Abstract
The present study focuses on the synthesis and structural characterization of a novel dinuclear CuII complex, [tri-chlorido-copper(II)]-μ-chlorido-{bis-[2-hy-droxy-N'-(propan-2-yl-idene)benzohydrazide]copper(II)} monohydrate, [Cu2Cl4(C10H12N2O2)2]·H2O or [Cu(H2 L)2(μ-Cl)CuCl3]·H2O [H2 L = 2-hy-droxy-N'-(propan-2-yl-idene)benzohydrazide]. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n with one mol-ecule of water, which forms inter-actions with the ligands. The first copper ion is penta-coordinated to two benzohydrazine-derived ligands via two nitro-gen and two oxygen atoms, and one bridging chloride, which is also coordinated by the second copper ion alongside three terminal chlorines in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The arrangement around the first copper ion exhibits a distorted geometry inter-mediate between trigonal bipyramidal and square pyramidal. In the crystal, chains are formed via inter-molecular inter-actions along the a-axis direction, with subsequent layers constructed through hydrogen-bonding inter-actions parallel to the ac plane, and through slipped π-π stacking inter-actions parallel to the ab plane, resulting in a three-dimensional network. The inter-molecular inter-actions in the crystal structure were qu-anti-fied and analysed using Hirshfeld surface analysis. Residual electron density from disordered methanol mol-ecules in the void space could not be reasonably modelled, thus a solvent mask was applied.

Abstract
Four Pt(II) bis(pyrrole-imine) Schiff base chelates (1-4) were synthesised by previously reported methods, through a condensation reaction, and the novel crystal structure of 2,2'-{propane-1,3-diylbis[nitrilo(E)methylylidene]}bis(pyrrol-1-ido)platinum(II) (1) was obtained. Pt(II) complexes 1-4 exhibited phosphorescence, with increased luminescence in anaerobic solvents or when bound to human serum albumin (HSA). One of the complexes shows a 15.6-fold increase in quantum yield when bound to HSA and could be used to detect HSA concentrations as low as 5 nM. Pt(II) complexes 1-3 was investigated as potential theranostic agents in MCF-7 breast cancer cells, but only complex 3 exhibited cytotoxicity when irradiated with UV light (λ355nmExcitation). Interestingly, the cytotoxicity of complex 1 was unresponsive to UV light irradiation. This indicates that only complex 3 can be considered a potential photosensitising agent.

Abstract
The title complex, (1,4,7,10,13,16-hexa-oxa-cyclo-octa-decane-1κ6 O)(μ-oxalato-1κ2 O 1,O 2:2κ2 O 1',O 2')triphenyl-2κ3 C-potassium(I)tin(IV), [KSn(C6H5)3(C2O4)(C12H24O6)] or K[18-Crown-6][(C6H5)3SnO4C2], was synthesized. The complex consists of a potassium cation coordinated to the six oxygen atoms of a crown ether mol-ecule and the two oxygen atoms of the oxalatotri-phenyl-stannate anion. It crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system within the space group P21. The tin atom is coordinated by one chelating oxalate ligand and three phenyl groups, forming a cis-trigonal-bipyramidal geometry around the tin atom. The cations and anions form ion pairs, linked through carbonyl coordination to the potassium atoms. The crystal structure features C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the oxygen atoms of the oxalate group and the hydrogen atoms of the phenyl groups, resulting in an infinite chain structure extending along a-axis direction. The primary inter-chain inter-actions are van der Waals forces.

Abstract
Propane-1,3-diaminium squarate dihydrate, C3H12N2 2+·C4O4 2-·2H2O, results from the proton-transfer reaction of propane-1,3-di-amine with squaric acid and subsequent crystallization from aqueous medium. The title compound crystallizes in the tetra-gonal crystal system (space group P4bm) with Z = 2. The squarate dianion belongs to the point group D 4h and contains a crystallographic fourfold axis. The propane-1,3-diaminium dication exhibits a C 2v -symmetric all-anti conformation and resides on a special position with mm2 site symmetry. The orientation of the propane-1,3-diaminium ions makes the crystal structure polar in the c-axis direction. The solid-state supra-molecular structure features a triperiodic network of strong hydrogen bonds of the N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O types.

Abstract
Human African trypanosomiasis, or sleeping sickness, is a neglected tropical disease caused by Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and is invariably fatal unless treated. Current therapies present limitations in their application, parasite resistance, or require further clinical investigation for wider use. Our work, informed by previous findings, presents novel 4-[4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl]-6-arylpyrimidine derivatives with promising antitrypanosomal activity. In particular, 32 exhibits an in vitro EC50 value of 0.5 µM against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, and analogues 29, 30 and 33 show antitrypanosomal activities in the <1 µM range. We have demonstrated that substituted 4-[4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl]-6-arylpyrimidines present promising antitrypanosomal hit molecules with potential for further preclinical development.

Abstract
This study presents the synthesis, characterization and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 1-[6-bromo-2-(3-bromo-phen-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetra-hydro-quinolin-4-yl]pyrrolidin-2-one, C19H18Br2N2O. In the title compound, the pyrrolidine ring adopts a distorted envelope configuration. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. In addition, pairs of mol-ecules along the c axis are connected by C-H⋯π inter-actions. According to a Hirshfeld surface study, H⋯H (36.9%), Br⋯H/H⋯Br (28.2%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (24.3%) inter-actions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing.

Abstract
In the title compound, C31H28O4, the phenyl rings of the chalcone unit subtend a dihedral angle of 26.43 (10)°. The phenyl rings of the pendant benz-yloxy groups are orientated at 75.57 (13) and 75.70 (10)° with respect to their attached ring. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions link the mol-ecules. The inter-molecular inter-actions were qu-anti-fied and analysed using Hirshfeld surface analysis, which showed a breakdown into H⋯H (49.8%), H⋯C/C⋯H (33.8%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (13.6%) inter-actions with other types making negligible contributions.

Abstract
The antipsychotic drug olanzapine is well known for its complex polymorphism. Although widely investigated, the crystal structure of one of its anhydrous polymorphs, form III, is still unknown. Its appearance, always in concomitance with forms II and I, and the impossibility of isolating it from that mixture, have prevented its structure determination so far. The scenario has changed with the emerging field of 3D electron diffraction (3D ED) and its great advantages in the characterization of polyphasic mixtures of nanosized crystals. In this study, we show how the application of 3D ED allows the ab initio structure determination and dynamical refinement of this elusive crystal structure that remained unknown for more than 20 years. Olanzapine form III is monoclinic and shows a similar but shifted packing with respect to form II. It is remarkably different from the lowest-energy structures predicted by the energy-minimization algorithms of crystal structure prediction.

