Developing N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) chemistry of simple organomagnesium compounds, this study reports the synthesis, X-ray crystallographic, and NMR spectroscopic characterization of three such new carbene complexes. The 1 : 1 alkyl magnesium amide : carbene complexes nBuMg(TMP)·IPr 1 and nBuMg(HMDS)·IPr 2 both exist as mononuclear complexes in the crystal but differ in solution as 2 remain...

In this study, paraphenylenediamine was first bonded to the fullerene and was optimized geometrically by Using the quantum chemistry methods. paraphenylenediamine was examined in the isolated state and in the fullerene-bonded state via carbon atoms. In the theoretical research, the simulation was done by the Gauss View software. Then, the bonding orbital calculation was done by using the NBO me...

Five-coordinate rhenium(I) hydride complexes of the type [Re(Br)(H)(NO)(PR3)2] (R = Cy 1a, iPr 1b) were reacted with terminal alkynes R1C�CH (R1 = Ph, SiEt3, H), yielding 18-electron �2alkyne adducts [Re(Br)(H)(NO)(PR3)2(�2-HC�CR1)] (R1 = Ph (R = Cy 2a, iPr 2b), SiEt3 (R = Cy 4a, iPr 4b), H (R = Cy 6a, iPr 6b)). Alkyne insertion into the Re−H bond led to the formation of rhenium(I) �1-vinyl der...

AIM OF THE STUDY Intrathoracic pressure regulation (IPR) is a novel, noninvasive therapy intended to increase cardiac output and blood pressure in hypotensive states by generating a negative end expiratory pressure of -12 cm H2O between positive pressure ventilations. In this first feasibility case-series, we tested the hypothesis that IPR improves End tidal (ET) CO2 during cardiopulmonary resu...

The antitumor activity of pristine C60 fullerene aqueous solution (C60FAS) compared to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and pyrrole derivative 1-(4-Cl-benzyl)-3-Cl-4-(CF3-fenylamino)-1H-pyrrol-2.5-dione (MI-1) cytostatic drugs was investigated and analyzed in detail using the model of colorectal cancer induced by 1.2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) in rats. The number, size, and location of the tumors were measur...

BACKGROUND Intrathoracic pressure regulation (IPR) therapy has been shown to increase blood pressure in hypotensive patients. The potential value of this therapy in patients with hypotension secondary to trauma with bleeding is not well understood. We hypothesized that IPR would non-invasively and safely enhance blood pressure in spontaneously breathing patients with trauma-induced hypotension....

The 15e square-planar complexes [Co(PCPMe-iPr)Cl] (2a) and [Co(PCP-tBu)Cl] (2b), respectively, react readily with NaBH4 to afford complexes [Co(PCPMe-iPr)(η2-BH4)] (4a) and [Co(PCP-tBu)(η2-BH4)] (4b) in high yields, as confirmed by IR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, and elemental analysis. The borohydride ligand is symmetrically bound to the cobalt center in η2-fashion. These compounds are...

The reactivity of the trigonal bipyramidal iron(I) complex [SiP(iPr)(3)]Fe(N(2)) ([SiP(iPr)(3)] = (2-iPr(2)PC(6)H(4))(3)Si(-)) toward organoazides has been examined. 1-Adamantylazide was found to coordinate the iron center to form stable [SiP(iPr)(3)]Fe(eta(1)-N(3)Ad). Aryl azides instead afforded unstable [SiP(iPr)(3)]Fe(N(3)Ar) species that decayed gradually to regenerate [SiP(iPr)(3)]Fe(N(2)...

The reaction of the imidazolyl-4(5)-phosphane ligands 2-isopropylimidazol-4(5)yl-diphenylphosphane (4-MIP(iPr)) and tris(2-isopropylimidazol-4(5)yl)phosphane (4-TIP(iPr)) towards gold(I) has been explored and compared to those of analogous 1-methylimidazol-2-ylphosphane ligands. The structure of [(4-MIP(iPr))AuCl] () shows a linear P-Au-Cl coordination, whereas the 4-TIP(iPr) ligand forms a din...
