This work describes preparation and reaction chemistry of a terminal nickel(II) anilide complex supported by an unsymmetrically substituted diarylamido diphosphine ligand, [N(o-C(6)H(4)PPh(2))(o-C(6)H(4)P(i)Pr(2))](-) ([Ph-PNP-(i)Pr](-)). Treatment of NiCl(2)(DME) with H[Ph-PNP-(i)Pr] in THF at room temperature produced [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]NiCl as green crystals in 82% yield. Salt metathesis of [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]NiCl with LiNHPh(THF) in THF at -35 °C generated cleanly [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]NiNHPh as a greenish blue solid. The anilide complex deprotonates protic (e.g., PhOH and PhSH) and aprotic (e.g., trimethylsilylacetylene, phenylacetylene, and acetonitrile) acids in benzene at room temperature to give quantitatively [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]NiX (X = OPh, SPh, C≡CSiMe(3), C≡CPh, CH(2)CN). In addition, [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]NiNHPh also behaves as a nucleophile to react with acetyl chloride to yield [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]NiCl and N-phenylacetamide quantitatively. Carbonylation of [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]NiNHPh with carbon monoxide affords cleanly the carbamoyl derivative [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]Ni[C(O)NHPh]. The relative bond strengths of Ni-E in [Ph-PNP-(i)Pr]NiEPh (E = NH, O, S, C≡C) are assessed and discussed.

Bar Adsorptive Microextraction Approach for Trace Determination of Local Anesthetics in Urine Matrices.

Molecules

December 2024

The present work reports the development, optimization, and validation, of a methodology to determine lidocaine, procaine, tetracaine, and benzocaine in urine matrices. Two extractive preconcentration techniques, solid-phase microextraction (SPME) LC Tips and bar adsorptive microextraction (BAμE), were studied and applied to the four target anesthetics, followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. Several parameters that could affect microextraction and back-extraction were optimized using two different designs of experiments (Box-Behnken and full-factorial) to maximize extraction efficiency from aqueous media.

Successful awake intubation using Airtraq in a low-resource setting for a patient with severe post-burn contractures.

BMC Anesthesiol

January 2025

Department of Anesthesiology, Pharmacology, Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine, University Hospitals of Geneva, Geneva, 1205, Switzerland.

Background: In resource-limited settings, advanced airway management tools like fiberoptic bronchoscopes are often unavailable, creating challenges for managing difficult airways. We present the case of a 25-year-old male with post-burn contractures of the face, neck, and thorax in Nigeria, who had been repeatedly denied surgery due to the high risk of airway management complications. This case highlights how an awake intubation was safely performed using an Airtraq laryngoscope, the only device available, as fiberoptic intubation was not an option.

Often ill people are, first of all, patients with recurrent infectious and inflammatory diseases of the upper respiratory tract (URT). They put a significant financial burden on the healthcare system. The leading etiological factors of recurrent inflammatory diseases of URT, in addition to pathogenic bacterial microflora, are viral agents (viruses of the viral respiratory infections group, herpes viruses).

Accurate acetaminophen (APAP) determination using smartphone-based portable sensing hinges on developing sensing interfaces with effective catalytic performance and high electron transfer efficiency. Herein, we report that various Ni-based bimetallic-organic framework materials (MOFs) were synthesized through the hydrothermal method. These MOFs were incorporated with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) during the synthesis of chitosan-cationic guar gum hydrogels (HG).

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the effectiveness of various nanocages (C, Ge, AlP, Ni-C, Ni-Ge, Cr-C, and Cr-AlP) in delivering the anticancer drugs flutamide and cyclophosphamide, factoring in adsorption parameters and recovery times.
  • Results indicate that Ni-Ge and Cr-AlP nanocages show superior drug delivery capacity, with significantly lower recovery times compared to other nanostructures previously studied.
  • The research employs advanced computational methods to optimize the nanocage structures and calculate thermodynamic parameters, revealing enhanced capabilities due to the incorporation of Ni and Cr atoms.
