Molecular motors have found a wide range of applications, powering a transition from molecules to dynamic molecular systems for which their motion must be precisely tuned. To achieve this adjustment, strategies involving laborious changes in their design are often used. Herein, we show that control over a single methyl group allows a drastic change in rotational properties.

Analogously, the alane adducts with two Ind/Fl substituents (NHC)·AlHR13-18 (NHC = IiPr, IiPr, IMe; R = Ind, Fl) were obtained by using two equivalents of LiInd/LiFl. Elimination of indene and fluorene was induced thermally affording unusual dimeric and trimeric NHC-alane adducts {(NHC)·AlH}-μ-Fl 19-20 and {(NHC)·AlH-μ-R}21-23 (R = Ind, Fl; = 2, 3) with bridging indenyl and fluorenyl ligands.

Cognitive or social functions, level of symptom burden or emotional health are not usually assessed, nor are data available on long-term functional outcomes years after stroke.
Methods: Analysis of 1141 patients with AIS treated with IVT from two major German university hospitals between 2017 and 2020.
Objective: Administration of targeted therapies provides a promising treatment strategy for urachal adenocarcinoma (UrC) or primary bladder adenocarcinoma (PBAC); however, the selection of appropriate drugs remains difficult. Here, we aimed to establish a routine compatible methodological pipeline for the identification of the most important therapeutic targets and potentially effective drugs for UrC and PBAC.
Methods: Next-generation sequencing, using a 161 cancer driver gene panel, was performed on 41 UrC and 13 PBAC samples.
