Abstract
Polyynes (C2nH2) show the unusually strong πg + πu combination bands in the infrared absorption spectra. We calculated them as the first overtone of the local CCH bending; the strong intensities are interpreted as a consequence of the large-amplitude bending vibration of the acidic acetylenic hydrogen combined with the size-dependent π electron conjugation. Our theoretical calculations show that the absorption intensity increases steadily and their increase rate is gradually slowed down by increasing the number of acetylene units up to n = 9. However, the calculated vibrational wavenumber converges quickly in agreement with the experimental observation. The second-order electron density deformation caused by the local CCH bending was analyzed using the linear response functions, including the linear and nonlinear contributions, to explain the n dependence. The easily polarizable π electron density caused two kinds of deformation-dominant but dark δxx-yy type and minor but bright σ type. Both of them exhibit interesting zigzag sign alternations, consistent with the law of alternating polarity of Coulson and Longuet-Higgins. The electron density polarization in these intra- and interacetylene units induces a large axial component molecular dipole moment, contributing to the intensity that increases with n. The difference between the curvilinear and rectilinear bending coordinates is interpreted within the present theoretical scheme.

Abstract
The investigation of electron density migrations caused by molecular structure changes is of central importance in various fields of chemistry. To address this topic in general and to study absorption intensities of vibrations, we analyze sensitive dipole moment functions (DMFs) of a molecule by combining the linear response function of conceptual DFT and bond dipoles separated by the quantum theory of atoms in molecules with a graphical transition moment decomposition scheme. The fundamental intensities of OH stretching vibrations depend strongly on the substituents but only weakly on the molecular conformations. Interestingly, in some alcohols, completely opposite trends have been observed for the lower-level overtone intensities: a weak substituent dependence but a stronger conformation dependence. It is well known that the formation of a hydrogen-bonded complex increases the OH stretching fundamental intensity, but less well known is the decrease in their overtone intensities. To investigate these characteristics comprehensively, we calculated their intensities (Δv = 1, 2, and 3) for conformers of ethanol and trifluoroethanol (TFE) and hydrogen-bonded phenol (PhOH) systems via the DFT method in the local mode model for the OH stretching coordinate ΔR. Their first and second derivatives of the electron density with respect to ΔR were calculated and interpreted using their bond moments. For ethanol and TFE, the OH, CC, and CH bond moments were found to make an important contribution to the molecular DMF derivatives parallel to the OH bond. The OH bond contributes only to the first derivative of DMF, and its conformational dependence is determined by the magnitude of the charge polarization of each structure. The electron density derivatives in the CC bond region were largely maintained during the internal rotation; thus, their conformation-dependent contributions were expressed by a geometrical factor of the CC bond direction. The CH bond at the antiperiplanar position of the OH bond was found to make a remarkably large contribution to the second derivative of DMF in the gauche conformer. The importance of electron density migration on substituents was also identified in the hydrogen-bonded phenol, in which the π-electron density change on the aromatic ring was clearly shown. This migration creates the DMF derivatives both perpendicular and parallel to the OH bond and strongly affects the absorption intensities. In all the cases, some bond moments on the substituents contribute to the first and second DMF derivatives in a structure-dependent manner, thus explaining their stereoelectronic effects.

Abstract
ICN is one of the few simple triatomic molecules whose photodissociation mechanisms have been thoroughly investigated. Since it has a linear structure in the electronic ground state, the dissociation follows a photoexcitation at a linear or slightly bent structure. It is generally believed that the Ã-band consists of the dominant excitation to 3Π0+ (4A') with the transition dipole moment (TDM) parallel to the molecular axis ( z), a slightly weaker transition to 1Π1 (5A', 4A″), and a much weaker transition to 3Π1 (3A', 2A″), both of the latter two having perpendicular TDMs. In the present work, we have theoretically studied the geometry dependence of these TDMs and found a pronounced θ (bending angle) dependence in the parallel ( z) component of the TDMs to 1Π1 (5A') and 3Π1 (3A'), both of which should be zero at a linear geometry by symmetry and thus have been previously ignored. We estimated that the z component TDM to 1Π1 (5A') has a contribution of 15-20% to the total absorption cross-section at 249 nm at room temperature. Interestingly, the TDM to 3Π0+ (4A') does not exhibit such θ dependency and thus has only the z component. We compare the TDMs of ICN and CH3I molecules having similar excited states. The fact that all the TDMs to 3A', 4A', and 5A' have nonnegligible z components implies the importance of the coherent excitation contributions to various observables of CN fragment, such as the anisotropy parameter, the orientation parameter, and the rotational level distribution as well as the rotational fine structure level distribution.

