  • A Two-Step Graph Convolutional Decoder for Molecule Generation
    A Two-Step Graph Convolutional Decoder for Molecule Generation Xavier Bresson Thomas Laurent School of Computer Science and Engineering Department of Mathematics NTU, Singapore Loyola Marymount University [email protected] [email protected] Abstract We propose a simple auto-encoder framework for molecule generation. The molec- ular graph is first encoded into a continuous latent representation z, which is then decoded back to a molecule. The encoding process is easy, but the decoding pro- cess remains challenging. In this work, we introduce a simple two-step decoding process. In a first step, a fully connected neural network uses the latent vector z to produce a molecular formula, for example CO2 (one carbon and two oxygen atoms). In a second step, a graph convolutional neural network uses the same latent vector z to place bonds between the atoms that were produced in the first step (for example a double bond will be placed between the carbon and each of the oxygens). This two-step process, in which a bag of atoms is first generated, and then assembled, provides a simple framework that allows us to develop an efficient molecule auto-encoder. Numerical experiments on basic tasks such as novelty, uniqueness, validity and optimized chemical property for the 250k ZINC molecules demonstrate the performances of the proposed system. Particularly, we achieve the highest reconstruction rate of 90.5%, improving the previous rate of 76.7%. We also report the best property improvement results when optimization is constrained by the molecular distance between the original and generated molecules. 1 Introduction A fundamental problem in drug discovery and material science is to design molecules with arbitrary optimized chemical properties.

  • Carbon Dioxide - Wikipedia
    5/20/2020 Carbon dioxide - Wikipedia Carbon dioxide Carbon dioxide (chemical formula CO2) is a colorless gas with Carbon dioxide a density about 60% higher than that of dry air. Carbon dioxide consists of a carbon atom covalently double bonded to two oxygen atoms. It occurs naturally in Earth's atmosphere as a trace gas. The current concentration is about 0.04% (412 ppm) by volume, having risen from pre-industrial levels of 280 ppm.[8] Natural sources include volcanoes, hot springs and geysers, and it is freed from carbonate rocks by dissolution in water and acids. Because carbon dioxide is soluble in water, it occurs naturally in groundwater, rivers and lakes, ice caps, glaciers and seawater. It is present in deposits of petroleum and natural gas. Carbon dioxide is odorless at normally encountered concentrations, but at high concentrations, it has a sharp and acidic odor.[1] At such Names concentrations it generates the taste of soda water in the Other names [9] mouth. Carbonic acid gas As the source of available carbon in the carbon cycle, atmospheric Carbonic anhydride carbon dioxide is the primary carbon source for life on Earth and Carbonic oxide its concentration in Earth's pre-industrial atmosphere since late Carbon oxide in the Precambrian has been regulated by photosynthetic organisms and geological phenomena. Plants, algae and Carbon(IV) oxide cyanobacteria use light energy to photosynthesize carbohydrate Dry ice (solid phase) from carbon dioxide and water, with oxygen produced as a waste Identifiers product.[10] CAS Number 124-38-9 (http://ww w.commonchemistr CO2 is produced by all aerobic organisms when they metabolize carbohydrates and lipids to produce energy by respiration.[11] It is y.org/ChemicalDeta returned to water via the gills of fish and to the air via the lungs of il.aspx?ref=124-38- air-breathing land animals, including humans.

Theoretical studies of additional reactions in the O3-initiated oxidation of C3O2 As discussed in the main text, the primary ozonide (POZ) formed after O3 addition on carbon suboxide was found to decompose either to an OOCCO Criegee intermediate + CO2, or to a cyclic CO2 dimer INT1 + CO. The transition state for this later channel is intriguing, as its geometry resembles that expected for the formation of the OOCO Criegee intermediate (INT2, Figure S1) with coproduct moiety O=C=C=O readily falling apart to 2 CO. Minimum energy pathway (IRC) calculations, however, indicate that during the dissociation process, only one CO is formed, while the remaining OC(OO)CO moiety rearranges to INT1. Figure S2 shows an animation of this process. It is currently not clear if this reaction path is affected by the methodology used; conceivably, the post-TS pathway bifurcates towards the formation of the OOCO (INT2) carbonyl oxide. We have additionally characterized a Criegee intermediate INT3, where the cyclization process forms a ring structure with the C-O moiety rather than the C-O-O moiety of the original POZ cyclic trioxilane decomposition.

