3 + 3 optically active macrocyclic Schiff bases were synthesized in the reaction between 4-tert-butyl-2,6-diformylphenol with (1R,2R)-(+)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine (S1) or (1S,2S)-(-)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine (S1a). The new compounds were spectroscopically characterised by NMR, IR, X-ray (S1a), UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. The S1a molecule creates channels with distances between oxygen atoms ranging from 5.

Two dinuclear copper(II) complexes with macrocyclic Schiff bases and were prepared by the template reaction of ()-(+)-1,1'-binaphthalene-2,2'-diamine and 2-hydroxy-5-methyl-1,3-benzenedicarboxaldehyde , or 4--butyl-2,6-diformylphenol with copper(II) chloride dihydrate. The compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods. X-ray crystal structure determination and DFT calculations confirmed their geometry in solution and in the solid phase.

Two macrocyclic Schiff bases derived from o-phenylenediamine and 2-hydroxy-5-methylisophthalaldehyde or 2-hydroxy-5-tert-butyl-1,3-benzenedicarboxaldehyde , respectively, were obtained and characterized by X-ray crystallography and spectroscopy (UV-vis, fluorescence and IR). X-ray crystal structure determination and DFT calculations for compounds confirmed their geometry in solution and in the solid phase. Moreover, intermolecular interactions in the crystal structure of and were analyzed using 3D Hirshfeld surfaces and the related 2D fingerprint plots.

Two Zn(ii) complexes, K1 and K2, obtained from the template reaction of zinc(ii) acetate dihydrate with -phenylenediamine and 2-hydroxy-5-methylisophthalaldehyde (K1) or 2-hydroxy-5--butyl-1,3-benzenedicarboxaldehyde (K2), respectively, were characterized by X-ray crystallography, spectroscopic (UV-vis, fluorescence and IR), and thermal methods. In the complex [Zn(MeO)(OH)(L1)]·2HO K1, there are two binding sites in the macrocyclic ligand and they are occupied by zinc(ii) cations found in slightly distorted square pyramidal environment. The zinc(ii) cations are connected by slightly asymmetric oxo bridges with a Zn1-O14-Zn1[-, - + 1, - + 1] angle of 104.

Background: Parental self-efficacy describes parents' self-perceived competence in fulfilling their roles. The Parenting Sense of Competence Scale (PSOC) is one of the most commonly used self-report instruments, allowing for parental self-efficacy measurement.

Methods: This paper summarizes the results of three studies (total N = 2088) conducted to examine factor structure, internal consistency, test-retest reliability and criterion validity of the Polish version of PSOC (PSOC-PL).