Abstract
The synthesis and structural characterization of four novel supramolecular hydrogen-bonded arrangements based on self-assembly from molecular `[Cu(2,2'-biimidazole)]' modules and malonate anions are presented, namely, tetrakis(2,2'-biimidazole)di-μ-chlorido-dimalonatotricopper(II) pentahydrate, [Cu3(C3H2O4)2Cl2(C6H6N4)4]·5H2O or [Cu(H2biim)2(μ-Cl)Cu0.5(mal)]2·5H2O, aqua(2,2'-biimidazole)malonatocopper(II) dihydrate, [Cu(C3H2O4)(C6H6N4)(H2O)]·2H2O or [Cu(H2biim)(mal)(H2O)]·2H2O, bis[aquabis(2,2'-biimidazole)copper(II)] dimalonatodiperchloratocopper(II) 2.2-hydrate, [Cu(C6H6N4)2(H2O)]2[Cu(C3H2O4)(ClO4)2]·2.2H2O or [Cu(H2biim)2(H2O)]2[Cu(mal)2(ClO4)2]·2.2H2O, and bis(2,2'-biimidazole)copper(II) bis[bis(2,2'-biimidazole)(2-carboxyacetato)malonatocopper(II)] tridecahydrate, [Cu(C6H6N4)2][Cu(C3H2O4)(C3H3O4)(C6H6N4)2]·13H2O or [Cu(H2biim)2][Cu(H2biim)2(Hmal)(mal)]2·13H2O. These assemblies are characterized by self-complementary donor-acceptor molecular interactions, demonstrating a recurrent and distinctive pattern of hydrogen-bonding preferences among the carboxylate, carboxylic acid and N-H groups of the coordinated 2,2'-biimidazole and malonate ligands. Additionally, coordination of the carboxylate group with the metallic centre helps sustain remarkable supramolecular assemblies, such as layers, helices, double helix columns or 3D channeled architectures, including mixed-metal complexes, into a single structure.

Abstract
In the title compound, C33H29ClN2O2, the two piperidine rings of the di-aza-bicyclo moiety adopt distorted-chair conformations. Inter-molecular C-H⋯π inter-actions are mainly responsible for the crystal packing. The inter-molecular inter-actions were qu-anti-fied and analysed using Hirshfeld surface analysis, revealing that H⋯H inter-actions contribute most to the crystal packing (52.3%). The mol-ecular structure was further optimized by density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31 G(d,p) level and is compared with the experimentally determined mol-ecular structure in the solid state.

Abstract
Organic crystals are widely used by animals to manipulate light for producing structural colors and for improving vision. To date only seven crystal types are known to be used, and among them β-guanine crystals are by far the most widespread. The fact that almost all these crystals have unusually high refractive indices (RIs) is consistent with their light manipulation function. Here, the physical, structural, and optical principles of how light interacts with the polarizable free-electron-rich environment of these quasiaromatic molecules are addressed. How the organization of these molecules into crystalline arrays introduces optical anisotropy and finally how organisms control crystal morphology and superstructural organization to optimize functions in light reflection and scattering are also discussed. Many open questions remain in this fascinating field, some of which arise out of this in-depth analysis of the interaction of light with crystal arrays. More types of organic crystals will probably be discovered, as well as other organisms that use these crystals to manipulate light. The insights gained from biological systems can also be harnessed for improving synthetic light-manipulating materials.

Abstract
The crystal structures of two coordination compounds, (acetato-κO)(2,2'-bipyridine-κ2N,N')(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2N,N')copper(II) acetate hexahydrate, [Cu(C2H3O2)(C10H8N2)(C12H8N2)](C2H3O2)·6H2O or [Cu(bipy)(phen)Ac]Ac·6H2O, and (acetato-κO)bis(2,2'-bipyridine-κ2N,N')copper(II) acetate-acetic acid-water (1/1/3), [Cu(C2H3O2)(C10H8N2)2](C2H3O2)·C2H4O2·3H2O or [Cu(bipy)2Ac]Ac·HAc·3H2O, are reported and compared with the previously published structure of [Cu(phen)2Ac]Ac·7H2O (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline, bipy for 2,2'-bipyridine, ac is acetate and Hac is acetic acid). The geometry around the metal centre is pentacoordinated, but highly distorted in all three cases. The coordination number and the geometric distortion are both discussed in detail, and all complexes belong to the space group P-1. The analysis of the geometric parameters and the Hirshfeld surface properties dnorm and curvedness provide information about the metal-ligand interactions in these complexes and allow comparison with similar systems.

Abstract
Three-dimensional organic-inorganic perovskites are rapidly evolving materials with diverse applications. This study focuses on their two representatives - acetamidinium manganese(II) formate (AceMn) and formamidinium manganese(II) formate (FMDMn) - subjected to varying temperature and pressure. We show that AceMn undergoes atypical pressure-induced structural transformations at room temperature, increasing the symmetry from ambient-pressure P21/n phase II to the high-pressure Pbca phase III. In turn, FMDMn in its C2/c phase II displays temperature- and pressure-induced ordering of cage cations that proceeds without changing the phase symmetry or energy barriers. The FMD+ cations do not order under constant volume across the pressure-temperature plane, despite similar pressure and temperature evolution of the unit-cell parameters. Temperature and pressure affect the cage cations differently, which is particularly pronounced in their relaxation dynamics seen by dielectric spectroscopy. Their motion require a rearrangement of the metal-formate framework, resulting in the energy and volumetric barriers defined by temperature-independent activation energy and activation volume parameters. As this process is phonon-assisted, the relaxation time is strongly temperature-dependent. Consequently, relaxation times do not scale with unit-cell volume nor H-bond lengths in formates, offering the possibility of tuning their electronic properties by external stimuli (like temperature or pressure) even without any structural changes.

Abstract
We recently introduced calix[n]naphth[m]arenes as a novel class of deep-cavity hybrid macrocycles constituted by phenol (n) and naphthalene (m) units. In this study, we report the synthesis, conformational analysis, spectroscopic properties, and solid-state structures of calix[4]naphth[4]arene (C4N4) and its permethylated analog (C4N4-Me), thereby expanding the calix[n]naphth[m]arene family. C4N4 was synthesized through a 2 + 2 fragment coupling macrocyclization under acidic conditions, where the solvent played a crucial role in selectively forming the C4N4 derivative. The X-ray structure of C4N4 reveals a chair-like 1,2,3,4-alternate conformation characterized by two opposing 3/4-cone moieties stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonds. In contrast, the X-ray structure of C4N4-Me exhibits a 1,3,5,7-alternate conformation.

