Facile ligand substitution is observed when the ruthenium-azide complex, [RuN(3)(Tp)(PPh(3))(2)] [Tp,HB(pz)(3), pz = pyrazol-yl, PPh(3) = triphenyl-phosphine] is treated with benzo-nitrile, yielding the title compound, [Ru(C(9)H(10)BN(6))(N(3))(C(7)H(5)N)(C(18)H(15)P)]. The asymmetric unit contains two crystallographically independent mol-ecules. In each one, the Ru(II) atom is six-coordinated ...

Oxidative and hydrolytic degradation reactions were carried out on teicoplanin in order to characterize the aromatic portion of the molecule and relate it to the other members of the class of glycopeptide antibiotics. Seven aromatic rings, obtained as triphenyl ether, diphenyl ether, and diphenyl moieties after oxidation nd hydrolysis of teicoplanin, were identified. They are present in teicopl...

Mitochondria as an important organ in eukaryotic cells produced energy through oxidative phosphorylation and also played an important role in regulating the apoptotic signal transduction process. Importantly, mitochondria like nuclei also contained the functional DNA and were very sensitive to anticancer drugs which could effectively inhibit the synthesis of nucleic acid, especially the product...

The title mol-ecule, C(26)H(22)N(4)S, is composed of three main parts, viz. a triphenyl-amine group is connected to a phenyl ring by a thio-semicarbazone moiety. The C= N double bond has an E conformation. The crystal packing is dominated by strong hydrogen bonds through the thio-semicarbazone moiety, with pairs of N-H⋯S hydrogen bonds linking the mol-ecules to form inversion dimers with an R(2...

The Ag(I) atom in the title hydrated solvated salt, [Ag(C18H15As)4](CF3CO2)·0.5CH3OH·0.5H2O, is coordinated by four As atoms from triphenyl-arsane ligands in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding occurs between carboxyl-ate groups of anions and lattice solvent mol-ecules. Of the four triphenyl-arsane ligands in the Ag complex cation, two each have an equally ...

Sperm cell and embryo toxicity tests using the Mediterranean sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus were performed to assess the toxicity of tributyltin chloride, bis(tributyltin)oxide, triphenyltin acetate, and triphenyltin hydroxide. Toxicity values (mean effective concentration [EC50]) ranged from 2.97 to 18.5 microg/L for sperm cells and from 1.11 to 2.62 microg/L for embryos. For sperm cells, th...

In the title molecular salt, C36H30NP2(+)·C24BF20(-), the P-N bond lengths in the cation are equal [1.573 (2) and 1.572 (2) Å], indicating a resonance structure and the P-N-P bond angle is 144.79 (12)°. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯F interactions link the cations and the anions.
