A proton migration across a short strong hydrogen bond can be triggered by spin crossover of a remote Fe2+ cation, with the onset of a photoinduced activation energy barrier for proton motion at low temperatures.

N-(3-Chloro-2-benzo[b]thienocarbonyl)-N'-monosubstituted thiourea derivatives undergo photocyclizations with lower yields than those obtained from analogous N',N'-disubstituted derivatives. This decreased reactivity is caused by the existence of a six-membered cyclic form with the very strong hydrogen bond NH···O=C. The possibility of formation of various conformers has been found with N-(2-benzo[b]thienocarbonyl)-N'-monosubstituted thiourea derivatives as a consequence of the rotation around the C(2)-C(O) connecting line.

A computational study on the origin of the activating effect for Pd-catalyzed directed C–H activation by the concerted metalation-deprotonation (CMD) mechanism is conducted. DFT calculations indicate that strong acids can make Pd catalysts coordinate with directing groups (DGs) of the substrates more strongly and lower the C–H activation energy barrier. For the CMD mechanism, the electrophilicity of the Pd center and the basicity of the corresponding acid ligand for deprotonating the C–H bond are vital to the overall C–H activation energy barrier. Furthermore, this rule might disclose the role of some additives for C–H activation.

The crystal structure of osimertinib mesylate Form B has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data and optimized using density functional techniques. Osimertinib mesylate Form B crystallizes in space group P-1 (#2) with a = 11.42912(17), b = 11.72274(24), c = 13.32213(22) Å, α = 69.0265(5), β = 74.5914(4), γ = 66.4007(4)°, V = 1511.557(12) Å3, and Z = 2. The crystal structure is characterized by alternating layers of cation–anion and parallel stacking interactions parallel to the ab-planes. The cation is protonated at the nitrogen atom of the dimethylamino group, which forms a strong hydrogen bond between the cation and the anion. That hydrogen atom also participates in a weaker intramolecular hydrogen bond to an amino nitrogen. There are two additional N–H⋅⋅⋅O hydrogen bonds between the cation and the anion. Several C–H⋅⋅⋅O hydrogen bonds also link the cations and anions. The powder pattern has been submitted to ICDD® for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File™.

The crystal structure of rivastigmine hydrogen tartrate has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data, and optimized using density functional techniques. Rivastigmine hydrogen tartrate crystallizes in space group P21 (#4) with a = 17.538 34(5), b = 8.326 89(2), c = 7.261 11(2) Å, β = 98.7999(2)°, V = 1047.929(4) Å3, and Z = 2. The un-ionized end of the hydrogen tartrate anions forms a very strong hydrogen bond with the ionized end of another anion to form a chain. The ammonium group of the rivastigmine cation forms a strong discrete hydrogen bond with the carbonyl oxygen atom of the un-ionized end of the tartrate anion. These hydrogen bonds form a corrugated network in the bc-plane. Both hydroxyl groups of the tartrate anion form intramolecular O–H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Several C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds appear to contribute to the crystal energy. The powder pattern is included in the Powder Diffraction File™ as entry 00-064-1501.

The two-step austempering process has been reported to be an effective method to accelerate the bainitic transformation process by introducing martensite (Q-M-B). However, in this study, it was found that the Q-M-B process reduced the incubation time, but the transformation duration remained nearly unchanged. The notably reduced activation energy barrier for nucleation of bainitic ferrite on the preformed martensite should be responsible for the reduced duration time of the Q-M-B process. A process that both of the two steps were above, Ms (Q-B-B), has been demonstrated to increase transformation rate and improve the amount of bainitic ferrite, which probably results from the additional hysteresis free energy provided by the first quenching process.

Heterogeneous bubble nucleation is one of the most fundamental interfacial processes that has received broad interest from diverse fields of physics and chemistry. While most studies focused on large microbubbles, here we employed a surface plasmon resonance microscopy to measure the nucleation rate constant and activation energy barrier of single nanosized embryo vapor bubbles upon heating a flat gold film with a focused laser beam. Image analysis allowed for simultaneously determining the local temperature and local nucleation rate constant from the same batch of optical images. By analyzing the dependence of nucleation rate constant on temperature, we were able to calculate the local activation energy barrier within a submicrometer spot. Scanning the substrate further led to a nucleation rate map with a spatial resolution of 100 nm, which revealed no correlation with the local roughness. These results indicate that facet structure and surface chemistry, rather than geometrical roughness, regulated the activation energy barrier for heterogeneous nucleation of embryo nanobubbles.
