Single crystals of TiO(2) rutile doped with Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu were grown with the flux method in a Na(2)B(4)O(7) melt. The samples, checked in their structural and phase homogeneity by x-ray diffraction and micro-Raman spectroscopy, were single-phase needle-shaped crystals several millimetres long. Paramagnetic and ferromagnetic behaviours at room temperature were observed and they are discussed also in connection with the magnetic properties of undoped TiO(2) crystals.

Copper(II) complexes of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde Schiff bases: synthesis, activity and computational studies.
Future Med Chem
January 2025
Department of Chemistry, University of Malakand, Dir Lower, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.
Background: Due to the divers biological applications of Cu(II) complexes, we in this study reports the various Cu(II) complexes. The study aims to synthesize and assess new Cu(II) complexes as powerful β-glucuronidase inhibitors.
Methods: Five Schiff base ligands and their complexes were synthesized, characterized, and screened against β-glucuronidase inhibitory activity.
Chamilactones A and B, Sesquiterpenes from the Endophytic Fungus F5.

Department of Natural Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacognosy, School of Pharmacy, Qingdao University, Qingdao 266071, People's Republic of China.
A bioassay-guided chemical investigation of the endophytic fungus F5 resulted in the discovery of two novel sesquiterpenes, chamilactones A and B ( and ), with a new 9,10-seco-15--isoilludalane carbon skeleton, together with several biosynthetically related precursors (-). Their structures and absolute configurations were elucidated by the analysis of MS, NMR, calculated C chemical shifts, ECD calculations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. It was proposed that an unprecedented carbon-carbon bond cleavage between C-9 and C-10 in - was the key step in the biosynthetic pathway of and .

January 2025
Plant Production Department, College of Food and Agricultural Sciences, King Saud University, P.O. Box. 2460, Riyadh, 11451, Saudi Arabia.
Background: The present research work was done to evaluate the anatomical differences among selected species of the family Bignoniaceae, as limited anatomical data is available for this family in Pakistan. Bignoniaceae is a remarkable family for its various medicinal properties and anatomical characterization is an important feature for the identification and classification of plants.
Methodology: In this study, several anatomical structures were examined, including stomata type and shape, leaf epidermis shape, epidermal cell size, and the presence or absence of trichomes and crystals (e.
Large exciton binding energy in a bulk van der Waals magnet from quasi-1D electronic localization.
Nat Commun
January 2025
Department of Physics, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.
Excitons, bound electron-hole pairs, influence the optical properties in strongly interacting solid-state systems and are typically most stable and pronounced in monolayer materials. Bulk systems with large exciton binding energies, on the other hand, are rare and the mechanisms driving their stability are still relatively unexplored. Here, we report an exceptionally large exciton binding energy in single crystals of the bulk van der Waals antiferromagnet CrSBr.

Two undescribed rearranged diterpenoids, lobopaucinoids A and B (1 and 2), along with thirteen undescribed lobane-type diterpenoids lobopaucinoids C-O (3-15) including a C (11) and two C (12 and 13) undescribed norditerpenoids, were isolated from the soft coral Lobophytum pauciflorum Ehrenberg (Sarcophytidae family) collected from Xisha Islands of the South China Sea. Additionally, two undescribed prenyleudesmane-type diterpenoids, lobopaucinoids P and Q (16 and 17), as well as two known lobane diterpenoids (18 and 19), were also obtained. Their structures were elucidated based on comprehensive spectroscopic data, Mosher's method, Mo(OAc) or Rh(OCOCF)-induced circular dichroism experiment, quantum chemical calculations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction and literature comparison.
