Quantifying relationships between cerebral blood flow (CBF), mitochondrial function (cytochrome c oxidase oxidation state), and metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO) could provide useful insight into normal neurovascular coupling, as well as regulation of oxidative metabolism in neurological disorders. This paper uses a multimodal NIRS-MRI method to quantify these parameters in rodent brain and, in so doing, provides novel information on the regulation of oxygen metabolism by stimulating with hypercapnia or variations in oxygenation. Under hypercapnia, although oxygenation, oxidation state, and CBF increased, there was no increase in CMRO. Also, there was no correlation between CBF and CCO oxidation state. Conversely, changing oxygenation resulted in a strong correlation between the oxidation of CCO and CBF. This proves that the association between CBF and the redox state of CCO is not fixed and depends on the type of perturbation. Having a means to measure CBF and CCO oxidation state simultaneously will help understanding their contribution to intact neurovascular coupling and detecting abnormal cellular oxygen metabolism in many neurological disorders.

Thermally driven transitions between ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases are characterized by critical behavior with divergent susceptibilities, long-range correlations, and spin dynamics that can span kHz to GHz scales as the material approaches the critical temperature , but it has proven technically challenging to probe the relevant length and time scales with most conventional measurement techniques. In this study, we employ scanning nitrogen-vacancy center based magnetometry and relaxometry to reveal the critical behavior of a high- ferromagnetic oxide near its Curie temperature. Cluster analysis of the measured temperature-dependent nanoscale magnetic textures points to a 3D universality class with a correlation length that diverges near .

A series of cyclometalated Au(III) complexes [Au(C^N^C)(C-L-P(O)Ph)] with C^N^C = 2,6-diphenylpyridine and alkynylphosphine oxide ligands (L = no linker, Au1; phenyl, Au2; biphenyl, Au3; naphthyl, Au4; anthracenyl, Au5) were synthesized and fully characterized by spectroscopic methods and single crystal XRD analysis. The complexes obtained exhibit triplet (Au1-Au3) and dual (Au4, Au5) emissions in solution, in the solid phase and in the PMMA film, whose characteristics depend on the linker's nature of the alkynylphosphine oxide ligand. The description of electronic transitions responsible for energy absorption and emission in Au(III) complexes was made on the basis of a detailed analysis of the results of DFT calculations and has shown to involve ILCT, LLCT and MLCT transitions of singlet and triplet nature.

We present a photocatalytic method for alkylamination of alkenes, enabling efficient C-C and C-N bond formation to construct aza-heterocycles valuable in drug discovery. Using a radical-polar crossover pathway, electron-deficient alkenes are reduced to electrophilic radicals, which react with electron-rich alkenes to form nucleophilic radicals. Oxidation of these intermediates yields carbocations, which are trapped by aza-heteroarenes to afford alkylaminated products.

The Ru(IV,IV), Ru(III,IV), and Ru(III,III) complexes with the doubly oxido- and/or hydroxido-bridged diamond core {Ru(μ-O(H))}, bridged by an η:η:μ-type bidentate sulfato ligand, [{Ru(L)}(μ-O)(μ-OSO)] ( = 1: [III,IV]; = 2: [IV,IV]), [{Ru(L)}(μ-O)(μ-OH)(μ-OSO)] ([III,IV_1H]), and [{Ru(L)}(μ-OH)(μ-OSO)] ([III,III_2H]) (L = ethylbis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine), were synthesised as ClO-salts, and their crystal and electronic structures investigated. The corresponding hydrogencarbonato-bridged Ru(III,III) complex, [{Ru(L)}(μ-OH)(μ-OCOH)] ([III,III(HCO3)_2H]), was also prepared and its crystallographic and electronic structures compared to those of the sulfato-bridged system, [III,III_2H]. All the sulfato-bridged complexes isolated were confirmed in the Pourbaix diagram, wherein the redox potential was plotted as a function of pH.

The synthesis of radiolabeled [25-C]-siamenoside I following a synthetic route developed using unlabeled materials is disclosed. The synthesis features an early stage labeling of the mogrol's C25 an oxidative cleavage-reconstruction strategy and regioselective glycosylations directed by protecting group manipulations. This route provided access to adequate amounts of [25-C]-siamenoside I for ADME and PK studies.
