Copper-Assisted Hemiacetal Synthesis: A Cu II Chain Obtained by a One-Step in situ Reaction of Picolinaldehyde

2014

International audience; The 1D polymer complex [Cu2(L)2(SCN)2]n (1 ) has been synthesised in a one‐step in situ reaction of picolinaldehyde with sodium thiocyanate. The complex 1 was characterised by FTIR spectroscopy, UV/Vis spectrophotometry and elemental analysis. The crystal structure of complex 1 shows that chains of dimer complexes are formed with tetra‐ and pentacoordinate copper centres alternately linked by one thiocyanato and two alkoxido bridges. Variable‐temperature magnetic measurements showed a strong antiferromagnetic interaction between the copper centres within the dimer mediated by the two alkoxido bridges with a J value of –374 cm–1, which is in agreement with the DFT‐cal…

Cyclotomic Polynomials and Finite Automorphisms of Groups

2001

We introduce minimal polynomials for finite automorphisms of commutative groups and relate them to the exponent of the fixed points and to the reducibility of the group. Some results can be extended to the noncommutative case.

Automatic Counting of Intra-Cellular Ribonucleo-Protein Aggregates in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Using a Textural Approach.

2019

AbstractIn the context of microbiology, recent studies show the importance of ribonucleo-protein aggregates (RNPs) for the understanding of mechanisms involved in cell responses to specific environmental conditions. The assembly and disassembly of aggregates is a dynamic process, the characterization of the stage of their evolution can be performed by the evaluation of their number. The aim of this study is to propose a method to automatically determine the count of RNPs. We show that the determination of a precise count is an issue by itself and hence, we propose three textural approaches: a classical point of view using Haralick features, a frequency point of view with generalized Fourier…

Integrating fire-scar, charcoal and fungal spore data to study fire events in the boreal forest of northern Europe

2019

Fire is a major disturbance agent in the boreal forest, influencing many current and future ecosystem conditions and services. Surprisingly few studies have attempted to improve the accuracy of fire-event reconstructions even though the estimates of the occurrence of past fires may be biased, influencing the reliability of the models employing those data (e.g. C stock, cycle). This study aimed to demonstrate how three types of fire proxies – fire scars from tree rings, sedimentary charcoal and, for the first time in this context, fungal spores of Neurospora – can be integrated to achieve a better understanding of past fire dynamics. By studying charcoal and Neurospora from sediment cores f…

Towards understanding the abundance of non-pollen palynomorphs : A comparison of fossil algae, algal pigments and sedaDNA from temperate lake sedimen…

2018

Given the increased interest in non-pollen palynomorphs (microscopic objects other than pollen identified from pollen slides) in palaeoecological studies, it is necessary to seek a deeper understanding of the reliability of these results. We combined quantitative information of algal pigments and sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) of phylotaxonomical resolution to validate the richness and abundance of fossil algae in the sediment of a small temperate lake. For the first time, fossil and sedaDNA algae data were combined in a composite data-set and used to reconstruct algae turnover rates over the last 14,500 years. This comparison serves as both an example of howfossil algae can be used to a…

The Analysis of Auxological Data by Means of Nonlinear Multivariate Growth Curves

1999

In this paper we treat the problem to analyse a data set constituted by multivariate growth curves for different subjects; thus in this context we deal with 3-way data tables. Nevertheless, it is not possible using factorial techniques proposed to deal with 3-way data matrices, because the observations are generally not equally spaced; moreover a multilevel approach founded on polynomial models is not suitable to deal with intrinsic nonlinear models. We propose a non-factorial technique to analyse auxological data sets using an intrinsic nonlinear multivariate growth model with autocorrelated errors. The application to a real data set of growing children gave easily interpretable results.

Preparation and Characterization of Novel Poly(alkylidenamine) Nitrile Ruthenium Metallodendrimers

Complete functionalization of N,N,N',N'-[tetrakis(cyanoethyl)-hexamethylenediamine] [N≡C(CH 2 ) 2 ] 2 N(CH 2 ) 6 N[(CH 2 ) 2 -C≡N] 2 (4) and N,N,N',N'-(tetrakis(cyanoethoxypropyl)hexamethylenediamine] [N≡C(CH 2 ) 2 O(CH 2 ) 3 ] 2 N(CH 2 ) 6 N[(CH 2 ) 3 -O(CH 2 ) 2 C≡N] 2 (7) with the organometallic moiety [Ru(η 5 -C 5 H 5 )(PPh 3 ) 2 Cl] and the five-coordinate cis-[RuCl(dppe) 2 ]-[PF 6 ] [dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethane] was attained with good yield, respectively, by treating the metallo-fragment with the core in methanol (at room temperature and in presence of TIPF 6 as a chloride abstractor) and in 1,2-dichloroethane (under reflux). These novel nitrile-functionalized poly(alkyli…

Synthetic, structural and biochemical studies of polynuclear platinum(II) complexes with heterocyclic ligands.

2008

"Non-classical" di- and trinuclear Pt(II) complexes with polydentate nitrogen ligands; ionic [(PtCl(2))(2)(tptz)(2)(mu-PtClNCPh)]Cl (1) [tptz =2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine], [(PtCl(2))(2)(bptz)(2)(mu-Pt)]Cl(2) (2) [bptz = 3,6-bis(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine] and neutral [(PtCl(2))(2)(tptz)(2)(mu-PtCl(2))](H(2)O)(4) (3), [(PtCl(2))(2)(mu-tppz)](CHCl(3)) (4) [tppz = 2,3,5,6-tetra(2-pyridyl)pyrazine] complexes, have been prepared and structurally characterized. The neutral tptz and tppz complexes present three and two separate PtCl(2) moieties, respectively, in a cis position, presumably acting in a bifunctional mode towards DNA; the cationic tptz and bptz complexes contain monofuncti…

Copper(II) complexes with 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine and 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-ethoxypropenide anion: Syntheses, crystal structures and magnetic prope…

2009

International audience; The copper(II) complexes of formula [Cu2(2,5-dpp)(H2O)4(CF3SO3)4] · 2H2O (1) and [Cu2(2,5-dpp)(H2O)2(tcnoet)4]n (2) [2,5-dpp = 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine and tcnoet− = 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-ethoxypropenide anion] have been prepared and their structures determined by X-ray crystallographic methods. Compound 1 is a dinuclear complex where the 2,5-dpp molecule acts as a bis-bidentate bridge between the two copper centers, the electroneutrality being achieved by four terminally bound triflate anions. Each copper(II) ion presents an elongated octahedral CuN2O4 environment with two nitrogen atoms from 2,5-dpp and two water molecules in the basal plane and two triflate-oxyge…
