The title compound, C(14)H(11)N(3)O(3), adopts an E or trans configuration with respect to the C=N bond. In the mol-ecule there is an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond involving the hy-droxy substituent at the 2-positon of the naphthalene ring and the adjacent methyl-ene-amino N atom. The mol-ecule is roughly planar, the dihedral angle between the naphthalene and imidazolidine-2,4-dione mean ...

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C14H14N2O4S, the N-H bond is syn to the ortho-nitro group in the sulfonyl benzene ring and anti to the ortho- and syn to the meta-methyl groups in the aniline ring. The mol-ecule is twisted at the S-N bond with a torsion angle of 71.41 (18)°. The dihedral angle between the planes of the benzene rings is 51.07 (8)°. In the crystal, pairs of N-H⋯Osu...

The Schiff base molecule of the title compound, C(14)H(12)N(4)O(6)·C(5)H(5)N, was obtained from the condensation reaction of 2-hy-droxy-3-meth-oxy-benzaldehyde and 2,4-dinitro-phenyl-hydrazine. The C=N bond of the Schiff base has a trans arrangement and the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 3.49 (10)°. An intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring. In the crystal, ...

Despite the ecological importance of pair bonding, ontogeny bond formation remains poorly understood. We capitalized on long-term high-resolution tracking social interactions across replicated colonies captive zebra finches, Taeniopygia guttata, to map dynamics relationships prior reproduction and identify role that relationship quality plays in subsequent reproductive performance. found pairs ...

This study aimed to evaluate the bonding strength and thermal properties of demineralized dentin with and without EDC treatment. Sound human molars were randomly divided into seven treatment groups (n = 20): control, 80% ethanol, and five EDC ethanol solutions (0.01-1.0 M). In each group, 16 samples were used for bond strength assessment and 4 samples were used for scanning electron microscopy ...

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the microtensile bond strengths (μ TBS) of three core materials with one lithium disilicate reinforced ceramic using two resin cements. Methods: Three core materials (Nulite F® (Biodental Technologies), Filtek Z250® (3M-ESPE), Prettau-Anterior® (Zirkonzhan, Germany)) were prepared as blocks (10×10×4 mm3) according to the manufacturer’s instruction...

In this comment we show that the scaling behaviour of the failure threshold of a random lattice whose individual éléments have a rupture threshold will be différent for the mechanical and electrical problems in percolation conditions. This is due to the fact that only torques and angular distortions are effective in bringing about rupture in the mechanical case. J. Physique 48 (1987) 903-904 J ...

This paper investigates the significance of volatility, skewness, kurtosis, and downside risk in predicting the cross-sectional variation in future returns on corporate bonds. The results indicate a significantly positive (negative) link between volatility (skewness) and expected returns, whereas kurtosis does not have a robust incremental contribution to the predictability of bond returns. Bon...

We investigate the extent to which emerging stock market integration affects the joint behavior of stock and bond returns using a two-stage semi-parametric approach. Using a sample of 18 emerging markets, we find an unambiguous and robust link between emerging stock market integration and stock–bond return decoupling. We explain this with a decline in the segmentation risk premia in equities mo...
