    Sound Body, Sound Mind—The Impact of the Mental Health Parity Act of 2008

    On October 3, 2008, in response to bank and lending house failures and the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, President Bush signed into law the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, more commonly known as the “bailout bill.” As funds from the financial relief program created by the bailout bill, the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP), are spent to slowly reverse the economic recession, another positive effect of the bailout bill has already taken hold in an area having nothing to do with financial markets—health insurance coverage for Americans suffering from mental illness. This is because, buried within the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act, is the Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Act of 2008 (the “2008 Act”)—legislation that requires parity in insurance coverage for physical and mental illness.\u

    A chiral self-sorting photoresponsive coordination cage based on overcrowded alkenes

    In recent years, increasing efforts have been devoted to designing new functional stimuli-responsive supramolecular assemblies. Here, we present three isomeric supramolecular coordination complexes consisting of a Pd2L4 stoichiometry. As shown by NMR, CD and X-ray studies, as well as DFT calculations, these complexes form cage-like structures by chiral self-sorting. Photochromic ligands derived from first generation molecular motors enable light-driven interconversion between the three isomers. Two of the isomers were able to form host–guest complexes opening up new prospects toward stimuli-controlled substrate binding and release.Supramolecular & Biomaterials Chemistr

    Light-Gated Rotation in a Molecular Motor Functionalized with a Dithienylethene Switch

    Get PDF
    A multiphotochromic hybrid system is presented in which a light-driven overcrowded alkene-based molecular rotary motor is connected to a dithienylethene photoswitch. Ring closing of the dithienylethene moiety, using an irradiation wavelength different from the wavelength applied to operate the molecular motor, results in inhibition of the rotary motion as is demonstrated by detailed H-1-NMR and UV/Vis experiments. For the first time, a light-gated molecular motor is thus obtained. Furthermore, the excitation wavelength of the molecular motor is red-shifted from the UV into the visible-light region upon attachment of the dithienylethene switch
