The complete mol-ecule of the title hydrazine carbodi-thio-ate complex, [Ni(C19H21N2S2)2], is generated by the application of a centre of inversion. The NiII atom is N,S-chelated by two hydrazinecarbodi-thio-ate ligands, which provide a trans-N2S2 donor set that defines a distorted square-planar geometry. The conformation of the five-membered chelate ring is an envelope with the NiII atom being...

The pyridine-rich complex [NiII(LN2Py3)(MeCN)](ClO4)2 (1) acts as an efficient electro- and photocatalyst in the generation of H2 from water. Observed TONs reach 1050 for electrocatalysis and a remarkable 3500 for photocatalysis. Experimental and DFT data support the ligand-reduced [NiIL˙] as the catalytically active species, contrasting with the [CoIL] observed for cobalt catalysts.

Phase-resolved VLT spectroscopy of the bursting Low Mass X-ray Binaries 4U 1636536/V801 Ara and 4U 1735-444/V926 Sco is presented. Doppler images of the NIII λ4640 Bowen transition reveal compact spots which we attribute to fluorescent emission from the donor star and enable us to define a new set of spectroscopic ephemerides. We measure Kem = 277 ± 22 km s and Kem = 226 ± 22 km s from the NIII...

A series of symmetric multidentate Schiff base ligands 1–13 based on the N‚N′-4‚4′-ethylenebiphenylbis-3-methoxysalicylideneimine for used to bind various transition metals detection of K, AgI‚ CuII, Sr II Co II and NiII at trace levels in real-world samples has been synthesized purified and their structures was characterized.

The pond turtle (Trachemys scripta elegans) exhibits a notably sluggish pupillary light reflex (PLR), with pupil constriction developing over several minutes following light onset. In the present study, we examined the dynamics of the efferent branch of the reflex in vitro using preparations consisting of either the isolated head or the enucleated eye. Stimulation of the oculomotor nerve (nIII)...

Herein we report a highly efficient method for nickel-catalyzed C-N bond formation between sulfonamides and aryl electrophiles. This technology provides generic access to a broad range of N-aryl and N-heteroaryl sulfonamide motifs, which are widely represented in drug discovery. Initial mechanistic studies suggest an energy-transfer mechanism wherein C-N bond reductive elimination occurs from a...