Abstract
A new complex of copper(II) with methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazol-3-yl-ketazine (H2L) was synthesized with the composition [Cu2L2]∙C2H5OH (1). Recrystallization of the sample from DMSO yielded a single crystal of the composition [Cu2L2((CH3)2SO)] (2). The coordination compounds were studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, IR spectroscopy, and static magnetic susceptibility method. The data obtained indicate that the polydentate ligand is coordinated by both acyclic nitrogen and heterocyclic nitrogen atoms. The cytotoxic activity of the ligand and complex 1 was investigated on human cell lines MCF7 (breast adenocarcinoma), Hep2 (laryngeal carcinoma), A549 (lung carcinoma), HepG2 (hepatocellular carcinoma), and MRC5 (non-tumor lung fibroblasts). The complex was shown to have a pronounced dose-dependent cytotoxicity towards these cell lines with LC50 values in the range of 0.18-4.03 μM.

Abstract
A range of novel simple gold(III) compounds has been synthesized in their monocrystalline form, including two previously unknown chloro-complexes of Au3+ with 2-cyanopyridine or 3-cyanopyridine, respectively. Our investigations have revealed the intricate nature of the reaction between 2-cyanopyridine and tetrachloroauric acid, yielding at least three distinct products. The main product, obtained in high yield, is a salt featuring a tetrachloroauric anion and a pyridinium cation stabilized by a hydrogen bond to a further 2-cyanopyridine molecule. Moreover, we observed the in-situ formation of a 2-cyanopyridine-AuCl3 complex, which undergoes hydrolysis of the nitrile bond to yield a picolinamide-Au(III) complex. The complexes were characterized by IR and Raman spectroscopies, NMR spectroscopy, and single-crystal XRD studies. Additional computational studies were conducted to explain unusual spectral features, the observed disparities in the complexation reactions of the three isomeric cyanopyridine ligands and the distinct reactivity of the complex with 2-cyanopyridine. Based on these studies, we propose a mechanism for the catalyzed hydrolysis of the nitrile bond within the Au(III) complex. Finally, we assessed the antimicrobial efficacy of the synthesized gold(III) complexes against a spectrum of bacteria and fungi.

Abstract
With the aim of tuning the magnetic anisotropy, a series of Co(ii) complexes with the general formula of complex cations [Co(L)X]+, where X = Br- (1); I- (2); NCO- (3); NCS- (4a); N3 - (5), and [Co(L)(NCS)2] (4b), (L = a 17-membered pyridine-based N3O2-macrocyclic ligand containing two pyridin-2-ylmethyl pendant arms) were prepared and thoroughly characterized. The molecular structures for all complexes showed strongly distorted geometry in between octahedral and trigonal prismatic. The magnetic studies confirmed substantial magnetic anisotropy with positive values of D, the axial zero-field splitting parameter, but E/D ratios close to 1/3. This was supported by theoretical CASSCF calculations showing no significant effect of the co-ligands. Complex 4b was found to behave as a field-induced SMM.

Abstract
Ciprofibrate (CIP) is an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) classified as class II on the basis of biopharmaceutical classification system (BCS), what indicates that it has low solubility in aqueous solvents. The use of API salts has attracted attention due to their improvements in solubility, tolerability, higher rate and extent of absorption, and faster onset of the therapeutic effect. In this work, a new crystalline CIP monohydrated calcium salt (Ca(CIP)2.H2O) was successfully obtained and its crystal structure determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (SCXRD). Additionally, Ca(CIP)2.H2O was widely characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and submitted to solubility, intrinsic dissolution and accelerated stability studies. Ca(CIP)2.H2O exhibited higher solubility and dissolution rate than CIP-free form and was stable up to 6 months at 40 °C (75 %RH). Therefore, Ca(CIP)2.H2O may be a viable alternative for use in solid dosage forms.

Abstract
High-valent cobalt oxides play a pivotal role in alternative energy technology as catalysts for water splitting and as cathodes in lithium-ion batteries. Despite this importance, the properties governing the stability of high-valent cobalt oxides and specifically possible oxygen evolution pathways are not clear. One root of this limited understanding is the scarcity of high-valent Co(IV)-containing model complexes; there are no reports of stable, well-defined complexes with multiple Co(IV) centers. Here, an oxidatively robust fluorinated ligand scaffold enables the isolation and crystallographic characterization of a Co(IV)2-bis-μ-oxo complex. This complex is remarkably stable, in stark contrast with previously reported Co(IV)2 species that are highly reactive, which demonstrates that oxy-Co(IV)2 species are not necessarily unstable with respect to oxygen evolution. This example underscores a new design strategy for highly oxidizing transition-metal fragments and provides detailed data on a previously inaccessible chemical unit of relevance to O-O bond formation and oxygen evolution.

Abstract
Neodymium(III) is a near-infrared emissive and magnetic ion, which has found use in various high-technology applications. Yet, accurate predictions of the luminescent and magnetic properties of neodymium(III) based on the coordination environment remain to be done. Guidelines exist, but to build structure-property relationships for this element, more data are needed. Herein, we present a high-symmetry starting point. The tris(oxidiacetate) complex of neodymium(III) was prepared and crystallized, and access to the experimentally determined structure allowed us to quantify the symmetry of the compound and to perform calculations directly on the same structure that is investigated experimentally. The luminescent properties were determined and the electronic structure was computed using state-of-the-art ab initio methods. All electronic transitions in the range from 490 to 1400 nm were mapped experimentally. Using a Boltzmann population analysis, the combination of the excitation and emission spectra revealed the crystal field splitting of the 18 lowest-energy Kramers levels that experimentally could be unambiguously resolved. This assignment was supported by ab initio calculations, and the crystal field splitting was well reproduced. The electronic structure reported for the tris(oxidiacetate) complex was used to deduce the coordination structure in aqueous solution. Finally, the results are compared to empirical trends in the literature for the electronic structure of neodymium(III).

Cryo-tomography and 3D Electron Diffraction Reveal the Polar Habit and Chiral Structure of the Malaria Pigment Crystal Hemozoin. ACS CENTRAL SCIENCE 2024; 10:1504-1514.

