Cytotoxic hydrophilic iminophosphorane coordination compounds of d8 metals. Studies of their interactions with DNA and HSA

2012

The synthesis and characterization of a new water-soluble N,N-chelating iminophosphorane ligand TPAN-C(O)-2-NC(5)H(4) (N,N-IM) (1) and its d(8) (Au(III), Pd(II) and Pt(II)) coordination complexes are reported. The structures of cationic [AuCl(2)(N,N-IM)]ClO(4) (2) and neutral [MCl(2)(N,N-IM)] M=Pd (3), Pt(4) complexes were determined by X-ray diffraction studies or by means of density-functional calculations. While the Pd and Pt compounds are stable in mixtures of DMSO/H(2)O over 4 days, the gold derivative (2) decomposes quickly to TPAO and previously reported neutral gold(III) compound [AuCl(2)(N,N-H)] 5 (containing the chelating N,N-fragment HN-C(O)-2-NC(5)H(4)). The cytotoxicities of co…

Formation of a novel ferromagnetic end-to-end cyanate bridged homochiral helical copper(ii) Schiff base complex via spontaneous symmetry breaking

2014

A homochiral helical coordination polymer of copper(II) has been synthesized using achiral precursors via spontaneous symmetry breaking and has been confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction and solid-state CD spectroscopy. The variable temperature magnetic measurements indicate the presence of weak ferromagnetic exchange interactions mediated by end-to-end cyanate bridges (J = +0.12 cm(-1)).

Enantiomerically pure trinuclear helicates via diastereoselective self-assembly and characterization of their redox chemistry.

2014

A tris(bipyridine) ligand 1 with two BINOL (BINOL = 2, 2′-dihydroxy-1, 1′-binaphthyl) groups has been prepared in two enantiomerically pure forms. This ligand undergoes completely diastereoselective self-assembly into D2-symmeteric double-stranded trinuclear helicates upon coordination to copper(I) and silver(I) ions and to D3-symmetric triple-stranded trinuclear helicates upon coordination to copper(II), zinc(II), and iron(II) ions as demonstrated by mass spectrometry, NMR and CD spectroscopy in combination with quantum chemical calculations and X-ray diffraction analysis. According to the calculations, the single diastereomers that are formed during the self-assembly process are strongly …

Luminescent P-Chirogenic Copper Clusters

2013

P-chirogenic clusters of the cubanes [Cu4I4L4] (L = chiral phosphine) were prepared from (+)- and (-)-ephedrine with L = (S)- or (R)-(R)(Ph)(i-Pr)P (with R = CH3 (seven steps) or C17H35 (10 steps)) with e.e. up to 96%. The X-ray structure of [Cu4I4((R)-(CH3)(Ph)(i-Pr)P)4] confirmed the cubane structure with average Cu···Cu and Cu···I distances of 2.954 and 2.696 Å, respectively. The cubane structure of the corresponding [Cu4I4((S)-(CH3)(Ph)(i-Pr)P)4] was established by the comparison of the X-ray powder diffraction patterns, and the opposite optical activity of the (S)- and (R)-ligand-containing clusters was confirmed by circular dichroism spectroscopy. Small-angle X-ray scattering patterns…

Self Cartography : migration process and narrative of the psychological suffering of people in a migration situation

2022

Introduction This research aims to experiment a methodological protocol called «Self Cartography» with people in migration situations. By combining the life story and the geographical map, this device is a response to the clinical challenges imposed by current global migratory movements. With people of different origins, cultures and sometimes languages, it is a question of developing a method capable of capturing sufferings of another type, called «globalised», which define the migratory processes of persons in exile. Method The study was carried out in two steps: 1) An exploratory phase (N = 5) to test the Self Cartography and identify the first clinical potentials and methodological bias…

Corrosion of Heritage Objects: Collagen‐Like Triple Helix Found in the Calcium Acetate Hemihydrate Crystal Structure

2020

Abstract Helical motifs are common in nature, for example, the DNA double or the collagen triple helix. In the latter proteins, the helical motif originates from glycine, the smallest amino acid, whose molecular confirmation is closely related to acetic acid. The combination of acetic acid with calcium and water, which are also omnipresent in nature, materializing as calcium acetate hemihydrate, was now revealed to exhibit a collagen‐like triple helix structure. This calcium salt is observed as efflorescence phase on calcareous heritage objects, like historic Mollusca shells, pottery or marble reliefs. In a model experiment pure calcium acetate hemihydrate was crystallized on the surface of…

La construction territoriale d'une offre périscolaire dans le département de la Côte d'Or : les familles, les collectivités et la réforme

2017

Cette enquête porte sur la mise en ouvre de la réforme de l'articulation des temps scolaires et périscolaires, dans le cadre de la loi d'orientation et de programmation pour la refondation de l’école de la République du 8 juillet 2013, en Côte d'Or. L'enquête dont les résultats sont présentés ici repose sur un matériel substantiel récolté entre 2015 et 2017 formé par une base de données formée à partir de projets éducatifs territoriaux fournis par les communes volontaires. L'objectif de l'enquête était de faire un répertoire de l'offre périscolaire en Bourgogne et de la manière dont les territoires peuvent ou non constituer des ressources dans la mise en ouvre de la réforme, tout en prenant…

 Muséo-parcs et réenchantement de l’expérience muséale : le cas de la Cité des Arts et des Sciences de Valencia

2010

The museum offer undergoes at present profound transformations. Beyond the traditional structures which do not any more hesitate to use innovative museographies and to slide in the sphere of the leisure activities, it seems to develop a new sector, halfway between museums and amusement parks called museopark. The aim of this article is to analyze an example of this hybrid offer, the City of Arts and Science in Valencia (Spain), fitting very well with the edutainment logic and to understand the structuring elements and the borrowings made in of the amusement parks. After the presentation of theoretical foundations underlying the definition of experiential museums, we expose our case study, b…

Fractional Fourier transform dual random phase encoding of time-varying signals

2008

Optical techniques have shown great potential in the field of information security to encode high-security images. Among several established methods, a double-random phase encryption technique (DRPE) for encoding a primary image into stationary white noise was developed by using the analogy between Fresnel diffraction patterns and the fractional Fourier transform (FrFT-DRPE). In this case, additional keys are obtained through the knowledge of the fractional orders of the FrFTs. In this work we propose an encoding setup for time-varying signals, mainly for short-haul fiber optics link applications, that can be considered as the temporal analogue of the spatial FrFT-DRPE. The behavior of the …
