Ferrocene and nickelocene do not react with each other in solution; however, the large impact of the paramagnetic component on the ferrocene H NMR signal linewidth and relaxation times has been quantified. Co-crystallization of ferrocene and nickelocene at any ratio from a solvent can be explained with both pure substances crystallizing in the same space group 2/. As a new phenomenon, when a ferrocene single crystal is exposed to polycrystalline nickelocene in the absence of a solvent, the nickelocene migrates into the ferrocene crystal lattice and a mixed crystal is formed that retains its macroscopic shape.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on the long-term outcomes of patients who underwent laparoscopic gastric banding over a decade ago, involving 73 individuals with an average follow-up of 11.6 years.
  • The results indicated that reasons for reoperation included issues like band leakage and insufficient weight loss, with a notable decline in the survival rates of the banding over time—82.2% after 5 years and 53.4% after 10 years.
  • Notably, male patients and those older than 50 had better outcomes, suggesting that diligent follow-up and alternative options for those who experience banding failure can promote successful weight management in the long run.
