Herein, we report the Ca@Pb cluster, an all-main-group-metal endofullerene possessing the highly symmetric icosahedral () Platonic solid structure. The endohedral environment endows the Ca atom with concrete transition-metal-like bonding behaviors,...

Achieving a planar hypercoordinate arrangement of s-block metals through covalent bonding with ligands is challenging due to the strong ionicity involved. Herein, we report the first case of a neutral...

Atherosclerosis is a major cause of death and disability in cardiovascular disease. Atherosclerosis associated with lipid accumulation and chronic inflammation leads to plaques formation in arterial walls and luminal stenosis...

In designing three-dimensional (3-D) molecular stars, it is very difficult to enhance the molecular rigidity through forming the covalent bonds between the axial and equatorial groups because corresponding axial groups...

We predicted the stable alkaline earth complexes M(Cp)3- (M = Ca, Sr, Ba; Cp = cyclopentadienyl), where the M centers were in their stable +2 oxidation state and mimicked the...

Computational design has played an important role in planar hyper-coordinate carbon (phC) chemistry. However, none of numerous computationally predicted phC species were subsequently successfully synthesized in the condensed phase, perhaps...

Toxicokinetic characteristics of naringin and its metabolite naringenin were investigated in beagle dogs after oral administration of naringin at the doses of 20, 100, or 500 mg/kg/day in a repeated-dose...
