In the title compound, di-phenyl-tin(IV) diiso-thio-cyanate, [Sn(NCS)(CH)] or PhSn(NCS), comparatively long tin-nitro-gen and short tin-sulfur bonds prove that the ambidentate iso-thio-cyanate ion acts as a bridge between two neighboring, octa-hedrally coordinated tin atoms. As a result, the mol-ecules lose their individuality in favor of a layered coordination polymer that represents a new type of mol-ecular inter-actions in the structural chemistry of diorganotin(IV) dihalides/pseudohalides. The tin atom is located on a center of inversion.

In the hydrated title complex, [Fe(dpa)(N)]·HO (dpa is 2,2'-di-pyridyl-amine, CHN), the Fe ion is coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral manner by two neutral, chelating dpa ligands and two anionic, monodentate azide (N ) ions in a -configuration. Distortion results from different Fe-N bond lengths [2.1397 (13)-2.

An imbalance between cardiovascular parasympathetic and sympathetic activity towards sympathetic predominance has been implicated in the pathogenesis of treatment-resistant arterial hypertension and heart failure. Arterial baroreceptors control efferent cardiovascular autonomic activity and have, therefore, been recognized as potential treatment targets. Baroreflex activation therapy through electrical carotid sinus stimulation is a device-based approach to modulate cardiovascular autonomic activity.

Article Synopsis
  • Magnesium supplementation was tested in a double-blind study involving 27 patients with metabolic syndrome to see its effects on blood pressure and metabolic health.
  • After 12 weeks, patients taking magnesium showed significant reductions in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as well as lower levels of interleukin-6, which is related to inflammation.
  • Ionized magnesium levels increased notably, while the calcium-to-magnesium ratio decreased, indicating improvements in magnesium balance without significant changes in serum magnesium levels.

Developing new anticancer agents can be useful, with the ability to diagnose and treat cancer worldwide. Previously, we focused on examining the effects of nonoxidovanadium(IV) complexes on insulin mimetic and cytotoxicity activity. In this study, in addition to the cytotoxic activity, we evaluated their bioimaging properties.