  • COVALENT COMPOUNDS Created By: Julio Cesar Torres Orozco
    NOMENCLATURE IONIC-COVALENT COMPOUNDS Created by: Julio Cesar Torres Orozco Background: Before there was an established naming (nomenclature) system for chemical compounds, chemists assigned compounds a specific name for reference. Table salt (NaCl), water (H2O) and ammonia (NH3) are some of the most common examples of this. There are two types of chemical compounds that are important in general chemistry: Ionic and Covalent compounds. This handout will aim to explain the nomenclature system there exists for these types of compounds. Ionic compounds: METAL + NON-METAL RULES: ! Name of ionic compounds is composed of the name of the positive ion (from the metal) and the name of the negative ion. Examples: NaBr Sodium bromide MgCl2 Magnesium chloride (NH4)2SO4 Ammonium sulfate ! It is important that we learn how to name monoatomic positive ions. These are some examples: Na+ sodium Zn2+ zinc Ca2+ calcium H+ hydrogen K+ potassium Sr2+ strontium ! When there are positive ions that have more than one oxidation state (number), as in the case of transition metals, we would have to indicate the charge of the ion in Roman numeral in parentheses (I,II,III,IV,V,VI,VI) after the name of the specific element. Examples: Fe2+ iron(II) Fe3+ iron (III) Sn2+ tin(II) Sn4+ tin(IV) Cu+ copper(I) Cu2+ copper(II) NOMENCLATURE IONIC-COVALENT COMPOUNDS Created by: Julio Cesar Torres Orozco ! Positive polyatomic ions have common names ending in suffix -onium Examples: + H3O Hydronium + NH4 Ammonium Now that we have covered positive monoatomic and polyatomic ions, let us look at the naming of negative ions.

  • Electron Irradiation of Carbon Dioxide-Carbon Disulphide Ice Analog and Its Implication on the Identification of Carbon Disulphide on Moon
    J. Chem. Sci. Vol. 128, No. 1, January 2016, pp. 159–164. c Indian Academy of Sciences. DOI 10.1007/s12039-015-0996-6 Electron irradiation of carbon dioxide-carbon disulphide ice analog and its implication on the identification of carbon disulphide on Moon B SIVARAMAN∗ Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics Division, Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad 380 009, India e-mail: [email protected] MS received 25 September 2014; revised 19 August 2015; accepted 7 September 2015 Abstract. Carbon dioxide (CO2) and carbon disulphide (CS2) molecular ice mixture was prepared under low temperature (85 K) astrochemical conditions. The icy mixture irradiated with keV electrons simulates the irradiation environment experienced by icy satellites and Interstellar Icy Mantles (IIM). Upon electron irradi- ation the chemical composition was found to have altered and the new products from irradiation were found to be carbonyl sulphide (OCS), sulphur dioxide (SO2), ozone (O3), carbon trioxide (CO3), sulphur trioxide (SO3), carbon subsulphide (C3S2) and carbon monoxide (CO). Results obtained confirm the presence of CS2 molecules in lunar south-pole probed by the Moon Impact Probe (MIP). Keywords. Interstellar medium; interstellar icy mantles; icy satellites; radiation processing; carbon dioxide; carbon disulphide. 1. Introduction implantation on CO2 ices. However, proton implanta- tiononSO2 could not synthesize molecules containing 6 Icy satellites and Interstellar Icy Mantles (IIM) are H-S bonds. Electron irradiation of CS2 and O2 ices car- known to synthesize and harbour variety of molecules ried out at 12 K7 had shown several products bearing ranging from diatomic to complex molecules that take C-O and S-O bonds.
