a binuclear macrocyclic ligand containing dissimilar n(amine)2o2 and n(imine)2o2 coordination sites sharing two phenolic oxygen atoms, was prepared by cyclic condensation of dialdehyde precursor l1h2 with 1,3-diaminopropane. the ligand includes two propionitrile pendant arms on the amine nitrogen atoms. the homobimetallic complex [znl2zn(oac)]pf6 was synthesized by one step procedure. heterobim...

Coordination of Zn(2+) to a ditopic phenanthroline-macrocycle receptor takes place in three steps, the first one being the coordination to the phenanthroline, followed by the slow movement of the metal to the polyamine macrocycle and a final re-arrangement to coordinate the pendent arm.

Dear editors: Twin spotting (didymosis) means the coexistence of discrete areas of skin in close spatial and temporal proximity, differing clinically and genetically from each other, and from the background skin. This is a type of mosaicism caused by somatic recombination. A growing list of previously unexplained skin conditions has been attributed to this phenomenon.1 We describe the case of a...

The complexation of representative lanthanides with three calix[4]arenes functionalized with four pyrazine pendent arms containing different substituents such as carbamoyl dioctyl (), diisopropyl phosphonate (), and diphenyl phosphoryl () was investigated in water-saturated 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (BumimTf2N) by absorption spectroscopy, luminescence spectr...

let g be a simple connected graph and {v1, v2, …, vk} be the set of pendent (vertices ofdegree one) vertices of g. the reduced distance matrix of g is a square matrix whose (i,j)–entry is the topological distance between vi and vj of g. in this paper, we obtain the spectrumof the reduced distance matrix of thorn graph of g, a graph which obtained by attaching somenew vertices to pendent vertice...

Chemical reduction of a tripodal Cu(II)-F complex containing pendent hydroxyl groups results in the partial dissociation of a F(-) ligand from Cu. The resulting Cu(I) complex is characterized as containing an outer sphere F(-) anion 'captured' by hydrogen bonds. The pendent hydroxyl groups were found to be crucial for reductive stability.

Let G be a graph with n vertices. The nullity of G, denoted by η(G), is the multiplicity of the eigenvalue zero in its spectrum. In this paper, we characterize the graphs (resp. bipartite graphs) with pendent vertices and nullity η, where 0 < η ≤ n. Moreover, the minimum (resp. maximum) number of edges for all (connected) graphs with pendent vertices and nullity η are determined, and the extrem...
