(Ni2), (Ni3), and (Ni2 + Ni3): A Unique Example of Isolated and Cocrystallized Ni2 and Ni3 Complexes

2009

Structural and magnetic characterization of compound {[Ni(2)(L)(2)(OAc)(2)][Ni(3)(L)(2)(OAc)(4)]}.2CH(3)CN (3) (HL = the tridentate Schiff base ligand, 2-[(3-methylamino-propylimino)-methyl]-phenol) shows that it is a rare example of a crystal incorporating a dinuclear Ni(II) compound, [Ni(2)(L)(2)(OAc)(2)], and a trinuclear one, [Ni(3)(L)(2)(OAc)(4)]. Even more unusual is the fact that both Ni(II) complexes, [Ni(2)(L)(2)(OAc)(2)] (1) and [Ni(3)(L)(2)(OAc)(4)(H(2)O)(2)].CH(2)Cl(2).2CH(3)OH (2), have also been isolated and structurally and magnetically characterized. The structural analysis reveals that the dimeric complexes [Ni(2)(L)(2)(OAc)(2)] in cocrystal 3 and in compound 1 are almost i…

First Crystallographic Investigation of Complexes of cis-VO2+, cis-MoO22+, and trans-UO22+ Species with Schiff-Base Molecules Derived from 4,6-O-Ethy…

2001

The interaction of Schiff-base ligands derived from 4,6-O-ethylidene-β-D-glucopyranosylamine with cis-VO 2 + , cis-MoO 2 2+ , and trans-UO 2 2+ species have been studied by isolating and characterizing the corresponding products. The structures of one complex of each type of species have been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In all the complexes, the saccharide moiety adopts a chair conformation and has a β-anomeric form. A gradual increase in coordination number (5, 6, and 7) and a gradual variation in the geometry (distorted trigonal-bipyramidal, distorted octahedral, and pentagonal-bipyramidal) are observed on going from the complexes of cis-VO 2 + (mononuclear) …

Carbazole-based green and blue-BODIPY dyads and triads as donors for bulk heterojunction organic solar cells.

2020

Two BODIPY derivatives with one (B2) and two (B3) carbazole moieties were synthesized and applied as electron-donor materials in organic photovoltaic cells (OPV). Their optical and electrochemical properties were systematically investigated. These BODIPY dyes exhibit excellent solubility in organic solvents and present high molar extinction coefficients (1.37–1.48 × 105 M−1 cm−1) in solutions with absorption maxima at 586 nm for mono-styryl groups and at 672 nm for di-styryl groups. The introduction of the styryl moieties results in a large bathochromic shift and a significant decrease in the HOMO–LUMO energy-gaps. The BODIPY dyes show relatively low HOMO energies ranging from −4.99 to −5.1…

New Triterpenoidal Saponins Acylated with Monoterpenic Acid fromAlbizia adianthifolia

2004

Four new triterpenoidal saponins acylated with monoterpenic acid, i.e., adianthifoliosides C, D, E, and F (1–4), besides the two known julibroside III and the monodesmonoterpenyl elliptoside A, were isolated from the roots of Albizia adianthifolia. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive 1D- and 2D-NMR studies and mass spectrometry as 3-O-{O-α-L-arabinopyranosyl-(12)-O-β-d-fucopyranosyl-(16)-O-[β-d-glucopyranosyl-(12)]-β-d-glucopyranosyl}-21-O-{(2E,6S)-6-{{4-O-[(2E,6S)-2,6-dimethyl-6-(β-D-quinovopyranosyloxy)octa-2,7-dienoyl]-β-d-quinovopyranosyl}oxy}-2-(hydroxymethyl)-6-methylocta-2,7-dienoyl}acacic acid 28-{O-α-L-arabinofuranosyl-(14)-O-[β-d-glucopyranosyl-(13)]-O-α-L-r…

Fluorescence emission and enhanced photochemical stability of Zn(II)-5-triethyl ammonium methyl salicylidene ortho-phenylendiiminate interacting with…

2010

Abstract The photophysical and photochemical properties of the cationic Zn II complex of 5-triethyl ammonium methyl salicylidene ortho-phenylendiimine (ZnL 2+ ) interacting with native DNA were investigated by steady state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopies. Experimental results indicate that, in the presence of DNA, ZnL 2+ is efficiently protected from a photochemical process, which occurs when it is in the free state dispersed in aqueous solution. The analysis of the absorption and emission spectra of ZnL 2+ , both stored in the dark and after exposure to tungsten lamp light for 24 h, corroborated by quantum chemical calculations, allowed us to point out that ZnL 2+ undergoes a…

Regime shifts and alternative stable states in intertidal rocky habitats: State of the art and new trends of research

2018

Abstract The existence of regime shifts and alternative stable states in ecosystems is well known and has very large effects on their structure and dynamics. Since shifts between alternative stable states have significant implications for the ecosystems conservation, their prevention should be an aim of primary interest, and for this reason a particular attention has been paid to their study. Regarding marine ecosystems, rocky intertidal habitats, in particular, represent an ideal system for the study of alternative stable states because of their characteristics: they exhibit strong environmental gradients, are easy to manipulate, and most of the inhabiting species grow rapidly. Given the s…

CRIS: A new method in isomeric beam production

2013

The Collinear Resonance Ionization Spectroscopy (CRIS) experiment at ISOLDE, CERN, uses laser radiation to stepwise excite and ionize an atomic beam for the purpose of ultra-sensitive detection of rare isotopes, and hyperfine-structure measurements. The technique also offers the ability to purify an ion beam that is heavily contaminated with radioactive isobars, including the ground state of an isotope from its isomer, allowing decay spectroscopy on nuclear isomeric states to be performed. The isomeric ion beam is selected by resonantly exciting one of its hyperfine structure levels, and subsequently ionizing it. This selectively ionized beam is deflected to a decay spectroscopy station (DS…

The THESEUS space mission concept: science case, design and expected performances

2018

THESEUS is a space mission concept aimed at exploiting Gamma-Ray Bursts for investigating the early Universe and at providing a substantial advancement of multi-messenger and time-domain astrophysics. These goals will be achieved through a unique combination of instruments allowing GRB and X-ray transient detection over a broad field of view (more than 1sr) with 0.5¿1 arcmin localization, an energy band extending from several MeV down to 0.3¿keV and high sensitivity to transient sources in the soft X-ray domain, as well as on-board prompt (few minutes) follow-up with a 0.7¿m class IR telescope with both imaging and spectroscopic capabilities. THESEUS will be perfectly suited for addressing …