Abstract
One of the most spectacular yet unsolved problems for the ICN A ~ -band photodissociation is the non-statistical spin-rotation F1 = N + 1/2 and F2 = N - 1/2 populations for each rotation level N of the CN fragment. The F1 /F2 population difference function f(N) exhibits strong N and λ dependences with an oscillatory behavior. Such details were found to critically depend on the number of open-channel product states, namely, whether both I (2 P3/2 ) and I (2 P1/2 ) are energetically available or not as the dissociation partner. First, in the asymptotic region, the exchange and dipole-quadrupole inter-fragment interactions were studied in detail. Then, as the diabatic basis, we took the appropriate symmetry adapted products of the electronic and rotational wavefunctions for the F1 and F2 levels at the dissociation limits. We found that the adiabatic Hamiltonian exhibits Rosen-Zener-Demkov type nonadiabatic transitions reflecting the switch between the exchange interaction and the small but finite spin-rotation interaction within CN at the asymptotic region. This non-crossing type nonadiabatic transition occurs with the probability 1/2, that is, at the diabatic limit through a sudden switch of the quantization axis for CN spin S from the dissociation axis to the CN rotation axis N. We have derived semiclassical formulae for f(N) and the orientation parameters with a two-state model including the 3A' and 4A' electronic states, and with a four-state model including the 3A' through 6A' electronic states. These two kinds of interfering models explain general features of the F1 and F2 level populations observed by Zare's group and Hall's group, respectively. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Accurate theoretical calculation of photoelectron angular distributions for general molecules is becoming an important tool to image various chemical reactions in real time. We show in this article that not only photoionization total cross sections but also photoelectron angular distributions can be accurately calculated using complex Gauss-type orbital (cGTO) basis functions. Our method can be easily combined with existing quantum chemistry techniques including electron correlation effects, and applied to various molecules. The so-called two-potential formula is applied to represent the transition dipole moment from an initial bound state to a final continuum state in the molecular coordinate frame. The two required continuum functions, the zeroth-order final continuum state and the first-order wave function induced by the photon field, have been variationally obtained using the complex basis function method with a mixture of appropriate cGTOs and conventional real Gauss-type orbitals (GTOs) to represent the continuum orbitals as well as the remaining bound orbitals. The complex orbital exponents of the cGTOs are optimized by fitting to the outgoing Coulomb functions. The efficiency of the current method is demonstrated through the calculations of the asymmetry parameters and molecular-frame photoelectron angular distributions of H2+ and H2 . In the calculations of H2 , the static exchange and random phase approximations are employed, and the dependence of the results on the basis functions is discussed. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
The complex basis function (CBF) method applied to various atomic and molecular photoionization problems can be interpreted as an L2 method to solve the driven-type (inhomogeneous) Schrödinger equation, whose driven term being dipole operator times the initial state wave function. However, efficient basis functions for representing the solution have not fully been studied. Moreover, the relation between their solution and that of the ordinary Schrödinger equation has been unclear. For these reasons, most previous applications have been limited to total cross sections. To examine the applicability of the CBF method to differential cross sections and asymmetry parameters, we show that the complex valued solution to the driven-type Schrödinger equation can be variationally obtained by optimizing the complex trial functions for the frequency dependent polarizability. In the test calculations made for the hydrogen photoionization problem with five or six complex Slater-type orbitals (cSTOs), their complex valued expansion coefficients and the orbital exponents have been optimized with the analytic derivative method. Both the real and imaginary parts of the solution have been obtained accurately in a wide region covering typical molecular regions. Their phase shifts and asymmetry parameters are successfully obtained by extrapolating the CBF solution from the inner matching region to the asymptotic region using WKB method. The distribution of the optimized orbital exponents in the complex plane is explained based on the close connection between the CBF method and the driven-type equation method. The obtained information is essential to constructing the appropriate basis sets in future molecular applications. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
We have performed a theoretical analysis of the recently reported photoelectron (PE) spectra of the series of sandwich complex anions Ln(COT)2- (Ln = La-Lu, COT = 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene), focusing on the Ln dependence of the vertical detachment energies. For most Ln, the π molecular orbitals, largely localized on the COT ligands, have the energy order of e1g < e1u < e2g < e2u as in the actinide analogues, reflecting the substantial orbital interaction with the Ln 5d and 5p orbitals. Thus, it would be expected that the lanthanide contraction would increase the orbital interaction so that the overlaps between the COT π and Ln atomic orbitals tend to increase across the series. However, the PE spectra and theoretical calculations were not consistent with this expectation, and the details have been clarified in this study. Furthermore, the energy level splitting patterns of the anion and neutral complexes have been studied by multireference ab initio methods, and the X peak splittings observed in the PE spectra only for the middle-range Ln complexes were found to be due to the specific interaction between the Ln 4f and ligand π orbitals of the neutral complexes in e2u symmetry. Because the magnitude of this 4f-ligand interaction depends critically on the final state 4f electron configuration and the spin state, a significant Ln dependence in the PE spectra is explained.