Abstract
Detoxification of heme in Plasmodium depends on its crystallization into hemozoin. This pathway is a major target of antimalarial drugs. The crystalline structure of hemozoin was established by X-ray powder diffraction using a synthetic analog, β-hematin. Here, we apply emerging methods of in situ cryo-electron tomography and 3D electron diffraction to obtain a definitive structure of hemozoin directly from ruptured parasite cells. Biogenic hemozoin crystals take a striking polar morphology. Like β-hematin, the unit cell contains a heme dimer, which may form four distinct stereoisomers: two centrosymmetric and two chiral enantiomers. Diffraction analysis, supported by density functional theory analysis, reveals a selective mixture in the hemozoin lattice of one centrosymmetric and one chiral dimer. Absolute configuration has been determined by morphological analysis and confirmed by a novel method of exit-wave reconstruction from a focal series. Atomic disorder appears on specific facets asymmetrically, and the polar morphology can be understood in light of water binding. Structural modeling of the heme detoxification protein suggests a function as a chiral agent to bias the dimer formation in favor of rapid growth of a single crystalline phase. The refined structure of hemozoin should serve as a guide to new drug development.

Abstract
The invention of efficient chemotherapeutic drugs is essential for human health and development. Keeping this in mind, a series of copper(II) pincer complexes, 1-4, of ligands L1(H) = 2-morpholino-N-(quinolin-8-yl)acetamide, L2(H) = 2-di-n-propylamino-N-(quinolin-8-yl)acetamide, L3(H) = 2-di-n-butylamino-N-(quinolin-8-yl)acetamide and L4(H) = 2-di-n-benzylamino-N-(quinolin-8-yl)acetamide have been synthesized, characterized, and utilized for inhibiting cancer proliferation. Complexes 1-4 showed very efficient activity against lung (A549) and breast (MCF-7) cancer cells, which are the most frequently diagnosed cancers according to the WHO. Among them, 1 was highly active against lung cancer cells with an IC50 value of 8 μM, showing no toxicity towards common L929 fibroblast cell lines (IC50 > 1000 μM). Moreover, AO-EB staining inferred that this cellular demise was attributed to apoptosis, which was determined to be 25.91% of cells by flow cytometry at the IC50 concentration. Furthermore, carboxy-H2DCFDA staining revealed the involvement of ROS in the mechanism. Interestingly, JC-1 dye staining revealed a change in the potential of the mitochondrial membrane, which indicates the enhanced production of ROS in mitochondria. A deep search for the mechanism through in silico studies guided us to the fact that complexes 1-4 might perturb the function of complex I in mitochondria. Furthermore, the studies can be expanded towards clinical applications mainly with morpholine appended complex 1.

Abstract
The mechanical properties of halide perovskites have been attracting ever-increasing interest for their significant importance in future industrial applications. However, studies focused on the effect of B-site substitution of molecular perovskites on their mechanical properties are rare, which makes it favorable to shed light on their fundamental structure-mechanical property relationships. Here, using isostructural halide perovskites, [C4H12N2][BCl3]·H2O (B = NH4+; K+), constructed by ionic bonds and hydrogen bonds, respectively, as the model systems, we investigate their mechanical properties through high-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiments and density functional theory calculations. Owing to the similar sizes of NH4+ and K+, the two compounds possess almost identical cell parameters and frameworks. Upon compression, the two perovskites exhibit analogous behavior except for slight differences in the shrinkage ratio of principal axes and the onset pressure of amorphization. The fitted bulk moduli of [C4H12N2][KCl3]·H2O and [C4H12N2][NH4Cl3]·H2O are 43.89 and 27.28 GPa, respectively. These results demonstrate that the simple replacement of K+ by NH4+ can significantly reduce the structural rigidity of the corresponding compounds, which is ascribed to the weaker strength of NH4⋯Cl hydrogen bonds than that of K-Cl bonds.

Abstract
Interactions between gold-based materials and dioxygen (O2) have motivated researchers to understand reaction mechanisms for O2 activation by homo- and heterogeneous gold catalysts. In this work, gold(I) porphyrin dinuclear complexes were synthesized with a saddle-distorted porphyrin ligand. The gold(I) porphyrin complexes showed unprecedented O2 activation in the presence of protic solvents to form gold(III) tetradentate porphyrin complexes. Mechanistic insights into the O2 activation by the gold(I) center were elucidated by spectroscopic measurements and theoretical calculations, revealing that dissociation of halides on the gold(I) center by alcohol solvents and hydrogen bonding of an N-H proton in the distorted porphyrin with dioxygen played important roles in establishing the unique reactivities of gold(I) complexes.

Abstract
Two new salts of a mononuclear tripodal Fe(II) complex were prepared, using ClO4- and Cl-. The ClO4- sample (1) remained HS at low temperatures, similar to the previously reported BF4- analogue. Crystallising with the Cl- anion (2) led to a markedly different crystal packing arrangement, and engendered SCO activity. This has been correlated to the lower crystal packing density in 2 and the coordination complex conformational differences arising due to the packing motifs of 1 and 2. Further, solvent ordering effects have been proposed to facilitate spin transition behaviour in 2.

Abstract
A newly designed tetracarboxylic acid ligand precursor 5,5'-([9,9'-bianthracene]-10,10'-diyl)diisophthalic acid (H4BADI) has been used to prepare a series of copper-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with the formula [Cu2(BADI)(S)2]·xS (denoted as 1-S, where S = solvent) and exhibiting solvent-induced structural transformations. Single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation occurs upon exchanging 1-DMF (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) with DMSO (DMSO = dimethylsulfoxide). 1-DMF exhibits reversible structural transformation upon treatment with a variety of solvents; of particular interest is the reversible crystalline-to-amorphous phase transformations observed upon exchange with volatile, polar solvents. A thorough structural investigation of the three framework isomers characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments is reported and compared to several other tetracarboxylate-based MOFs composed of dimetal secondary building units.

