We have engineered the molecular structure of dendrimers/dendrons to provide the first mechanistic study on the structure–property relationships of macromolecular antiscalants based on which an optimum structure has been developed to prevail the performance of the most efficient industrial scale inhibitors.

<p>Recognizing substructures and their relations embedded in a molecular structure representation is a key process for <a></a><a>structure-activity</a> or structure-property relationship (SAR/SPR) studies. A molecular structure can be either explicitly represented as a connection table (CT) or linear notation, such as SMILES, which is a language describing the connectivity of atoms in the molecular structure. Conventional SAR/SPR approaches rely on partitioning the CT into a set of predefined substructures as structural descriptors. In this work, we propose a new method to identifying SAR/SPR through linear notation (for example, SMILES) syntax analysis with self-attention mechanism, an interpretable deep learning architecture. The method has been evaluated by predicting chemical property, toxicology, and bioactivity from experimental data sets. Our results demonstrate that the method yields superior performance comparing with state-of-art methods. Moreover, the method can produce chemically interpretable results, which can be used for a chemist to design, and synthesize the activity/property improved compounds.</p>

The rational design and preparation of three A2B type Co(III)triarylcorroles with push- and pull-substituents are reported. The structure-property relationships were identified by comparing their optically spectroscopic and electrochemical properties to trends predicted in DFT and TD-DFT calculations. The results demonstrate that the Co(III)triarylcorroles are highly efficient catalysts for electrocatalyzed hydrogen evolutions (HERs) and oxygen reductions (ORRs), and that their reactivity can be modulated by changing the meso-B-substituent of the Co(III)Corroles.

Exploring the structure-property relationships is a fundamental but significant work for the design of new molecular. Rationaly designing of electrochromic materials that can switch rapidly and durably requires sophisticated understanding of the correlations between molecular structure and the performance. This work presents four electro-polymerizable metallosupramolecular coordinations self-assembled from triphenylamine-based terpyridine ligands and metal ions (Fe2+, Ru2+). The polymerized metal complexes can exhibit reversible change of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) absorption intensity. Along with the increase of voltage, the intensity of MLCT absorption peaks gradually reduced to disappear. Structure/performance correlations in electrochromic performance, especially the influence of different ligands and metal ions upon the coloration efficiency have been discussed.
