Electronic coupling between the porphyrin units of a laterally-bridged dimanganese(III) bis-porphyrin 2 is explored using electrochemistry, spectroelectrochemistry and resonance-Raman spectroscopy. It is found that strong electronic interactions between the manganese(III) ion and the porphyrin macrocycle enhance the perturbations experienced by these bis-porphyrin systems when compared to relat...

tow new compound of type [(chelate)2cu-oh-cu(chelate)2] x3.nh2o, where chelate=1,10-phenanthroline; x=cl¯(n=3.5) and chelate=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine;  (n=5) have been synthesized and their properties investigated. the complexes show room temperature magnetic moment order of 1.0 b.m. per copper atom. the x-band esr spectrum of powdered samples at room temperature shows typical dm=1 transit...

A divinylphenylene bridged diruthenium complex constitutes an ensemble of three coupled redox systems. Spectroelectrochemistry provides evidence that the oxidation processes are dominated by the organic bridge.

the synthesis, spectroscopic and magnetic characterization of a series of new alkoxo-bridged binuclear copper (ii) compounds are described. all complexes have the general formula [cu (m-or)(l)2]2(clo4)2 · x h2o, in which m-or = ch3o-, c2h5o- or c3h7o-, l = 2-amino-4-methylpyridine (abbreviated a4pic) and 2-amino-5-methylpyridine ( abbreviated a5pic). the title compounds all consist of dinuclear...

Structure and bonding for a series of oxo-bridged and sulphur bridged alkali-metal centers (M-X-M: Li, Na and K; X = O, S) are studied for various M-X-M angles. The structures for these charge-transfer systems are compared with H-X-H. These chargetransfer systems show bonding and structures that are distinctively different from the covalent H-X-H molecules. The singlet-triplet gap for all of th...

objective: to assess the effect of combination of pulsed electromagnetic fields (pemf) with predatory stress on transected sciatic nerve regeneration in rats.  methods: in sham- operated group (sog) the nerve was manipulated and left intact. the 10-mm rat sciatic nerve gap was created in rats. in transected group (transected) nerve stumps were sutured to adjacent muscle and in vein graft group ...

The second generation of Very-High Speed Digital Subscriber Lines (VDSL2) represents a modern high-speed solution for present last-mile access networks. However, the transmission performance of VDSL2 lines is heavily dependent on the real conditions of symmetrical pairs and quads in local metallic lines and cables. One of the frequent elements in metallic access networks, which can negatively i...

Aromaticity is one of the most important concepts in organic chemistry. A variety of metalla-aromatic compounds have been recently prepared and in most of those examples, the metal participates only in a monocyclic ring. In contrast, metal-bridged bicyclic aromatic molecules, in which a metal is shared between two aromatic rings, have been less developed. Herein, we report the first metal-bridg...

A new synthetic strategy was devised leading to the formation of complexes, such as [Au(IPr)(CH2 COCH3)]. The approach capitalizes on the formation of a decomposition product observed in the course of the synthesis of [Au(IPr)(Cl)]. A library of gold acetonyl complexes containing the most common N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands has been synthesized. These acetonyl complexes are good synthon...

Bridged bithiazoles (5,5'-ethylene-4,4'-bithiazoles) are synthesized as a good chelating agent.
