Extended chains in vanadium O-centered complex [VOSeI]: synthesis and structure.

O-centered tetranuclear vanadium selenoiodide [VOSeI] (1) was synthesized by an ampoule method from the elements with addition of water. Its X-ray crystal structure (space group 2/, = 21.146(2) Å, = 5.

Intraspecific Variation of Brown Rat Rattus norvegicus in Russia by D-Loop mtDNA Data.

For the first time in Russia, the intraspecific structure of the brown rat Rattus norvegicus was studied using the mitochondrial control region (D-loop) as a molecular marker. The mtDNA sequence was determined in brown rats from eight regions of European and Asian Russia. Three rat clades were identified, including one in European Russia and two in Asian Russia.

New 3-Aminopropylsilatrane Derivatives: Synthesis, Structure, Properties, and Biological Activity.

The biologically active compound 3-aminopropylsilatrane (a compound with a pentacoordinated silicon atom) underwent an aza-Michael reaction with various acrylates and other Michael acceptors. Depending on the molar ratio, the reaction yielded Michael mono- or diadducts (11 examples) containing functional groups (silatranyl, carbonyl, nitrile, amino, etc.).

Production, Mechanical and Functional Properties of Long-Length TiNiHf Rods with High-Temperature Shape Memory Effect.

In the present work, the possibility of manufacturing long-length TiNiHf rods with a lowered Hf content and a high-temperature shape memory effect in the range of 120-160 °C was studied. Initial ingots with 1.5, 3.
