Materiali e sistemi di posa in opera innovativi per l’incremento prestazionale del vetromattone

2010

L’articolo illustra gli esiti preliminari dell’attività di ricerca finalizzata ad individuare soluzioni innovative per il miglioramento delle prestazioni degli elementi di captazione della luce naturale, per l’ottimizzazione energetica e l’incremento prestazionale degli involucri edilizi traslucidi. In particolare, l’articolo mette in luce le potenzialità del vetromattone per la configurazione di involucri edilizi di questo tipo: dopo averne sinteticamente illustrato le applicazioni più recenti ed aver analizzato l’evoluzione delle sue prestazioni attraverso l’analisi dei brevetti, registrati a partire dagli anni Venti del Novecento, si dà conto di un nuovo sistema di messa in opera del vet…

A Discrete P⋅⋅⋅II⋅⋅⋅P Assembly: The Large Influence of Weak Interactions on the31P NMR Spectra of Phosphane–Diiodine Complexes

2006

Thioethers, except derivatives of [7-R-7,8-C2B9H11] , are more weakly coordinating ligands than phosphanes. This difference is evidenced by the I I distances in the spokeshaped charge-transfer (CT) complexes R2S·I2 and R3P·I2 (Figure 1). The I I distance is sensitive to the strength of the interaction between the s* LUMO orbital on I2 and the HOMO orbital of the donor atom: the stronger the donor, the longer the I I distance. In these spoke CT complexes, the I I distance varies from 3.2 0.2 7 in R3P·I2 adducts [5] to 2.80 0.05 7 in R2S·I2 adducts, [6] indicating the weaker donor character of the thioether group. Whereas extended I2 arrays, spoke adducts of I2, polyiodides, and other structu…

Diorganotin(IV) Complexes of Methyl 2-{[(E)-8-Oxo-5, 8-dihydroquinolin-5-ylidene]hydrazino}benzoate

2012

Three cis-bis{5-[(E)-2-(2-carbomethoxyphenyl)-1- diazenyl]quinolinolato}-diorganotin(IV), R2Sn(L)2, complexes [R = Me (1), Ph (2) and Bz (3)] were synthesized and characterized by 1H-, 13C-, 119Sn- NMR, IR, and 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopic techniques in combination with elemental analysis. The structure of diphenyltin(IV) complex Ph2Sn(L)2 (2) was determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography as its tri-benzene solvate. Each complex was found to adopt a distorted cis-R2 octahedral arrangement around the tin atom with the quinolinolato ligands being N,O-chelating; the oxygen atoms are trans to each other. The complexes retain their solid- state structure in non-coordinating solvents as…

Two new supramolecular architectures of singly phenoxo-bridged copper(II) and doubly phenoxo-bridged manganese(II) complexes derived from an unusual …

2009

International audience; Two new coordination complexes {[(L)Cu2('-L)(NO3)(CH3OH)0.3(H2O)0.7]·NO3}[Cu(L)(NO3)(CH3OH)] (1) and [Mn2(-L)2(H2O)(1-N3)2(CH3OH)] (2) derived from (E)-N-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)acetohydrazide [LH] have been synthesized. The new potentially tetradentate ONOO donor hydrazone ligand [LH] has shown considerable metal ion selective phenoxo bridging in 1 and 2. It has coordinated copper(II) ions in its tridentate as well as in tetradentate fashion whereas for manganese(II) ions it solely showed its tetradentate character. In 1 the two adjacent pentacoordinate copper(II) centers are connected by a rare single phenoxo linkage of the hydrazone ligand whereas 2 is a d…

Differential evolution of PSA-NCAM expression during aging of the rat telencephalon

2007

Changes in the ability of neuronal networks to undergo structural remodeling may be involved in the age-associated cognitive decline. The polysialylated form of the neural cell adhesion molecule (PSA-NCAM) declines dramatically during postnatal development, but persists in several regions of the young-adult rat telencephalon, where it participates, through its anti-adhesive properties, in neuronal structural plasticity. However, PSA-NCAM expression during aging has only been studied in the dentate gyrus and the piriform cortex layer II, where it is strongly downregulated in adult (middle-aged) individuals. Using immunohistochemistry, we have observed that in most of the telencephalic areas …

Structural Characterisation of Complex Layered Double Hydroxides and TGA-GC-MS Study on Thermal Response and Carbonate Contamination in Nitrate- and …

2015

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are versatile materials used for intercalating bioactive molecules in the fields of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and cosmetics, with the purpose of protecting them from degradation, enhancing their water solubility to increase bioavailability and improving their pharmacokinetic properties and formulation stability. Moreover, LDHs are used in various technological applications to improve stability and processability. The crystal chemistry of hydrotalcite-like compounds was investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), automated electron diffraction tomography (ADT) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)-GC-MS to shed light on the mechanisms involved in io…

Novel inhibitors of mitochondrial respiratory chain: endoperoxides from the marine tunicate Stolonica socialis.

2001

The Mediterranean tunicate Stolonica socialis contains a new class of powerful cytotoxic acetogenins, generically named stolonoxides. In this paper, which also details the isolation and chemical characterization of a minor component (3a) of the tunicate extract, we report the potent inhibitory activity (IC(50) < 1 microM) of stolonoxides (1a and 3a) on mitochondrial electron transfer. The compounds affect specifically the functionality of complex II (succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase) and complex III (ubiquinol:cytochrome C oxidoreductase) in mammalian cells, thereby causing a rapid collapse of the whole energetic metabolism. This result, which differs from the properties of similar known…

Single-Ion Magnetic Behavior in CoII-CoIII Mixed-Valence Dinuclear and Pseudodinuclear Complexes

2017

Two CoII–CoIII mixed-valence complexes of molecularformulas [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)2][Co2(H2L)2(H2O)(m-phth)]·8(H2O) {1;H2L2–= 2-[(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)amino]-2-(hydroxymethyl)propane-1,3-diolato, m-phth = 1,3-benzene-dicarboxylate} and [Co4(H2L)4(H2O)2(ppda)]·2(dmf)·3.2(H2O) {2;ppda = 1,4-phenylenediacrylate; dmf = N,N-dimethyl-formamide} were synthesized and characterized by single-crys-tal X-ray diffraction and magnetic studies at low temperature.The structural determination reveals that 1 is composed of di-nuclear ion pairs, namely, a cationic [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)2]+(1+) andan anionic [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)(m-phth)]–(1–) unit. In each of these ions, the CoIIand CoIIIcenters present distorted octa…

The contrast between self- and other-produced tickles, as a special case of sensory attenuation for self-produced actions, has long been a target of empirical research. While in standard wake states it is nearly impossible to tickle oneself, there are interesting exceptions. Notably, subjects awakened from REM (rapid eye movement-) sleep dreams are able to tickle themselves. So far, however, the question of whether it is possible to tickle oneself and be tickled by another in the dream state has not been investigated empirically or addressed from a theoretical perspective. Here, we report the results of an explorative web-based study in which participants were asked to rate their sensations…
