The structure and dynamic behaviour of monomeric lead(ii) dithiolate Pb(SCH(2)CH(2)NMe(2))(2) are studied by multi-nuclear NMR, IR and Raman spectroscopy in solution, as well as variable-temperature Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis in the solid-state, revealing an unusual dynamic "flip-flop" process in solution and reversible conformational isomerism of the chelated five-member...

It has equilibrium (and in fact reversible) measure μ the product Bernoulli measure of density p on {0, 1}Z. It can also be constructed by attaching a Poisson process clock to every site in Z. Every time a clock rings, the site is refreshed to a Bernoulli variable of parameter p, but only if its right neighbour is empty. This constraint creates the ”bubbles” one can see on the picture. A natura...

In the title compound, C(36)H(44)N(4)O(4)S, the dihedral angles between the central thio-phene ring and the pendent oxadiazole rings are 12.7 (2) and 13.7 (2)°, and the dihedral angles between the oxadiazole rings and their adjacent benzene rings are 6.1 (2) and 17.5 (2)°. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-action may help to establish the conformation.

Liesegang rings are uncommon pathological findings which may cause diagnostic dilemmas for pathologists. Awareness of their appearance is important to avoid over diagnosis of parasitic infection, algal contamination and psammoma bodies. Liesegang rings are benign, lamellar structures with radial striations and a central amorphous core. They are found in a variety of tissues and fluids in both a...

The structure of the title compound, C(23)H(18)N(2)S, is revealed by X-ray diffraction to be almost planar over all four aromatic rings; the pendant rings are at angles of 10.18, 14.12 and 15.42° relative to the central pyridine ring for the 4-methylsulfanyl, 2-pyridyl and 6-phenyl rings, respectively. The 2,6-aromatic substituents are disordered over two sites in a 0.6:0.4 occupancy ratio.

A new dual-boron-cored luminogen ligated with a nitrogen-containing multidentate ligand and four bulky phenyl rings was readily synthesized. The unique molecular structure endows this BN-containing luminogen with rich photophysical properties in either solution or in the solid state, including a large Stokes shift, aggregation induced emission activity and reversible piezochromism. Furthermore,...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(9)H(7)N(7)·2H(2)O, comprises three formula units. The dihedral angles between the triazole rings and the respective central pyridine rings are 4.87 (16)/1.39 (17), 6.46 (16)/7.61 (16) and 7.00 (16)/3.77 (17)°. The water mol-ecules form O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between themselves and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds with the N-atom acceptors of the triazole rings, pr...
