With the goal of creating a molecular switch, the hydrogen-bonded diphenylacetylene structure has been modified such that an equilibrium now exists between two intramolecular H-bonded states. Through X-ray crystallography and (1)H NMR analysis it is shown that this equilibrium can be biased in a predictable manner by…

The direct infusion of macromolecules into defect sites generally does not impart adequate physiological responses. Without the protection of delivery systems, inductive molecules may likely redistribute away from their desired locale and are vulnerable to degradation. In order to achieve efficacy, large doses supplie…
