Disaccharides 1-3 corresponding to the antigenic determinants of Salmonella serotypes A, B, and D1 were synthesized in a form suited for use in biosensors. The disaccharide determinants each contain a unique 3,6-dideoxyhexose, namely abequose (3,6-dideoxy-D-xylo-hexose), paratose (3,6-dideoxy-D-ribohexose), and tyvelose (3,6-dideoxy-D-arabino-hexose), are α-linked to the 3-position of D-mannopyranose. The disaccharides were further derivatized with a linear aglycon that has a terminal amino group, and can be readily coupled to pertinent chains carrying a terminal thiol for the construction of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). Efficient routes that employed a single 3,6-dideoxygenation step were developed for the synthesis of paratoside 15 and tyveloside 22.Key words: Salmonella O-antigens, lipopolysaccharide, abequose, paratose, tyvelose, 3,6-dideoxyhexose, deoxygenation, glycoside tethers, immobilization via pentenyl glycosides.

<div><div><div><p>A new reactive force field based on the ReaxFF formalism is effectively parametrized against an extended training set of quantum chemistry data (containing more than 120 different structures) to describe accurately silver- and silver-thiolate systems. The results obtained with this novel representation demonstrate that the novel ReaxFF paradigm is a powerful methodology to reproduce more appropriately average geometric and energetic properties of metal clusters and slabs when compared to the earlier ReaxFF parametrizations dealing with silver and gold. ReaxFF cannot describe adequately specific geometrical features such as the observed shorter distances between the under-coordinated atoms at the cluster edges. Geometric and energetic properties of thiolates adsorbed on a silver Ag20 pyramid are correctly represented by the new ReaxFF and compared with results for gold. The simulation of self-assembled monolayers of thiolates on a silver (111) surface does not indicate the formation of staples in contrast to the results for gold-thiolate systems.</p></div></div></div>

This paper describes the reconfiguration of molecular tunneling junctions during operation via the self-assembly of bilayers of glycol ethers. We use well-established functional groups to modulate the magnitude and direction of rectification in assembled tunneling junctions by exposing them to solutions containing different glycol ethers. Variable-temperature measurements establish that rectification occurs by a bias-dependent tunneling-hopping mechanism and that glycol ethers, beside being an unusually efficient tunneling medium, behave identically to alkanes. We fabricated memory bits from crossbar junctions prepared by injecting eutectic Ga-In into microfluidic channels. Two 8-bit registers were able to perform logical AND operations on bit strings encoded into chemical packets as microfluidic droplets that alter the composition of the crossbar junctions through self-assembly to effect memristor-like properties. This proof of concept work demonstrates the potential for fieldable molecular-electronic devices based on tunneling junctions of self-assembled monolayers and bilayers.
