AI Article Synopsis

  • Dinuclear transition metal complexes with direct metal-metal interactions can create unique reactivities and properties.
  • The study introduces a new type of tetragonal lantern Fe(II) triazenides [Fe(NBuR)], where different alkyl substituents on triazine ligands result in similar short Fe-Fe distances (2.167-2.174 Å).
  • These newly synthesized complexes are air-sensitive and exhibit a lower spin ground state, as confirmed by various analytical techniques including Mössbauer, H NMR, and DFT studies.

Article Abstract

Dinuclear transition metal complexes with direct metal-metal interactions have the potential to generate unique reactivities and properties. Using asymmetric triazine ligands HNBuR (R = Et, Pr, Bu) featuring different alkyl substituents at 1,3-N centers, we report here the first rational synthesis of 'tetragonal lantern' type Fe(II) triazenides [Fe(NBuR)] [R = Et (1), Pr (2), Bu (3)] having an exceptionally short Fe-Fe distance (2.167-2.174 Å). Unlike the previously reported lantern structures with related amidinate or guanidinate ligands, highly air-sensitive 1-3 show a lower spin ground state, as indicated by Mössbauer, H NMR and DFT studies.

Platform development toward ultra-intense laser-based simultaneous hard x-ray and MeV neutron multimodal radiography.

Rev Sci Instrum

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Livermore, California 94550, USA.

Ultra-intense short-pulse lasers interacting with matter are capable of generating exceptionally bright secondary radiation sources. The short pulse duration (picoseconds to nanoseconds), small source size (sub-mm), and comparable high peak flux to conventional single particle sources make them an attractive source for radiography using a combination of particle species, known as multimodal imaging. Simultaneous x-ray and MeV neutron imaging of multi-material objects can yield unique advantages for material segmentation and identification within the full sample.

Case report: Two cases of leptomeningeal metastases in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma treated with enfortumab vedotin.

Article Synopsis
  • Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis is a rare metastatic pattern in genitourinary cancer, found in less than 0.1% of cases, and can occur even after initial treatments with enfortumab vedotin (EV).
  • Two cases of metastatic urothelial cancer are presented: both patients initially showed positive responses to EV but later developed severe neurologic symptoms due to leptomeningeal metastases confirmed through imaging and cytology.
  • The cases highlight an unusual progression pattern among patients treated with EV, suggesting the need for further investigation into this type of cancer spread.

A review of short-term weather impacts on honey production.

Int J Biometeorol

December 2024

Institute of Geography and Earth Sciences, Department of Meteorology, ELTE Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, Hungary.

Beekeeping is an exceptionally weather-sensitive agricultural field. Honey production and pollination services depend on the complex interaction of plants and bees, both of which are impacted by short-term weather changes. In this review, classical and recent research is collected to provide an overview on short-term atmospheric factors influencing honey production, and the optimal and critical weather conditions for bee activity.
