Article Synopsis
  • Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is an immune-mediated disease that leads to inflammation in cartilage areas and can result in significant health issues.
  • A study followed 26 RP patients in Iran, analyzing their remission status and outcomes, revealing that median symptom control took 5 weeks and sustained remission took 23 weeks.
  • Despite treatment, 80.8% of patients experienced RP-related damage, with ear deformity and osteoporosis being the most common issues, although long-term and medication-free remissions were achievable for some.

The reaction of cadmium nitrate dihydrate, propane-1,2-diamine and pyridine-2,6-dicarb-oxy-lic acid in a 1:1:2 molar ratio in an aqueous solution resulted in the formation of the title compound, (C(3)H(12)N(2))[Cd(C(7)H(3)NO(4))(2)]·2H(2)O or (p-1,2-daH(2))-[Cd(pydc)(2)]·2H(2)O (where p-1,2-da is propane-1,2-diamine and pydcH(2) is pyridine-2,6-dicarb-oxy-lic acid). The Cd(II) ion is coordinated by four O and two N atoms of two pydc ligands in a distorted octa-hedral environment. The structure also contains two uncoordinated water mol-ecules.

The crystal structure of the title compound, C(4)H(15)N(3) (2+)·C(7)H(3)NO(4) (2-), consists of diethyl-enetriaminium (2,2'-azanediyl-diethanaminium) cations and pyridine-2,5-dicarboxyl-ate anions, which are linked by N-H⋯O, N-H⋯N and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. C-H⋯π inter-actions are also observed. In the anion, the carboxyl-ate groups are oriented at dihedral angles of 11.
