Fifty Years of Inorganic Biomimetic Chemistry: From the Complexation of Single Metal Cations to Polynuclear Metal Complexes by Multidentate Thiolate Ligands

This article covers 50 years of coordination chemistry of transition metal complexes and metal-sulfur aggregates involving thiolate-incorporating ligands by reviewing selected examples. The studies in the coordination chemistry of sulfur-rich ligands have been undoubtedly triggered and fed by the concomitant development of bioinorganic chemistry, particularly of iron-sulfur enzymes. The review is broken down in five sections, which examine complexes of increasing nuclearity, including binuclear complexes based on compartmental macrocyclic ligands. We show also how ligand engineering has allowed the researchers in the field to control the nuclearity of the complexes, which was a particularly difficult task for sulfur-based ligands, as thiolates show a strong tendency to coordinate to more than one metal cation at once.     

Retrospectively gated cardiac cine imaging with temporal and spatial acceleration

Parallel imaging methods are routinely used to accelerate the image acquisition process in cardiac cine imaging. The addition of a temporal acceleration method, whereby k-space is sampled differently for different time frames, has been shown in prior work to improve image quality as compared to parallel imaging by itself. However, such temporal acceleration strategies prove difficult to combine with retrospectively gated cine imaging. The only currently published method to feature such combination, by Hansen et al. [Magn Reson Med 55 (2006) 85-91] tends to be associated with prohibitively long reconstruction times. The goal of the present work was to develop a retrospectively gated cardiac cine method that features both parallel imaging and temporal acceleration, capable of achieving significant acceleration factors on commonly available hardware and associated with reconstruction times short enough for practical use in a clinical context.Seven cardiac patients and a healthy volunteer were recruited and imaged, with acceleration factors of 3.5 or 4.5, using an eight-channel product cardiac array on a 1.5-T system. The prescribed FOV value proved slightly too small in three patients, and one of the patients had a bigemini condition. Despite these additional challenges, good-quality results were obtained for all slices and all patients, with a reconstruction time of 0.98±0.07 s per frame, or about 20 s for a 20-frame slice, using a single processor on a single PC. As compared to using parallel imaging by itself, the addition of a temporal acceleration strategy provided much resistance to artifacts.     

Über Pterinchemie. 90. Mitteilung. Synthese und Kristallstruktur des ersten chinoiden Dihydropterinmolybdän (IV)-Komplexes

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the First Quinoid Dihydropterinmolybdenum (IV) Complex The first molybdenum(IV) complex with a quinoid dihydropterin, i.e. 2 , was isolated and characterized by IR, UV and NMR data and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The reaction of Mo^VIO₂Cl₂ with the biologically important 6β-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-L-biopterin(²) ( 7 ) in MeOH gave almost quantitatively trichloro(1,5-quinoid-7,8-dihydro-6H-L-biopterin)oxomolybdenLim(IV) ( 2 ). The complex crystallizes with one molecule of MeOH in the noncentrosymmetric orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁ (No. 19) with unit cell dimensions a = 1009.3(3), b = 1104.7(3), and c = 1484.5(4) pm and Z = 4. The Mo-atom has a distorted octahedral geometry (Fig.1). It is coordinated by N(5) and O(4) of the pterin ligand. The distance of the Mo–N(5) bond (202 pm) is unusually short compared to similar complexes. O(4) is located trans to a terminal oxo ligand. The octahedral coordination is completed by three Cl-atoms in a meridional arrangement. Complex 2, with the Mo-atom in the enzyme-relevant oxidation state +IV and the pterin in the intermediate quinoid dihydro form, should lead to an extension of the proposed ‘common molybdenum cofactor’ model.
