The title compound, [CaCo2(C22H30N4O6)2](ClO4)2·1.36H2O or {Ca[Co(H-2L1)]2}·2ClO4·1.36H2O {where L1 is 4,10-bis-[(3-hy-droxy-4-pyron-2-yl)meth-yl]-1,7-dimethyl-1,4,7,10-tetra-aza-cyclo-dodecane}, is a trinuclear complex whose asymmetric unit comprises a quarter of the {Ca[Co(H-2L1)]2}2+ trinuclear complex, half of a perchlorate ion and 0.34-water mol-ecules. In the neutral [Co(H-2L1)] moiety, t...

In this work, we report the electrochemical response of a family Co(II) complexes, [CoII(L)3]2+ and [CoII(L’)2]2+ (L = 2,2’-bipyridine, 1,10-phenanthroline, 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, 5,6-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline; L’ terpyridine 4-chloro-terpyridine), in presence absence CO2 order to understand role redox potential molecular structure on catal...

The air-stable mononuclear Co(ii) compounds [CoII(Tpm)2][ClO4]2 (1, Tpm = tris(pyrazol-1-yl)methane), [CoII(Tpm)2][BPh4]2·2MeCN (2) with trigonal antiprismatic geometry (trigonally elongated octahedral geometry) are reported. Magnetic and theoretical studies reveal that the complexes exhibit single-molecule magnet behavior with uniaxial anisotropy and a huge energy difference between ground and...

To aid in identifying key predators of Proconiini sharpshooter species present in California, we developed and tested molecular diagnostic markers for the glassy-winged sharpshooter, Homalodisca coagulata (Say), and smoke-tree sharpshooter, Homalodisca liturata (Ball) (Homoptera: Cicadellidae). Two different types of markers were compared, those targeting single-copy sequence characterized ampl...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Co(NO3)2(C12H12N2S)2] n , contains a bis-(pyridin-3-ylmeth-yl)sulfane (L) ligand, an NO3- anion and half a CoII cation, which lies on an inversion centre. The CoII cation is six-coordinated, being bound to four pyridine N atoms from four symmetry-related L ligands. The remaining coordination sites are occupied by two O atoms from two symmetry-related ...

Due to their ability form stable molecular complexes that have tailor-made properties, terpyridine ligands are of great interest in chemistry and material science. In this regard, we prepared two with different fluorinated phenyl rings on the backbone. The corresponding CoII FeII were synthesized characterized by single-crystal X-ray structural analysis, electrochemistry temperature-dependent S...

The Leishmania tarentolae cytochrome oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1) subunit II (COII) and maxicircle unidentified reading frame 3 (MURF3) mRNAs are edited internally by the addition of four and five uridine residues, respectively, which eliminate -1 and +1 reading frameshifts in the gene sequences. The editing events in COII are conserved in three kinetoplastid species, and those in MURF3 are conserved i...

We assessed the in vitro toxicity of tenofovir (TFV) and compared it with those of zidovudine (AZT), didanosine (ddI), ritonavir (RTV), and lopinavir (LPV) alone and in combination in human renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (RPTECs). The cells were treated with various concentrations and combinations of the tested antiretrovirals for up to 22 days, and cytotoxicity was determined. In addit...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Co(NCS)2(C6H6NS)4]·CH3OH, consists of one cobalt(II) cation, two thio-cyanate anions, four pyridine-4-carbo-thio-amide ligands and one methanol mol-ecule that are located in general positions. The CoII cations are coordinated by two terminal N-bonding thio-cyanate anions and four N-bonding pyridine-4-carbo-thio-amide ligands, resulting in discrete and...
