Effect of sweet almond syrup versus methylphenidate in children with ADHD: A randomized triple-blind clinical trial.

Background And Purpose: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common health disorders among children. Some patients do not respond to methylphenidate or cannot tolerate its side effects. Sweet almond syrup as a Persian Medicine preparation has been used for many years.

A new Mo Schiff base complex: methanol[N'-(3-meth-oxy-2-oxidobenzyl-idene)benzohydrazidato]dioxido-molybdenum(VI).

In the title benzil-idene Schiff base molybdenum(VI) complex, [Mo(C(15)H(12)N(2)O(3))O(2)(CH(3)OH)], the Mo(VI) ion is coordinated by two oxide O atoms and by two O atoms and one N atom of the tridentate N'-(3-meth-oxy-2-oxidobenzyl-idene)benzo-hydrazidate (L) Schiff base ligand. The methanol O atom completes the distorted octa-hedral configuration of the Mo(VI) atom. Strong O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds form a C(5) chain around a 2(1) screw axis.
