I study dynamical instabilities in ${\mathrm{Ta}}_{2}{\mathrm{NiSe}}_{5}$ using density functional theory based calculations. The calculated phonon dispersions show two unstable optical branches. All the acoustic branches are stable, which shows that an elastic instability is not the primary cause of the experimentall…

Quintulene, a non-graphitic cycloarene with fivefold symmetry, has remained synthetically elusive due to its high molecular strain originating from its curved structure. Here we report the construction of extended quintulene, which was unambiguously characterized by mass and NMR spectroscopy. The extended quintulene r…

Abstract Mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylases (MDDs) catalyze the ATP-dependent-Mg 2+ -decarboxylation of mevalonate-5-diphosphate (MVAPP) to produce isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP), which is essential in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes for polyisoprenoid synthesis. The substrates, MVAPP and ATP, have been shown to bin…
