Benzodiazepine derivatives, compositions, and methods for treating cognitive impairment

This invention relates to benzodiazepine derivatives, compositions comprising therapeutically effective amounts of those derivatives and methods of using those derivatives or compositions in treating cognitive impairment associated with CNS disorders. It also relates to the use of an α5-containing GABA.sub.A receptor agonist (e.g., an α5-containing GABA.sub.A receptor positive allosteric modulator) in treating cognitive impairment associated with CNS disorders in a subject in need or at risk thereof, including age-related cognitive impairment, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), amnestic MCI, Age-Associated Memory Impairment, Age Related Cognitive Decline, dementia, Alzheimer's Disease (AD), prodromal AD, PTSD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, ALS, cancer-therapy-related cognitive impairment, mental retardation, Parkinson's disease, autism spectrum disorders, fragile X disorder, Rett syndrome, compulsive behavior, and substance addiction. It also relates to the use of an α5-containing GABA.sub.A receptor agonist (e.g., an α5-containing GABA.sub.A receptor positive allosteric modulator) in treating brain cancers (including brain tumors, e.g., medulloblastomas), and cognitive impairment associated therewith.

N-type dopants for efficient solar cells

Triazabicylodecene can effectively n-dope a variety of organic semiconductors, including PCBM, thus increasing in-plane conductivities. We synthesized a series of TBD-based n-dopants via an N-alkylation reaction and studied the effect of various alkyl chains on the physical and device properties of the dopants. Combining two TBD moieties on a long alky chain gave a solid dopant, 2TBD-C10, with high thermal stability above 250° C. PCBM films doped by 2TBD-C10 were the most tolerant to thermal annealing and reached in-plane conductivities of 6.5×10.sup.−2 S/cm. Furthermore, incorporating 2TBD-C10 doped PCBM as the electron transport layer (ETL) in methylammonium lead triiodide (MAPbI.sub.3) based photovoltaics led to a 23% increase in performance, from 11.8% to 14.5% PCE.
