Vibrational Circular Dichroism of a Chiral Triplet Nitrene Investigated Under Matrix-Isolation Conditions in Parahydrogen

 

Chem. Eur. J.: Joint publication Prof. C. Merten and Prof. W. Sander.

Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of chiral high-spin organic radicals are expected to show a strong intensity enhancement and are thought to be difficult to predict using state-of-the-art theoretical methods. Herein we show that the chiral triplet nitrene obtained from photochemical cleavage of N2 from enantiopure…

COVER PICTURE: Morphological Transformations of SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Protein Biocondensates Mediated by Antimicrobial Peptides

Chem. Eur. J.: RESOLV members, Prof. Dr. Roland Winter and Prof. Dr. Jörg Tatzelt unveil an AMP-Based Strategy to Disrupt SARS-CoV-2 Replication in this article. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) may offer a novel antiviral approach by interfering with key viral protein condensates, according to their findings. The study reveals how three AMPs, including LL–III, CrACP1, and GKY20, interfere with…