Abstract
A facile room-temperature synthetic method is presented to produce alkali metal salts of tert-butyl phosphonic acid. The reaction between equimolar amounts of alkali metal carbonates and tert-butyl phosphonic acid in methanol results in the formation of [(tBuPO3H)Li(H2O)3·(H2O)] (1), [(tBuPO3)Na2(H2O)4]n (2), and [(tBuPO3H)K(H2O)]n (3). Solid-state structures of these compounds have been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies and further validated using numerous spectroscopic and analytical techniques. Compounds 1-3 are polymeric solids that are predominantly made up of a 1-D polymeric metal phosphonate chain. This synthetic approach leads to the formation of network structures/polymers in the solid state that otherwise are absent in solution due to the ionic nature of the interaction between the alkali metal ions and phosphonate anions. Apart from the multidentate nature of the phosphonate ligands, additional hydrogen bonding interactions involving water molecules, free P-OH groups, and PO moieties allow these chains to be propagated into 2-D sheets. We have further utilized the completely metalated sodium phosphonate 2 to synthesize layered metal phosphonates [(tBuPO3)Ca(H2O)]n (4), [(tBuPO3)Mn(H2O)]n (5) and [(tBuPO3)Co(H2O)]n (6) via a simple metathesis reaction.

Abstract
This paper explores the findings on the structures and physicochemical properties of titanium-oxo complexes (TOCs) stabilized by 9-hydroxy-9-fluorenecarboxylate ligands. Two complexes, with the overall formulas [Ti4O(OiPr)10(O3C14H8)2] (1) and [Ti6O4(OiPr)2(O3C14H8)4(O2CEt)6] (2), have been synthesized. The structures of the isolated crystals (1 and 2) were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Molecular structure analysis of the crystals also employed vibrational spectroscopic techniques (IR and Raman), UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis-DRS), and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). Density functional theory (DFT) was utilized to elucidate the electronic structures of these complexes. Furthermore, the theoretical charge distribution in 1 and 2 and their reactivity were calculated. The results of these investigations suggest that the reactivity of 2 is significantly greater than that of 1.

Abstract
Sterically loaded, anionic pyridine has been synthesized and utilized successfully in the stabilization of a isoleptic series of coinage metal complexes. The treatment of [4-(Ph3B)-2,6-Trip2Py]K (Trip=2,4,6-iPr3C6H2) with CuBr(PPh3), AgCl(PPh3) or AuCl(PPh3) (Py=pyridine) afforded the corresponding [4-(Ph3B)-2,6-Trip2Py]M(PPh3) (M=Au, Ag, Cu) complexes, via salt metathesis, as isolable, crystalline solids. Notably, these reactions avoid the facile single electron transfer chemistry reported with the less bulky ligand systems. The X-ray structures revealed that they are two-coordinate metal adducts. The M-N and M-P bond distances are longest in the silver and shortest in the copper adduct among the three group 11 family members. Computational analysis revealed an interesting stability dependence on steric bulk of the anionic pyridine (i. e., pyridyl borate) ligand. A comparison of structures and bonding of [4-(Ph3B)-2,6-Trip2Py]Au(PPh3) to pyridine and m-terphenyl complexes, {[2,6-Trip2Py]Au(PPh3)}[SbF6] and [2,6-Trip2Ph]Au(PPh3) are also provided. The Au(I) isocyanide complex, [4-(Ph3B)-2,6-Trip2Py]Au(CNBut) has been stabilized using the same anionic pyridylborate illustrating that it can support other gold-ligand moieties as well.

Abstract
The first heteroditopic [2]rotaxane host systems capable of strong and selective binding of lithium chloride ion-pair species are described. Importantly, a cooperative 'switch on' mechanism was found to operate, in which complexation of a lithium metal cation enhances the halide anion affinity of the rotaxanes via a combination of favourable proximal electrostatic and preorganised allosteric effects. The mechanically bonded rotaxane host design features a macrocycle component possessing a 2,6-dialkoxy pyridyl cation binding motif and an isophthalamide anion binding group, as well as an axle component functionalised with either a halogen bonding (XB) iodotriazole or hydrogen bonding (HB) prototriazole moiety. Extensive quantitative 1H NMR titration studies in CD3CN/CDCl3 solvent mixtures determined enhanced ion-pair binding affinities for lithium halides over the corresponding sodium or potassium halide salts, with the axle prototriazole-containing HB rotaxane in particular demonstrating a marked selectivity for lithium chloride. Solid-state X-ray crystallographic studies and computational DFT investigations provide evidence for a [2]rotaxane host axle-separated ion-pair binding mode, in which complementary cation and anion binding motifs from both the macrocycle and axle components act convergently to recognise each of the charged guest species.

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction of these complexes reveal unexpected decreases in Ln⋯Ln distances, increasing Cpcent-Ln-Cpcent angles, and increasing intermolecular C⋯C contacts with bulkier bridging alkoxides, in line with structural control driven by significant dispersion forces. 1H NMR spectroscopy of [Cp'2Ce(μ-OEt)]2 and [Cp'2Ce(μ-OiPr)]2 revealed significantly upfield resonances assigned as methylene and methine moieties of -43.74 and -70.85 ppm, respectively. 2D 1H DOSY NMR experiments of [Cp'2Ce(μ-OiPr)]2 in C6D6 supported a dimeric structure in solution, including in the presence of a Lewis base (i.e., THF). Reduction of [Cp'2La(μ-OiPr)]2 using KC8 in the presence of 2.2.2-cryptand at -78 °C generated a purple solution and X-band EPR spectroscopy revealed an eight-line hyperfine pattern indicative of a LaII species.

Abstract
A new palladium(II) complex containing the previously synthesized 4,10-bis[(3-hydroxy-4-pyron-2-yl)methyl]-1,7-dimethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane ligand maltonis was prepared and characterized both in solution and in the solid state. Hirshfeld surface and energy framework analyses were also performed. Because maltonis already showed antineoplastic activity, the complexation of Pd(II), chosen as an alternative to Pt(II), was investigated to study its possible biological activity. UV-vis and NMR studies confirmed the formation and stability of the complex in aqueous solution at physiological pH. X-ray diffraction data revealed a structure where the Pd(II) ion is lodged in the dimethyl-cyclen cavity, with maltol rings facing each other (closed shape) even if they are not involved in the coordination. DFT analysis was performed in order to understand the most stable shape of the complex. In view of evaluating its possible bioactive conformation, the DFT study suggested a slight energetic preference for the closed one. The resulting closed complex was stabilized in the X-ray structure by intermolecular interactions that replace the intramolecular interactions present in the optimized complex. According to the DFT calculated formation energies, notwithstanding its rarity, the Pd(II) complex of maltonis is the thermodynamically preferred one among analogous complexes containing different metal ions (Pt(II), Co(II), and Cu(II)). Finally, to study its possible biological activity, the interaction between the Pd(II) complex of maltonis and nucleosides was evaluated through NMR and DFT calculations, revealing a possible interaction with purines via the maltol moieties.

