4-Bromo-,'-di-phenyl-benzimidamide '-oxide.

The title compound, CHBrNO, crystallizes with two similar mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The extended structure features dimers linked by pairs of N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The HNCNO moiety of the title compound shows delocalization over the N-C-N part, as evidenced by the similar C-N bond distances.

Distinct neural correlates of accuracy and bias in the perception of facial emotion expressions.

We investigated neural correlates of Emotion Recognition Accuracy (ERA) using the Assessment of Contextualized Emotions (ACE). ACE infuses context by presenting emotion expressions in a naturalistic group setting and distinguishes between accurately perceiving intended emotions (signal), and bias due to perceiving additional, secondary emotions (noise). This social perception process is argued to induce perspective taking in addition to pattern matching in ERA.

Utility of Dual-Energy Computed Tomography in lesion characterization and treatment planning for peripheral Chronic Total Occlusions: A comprehensive analysis of crossing difficulty.

Purpose: To investigate whether Dual-Energy Computed Tomography (DECT) could be useful in the lesion characterization and endovascular treatment planning of symptomatic patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) due to Chronic Total Occlusions (CTO).

Materials And Methods: Between 2018 and 2022, 60 symptomatic patients (52 male, age 71 years) with peripheral arterial CTO underwent DECT angiography before percutaneous endovascular treatment. Patients were classified, according to guidewire crossing difficulty into four categories, which were subsequently correlated with DECT values, including Dual Energy Index (DEI) and Effective Z (Zeff).

Refreshing the Legacy of Rudolf Nietzki: Benzene-1,2,4,5-tetramine and Related Compounds.

Like hydroquinones and quinones, aromatic compounds with multiple NH groups and the corresponding quinonediimines have the potential to serve as components of useful redox-active organic materials. Benzene-1,2,4,5-tetramine (BTA) and its oxidized form BTA-H offer a promising redox pair of this type, and the compounds have proven to be useful in many areas of chemistry. However, key aspects of their behavior have remained poorly studied, such as the nature of their protonated forms, their preferred molecular structures, their reactivity, and their organization in condensed phases.
