Crystal structure of μ-oxido-1,1′κ2 O:O-bis{tetra-μ-oxido-1:2κ2 O:O;1:3κ2 O:O;2:3κ4 O:O-tris[1,2,3(η5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl]-trianglo-tri…

The title polynuclear organometallic titanium(IV) oxide, [{Ti3(η5-C5Me5)3(μ-O)4}2(μ-O)], exhibits two Ti3O4 cores bridged by an O atom located on a twofold axis. All metal centers present the typical three-legged piano-stool coordination environment, where one site is occupied by a pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligand linked in an η5-coordination fashion, while three bridging O atoms fill the other three sites.
Rational design and modelling of f-block molecular nanomagnets
2016
Los imanes monomoleculares o moléculas imán, por sus siglas en inglés SMMs, han suscitado una gran atención en los últimos años debido a sus extraordinarias propiedades físicas. Los cristales de este tipo de moléculas se caracterizan por presentar relajación lenta de la magnetización a baja temperatura, así como curvas de histeresis magnética. Estas moléculas se encuentran entre las entidades con comportamiento magnético más complejas, mostrando fenómenos cuánticos tales como efecto túnel en la magnetización, coherencia cuántica o interferencia cuántica. Por esto, se han postulado como candidatos prometedores para el diseño de bits cuánticos (qubits) de espín en computación cuántica. La pri…
Reacciones de Friedel-Crafts enantioselectivas de naftoles, fenoles e hidroxiindoles catalizadas por derivados de alcaloides de la Cinchona
2016
Durante los últimos años, han sido descritos numerosos ejemplos de reacciones enantioselectivas con hidroxiarenos, especialmente usando organocatalizadores bifuncionales. A pesar de ello, la funcionalización asimétrica de hidroxiarenos ha sido menos estudiada si la comparamos con reacciones de Friedel-Crafts con indoles o pirroles. Además, el alcance de la reacción respecto del nucleófilo es limitado en muchos casos. En el capítulo 2.2, se describe una descripción detallada de todos las reacciones de Friedel-Crafts enantioselectivas con hidroxiarenos descritas en la bibliografía. En este contexto, durante la presente tesis hemos descrito el desarrollo de nuevos métodos para la funcionalizac…
Occurrence of priority pollutants in WWTP effluents and Mediterranean coastal waters of Spain
2011
A comprehensive study aimed at evaluating the occurrence, significance of concentrations and spatial distribution of priority pollutants (PPs) along the Comunidad Valenciana coastal waters (Spain) was carried out in order to fulfil the European Water Framework Directive (WFD). Additionally, PP concentrations were also analysed in the effluent of 28 WWTPs distributed along the studied area. In coastal waters 36 organic pollutants of the 71 analysed, including 26 PPs were detected although many of them with low frequency of occurrence. Only 13 compounds, which belong to four different classes (VOCs, organochlorinated pesticides, phthalates and tributyltin compounds (TBT)) showed a frequency o…
Synthesis, structural studies and reactivity of vanadium complexes with tridentate (OSO) ligand
2007
The direct reaction between [VCl(3)(thf)3] or [VO(OEt)3] and 2,2'-thiobis{4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-butyl)phenol (tbopH(2)) leads to the formation of [V(2)(micro-tbop-kappa(3)O,S,O)2Cl(2)(CH(3)CN)(2)] (1).4CH(3)CN or [V(2)(micro-OEt)2(O)2(tbop-kappa(3)O,S,O)2] (2), respectively, in high yield. Compounds 1 and 2 were characterized by chemical and physical techniques including X-ray crystallography and variable temperature magnetic susceptibility studies (J = -29.1 cm(-1)) for 1. Complexes 1 and 2 were supported on MgCl2 and when activated with aluminium alkyls, were found to effectively polymerize ethene to produce polyethylene with a narrow molecular weight distribution M(w)/M(n) approximately…
An Open-Label Phase II Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Ramucirumab Combined With mFOLFOX-6 as First-Line Therapy for Metastatic Colorecta…
2014
Abstract Author Summary Background. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) are believed to mediate angiogenesis in colorectal cancer (CRC). Ramucirumab (RAM; IMC-1121B) is a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that inhibits VEGF ligand binding to VEGFR-2, inhibiting VEGFR-2 activation and signaling. Methods. Patients with metastatic CRC, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0–1, and adequate organ function who had not received chemotherapy for metastatic disease received RAM and the modified FOLFOX-6 regimen every 2 weeks. Endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate, overall survival, and safety. The sample size wa…
Copper-catalyzed regioselective synthesis of (E)-β-fluorovinyl sulfones
2019
Organofluorine compounds are finding increasing application in a variety of fields such as pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material sciences. However, given the scarcity of fluorine-containing natural products, advancement in this area depends almost entirely on the development of new synthetic methodologies. In this article, we present the synthesis of a series of previously undescribed (E)-&beta
Impact of a minimally processing route for the production of infant formulas on the organoleptic properties
2022
Many new-borns are fed with substitutes of breast milk. These products undergo several heat treatments, necessary to insure their microbiologic safety but probably modifying their organo-leptic properties. High temperature can damage milk proteins and form Maillard reaction prod-ucts with lactose. Microfiltration – to replace the heat treatments for a milk debacterization – combined with a soft spray-drying is currently an alternative little exploited to produce infant formulas (IFs) although microbiologically safe. The aim of this study was to determine the im-pact of such processing route on the organoleptic properties of the IFs. Three experimental IFs were manufactured at a semi-industr…
Moisture loss, gain and migration in foods and its impact on food quality
2010
Abstract: Moisture loss, gain and transfer, whether originating from exchanges with the atmosphere or with another component of the food, always cause deterioration in the overall quality of the food through softening, toughening, breakdown, and swelling or shrinkage caused by phase transitions or dissolution (Petersen et al., 1999). In most cases, water migrations lead to a deterioration of the overall quality (organoleptic or hygienic) of the food. With a view to better understanding physical deterioration of food and to provide a tool to better control food quality (and give a longer shelf life) this chapter reviews the water relationships in foods with a particular focus on glass-transi…
The effect of glycerol on the perceived aroma of a model wine and a white wine
2001
Abstract Glycerol is one of the most abundant components of wine. In dry wines its concentration is only exceeded by water and ethanol. Several studies have been carried out on the effects of glycerol on mouthfeel, but little attention has been given to glycero–flavour interactions. Consequently, here we have turned our attention to the aroma perception. Purge and Trap analysis and sensory measurements were used to investigate the modifications in volatility of aroma compounds in model solutions and white wine according to their glycerol concentration. In water, the amount of aroma compounds released was not affected by the presence of glycerol concentrations ranging from 5 to 50 g/L. The a…
