Using Neural Networks in Order to Analyze Telework Adaptability across the European Union Countries: A Case Study of the Most Relevant Scenarios to Occur in Romania.

Our study addresses the issue of telework adoption by countries in the European Union and draws up a few feasible scenarios aimed at improving telework's degree of adaptability in Romania. We employed the dataset from the 2020 Eurofound survey on Living, Working and COVID-19 (Round 2) in order to extract ten relevant determinants of teleworking on the basis of 24,123 valid answers provided by respondents aged 18 and over: the availability of work equipment; the degree of satisfaction with the experience of working from home; the risks related to potential contamination with SARS-CoV-2 virus; the employees' openness to adhering to working-from-home patterns; the possibility of maintaining work-life balance objectives while teleworking; the level of satisfaction on the amount and the quality of work submitted, etc. Our methodology entailed the employment of SAS Enterprise Guide software to perform a cluster analysis resulting in a preliminary classification of the EU countries with respect to the degree that they have been able to adapt to telework.

Iron-bismuth halido compounds: molecules, clusters, and polymers.

The pentamethylcyclopentadienyl substituted iron-bismuth halides [Bi{FeCp*(CO)2}X2] [X = Cl (1), Br (2), I (3); Cp* = η(5)-C5Me5] were synthesized starting from [FeCp*(CO)2]2 and BiX3 (X = Cl, Br), followed by halogen exchange reaction with KI in case of 3. From a reaction mixture of [FeCp*(CO)2]2 with BiCl3 in CH2Cl2 to which CH3CN had been added, a novel coordination polymer of the formula [FeCp*(CO)2(CH3CN)]2n[Bi4Cl14]n (4) was isolated. The change of the molar ratio from 1:1 to 1:2 in the reaction of [FeCp*(CO)2]2 with BiBr3 afforded the novel ionic complex [{FeCp*(CO)2Br]2[Bi6Br22{FeCp*(CO)2}]·CH2Cl2 (5·CH2Cl2).

Organoantimony(III) compounds containing (imino)aryl ligands of the type 2-(RN=CH)C6H4 (R = 2',4',6'-Me3C6H2, 2',6'-(i)Pr2C6H3): bromides and chalcogenides.

The reaction of 2-(RN=CH)C(6)H(4)MgBr [R = 2',4',6'-Me(3)C(6)H(2) (R(1)), 2',6'-(i)Pr(2)C(6)H(3) (R(2))] [prepared from 2-(R(1)N=CH)C(6)H(4)Br (1) or 2-(R(2)N=CH)C(6)H(4)Br (2) and Mg] with SbCl(3) in a 2 : 1 and 1 : 1 molar ratio followed by treatment with an aqueous KBr solution gave [2-(R(1)N=CH)C(6)H(4)](2)SbBr (3) and [2-(R(2)N=CH)C(6)H(4)](2)SbBr (4) as well as [2-(R(1)N=CH)C(6)H(4)]SbBr(2) (6) and [2-(R(2)N=CH)C(6)H(4)]SbBr(2) (7). Treatment of 4 with Na(2)S·9H(2)O provided the dinuclear [{2-(R(2)N=CH)C(6)H(4)}(2)Sb](2)S (5). Heterocyclic species, i.