Abstract
Semiclassical description of molecular vibrations has provided us with various computational approximations and enhanced our conceptual understanding of quantum mechanics. In this study, the transition moments of the OH stretching fundamental and overtone intensities (Δv = 1-6) of some alcohols and acids are calculated by three kinds of semiclassical methods, correspondence-principle (CP) approximation, quasiclassical approximation, and uniform WKB approximation, and their respective transition moments are compared to those by the quantum theory. On the basis of the local mode picture, the one-dimensional potential energy curves and the dipole moment functions (DMFs) were obtained by density functional theory calculations and then fitted to Morse functions and sixth-order polynomials, respectively. It was shown that both the transition energies and the absorption intensities derived in the semiclassical methods reproduced their respective quantum values. In particular, the CP approximation reproduces the quantum transition moments if the formula given by Naccache is used for the action integral value. On the basis of these semiclassical results, we present a picture to understand the small variance in the overtone intensities of these acids and alcohols. Another important result is the ratios of semiclassical-to-quantum transition moment are almost independent of the applied molecules even with a great molecular variance of the DMFs, and they depend only on the nature of the semiclassical approximations and the quantum number. The difference between the semiclassical and quantum transition moments was analyzed in terms of a hitherto unrecognized concept that the Fourier expansion of the time dependent DMF in the CP treatment is a kind of the wave function expansion method using trigonometric functions as the quotient functions. For a Morse oscillator, we derive the analytic and approximate expressions of the quotient functions in terms of the bond displace coordinate in both the CP and the quantum mechanical frameworks and discuss the methodological dependence of the calculated transition moments. As a byproduct, we have found a simple derivation of the DMF expression first derived by Timm and Mecke long time ago.

Abstract
It is known that the overtone intensities of some set of OH and CH stretching vibrations show only a weak dependence on the adjacent substituent, in sharp contrast to the much stronger dependence of their fundamental intensities. To understand this characteristic, we calculated the fundamental and overtone intensities of the Δv = 1-6 transitions for the OH stretching of alcohols and acids and the CH stretching of hydrocarbons with different types of hybridization. Based on the local-mode model, from the three components of the dipole moment function (DMF) of each molecule, a one-component effective DMF that recovered about 95% of the total intensity for the Δv = 1-6 transitions was constructed and expressed as a sixth-order polynomial of the bond displacement ΔR, with the leading expansion coefficients M1, M2, and M3 for the linear, quadratic, and cubic terms, respectively. When these coefficients for each molecule were represented as points in the coordinate system O-M1M2M3, the points for some set of molecules were found to lie on a straight line. Interestingly, the line had a direction cosine such that the resultant transition moments exhibited a small substituent dependence of the overtone intensities. Moreover, the slope of the line could be well approximated by the Morse exponential parameter and the bond distance. These characteristics of the DMFs can be rationalized by using the calculated transition moments and the wave function expansion method with the eigenfunction of the Morse potential. It was also verified by the quasiclassical method of Medvedev that these characteristics of the DMFs are the intrinsic reason for the weak substituent dependence of the overtone intensities. It is emphasized that the graphical representation of the DMF parameters provides a comprehensive tool for discussing various aspects of vibrational intensities.

