The crystal structures are reported for two unsubstituted arylnaphthalene lactones, 4-phenylnaphtho[2,3-c]furan-1(3H)-one (2), 9-phenylnaphtho[2,3-c]furan-1(3H)-one (3) and a non-aromatic dihydro arylnaphthene lactone, 3a,4-dihydro-9-phenylnaphtho[2,3-c]furan-1(3H)-one (5). There only minor differences in the geometrical parameters of these structures. However, certain cases, both isomers lacto...

Latua pubiflora (Griseb) Phil. Is a native shrub of the Solanaceae family that grows freely in southern Chile and is employed among Mapuche aboriginals to induce sedative effects and hallucinations in religious or medicine rituals since prehispanic times. In this work, the pentobarbital-induced sleeping test and the elevated plus maze test were employed to test the behavioral effects of extract...

It is well-known that the harsh operational conditions of turbine blades lead to a gradual change in the microstructure of underlying Ni-based superalloy of blades. According to this, a rejuvenation process should be conducted on turbine blades superalloys to recover their microstructures. The first and main step of rejuvenation process is the determination of appropriate solution condition in ...
