In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Mn(C5H7O2)2(NCS)(C5H5N)], the Mn(3+) cation is coordin-ated by two acetyl-acetonate anions, one terminal thio-cyanate anion and one pyridine ligand within a slightly distorted octa-hedron. The asymmetric unit consists of half a complex mol-ecule with the Mn(3+) cation, the thio-cyanate anion and the pyridine ligand located on a mirror plane. The ...

Two series of rod-like ortho-platinated complexes bound to a range of β-diketonate co-ligands are reported of the form [Pt(N^C)(O^O)]. The liquid crystal and luminescent properties are influenced through the introduction of different β-diketonates (O^O) as well as through the presence of a fused cyclopentene ring on the N^C-coordinated 2-phenylpyridine ligand. For metal complexes, smectic phase...

The redetermination of the title compound, [Sn(CH3)2(C5H7O2)2] or SnMe2(acac)2, from CCD data recorded at 100 K basically confirms the previous study based on integrated film data recorded at room temperature [Miller & Schlemper (1972 ▸). Inorg. Chem.12, 677-681], but reveals a remarkable shrinkage of the a axis [7.12 (1) > 6.7694 (4) Å]. The mol-ecule belongs to point group Ci with the SnIV at...

The asymmetric unit of the title tetra-nuclear niobium(V) compound, [Nb(4)(C(2)H(5)O)(8)(C(5)H(7)O(2))(4)O(4)], contains two Nb(V) atoms, two bridging O atoms, two acetyl-acetonate and four ethano-late ligands. Each Nb(V) atom is six-coordinated by the bridging O atoms, two ethano-late and one chelating acetyl-acetonate ligands. The Nb-O distances vary between 1.817 (2) and 2.201 (2) Å and the ...

In the title compound, [Mo(C(5)HF(6)O(2))(3)], the unit cell is built up by three independent Mo(III) atoms located on two different threefold axes. The three independent mol-ecules are roughly identical and each Mo(III) atom is surrounded by three chelating hexa-fluoro-acetonate ligands in a three-bladed propeller-like arrangement, as observed in related compounds with acetyl-acetonate-type li...

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Ir(C(17)H(10)NO)(2)(C(5)H(7)O(2))], the Ir(III) atom is O,O'-chelated by the acetyl-acetonate group and C,N-chelated by the 2-aryl-naphth[1,2-d]oxazole groups. The six-coordinate metal atom displays a distorted octa-hedral geometry.

Introduction: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is an autoimmune disease with uncertain etiopathogenecity and no definitive treatment. Considering the recurrent nature of OLP, finding an adjunctive treatment to minimize the risk of chronicity and recurrence of OLP and to decrease the adverse effects of corticosteroids can be promising. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of a mixture of hyaluronic a...

Twenty-six patients with frozen shoulder syndrome (Stage 2 and 3) were included in this study conducted at Dr. Kariadi General Hospital, Semarang, Indonesia and randomly allocated into 2 groups: 40 mg triamcinolone intra-articular injection and triamcinolone oral tablets. The result showed that triamcinolone intra-articular injection group "cured" rate was 5.8 times higher at week one compared ...