Abstract
Novel heteroleptic anilate-based lanthanide MOFs (LnIII = Tb, Dy, Ho) have been obtained under hydrothermal conditions by the ancillary ligand synthetic strategy. These structurally isomorphous species contain octacoordinated LnIII ions with coordination polyhedra approaching an ideal D2d symmetry, best described by a distorted biaugmented trigonal prismatic C2v geometry. In the whole series, only the Dy-MOF exhibits SMM behaviour.

Abstract
Synthesis of quinoline-containing spiropyrrolizine was achieved via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azomethine ylide (generated in situ from ninhydrin and l-proline) and (E)-2-styrylquinoline. The synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS, and single-crystal XRD analysis. The XRD data revealed that the solid-state structures of the compounds belong to the monoclinic system of the space group P21/c and are stabilized through various weak noncovalent interactions such as C-H···O, C-H···π, and π···π interactions. The noncovalent interactions are characterized and quantified through Hirshfeld surface analysis. Moreover, the interaction energies of the intermolecular noncovalent interactions are calculated through PIXEL calculation. The PIXEL calculation provides precise interaction energy with an energy decomposition scheme. Energy Framework calculations have also been performed to delve deeper into understanding the intermolecular interactions. The intermolecular interactions are further characterized using Bader's theory of "atoms in molecules" (QTAIM) and the "noncovalent" (NCI) interaction plot index. The nature and strength of noncovalent interactions are analyzed from the topological parameters at (3, -1) bond critical points (BCPs).

Abstract
The study of the structural stability of carbonates under different pressure and temperature conditions is important for modeling the carbon budget in the Earth's interior and the stability of carbonation products of carbon capture and storage (CCS) solutions. In this work, we confirm the existence of the two dense polymorphs of the hydrated magnesium carbonate MgCO3·3H2O nesquehonite mineral previously reported, and we characterize their structures using synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 3.1 and 11.6 GPa. Phase transitions entail the distortion and atomic rearrangement of the Mg-centered polyhedra and the tilting of the [CO3] carbonate units. In particular, the Mg coordination number increases from 6 in nesquehonite to 7 in the second high-pressure phase, while maintaining a topology based on complex MgCO3(H2O)2 chains. We also studied their vibrational behavior upon compression using Raman spectroscopy and complemented the experimental results with density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. The role played by hydrogen bonds in the compressibility and the polymorphism of this hydrated carbonate is also discussed.

Abstract
A series of halide and pseudohalide gold complexes (DAC)Au(I)X (DAC = N,N'-diamidocarbene; X = Cl, Br, I, and SCN) were prepared in high yields. All complexes possess linear geometry around the gold atom with no aurophilic interactions between neighboring molecules. Reactivity studies for (DAC)Au(I)Cl revealed that the diamido backbone of the carbene ligand is vulnerable to nucleophilic attack by a strong base, potassium tert-butoxide, resulting in cleavage of the carbene backbone and formation of a neutral trigold cluster. Halide and pseudohalide complexes are bright phosphorescent emitters in the solid state, exhibiting photoluminescence quantum yields up to unity. Phosphorescence occurs in the range 480-520 nm with lifetimes as short as 1 μs, resulting in fast radiative rates up to 9.4 × 105 s-1 which is on par with the most efficient heavy metal emitters. Photophysical properties are explained by the intrinsic π-accepting nature of the DAC carbene and are supported by TDDFT calculations.

Abstract
It is known that niobium practically does not form cluster chalcogenide compounds of the {M6(μ3-Q8)} type, which are widespread in the chemistry of group 6 and 7 metals. This work reports the preparation of a series of polymeric and discrete niobium-containing heterometallic clusters based on the {Re5Nb(μ3-S8)} and {Re5Nb(μ3-Se8)} cores. The compounds were prepared by the high-temperature reaction between rhenium and niobium dichalcogenides in a KCN melt. The 1D polymers K5[Re5NbQ8(CN)5] (Q = S or Se), which were formed as a result of the reaction, crystallize in the structural type of K6[Mo6Se8(CN)5], similar to the previously reported heterometallic clusters K6[Re6-xMoxQ8(CN)5] (x = 2-3). The polymers were solubilized to form discrete anionic clusters [Re5NbQ8(CN)6]4-. The structure and properties of the new clusters were investigated using a combination of X-ray diffraction analysis, UV/vis spectroscopy, high-resolution electrospray mass spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry, and DFT calculations. Among other features, the compounds showed high electrochemical activity, being able to form three redox states in solution with reversible transitions. It was found that redox potentials of the isoelectronic octahedral clusters demonstrate a strong cathodic shift in the sequence [Re5OsSe8(CN)6]3- > [Re6Se8(CN)6]4- > [Re5MoSe8(CN)6]5- > [Re5NbSe8(CN)6]6-, illustrating the effect of systematic changes in the composition of octahedral cluster cores on their properties.

Abstract
The reaction of fluoride anions with mononuclear rare-earth(III) complexes of the hexaazamacrocycle derived from 2,6-diformylpyridine and ethylenediamine affords trinuclear coordination compounds [Ln3L3(μ2-F)4(NO3)2](NO3)3. The X-ray crystal structures of these complexes show triplex cationic complexes where the three roughly parallel macrocyclic lanthanide(III) units are linked by bis-μ2-F bridges. The detailed analysis of the photophysical properties of the [Eu3L3(μ2-F)4(NO3)2](NO3)3·2H2O and [Tb3L3(μ2-F)4(NO3)2](NO3)3·3H2O complexes reveals different temperature dependence of luminescence intensity and luminescence decay time of the Eu(III) and Tb(III) derivatives. The spectra of mixed species of average composition [Eu1.5Tb1.5L3(μ2-F)4(NO3)2](NO3)3·3H2O are in accordance with the ratiometric luminescent thermometer behavior. Measurements of the direct-current (dc) magnetic susceptibility of the [Dy3L3(μ2-F)4(NO3)2](NO3)3·2H2O complex indicate possible ferromagnetic interactions between the Dy(III) ions. Alternating current (ac) susceptibility measurements of this complex indicate single-molecule magnet behavior in zero dc field with magnetic relaxation dominated by Orbach mechanism and an effective energy barrier Ueff = 12.3 cm-1 (17.7 K) with a pre-exponential relaxation time, τ0 of 7.3 × 10-6 s. A similar reaction of mononuclear macrocyclic complexes with a higher number of fluoride equivalents results in polymeric {[Ln3L3(μ2-F)5](NO3)4}n complexes. The X-ray crystal structure of the Nd(III) derivative of this type shows trinuclear units that are additionally linked by single fluoride bridges to form a linear coordination polymer.

