By virtue of its magnetic moment and variable valencies, the paddlewheel ruthenium dimer is a desirable molecular building block for the construction of functional networks. If in addition to the Ru open axial site the organic ligand is designed to allow transversal connections, a wider range of structural possibilities is expected. The organic ligand can also be modified to introduce other functionalities. In the present study we employed a diphosphonate containing a protonated amine, 1-ammoniummethylenediphosphonate [NHCH(PO); (Hamdp)], as the ligand to construct paddlewheel Ru(Hamdp) building block. Three networks of different structural dimensionalities were obtained. (HO)[Ru(Hamdp)] () forms one-dimensional chain of = 1 Ru bridged at axial positions through Ru-O bonds. From as a starting material, its reaction with lanthanide ions results in the bimetallic Dy(HO)[Ru(Hamdp)][Ru(Hamdp)(HO)][Ru(Hamdp)(amdp)]·12HO (), which has a pillared-bilayer structure and Yb[Ru(Hamdp)][Ru(Hamdp)(HO)]·15HO (), which is a three-dimensional open framework, both contain mixed-valent Ru units and show new connection topologies of the Ru dimers. After activation does not adsorb N and CO but takes up 12 HO. In contrast, take up all three gases. The optimum proton conductivities were moderate reaching 1.44 × 10 for and 0.93 × 10 S cm for at 95% relative humidity and 55 °C.

The deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals within joint spaces produces a painful inflammatory condition known as gout, a specific form of arthritis. The condition calls for a combined curative and preventive management model. A new development in the approach to gout is that of NLRP3-targeted biologic agents, such as monoclonal therapies, to provide more accurate treatment by blocking specific pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Background: Food image recognition, a crucial step in computational gastronomy, has diverse applications across nutritional platforms. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are widely used for this task due to their ability to capture hierarchical features. However, they struggle with long-range dependencies and global feature extraction, which are vital in distinguishing visually similar foods or images where the context of the whole dish is crucial, thus necessitating transformer architecture.

pH-responsive polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are used as well-defined building blocks to design light-switchable nano-assemblies in solution. The complex interplay between the photoresponsive di-anionic azo dye Acid Yellow 38 (AY38) and the cationic PAMAM dendrimers of different generations is presented in this study. Electrostatic self-assembly involving secondary dipole-dipole interactions provides well-defined assemblies within a broad size range (10 nm-1 μm) with various shapes.

Background: In the era of resistance, the design and search for new "small" molecules with a narrow spectrum of activity that target a protein or enzyme specific to a certain bacterium with high selectivity and minimal side effects remains an urgent problem of medicinal chemistry. In this regard, we developed and successfully implemented a strategy for the search for new hybrid molecules, namely, the not broadly known [2-(3-R-1-[1,2,4]-triazol-5-yl)phenyl]amines. They can act as "building blocks" and allow for the introduction of certain structural motifs into the desired final products in order to enhance the antistaphylococcal effect.
