Synthesis, crystal structures and electronic properties of imidazoline nitroxide radicals bearing active groups in electropolymerisation
2003
Thiophene-, phenylthiophene-, and indole-based nitronyl nitroxide (NN) and imino nitroxide (IN) radicals have been synthesised and their electrochemical and magnetic properties have been studied. Cyclic voltammetry measurements show that NN radicals (1–3) exhibit a one-electron quasi-reversible oxidation process that results in the formation of the corresponding nitrosonium cations. This behaviour pushes the oxidation potential of the other redox-active moiety to very high values. The oxidation of the thiophene subunit occurs at 2.35 V, whereas the oxidation of the phenylthiophene and indole moieties takes place at 1.65 and 1.39 V, respectively. Oxidation of IN radicals (4–5) is irreversibl…
Nitronyl Nitroxide Radicals Linked to Exchange‐Coupled Metal Dimers – Studies Using X‐ray Crystallography, Magnetic Susceptibility Measurements, EPR …
2009
To study long-range magnetic interactions between exchange-coupled metal centers and a radical moiety coordinated through a peripheral group, three new homodimetallic complexes with MnII, CoII, and ZnII bridged by a nitronyl nitroxide (NIT) substituted benzoate ligand with the structure [(NIT-C6H4-COO)M2(LR)](ClO4)2 {M = MnII, CoII, and ZnII; NIT = nitronyl nitroxide and LR = N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(2-benzimidazolylalkyl)-2-hydroxy-1,3-diaminopropane} have been prepared and studied by X-ray crystallography, magnetic susceptibility measurements, EPR spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations. For comparison, related complexes with MnII and CoII bridged by a diamagnetic nitrobenzoate…
Hybrid Magnetic Materials Based on Nitroxide Free Radicals and Extended Oxalato‐Bridged Bimetallic Networks
2005
A series of hybrid organic-inorganic magnets of formula p-rad[MIICr(ox)3] [M = Mn (1), Co (2), Ni (3), Zn (4)] and m-rad[MIICr(ox)3] [M = Mn (5), Co (6)], in which N-methylpyridinium cations bearing a nitronyl nitroxide moiety in positions 3 (m-rad) or 4 (p-rad) of the pyridine ring coexist with the 2D honeycomb-like oxalato-bridged bimetallic lattice, has been prepared and studied by AC and DC magnetic susceptibility measurements and EPR spectroscopy. In general, the physical properties of these magnets are not altered significantly by the insertion of the nitronyl nitroxide radicals although these paramagnetic molecules seem to interact weakly with the inorganic network as demonstrated by…
Mutational Characterization of the Bile Acid Receptor TGR5 in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
2010
Background: TGR5, the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1), has been linked to inflammatory pathways as well as bile homeostasis, and could therefore be involved in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) a chronic inflammatory bile duct disease. We aimed to extensively investigate TGR5 sequence variation in PSC, as well as functionally characterize detected variants.Methodology/Principal Findings: Complete resequencing of TGR5 was performed in 267 PSC patients and 274 healthy controls. Six nonsynonymous mutations were identified in addition to 16 other novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms. To investigate the impact from the nonsynonymous variants on TGR5, we created a receptor mod…
Compatibility, effectiveness and susceptibility to degradation of alkoxysilane-based consolidation treatments on a carbonate stone
2021
Abstract Alkoxysilane-based consolidation treatment are commonly employed in restoration and conservation works of Cultural Heritage buildings. However, their poor affinity to carbonate stones is well-known. In this paper, we evaluate three consolidant treatments (two of them modified to incorporate hydrophobic or photocatalytic properties), formulated to circumvent this drawback and their cracking during drying, through a surfactant-assisted synthesis. The consolidants were applied on Noto stone, a biocalcarenite (~95% CaCO3 ) employed in numerous Cultural Heritage buildings of Southern Italy. A comprehensive validation of the three consolidants, compared to a commercial TEOS based consoli…
Iron-containing phases in metallurgical and coke dusts as well as in bog iron ore
2017
Abstract Several samples of dusts from steel and coke plants (collected mostly with electro filters) were subjected to the investigation of content of mineral phases in their particles. Additionally, sample of bog iron ore and metallurgical slurry was studied. Next, the magnetic susceptibility of all the samples was determined, and investigations of iron-containing phases were performed using transmission Mössbauer spectrometry. The values of mass-specific magnetic susceptibility χ varied in a wide range: from 59 to above 7000 × 10−8 m-3·kg−1. The low values are determined for bog iron ore, metallurgical slurry, and coke dusts. The extremely high χ was obtained for metallurgical dusts. The …
Exchange-coupled Fe-X-Fe model compounds for certain iron proteins
1988
X-ray structure studies, Mossbauer experiments and magnetic susceptibility measurements were used in connection with molecular orbital calculations to monitor structurally induced changes of electronic and magnetic properties in exchangecoupled [Fe2S2 (SR)4]2- and [Fe2OCl6]2- anions.
Mössbauer study and non-linear excitations in the antiferromagnetic chain of Rb2Mn1−xFexF5*H2O (x≤0.50)
1989
Mossbauer effect measurements have been performed on the quasi 1-d antiferromagnetic solid solutions of Rb2Mn1−xFexF5*H2O (x=0.50) as a function of temperature. Particular attention was paid to the region very close to the Neel point. The experimental spectra show definite relaxation effects which are attributed to short-range order with temperature dependent relaxation times. The solitor, model of non-linear excitations was applied. Experimental data on Fe(III) confirm the predicted exponential temperature dependence of the thermal excitation of moving domain walls.
Linear response theory and neutrino mean free path using Brussels-Montreal Skyrme functionals
2014
The Brussels-Montreal Skyrme functionals have been successful in describing properties of both finite nuclei and infinite homogeneous nuclear matter. In their latest version, these functionals have been equipped with two extra density-dependent terms in order to reproduce simultaneously ground state properties of nuclei and infinite nuclear matter properties while avoiding at the same time the arising of ferromagnetic instabilities. In the present article, we extend our previous results of the linear response theory to include such extra terms at both zero and finite temperature in pure neutron matter. The resulting formalism is then applied to derive the neutrino mean free path. The predic…
Pressure effect on a novel spin transition polymeric chain compound
2000
[Fe(hyptrz)3]A2·H2O (hyptrz = 4-(3′-hydroxypropyl)-1,2,4-triazole and A = 4-chlorobenzenesulfonate) represents a novel iron(II) polymeric chain compound. A discontinuous spin transition has been observed by temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements. The spin transition curves are shifted from 181 K to 324 K as the pressure varies from 1 bar to 5.9 kbar. The shapes of these curves are not strongly modified, and this is interpreted as being due to effective cooperative interactions along the chain. This behaviour under pressure can be extended to the family of iron(II)-1,2,4-triazole polymeric chain spin crossover materials.