Abstract
Within the framework of the complex basis function method, the photoionization cross sections of H(2)(+) and H(2) were calculated based on the variational principle for the frequency-dependent polarizabilities. In these calculations, complex orbital exponents of Gaussian-type basis functions for the final state continuum wavefunctions were fully optimized for each photon energy with the numerical Newton-Raphson method. In most cases, the use of only one or two complex Gaussian-type basis functions was enough to obtain excellent agreement with previous high precision calculations and available experimental results. However, there were a few cases, in which the use of complex basis functions having various angular momentum quantum numbers was crucial to obtain the accurate results. The behavior of the complex orbital exponents as a function of photon energy was discussed in relation to the scaling relation and the effective charge for photoelectron. The success of this method implies the effectiveness of the optimization of orbital exponents to reduce the number of basis functions and shows the possibility to calculate photoionization cross sections of general molecules using only Gaussian-type basis functions.

Abstract
We show a new direction to expand the applicability of the complex basis function method for calculating photoionization cross sections through the imaginary part of the frequency-dependent polarizability. Based on the variational stability of the frequency-dependent polarizability, we made nonlinear optimizations of complex orbital exponents in basis functions representing continuum wave functions, and obtained fairly accurate results for H atom with only one or two complex basis functions particularly with dipole velocity gauge. Results were almost independent of whether Slater-type or Gaussian-type orbitals are used, implying the applicability to general many electron problems. The method was also applied to the (1)S (1s)(2) --> (1)P (1s)(1)(kp)(1) cross section of He atom and the optimized complex orbital exponents were related to those of H atom through the scaling property. The nonlinear optimizations have converged smoothly and the cross sections were in excellent agreement with experiment throughout wide photon energies, which suggest the effectiveness of the approach for many-electron systems.

Abstract
We propose a new scheme for quantum dynamics control of multilevel system using intense lasers. To do so, we apply intense CW lasers to create a strongly coupled subsystem with which one can make the complementary space effectively isolated, and we apply the established control schemes to the isolated subsystem. We have also obtained an effective Hamiltonian for the target subsystem with the help of the second-order perturbation theory. Numerical demonstrations on model systems show that the present decomposition scheme effectively works for population dynamics control. It is also found that relaxation processes can be suppressed under the proposed scheme.

Abstract
A molecular beam of multilayer metal-benzene organometallic clusters Mn(C6H6)m (M = Al, Sc, Ti, and V) was produced by a laser vaporization synthesis method, and their magnetic deflections were measured. Multidecker sandwich clusters of transition-metal atoms and benzene Scn(C6H6)n+1 (n = 1, 2) and Vn(C6H6)n+1 (n = 1-4) possess magnetic moments that increase monotonously with n. The magnetic moments of Al(C6H6), Scn(C6H6)n+1, and Vn(C6H6)n+1 are smaller than that of their spin-only values as a result of intracluster spin relaxation, an effect that depends on the orbital angular momenta and bonding characters of the orbitals containing electron spin. While Ti(C6H6)2 was found to be nonmagnetic, Tin(C6H6)n+1 (n = 2, 3) possess nonzero magnetic moments. The mechanism of ferromagnetic spin ordering in M2(C6H6)3 (M = Sc, Ti, V) is discussed qualitatively in terms of molecular orbital analysis. These sandwich species represent a new class of one-dimensional molecular magnets in which the transition-metal atoms are formally zerovalent.

Abstract
Photodissociation of the gas-phase tri-iodide anion, I3-, was investigated using photofragment time of flight (TOF) mass spectrometry combined with the core extraction method. An analysis of the TOF profiles provided the kinetic energy and angular distributions of photofragment ions and photoneutrals, from which the photoproduct branching fractions were determined in the excitation energy range of 3.26-4.27 eV. The measurement has revealed that (1) in the entire energy range investigated, three-body dissociation occurs preferentially as the "charge-asymmetric" process I-(1S)+I(2P3/2)+I(2P3/2) with the yield of approximately 30%-40%, where the excess charge is localized on the end atoms of the dissociating I3-, and that (2) two-body dissociation via the 3Piu(0u+)<--1Sigmag+(0g+) excitation proceeds as I-(1S)+I2(X 1Sigmag+)/I2(A 3Pi1u) or I(2P3/2)+I2-(X 2Sigmau+) with the yield of approximately 60%, while that via the 1Sigmau+(0u+)<--1Sigmag+(0g+) excitation alternatively as I*(2P1/2)+I2-(X 2Sigmau+) or I-(1S)+I2(B 3Piu) with the yield of approximately 60%. Ab initio calculations including spin-orbit configuration interactions were also performed to gain precise information on the potential energy surfaces relevant to the I3- photodissociation. The calculations have shown the presence of conical intersections and avoided crossings located along the symmetric stretch coordinate near the ground-state equilibrium geometry of I3-, which play key roles for the two-body and the three-body product branching. The nonadiabatic nature of the I3- photodissociation dynamics is discussed by combining the experimental findings and the ab initio results.

