The 1, 3-bis(trimethyl silyl)ether of p-tert-butyl calix[4]arene, Rt-Bu)Ca1ixTMS21112, has beensynthesized and used as a dianionic ligand for "Sn". The complex of [(t-Bu)Ca1ixTMS2]Snexhibits exo and endo isomerism. The structural properties of [(Rp)Ca1ixTMS2]Sn, (Rpara= H,CH3, t-Bu) and the inter conversion of exoendo isomers were investigated by using of SCF-MOPM3 method.

Assembly of Fe(II), 3-cyanopyridine and [Au(CN)2](-) affords, in one-pot reaction, three coordination polymers that represent a genuine example of supramolecular isomerism with strong influence in the spin crossover regime of the Fe(II) ions.

Prompt publication of brief reports of important discoveries in physics may be secured by addressing them to this department. Closing dates for this department are, for the first issue of the month, the eighteenth of tke preceding month, for the second issue, the third of tke month. Because of the late closing dates for the section no proof can be shorn to authors. The Board of Editors does not...

The isomerism effect on the aggregate emission properties of perylene diimide derivatives is studied. Banking their bright emission, a cellular imaging test based nanoparticles also conducted.

lefty-1, lefty-2, and nodal are expressed on the left side of developing mouse embryos and are implicated in left-right (L-R) determination. The role of lefty-1 was examined by analyzing mutant mice lacking this gene. The lefty-1-deficient mice showed a variety of L-R positional defects in visceral organs. Unexpectedly, however, the most common feature of lefty-1-/- mice was thoracic left isome...

Supramolecular isomerism for coordination networks refers to the existence of different architectures having the same building blocks and identical stoichiometries. For a given building block, different arrangements can lead to the formation of a series of supramolecular isomers. Two one-dimensional Co(II) coordination polymers based on N,N'-bis(pyridin-3-yl)oxalamide (BPO), both catena-poly[[[...

Left bronchial isomerism is a rare condition characterized by a bronchial structure on the right side that is a mirror image of the left side. In this report, we record our experience with a 62-year-old female lung cancer patient in whom left bronchial isomerism was discovered during surgery using a thoracoscope. A right upper pulmonary lobectomy was successfully completed, the key to which was...

In lipid biochemistry, a fundamental question is how the potential number of fatty acids increases with their chain length. Here, we show that it grows according to the famous Fibonacci numbers when cis/trans isomerism is neglected. Since the ratio of two consecutive Fibonacci numbers tends to the Golden section, 1.618, organisms can increase fatty acid variability approximately by that factor ...

The cardiac specialized conduction tissue was studied by serial sectioning in 13 cases of situs ambiguus. In four cases of right isomerism, we found paired sinus nodes in relation to a crista terminalis, and in each case a sling of conduction tissue between two atrioventricular nodes was present regardless of the ventricular morphology or cardiac position. In the cases with left isomerism, the ...

Sixteen isomers of heterometallic germanium clusters have been analysed in this review. There are two types of isomerism, distortion (x 15) and cis – trans (x 1) and cis – isomer contains two crystallographically independent molecules. Distortion isomers, differing only by degree of distortion in Ge – L, Ge – M (M = metal) distances and L – Ge L (L = ligand) angles. The data are discussed with ...
