A tridentate benzoxazole-containing aminophenol ligand HL(BAP) was synthesized and complexed with Cu(II). The resulting Cu(II) complexes were characterized by X-ray, IR, UV-vis-NIR spectroscopies, and magnetic susceptibility studies, demonstrating that the ligand is oxidized to the o-iminosemiquinone form [L(BIS)](-) in the isolated complexes. L(BIS)Cu(II)Cl exhibits a distorted tetrahedral geo...

The activation of the C≡N moiety in the redox-active metalloligand [CpRu{κ(3)N(pz)-1}][PF6] (2) (1: ambidentate hybrid ligand, N≡C-C(pz)3, with pz = pyrazolyl) was observed in the reaction with [Ir(cod)Cl]2 (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene). By performing detailed NMR spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic investigations the product was found to be a bimetallic Ru(II)-Ir(III) complex of the composit...

This study introduces a reversible optical fulladder. Also optical NOT and NOR gates are implemented through Electro-Absorption-Modulator / Photo Detector (EAM/PD) pairs, were utilized for fulfilling reversible R gate. Then, reversible fulladder was designed based on the proposed reversible optical R gate. The operation of the suggested fulladder was simulated using Optispice and it was fou...

an octahedral cobalt(iii) complex, trans-[(me2bpb)co(bzlan)2]clo4 (1), with h2me2bpb = n,n’-(4,5-dimethyl-1,2-phenylene)dipicolinamide and bzlan = benzylamine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, ir, uv-vis, and 1h nmr spectroscopy. the structure of this complex has been determined by x-ray crystallography. the me2bpb2– is a di-anionic tetradentate ligand furnishing a ...

ABSTRACT Novel realizations of reversible logic transforms using reversible butterfly diagrams are presented. Two design methods are shown using: (1) classical Kronecker recursion, and (2) parallel orderings of new classes of reversible butterfly diagrams. Quantum circuits that realize the new classes of butterfly diagrams are also introduced. Since the reduction of power consumption is a major...

In this paper, the structural properties of chemical reaction systems obeying the mass action law are investigated and related to the physical and chemical properties of the system. An entropy-based Lyapunov function candidate serves as a tool for proving structural stability, the existence of which is guaranteed by the second law of thermodynamics. The commonly used engineering model reduction...

Iron-doped tin oxide (Sn0.9Fe0.1O2), and specifically carbon-coated Sn0.9Fe0.1O2 (Sn0.9Fe0.1O2-C) provides high reversible capacity a reasonably low de-/lithiation potential owing to the combined conversion alloying mechanism. The initial (quasi-)amorphization during first lithiation, however, renders an in-depth understanding of reaction mechanism challenging. Herein, comprehensive investigati...

Investigation of the oxidation-reduction potentials of 2-oxy2,3-dihydroindole-3-propionic acid established the fact that the compound in both its reduced and oxidized forms has little effect on the platinum electrode (9). It has the ability, however, to react with dibromoindophenol, with hydrogen dioxide, molecular oxygen, and many other oxidizing agents. Interaction with these compounds produc...

To describe a patient with drug-induced parkinsonism whose baseline dopamine transporter SPECT resulted abnormal, but whose dopaminergic neuronal density was normal. Background: In vivo imaging techniques investigating presynaptic nigrostriatal function using dopamine transporter (DAT) SPECT or 18F-Dopa PET are currently considered to reliably distinguish a degenerative parkinsonism from a iatr...
