Dinuclear and two- and three-dimensional gadolinium(III) complexes with mono- and dicarboxylate ligands: synthesis, structure and magnetic properties
2009
Three new gadolinium(III) complexes with carboxylate ligands of formula [Gd2(ac)6(H2O)4]·2H2O (1), [Gd2(ac)2(fum)2(H2O)4]n (2) and [Gd2(ox)(fum)2(H2O)4]n·4nH2O (3) (ac = acetate, fum = fumarate and ox = oxalate) have been prepared and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction on single crystals. The structure of 1 is made up of discrete centrosymmetric di-µ-oxo(carboxylate acetate)digadolinium(III) units with an intramolecular Gd⋯Gd separation of 4.1589(3) A. Each gadolinium atom in 1 is nine-coordinated with two water molecules and seven carboxylate-oxygen atoms from four acetate ligands building a monocapped square antiprism environment. Compound 2 exhibits a sheet-like structure, …
Self-Assembly of Zr(C2O4)44– Metallotectons and Bisimidazolium Cations: Influence of the Dication on H-Bonded Framework Dimensionality and Material P…
2011
Assemblies involving [Zr(C2O4)4]4– metallotectons (C2O42– = oxalate) and linear, flexible, or V-shaped organic cations (H2-Lx)2+ derived from the 1,4-bisimidazol-1-ylbenzene molecule have been envisioned to elaborate porous frameworks based on ionic H-bonds. Five architectures of formula [{(H2-L1)2Zr(C2O4)4}·2H2O] (1), [{(H2-L2)2Zr(C2O4)4}·6H2O] (2), [{(H2-L3)2Zr(C2O4)4}·6H2O] (3), [{(H2-L4)2Zr(C2O4)4}·H2O] (4), and [{(H2-L5)2Zr(C2O4)4}·6H2O] (5) (with L1 = p-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene, L2 = p-bis(2-methylimidazol-1-yl)benzene, L3 = p-bis(imidazol-1-yl)-2,5-dimethylbenzene, L4 = p-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, L5 = m-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene) have been obtained; 1–3, and 5 show an open-f…
Synthesis, Structure, and Magnetic Properties of [(S)-[PhCH(CH3)N(CH3)3]][Mn(CH3CN)2/3Cr(ox)3]·(CH3CN)_(solvate), a 2D Chiral Magnet Containing a Qua…
2008
The synthesis, structure, and magnetic properties of a novel oxalate-based bimetallic magnet obtained by using the chiral (S)-trimethyl-(1-phenyl-ethyl)-ammonium, ((S)-[PhCH(CH3)N(CH3)3](+)), cation as template is reported. This compound can be formulated as [(S)-[PhCH(CH3)N(CH3)3]][Mn(CH3CN)2/3Cr(ox)3] x (CH3CN)_(solvate), and it crystallizes in the chiral trigonal space group P3. It shows a distorted two-dimensional honeycomb structure formed by Mn(II) and Cr(III) ions connected through oxalate anions with [(S)-[PhCH(CH3)N(CH3)3](+) cations and solvent molecules intercalated between the oxalate layers. Two-thirds of the Mn(II) ions of the honeycomb anionic network are heptacoordinated. Th…
Diurnal Regulation of Leaf Water Status in High- and Low-Mannitol Olive Cultivars
2014
The role of mannitol and malic acid in the regulation of diurnal leaf water relations was investigated in ‘Biancolilla’ (high-mannitol) and ‘Cerasuola’ (low-mannitol) olive trees. Photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD), vapor pressure deficit (VPD), stomatal conductance (gs), transpiration rate (T), relative water content (RWC), mannitol and malic acid were measured in ‘Biancolilla’ and ‘Cerasuola’ leaves during a dry and hot day of summer in Sicily. In general, leaves of ‘Biancolilla’ trees exhibited greater mannitol content, higher gs and T, but lower RWC than leaves of ‘Cerasuola’ trees. Differences in gs and T between the two cultivars were evident mainly in mid to late morning. ‘Bia…

Palaeophylloxera nov. gen., The firstfossil specimen of the family Phylloxeridae (Hemiptera, Phylloxeroidea); Lower Miocene of Spain
1999
A fossil alate aphid from the Lower Aragonian (Lower Miocene) deposits of Rubielos de Mora (Teruelprovince) in eastern Spain is described as Palaeophylloxera seilacheri nov. gen. and sp. It is the first fossil specimen described within the Family Phylloxeridae. The principal differences between this genus and other representatives of the Phylloxeridae (and also the extinct Elektraphididae) are the apparent presence of an oblique vein on the hind wing, the presence of distinctly visible transverse striae on antennal segment III, and the peculier venation on the fore wings.
The Innervation of Taste Buds in the Soft Palate and Circumvallate Papilla of the Rat as Revealed by the Zinc Iodide-Osmium Tetroxide Technique.
1998
The taste buds in the soft palate and the circumvallate papillae of the rat were investigated by the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide technique. In addition, electron micrographs of taste buds stained with this method were presented for the first time. Differences in taste bud structures were found between the examined regions. The taste buds of the soft palate showed a complicated plexus of intragemmal nerve fibers. Some fibers exhibited terminal polymorphic swellings. Single branches could be traced close to the space of the taste pore. In the soft palate, the taste bud cells remained unstained, whereas in the circumvallate papillae of the tongue, a subpopulation of taste bud cells could be s…
Bis(tert-butylammonium) oxalate
2006
The component species in the title compound, 2C4H12N2+·C2O42−, interact by way of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a layered network. N and two C atoms of the cation possess site symmetry m and the C atom of the anion has site symmetry 2.
Evaluation of anti-androgenic activity of di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate
2005
International audience; DEHP is a widely used platiciser in the manufacture of PVC-based materials. It is known to disrupt the reproductive tract development in male rats. We have performed the Hershberger assay with DEHP on an immature castrated rat model to check if DEHP antagonise the testosterone propionate androgenic effect on the accessory sex organs development. DEHP significantly decreased the BC/LA muscles, the prostate, and the seminal vesicles relative weights from 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg bw/day, respectively. DEHP increased the liver relative weight from 100 mg/kg bw/day. A study was also performed on MDA-MB453 cell line stably transfected with pMMTVneo-Luc with DEHP and its maj…
Synthesis, crystal structure, spectroscopic characterisation and magnetic properties of [Cu2(BIBM)2(C2O4)2]·4H2O (BIBM=bis(2-imidazolyl)bis(methoxyca…
2001
Abstract The structure and spectroscopic and magnetic properties of bis(μ-1,2,3-oxalato)bis[bis(2-imidazolyl)bis(methoxycarbonyl)methylmethane]dicopper(II) tetrahydrate are described. The compound is built of centrosymmetric neutral dimeric [Cu2(BIBM)2(C2O4)2] entities linked through hydrogen bonds involving water molecules and oxalate groups. In the dimeric unit the two centrosymmetrically related copper — which are involved in CuN2O2O2′ chromophores lying in an elongated octahedral environment — are bridged through the oxalate group which acts in a bidentate–monodentate (μ-1,2,3) fashion. Both electronic and EPR spectra are indicative of an essentially dx2−y2 ground state for the copper(I…