Abstract
The mechanism of the photochromic cycloreversion reactions is theoretically examined in a model system of dithienylethenes by means of the CASSCF and CASPT2 methods. The structures of its conical intersections (CIs), which are the branching points of the internal conversions, were obtained. The analyses of the minimum energy paths from the Franck-Condon states and the CI points suggest that the cycloreversion reaction occurs during the intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR) toward the quasi-equilibrium on the 2A state. The current study of the model system will provide a basic insight for the photochromic molecular design.

Abstract
To gain insight on the absorption intensities, as well as the direction of the transition moment for the OH stretching vibration in alcohols and acids, we performed detailed analyses for nitric acid, acetic acid, methanol, tert-butyl alcohol, water, and OH radical. We obtained both the potential energy surface and the dipole moment function (DMF) by the B3LYP method and performed quantum mechanical vibrational calculation using the grid variational method based on the local mode model. In this work, we employed the sum rule of the absorption intensities for the one-dimensional (1-D) vibrational Hamiltonian to construct an effective 1-D DMF, which is responsible for the total sum of the overtone intensities. The direction of this effective DMF was found to be tilted away from the OH bond by about 30 degrees for the polyatomic molecules. The nonlinearity of the DMFs in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the OH bond is discussed to rationalize the tilting. Furthermore, we analyzed the effective 1-D DMFs with the vibrational wave function expansion method and derived the effective portion of the 1-D DMF that is responsible for the overtone transition moment.

Abstract
We have measured the photoelectron spectra of the multiple-decker 1:1 sandwich clusters of Eu(n)(COT)n- (n = 1-4; COT = 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene), synthesized in the gas phase, and studied theoretically the bonding scheme, charge distribution, valence orbital energies, and photodetachment energies. We calculated the ground electronic state X- and the first excited electronic state A-, both of which have strong ionic bonding and a characteristic charge distribution. Moreover, we found that the valence orbital energies of Eu (6s) and COT (L delta) depend strongly on cluster size and their positions in the clusters. With the calculated vertical detachment energies for these valence orbitals, we assigned the peaks in the experimental photoelectron spectra and analyzed the origin of their interesting behavior by employing simple point charge models. From these analyses, it became clear that the characteristic behavior of the spectra is due to the strong ionic bonding and the charge distribution. In addition, using the point charge models, we estimated the vertical detachment energies of the one-dimensional polymer [Eu(COT)]infinity-.

Abstract
A molecular beam of europium-cyclooctatetraene sandwich nanowires Eu(n)()(COT)(m)() was produced by a laser vaporization synthesis method. The formation mechanism of the nanowires was quantitatively revealed by photoelectron and photoionization spectroscopies of the Eu-COT species, together with supporting theoretical calculations. From these results, it is confirmed that growth processes extending the length of Eu-COT nanowires involve a series of elementary reactions in which efficient charge transfer occurs at the terminal reaction sites. In every elementary step, the reaction proceeds between one reactant having low ionization energy and the other reactant having high electron affinity, probably via a "harpoon" mechanism.

