The impact of registration of clinical trials units: the UK experience.

Clinical research networks have been formed, and some general oversight functions for clinical research have been centralised. One of the initiatives is a registration programme for Clinical Trials Units involved in the coordination of clinical trials.

Intramolecularly stabilised group 10 metal stannyl and stannylene complexes: multi-pathway synthesis and observation of platinum-to-tin alkyl transfer.

Reaction of [PdClMe(P^N)2] with SnCl2 followed by Cl-abstraction leads to apparent Pd-C bond activation, resulting in methylstannylene species trans-[PdCl{(P^N)2SnClMe}][BF4] (P^N = diaryl phosphino-N-heterocycle). In contrast, reaction of Pt analogues with SnCl2 leads to Pt-Cl bond activation, resulting in methylplatinum species trans-[PtMe{(P^N)2SnCl2}][BF4]. Over time, they isomerise to methylstannylene species, indicating that both kinetic and thermodynamic products can be isolated for Pt, whereas for Pd only methylstannylene complexes are isolated.
