It is generally expected that the hydrogen bond strength in a D–H•••A adduct is predicted by the difference between the proton affinities (Δ PA) of D and A, measured by the adduct stabilization, and demonstrated by the infrared (IR) redshift of the D–H bond stretching vibrational frequency. These criteria do not always yield consistent predictions, as illustrated by the hydrogen bonds formed by the E and Z OH groups of protonated carboxylic acids. The Δ PA and the stabilization of a series of hydrogen bonded adducts indicate that the E OH group forms the stronger hydrogen bonds, whereas the bond length changes and the redshift favor the Z OH group, matching the results of NBO and AIM calculations. This reflects that the thermochemistry of adduct formation is not a good measure of the hydrogen bond strength in charged adducts, and that the ionic interactions in the E and Z adducts of protonated carboxylic acids are different. The OH bond length and IR redshift afford the better measure of hydrogen bond strength.

A computational study has been performed for protonated oxygen- or nitrogen-containing heterocyclic derivatives of cyclopropane and cyclopropanone. We have searched for the most stable conformations of the protonated species using density functional theory with the B3LYP functional and the 6-31G(2df,p) basis set. More accurate enthalpy values were obtained from G4 calculations. Proton affinities and gas-phase basicities were accordingly derived.

Inventory estimation of long-lived fission products (LLFPs) in high-level radioactive wastes (HLW) from spent nuclear fuels of light water reactors is important for a safety assessment of their disposal. In order to develop an inventory estimation method of difficult-to-measure LLFPs (Se-79, Tc-99, Sn-126, and Cs-135), a parametric study was carried out by using a sophisticated burnup calculation code and data. In the parametric study, fuel specifications and irradiation conditions are changed in the conceivable range. The considered parameters are fuel assembly types (PWR / BWR), U-235 enrichment, moderator temperature, void fraction, power density, and so on. From the calculated results, we clarify the burnup characteristics of the target LLFPs and their possible ranges of generations. Finally, candidates of the key nuclide are proposed for the scaling factor method of HLW.

Due to its unique properties of dendrimers as well as with high-level groups, a special ability to carry drugs. In this study compared the interaction between the two generations of poly (amidoamine) PAMAM (G3and G5) dendrimers and the drug 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) and the drug entrapment within the structure of dendrimers the electrostatic and covalent complexation of drugs to the dendrimer surface have been studied. The use of drug-dendrimer complex enhanced drug solubility and bioavailability of the drug.