Abstract
Immobilization of liposomes on hydrophobized Sephacryl gel and controlled detachment of the liposomes from the gel were examined. The gel was chemically modified and bore octyl, hexadecyl or cholesteryl moiety via disulfide linkage as anchors to liposomal bilayer membrane. Upon interaction with the gel, egg phosphatidylcholine liposomes were successfully immobilized onto the gel. The gel with cholesteryl moiety showed 1.7 times higher liposome immobilization per anchor moiety than the gels with the alkyl moieties. The immobilization of liposomes on the gel was stable, and no significant spontaneous detachment of phospholipid or leakage of fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated dextran encapsulated in the immobilized liposomes was observed in 24h. Reductive cleavage of the disulfide linkage by dithiothreitol resulted in detachment of the liposomes from the gel. The majority of the detached liposomes were found encapsulating the dextran derivative, and these liposomes should have kept their structural integrity throughout the immobilization and the detachment processes. The release of the liposomes was insignificant until the ratio of the dithiothreitol to the hydrophobic anchor reached a threshold. The presence of the threshold suggests that the immobilization of liposomes should require a certain minimum number of the hydrophobic moieties anchored in the liposomal membrane. By applying the present immobilization-detachment system, preparation of liposomes encapsulating the dextran derivative without using costly gel filtration or ultracentrifugation procedure was successfully demonstrated.

Abstract
[structure: see text] The reaction pathway of the cyclopropanation catalyzed by the 3-oxobutylideneaminatocobalt(II) complex was analyzed by the density functional method to reveal that the axial donor ligand produced two prominent effects. One is that the activation energy for the formation of the cobalt carbene complex was reduced and that the activation energy for the cyclopropanation step was increased. The other is that the distance of the carbene carbon above the ligand plane was shortened during the cyclopropanation step.

Abstract
A 5-day Hershberger assay using young mature male rats to detect compounds interfering with androgen receptor (AR)-mediated mechanisms was evaluated for ability to identify p,p'-DDE (a weak AR antagonist) and methyltestosterone (MT, an AR agonist). Fenitrothion, an organophosphate pesticide, was also evaluated in this validated assay. Castrated male Crj:CD(SD)IGS rats (1 week after castration, 11 weeks of age) were subjected to experiments. To determine a suitable value of testosterone propionate (TP) as a reference androgen for detection of antiandrogenic chemicals, castrated male rats were treated daily with TP (0, 0.06, 0.25, 1, 4, or 16 mg/kg/day, s.c.). TP produced increases in weights of ventral prostate, seminal vesicles and levator ani plus bulbocavernosus muscles. Serum androgen level measured by RIA kit (mostly TP) were elevated in a dose-related manner, while the weights of organs with 1 mg/kg/day of TP were nearly equivalent to the maximum responses (i.e., sub-maximal). One hundred mg/kg/day of p,p'-DDE significantly attenuated TP 0.1 mg/kg-induced increases in weights of seminal vesicles and muscles, and TP 1 mg/kg-induced increases in weights of ventral prostate, seminal vesicles and muscles, but did not affect the weight of these organs in either TP 16 mg/kg-treated or intact rats, demonstrating that the dose range of 0.1-1 mg/kg TP is suitable for reference androgen. Oral treatment with 100 mg/kg of MT increased the weights of ventral prostate, seminal vesicles and muscles as strongly as did subcutaneous injection of 1 mg/kg of TP. These findings demonstrate that the 5-day Hershberger assay using young mature as well as immature male rats is a sensitive and valid short-term screening method for the detection of chemicals interfering with AR-mediated mechanisms. To determine whether fenitrothion interferes with AR-mediated mechanisms in vivo, fenitrothion (0, 0.75, 1.5 or 3 mg/kg/day) was administered by gavage for 5 days to castrated rats for androgenicity, or to castrated rats treated with 1 mg/kg TP for antiandrogenicity. Treatment with fenitrothion had no adverse effects on clinical signs, body weight, or liver or kidney weights, but cholinesterase activities in the brain and erythrocytes were significantly suppressed by fenitrothion to, respectively, 77-81% and 66-67% of control levels. In the antiandrogenicity experiment, serum androgen levels of TP-treated, castrated rats did not differ among groups. Treatment with 100 mg/kg of p,p'-DDE as a positive control again significantly attenuated TP-induced increases in weights of the ventral prostate and seminal vesicles, while fenitrothion had no effect on the weights of any organs. In the androgenicity experiment, treatment with 100 mg/kg of MT significantly increased weights of ventral prostate, seminal vesicles and muscles, but fenitrothion had no effects on the weights of any of these organs. These findings yield no evidence that fenitrothion interferes with AR-mediated mechanisms in vivo, consistent with the result of several toxicological bioassays.