Abstract
Exfoliation of graphite and the discovery of the unique properties of graphene─graphite's single layer─have raised significant attention to layered compounds as potential precursors to 2D materials with applications in optoelectronics, spintronics, sensors, and solar cells. In this work, a new orthorhombic polymorph of yttrium bromide, oC16-YBr3 was synthesized from yttrium and CBr4 in a laser-heated diamond anvil cell at 45 GPa and 3000 K. The structure of oC16-YBr3 was solved and refined using in situ synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction. At high pressure, it can be described as a 3D framework of YBr9 polyhedra, but upon decompression below 15 GPa, the structure motif changes to layered, with layers comprising edge-sharing YBr8 polyhedra weakly bonded by van der Waals interactions. The layered oC16-YBr3 material can be recovered to ambient conditions, and according to Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof-density functional theory calculations, it exhibits semiconductor properties with a band gap that is highly sensitive to pressure. This polymorph possesses a low exfoliation energy of 0.30 J/m2. Our results expand the list of layered trivalent rare-earth metal halides and provide insights into how high pressure alters their structural motifs and physical properties.

Abstract
Reduction of the ferrous precursor [(TIMMNMes)Fe(Cl)]+ (1) (TIMMNMes = tris-[(3-mesitylimidazol-2-ylidene)methyl]amine) to the low-valent iron(0) complex [(TIMMNMes)Fe(CO)3] (2) is presented, where the tris(N-heterocyclic carbene) (NHC) ligand framework remains intact, yet the coordination mode changed from 3-fold to 2-fold coordination of the carbene arms. Further, the corresponding iron(I) complexes [(TIMMNMes)Fe(L)]+ (L = free site, η1-N2, CO, py) (3) are synthesized and fully characterized. Complexes 1-3 demonstrate the notable steric and electronic flexibility of the TIMMNMes ligand framework by variation of the Fe-N anchor and Fe-carbene distances and the variable size of the axial cavity occupation. This is further underpinned by the oxidation of 3-N2 in a reaction with benzophenone to yield the corresponding, charge-separated iron(II) radical complex [(TIMMNMes)Fe(OCPh2)]+ (4). We found rather surprising similarities in the reactivity behavior when going to low- or high-valent oxidation states of the central iron ion. This is demonstrated by the closely related reactivity of 3-N2, where H atom abstraction with TEMPO triggers the formation of the metallacycle [(TIMMNMes*)Fe(py)]+ (5), and the reactivity of the highly unstable Fe(VII) nitride complex [(TIMMNMes)Fe(N)(F)]3+ to give the metallacyclic Fe(V) imido complex [(TIMMNMesN)Fe(NMes)(MeCN)]3+ (6) upon warming. Thus, the employed tris(carbene) chelate is not only capable of stabilizing the superoxidized Fe(VI) and Fe(VII) nitrides but equally supports the iron center in its low oxidation states 0 and +1. Isolation and characterization of these zero- and monovalent iron complexes demonstrate the extraordinary capability of the tris(carbene) chelate TIMMN to support iron in eight different oxidation states within the very same ligand platform.

Complex 2 has three bridged-TePh moieties between two Cp*Co fragments in the cation part, whereas the anionic part, [TePh{M(CO)5}2]-, shows a distorted trigonal pyramidal core. In order to synthesize mixed chalcogenate-bridged complexes having both S and Te, we carried out the photolytic reaction of 1 with CS2. Although the objective of generating mixed chalcogen-bridged complex [(Cp*Co)2(μ-TePh)2(μ-S)] was not achieved, the reaction yielded an unusual bimetallic thiotellurite complex [(Cp*Co)2(μ-S3TeS3-κ2S:κ2Te:κ2S')] (4). Complex 4 has two wings, each consisting of three sulfur atoms, that are connected to two Co-atoms and one Te-atom. Further, to synthesize the Fe analogue of 2 and 3, a similar reaction was carried out with [Fe2(CO)9]. However, the reaction led to the formation of the trimetallic complex [Cp*Co(CO)(μ3-Te)2{Fe2(CO)6}] (5). These complexes were characterized by employing different multinuclear NMR, IR spectroscopies, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, and mass spectrometry. Additionally, computational analyses of these chalcogen-bridged neutral and ionic complexes were conducted to offer insight into their bonding.

Abstract
In the technologically important field of anticorrosion coatings, it is imperative to form well-defined and characterized films to protect the metal surface from corrosion. Phosphonate-based corrosion mitigation approaches are currently being exploited. Herein, the synergistic action of alkaline-earth metal ions and two carboxy-diphosphonates, PAIBA [N,N-bis(phosphonomethyl)-2-aminoisobutyric acid] and BPMGLY [N,N-bis(phosphonomethyl)glycine], is explored. Also, a family of four novel hybrid metal phosphonate materials is reported, Mg-PAIBA, Ca-PAIBA, Sr-PAIBA, and Sr-Na-PAIBA, whose topological analysis revealed a variety of underlying networks with the 6,10T9, unc, SP 1-periodic net (4,4)(0,2), and unique topologies. The synergistic metal/carboxy-diphosphonate blends were tested for their anticorrosion performance on carbon steel at preselected concentrations (0.1-1.0 mM) and pH values (4.0-6.0). The results showed an enhanced inhibitory performance in the presence of metal cations at higher concentrations. The inhibition of corrosion at pH 5.0 in the presence of BPMGLY, PAIBA, and their combination with Sr2+ was investigated in detail using electrochemical measurements. Enhanced inhibition was achieved with a 1:1 Sr2+/BPMGLY (or PAIBA) binary system. Polarization curves indicated that the system is a "mixed" inhibitor. This study widens the family of carboxyphosphonate coordination polymers, showing their potential as attractive hybrid coatings with anticorrosion performance.

Abstract
Cooperativity among spin centres has long been the royal road in spin crossover (SCO) research to impose magnetic bistability in terms of thermal hysteresis. In this work we access magnetic multi-inert states of the iron(III) compound {FeL2[B(Ph)4]} ≡ FeB at low temperature, in addition to thermal bistability. The packing of the low-spin and high-spin forms of crystalline FeB differs only marginally what ultimately leads to structural conservatism. This indicates that the SCO-immanent breathing of the complex cation is almost fully compensated by the anion matrix. The unique cooling rate dependence of the residual low-temperature magnetisation in FeB unveils continuous switching between the trapped high-spin (ON) and the relaxed low-spin state (OFF). The macroscopic ratio of the spin states (ON:OFF) can be adjusted as a simple function of the cooling rate. That is, cooperative spin crossover can be the source of bistable and multi-inert system states in the very same material.

