Treatment of CuI with the flexible PhS(CH(2))(4)SPh dithioether ligand in MeCN solution affords the strongly luminescent metal-organic 2D coordination polymer [Cu(4)I(4){mu-PhS(CH(2))(4)SPh}(2)](n) (). The interpenetrated 2D network of is built upon by Cu(4)(mu(3)-I)(4) cubane-like clusters as secondary building units (SBUs), which are interconnected via bridging 1,4-bis(phenylthio)butane ligan...

Inorganic tennis balls (ITBs), [[{Pt(betmp)(dach)}(2)Cu](2)(X)][X](3) (in which X=ClO(4) (-) (3), NO(3) (-) (4), Cl(-) (5) and Br(-) (6); dach=trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and betmp=bisethylthiomethylidenepropanedioate) and [[{Pt(dteym)(dach)}(2)Cu](2)(PF(6))][PF(6)](3) (7; dteym=1,3-dithiepane-2-ylidenemalonate), were prepared as crystals. Investigation of their X-ray crystal structures reveal...

Hadron production at high-pT displays a strong suppression pattern in a wide rapidity region in heavy ion collisions at RHIC energies. This finding indicates the presence of strong final state effects for both transversally and longitudinally traveling partons, namely induced energy loss. We have developed a perturbative QCD based model to describe hadron production in pp collision, which can b...

To better understand the mechanism of steps in early transcription by RNA polymerase II (pol II), we investigated the molecular determinants of transcript slipping within complexes assembled on promoters containing a pre-melted transcription bubble from -9 to +3. Transcript slippage occurs when an RNA transcript contains a repetitive sequence that allows the transcript to slip back and pair wit...

The methanol extract of kirinyuh leaves ( Chromolaena odorata (L). R.M.King & H.Rob. ) is able to inhibit the growth gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus so that it has potential as an active substance for hand washing soap. In this study, liquid soap was made with a concentration 0.01% leaf using base gelling agent Carbopol. optimum Carbopol viscosity 2217 cPs 0.6%. preparation analyzed inc...
