The reaction of [Mn3O(O2CR)6(py)3](ClO4) (R = Me, Et) with methyl 2-pyridyl ketone oxime (mpkoH) in a 1:3 molar ratio in MeOH/MeCN leads to [Mn3O(O2CR)3(mpko)3](ClO4) in 80-90% isolated yield. Ferromagnetic exchange interactions between the three MnIII ions in the nonplanar [MnIII3O]7+ triangular core lead to a spin ground state of S = 6; single-crystal studies reveal the temperature and sweep rate dependent hysteresis loops expected for a single-molecule magnet.

Background: The brainstem locus coeruleus (LC) is among the first sites of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, accruing hyperphosphorylated tau as early as in young adulthood. Animal studies indicate that the LC is crucially involved in sleep-wake regulation, a recently established factor contributing to AD-related pathophysiological processes. However, the associations between LC integrity and sleep-wake phenotypes in the context of AD pathology remain poorly characterized in humans.

Background: Accelerated long-term forgetting (ALF) is a form of episodic memory impairment where information is retained normally over 30-60 minutes but lost at an accelerated rate over subsequent days to weeks, and is a very early - perhaps the earliest - cognitive change in both autosomal dominant and sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the neuroanatomical changes underlying ALF in AD have remained elusive. We explored associations between ALF and focal cortical thickness in presymptomatic autosomal dominant AD (ADAD).

The resultant complexes were investigated for their magnetic properties in order to elucidate the impact of modification of the coordinating P-O bond environment either by increasing steric bulk and/or introduction of a third P-N bond at the central phosphorus atom. Magnetic studies revealed substantial energy barriers (Ueff) of 640 K and 560 K for Dy compounds 1 and 2, respectively, rendering them as some of the best-performing air-stable SIMs amongst the class of SIMs with D5h symmetry.

Design and synthesis of high-performance single-molecule magnets (SMMs) have long been a research focus. Inspired by the best dysprosium(III) metallocene SMMs and dysprosium(III) bis(methanediide) SMMs, we assumed dysprosium SMMs, which had electrical neutrality by combining the two types of ligands. As the Dy center is coordinated by one (substituted-)cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligand and one methanediide ({C(PPhNSiMe)}) ligand on the axial sites, this ideal structure with linear C-Dy-Cp would strengthen the magnetic anisotropy and exhibit excellent SMM properties.

Advances in the characterization of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) have unveiled a remarkably complex and diverse interaction landscape, including coupled folding and binding, highly dynamic complexes, multivalent interactions, and even interactions between entirely disordered proteins. Here we review recent examples of IDP binding mechanisms elucidated by experimental techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer, and stopped-flow fluorescence. These techniques provide insights into the structural details of transition pathways and complex intermediates, and they capture the dynamics of IDPs within complexes.