Abstract
The general synthesis of boron-containing cyclic compounds (boracycles) necessitates toxic organotin precursors or highly reactive boron halides. Here, we report the synthesis of seven- and five-membered boracycles utilizing arylboronic acid pinacol esters (ArBpins) as stable boron sources. Grignard reagents generated from 2,2'-dibromodibenzyl or 2,2'-dibromobiphenyl reacted with ArBpins, where Ar = 9-anthryl (Anth), 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl (Mes), or 2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl (Tip), to give 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b,f]borepins or dibenzoborole derivatives. This Bpin-based method was successfully applied to a one-shot double boracycle formation, providing a dihydrodibenzoborepin-anthracene-dihydrodibenzoborepin triad molecule in a good yield. The dihydrodibenzoborepin bearing the Anth group was directly converted to the unsaturated borepin by NBS/AIBN. All products were characterized by NMR, HRMS, and in some cases, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Additionally, the photophysical properties of the products are also reported.

Abstract
The reaction of thiophene-2-carbohydrazide 1 or 5-bromothiophene-2-carbohydrazide 2 with various haloaryl isothiocyanates and subsequent cyclization by heating in aqueous sodium hydroxide yielded the corresponding 4-haloaryl-5-(thiophen-2-yl or 5-bromothiophen-2-yl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione 5a-e. The triazole derivatives 5a and 5b were reacted with different secondary amines and formaldehyde solution to yield the corresponding 2-aminomethyl-4-haloaryl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones 6a-e, 7a-e, 8, 9, 10a and 10b in good yields. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of compounds 5a-e, 6a-e, 7a-d, 8, 9, 10a and 10b was evaluated against a panel of standard pathogenic bacterial and fungal strains. Compounds 5a, 5b, 5e, 5f, 6a-e, 7a-d, 8, 9, 10a and 10b showed marked activity, particularly against the tested Gram-positive bacteria and the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli, and all the tested compounds were almost inactive against all the tested fungal strains. In addition, compounds 5e, 6a-e, 7a-d and 10a exhibited potent anti-proliferative activity, particularly against HepG-2 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines (IC50 < 25 μM). A detailed structural insight study based on the single crystals of compounds 5a, 5b, 6a, 6d and 10a is also reported. Molecular docking studies of the highly active antibacterial compounds 5e, 6b, 6d, 7a and 7d showed a high affinity for DNA gyrase. Meanwhile, the potent anti-proliferative activity of compounds 6d, 6e and 7d may be attributed to their high affinity for cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2).

Abstract
A new eco-friendly method for the synthesis of mono- and multifunctional organosulfur compounds, based on the process between ynals and thiols, catalyzed by bulky N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), was designed and optimized. The proposed organocatalytic approach allows the straightforward formation of a broad range of thioesters and sulfenyl-substituted aldehydes in yields above 86%, in mild and metal-free conditions. In this study, thirty-six sulfur-based derivatives were obtained and characterized by spectroscopic methods.

Growth of Single Crystals of (K 1-xNa x)NbO 3 by the Self-Flux Method and Characterization of Their Phase Transitions. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:4195.

Abstract
In this study, single crystals of (K1-xNax)NbO3 are grown by the self-flux crystal growth method and their phase transitions are studied using a combination of Raman scattering and impedance spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction shows that single crystals have a perovskite structure with monoclinic symmetry. Single crystal X-ray diffraction shows that single crystals have monoclinic symmetry at room temperature with space group P1211. Electron probe microanalysis shows that single crystals are Na-rich and A-site deficient. Temperature-controlled Raman scattering shows that low temperature monoclinic-monoclinic, monoclinic-tetragonal and tetragonal-cubic phase transitions take place at -20 °C, 220 °C and 440 °C. Dielectric property measurements show that single crystals behave as a normal ferroelectric material. Relative or inverse relative permittivity peaks at ~-10 °C, ~230 °C and ~450 °C with hysteresis correspond to the low temperature monoclinic-monoclinic, monoclinic-tetragonal and tetragonal-cubic phase transitions, respectively, consistent with the Raman scattering results. A conduction mechanism with activation energies of about 0.5-0.7 eV was found in the paraelectric phase. Single crystals show polarization-electric field hysteresis loops of a lossy normal ferroelectric. The combination of Raman scattering and impedance spectroscopy is effective in determining the phase transition temperatures of (K1-xNax)NbO3.

Abstract
Several novel copper (II) complexes of reduced Schiff bases containing fluoride substituents were prepared and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The complexes exhibited diverse structures, with the central atom in distorted tetrahedral geometry. The biological effects of the products were evaluated, specifically their cytotoxicity, antimicrobial, and antiurease activities, as well as affinity for albumin (BSA) and DNA (ct-DNA). The complexes showed marked cytotoxic activities in the HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, considerably higher than the standard cisplatin. The cytotoxicity depended significantly on the substitution pattern. The best activity was observed in the complex with a trifluoromethyl group in position 4 of the benzene ring-the dichloro[(±)-trans-N,N'-bis-(4-trifluoromethylbenzyl)-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine]copper (II) complex, whose activity (IC50 28.7 μM) was higher than that of the free ligand and markedly better than the activity of the standard cisplatin (IC50 336.8 μM). The same complex also showed the highest antimicrobial effect in vitro. The affinity of the complexes towards bovine serum albumin (BSA) and calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) was established as well, indicating only marginal differences between the complexes. In addition, all complexes were shown to be excellent inhibitors of the enzyme urease, with the IC50 values in the lower micromolar region.

Abstract
Microcrystal electron diffraction (microED) is an emerging technique for rapid crystallographic analysis of small molecule micro- and nanocrystals. In this report, we evaluate the applicability of microED to pharmaceutical compounds through the analysis of 30 samples obtained from the process and medicinal chemistry groups at Amgen Inc. Using only 40 h of microscope time, 15 of 30 crystal structures were elucidated. From these crystal structures, all chiral compounds had the correct absolute stereochemistry assigned by dynamical refinement of continuous rotation electron diffraction data, confirming dynamical refinement as a promising tool for the absolute stereochemistry determination of pharmaceutically relevant compounds.
