Heterocyclic nitrogen base adducts of nickel(II)–di(2,4-dibromophenyl)carbazonate

The title complex was prepared and characterized by elemental and spectral analyses. The formation constants of various heterocyclic nitrogen base adducts with the Ni^II–di(2,4-dibromophenyl)carbazonate have been determined in a monophase by spectrophotometry at 25 ± 0.1 °C. The monodenatate and bidentate bases form penta- and hexa-coordinated adducts respectively with 1:1 stoichiometry for the metal chelate-base, whereas the unsaturated monodentate bases form hexa-coordinated adducts with 1:2 stoichiometry. The behaviour of saturated heterocyclic bases such as pyrrolidine, piperidine, hexamethyleneimine and morpholine towards the metal chelate has been studied, and the results are discussed in terms of steric hindrance, basicity and ring structure.     

Nickel(II) complexes of substituted diphenylcarbazones and their adducts with heterocyclic nitrogen bases

The complexing behaviour of novel 1,5-di(4-chloro-2- methylphenyl)carbazone and 1,5-di(2,4-dichlorophenyl)carbazone towards nickel(II) ions has been investigated by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, u.v. -vis., i.r. and 1H-n.m.r. spectral studies. The ligands act as bidentate N,O donors and form 1:2 complexes with the metal ions. The adducting behaviour of nickel(II) complexes with nitrogen bases has been studied spectrophotometrically in a chloroform monophase. The nickel(II) di(4-chloro-2-methylphenyl)carbazonate forms hexacoordinate adducts with monodentate and bidentate bases with 1:2 and 1:1 chelate:base stoichiometries, respectively, whilst, nickel(II) di(2,4-dichloro-phenyl)carbazonate forms penta- and hexacoordinate adducts of 1:1 chelate:base stoichiometry with monodentate and bidentate bases, respectively. The results are discussed on the basis of steric properties and the basicity of the nitrogen bases.     

Synthesis of nickel(II)-di(2,3-dichlorophenyl)carbazonate and its adduct formation with heterocyclic nitrogen bases

The nickel(II)-di(2,3-dichlorophenyl)carbazonate [Ni(D2,3DClPC)₂] complex has been prepared and characterized by elemental and spectral studies. The Ni^II chelate forms adducts with heterocyclic nitrogen bases, which were studied spectrophotometrically in monophase CHCl₃ media. Saturated monodentate bases such as pyrrolidine, piperidine, etc., form pentacoordinate adducts of 1:1 stoichiometry, whereas bidentate and unsaturated monodentate bases form hexacoordinated adducts with 1:1 and 1:2 metal–ligand stoichiometries respectively. The results are discussed interms of steric properties, basicity and ring structures of the heterocyclic bases.     

Intrinsic equations for a generalized relaxed elastic line on an oriented surface in the galilean space

In this article, we derive the intrinsic equations for a generalized relaxed elastic line on an oriented surface in the Galilean 3-dimensional space G₃. These equations will give direct and more geometric approach to questions concerning about generalized relaxed elastic lines on an oriented surface in G₃.     

Lentivirus-mediated transgene delivery to the hippocampus reveals sub-field specific differences in expression

Background  

In the adult hippocampus, the granule cell layer of the dentate gyrus is a heterogeneous structure formed by neurons of different ages, morphologies and electrophysiological properties. Retroviral vectors have been extensively used to transduce cells of the granule cell layer and study their inherent properties in an intact brain environment. In addition, lentivirus-based vectors have been used to deliver transgenes to replicative and non-replicative cells as well, such as post mitotic neurons of the CNS. However, only few studies have been dedicated to address the applicability of these widespread used vectors to hippocampal cells in vivo. Therefore, the aim of this study was to extensively characterize the cell types that are effectively transduced in vivo by VSVg-pseudotyped lentivirus-based vectors in the hippocampus dentate gyrus.     

Spectrophotometric study on the adduct formation of nickel (II)-di(2,4-dimethylphenyl)carbazonate with heterocyclic nitrogen bases

The study of the adduct formation of Ni(II)di(2,4-dimethylphenyl)cabazonate has been undertaken by synthesising and characterising it by magnetic susceptibility, IR and 1H-NMR spectral measurements. The Ni(II) chelate forms adducts with heterocyclic nitrogen bases, spectrophotometeric method has been employed for the study of the adduct formation in a monophase chloroform. Both bidentate and unsaturated monodenate heteronuclear nitrogen bases form hexa-coordinated adducts with 1:1 stoichiomety (metal chelate, base). However, the saturated nitrogen bases form penta-coordinated adducts with 1:1 stoichiometry. The results are discussed in terms of basicity and steric factors of the bases.
