-Pd bimetallic nanoparticle aggregates.     

Supported Pd-Cu bimetallic nanoparticles that have high activity for the electrochemical oxidation of methanol

Monodisperse bimetallic Pd-Cu nanoparticles with controllable size and composition were synthesized by a one-step multiphase ethylene glycol (EG) method. Adjusting the stoichiometric ratio of the Pd and Cu precursors afforded nanoparticles with different compositions, such as Pd(85)-Cu(15), Pd(56)-Cu(44), and Pd(39)-Cu(61). The nanoparticles were separated from the solution mixture by extraction with non-polar solvents, such as n-hexane. Monodisperse bimetallic Pd-Cu nanoparticles with narrow size-distribution were obtained without the need for a size-selection process. Capping ligands that were bound to the surface of the particles were removed through heat treatment when the as-prepared nanoparticles were loaded onto a Vulcan XC-72 carbon support. Supported bimetallic Pd-Cu nanoparticles showed enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards methanol oxidation compared with supported Pd nanoparticles that were fabricated according to the same EG method. For a bimetallic Pd-Cu catalyst that contained 15?% Cu, the activity was even comparable to the state-of-the-art commercially available Pt/C catalysts. A STEM-HAADF study indicated that the formation of random solid-solution alloy structures in the bimetallic Pd(85)-Cu(15)/C catalysts played a key role in improving the electrochemical activity.     

Construction of aromatic [5,5] spiroketals via hypoiodite-catalyzed etherification combined in relay cascades

An approach is developed for the synthesis of bisbenzannelated spiro[5,5]ketals via a catalytic relay reaction cascade involving a new cyclo-etherification, which is prompted by fluoride and catalyzed by the hypoiodite species generated in situ from irradiative aerobic oxidation of an iodide ion formed in the former step of the reaction cascade.     

Ni-Cu/Al_2O_3催化剂上顺酐液相选择加氢制丁二酸酐反应性能

以Al2O3为载体,采用等体积浸渍法制备了一系列Ni-Cu/Al2O3催化剂,用于顺酐液相加氢反应,并结合低温N2物理吸-脱附、H2程序升温还原、H2程序升温脱附、X射线衍射、CO程序升温表面反应等表征结果,详细考察了催化剂中Cu含量对其催化性能的影响.结果表明,Cu的引入提高了活性组分Ni的分散度,促进了催化剂上C=C的加氢活性;同时,由于Ni-Cu双金属间的相互作用,明显抑制了催化剂表面C=O的加氢.当Cu含量为7%时,催化剂上顺酐加氢定向合成丁二酸酐的活性最高.在210oC,H2压力5.0MPa的条件下反应40min时,顺酐转化率与丁二酸酐选择性均达100%.
