The first through fourth C-H stretching overtone regions of ethene were measured by photoacoustic spectroscopy of room-temperature molecules and action spectroscopy of jet-cooled molecules. The rotational cooling led to improved resolution in the action spectra, turning these spectra into key players in determining the multiple band appearance in each region, their types, and origins. These manifolds arise from strong couplings of the C-H stretches to doorway states and were analyzed in terms of a simplified joint local-mode/normal-mode (LM)/(NM) model and an equivalent NM model, accounting for principal resonances. The diagonalization of the LM/NM and NM vibrational Hamiltonians and the least-square fittings revealed model parameters, enabling assignment of A- and B-type bands. These bands behave differently through the V = 2-4 manifolds, showing coupling to doorway states for the former but not for the latter. The energy flow out of the fourth C-H overtone is governed by the interaction with bath states due to the increase in the density of states.

Binuclear silver(I) and copper(I) complexes, and , with bridging diphenylphosphine ligands were prepared. In , the silver(I) center is located inside a trigonal plane composed of three phosphorus donors from three separate and bridging dppm ligands. The fourth coordination site is filled with neighboring silver(I) ions.

Background And Purpose: Despite evolving management strategies for atypical cartilaginous tumors (ACT)-shifting from radical resection to intralesional curettage and "wait-and-scan" approaches-there remains no universal consensus on optimal treatment. We primarily aimed to evaluate disease-specific and progression-free survival following intralesional curettage and adjuvant phenol treatment of ACTs. Secondary aims included assessing surgical complications, the need for additional interventions, and an overview of long-term follow-up.

An efficient synthesis of continuously substituted quinoline derivatives palladium-catalyzed intramolecular 6- imidoylative cyclization of -alkenyl aryl isocyanides with (hetero)aryl halides or vinylic triflates has been developed. The reaction proceeds through the concerted metalation-deprotonation (CMD) mechanism by activation of a vinyl C-H bond with imidoylpalladium assisted by the carboxylate.

The vast potential of medical big data to enhance healthcare outcomes remains underutilized due to privacy concerns, which restrict cross-center data sharing and the construction of diverse, large-scale datasets. To address this challenge, we developed a deep generative model aimed at synthesizing medical data to overcome data sharing barriers, with a focus on breast ultrasound (US) image synthesis. Specifically, we introduce CoLDiT, a conditional latent diffusion model with a transformer backbone, to generate US images of breast lesions across various Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) categories.

The cocrystallization of the ditopic halogen bond donors 2,5-, 2,6-, 3,5-bis(iodoethynyl)pyridines with the dipyrimidyls 1,2-bis(5-pyrimidyl)ethyne and 1,4-bis(5-pyrimidyl)butadiyne is explored. The cocrystal components have complementary shapes and functional groups so that the noncovalent C-I···N halogen bonding and C-H···N hydrogen bonding interactions are complementary resulting in 1:1 cocrystals with the ditopic halogen bond accepting bipyrimidyls. The cocrystals feature π-stacked planar sheets of alternating bis(iodoalkynes) and bipyrimidyls held together in one direction by I···N halogen bonds and in the roughly orthogonal direction by pyridine-pyridine and pyrimidine-pyrimidine C-H···N hydrogen bonds.
