One of the most fundamental properties of human primary visual cortex (V1) is its retinotopic organization, which makes it an ideal candidate for encoding spatial properties, such as size, of objects. However, three-dimensional (3D) contextual information can lead to size illusions that are reflected in the spatial pattern of activity in V1 [1]. A critical question is how complex 3D contextual ...

In the title mol-ecule, C(14)H(20)N(2)O, the piperidine ring has a chair conformation and its N atom is close to planar (bond-angle sum = 357.5°). The dihedral angle between the amide group and the aromatic ring is 47.43 (19)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into [100] C(4) chains by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

In the title compound, C(12)H(9)BrFNO, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 51.39 (5)°; the C atom of the meth-oxy group is close to being coplanar with its attached ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0172 Å] and is oriented away from the pyridine ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules inter-act by van der Waals forces.

In the title compound, C(13)H(17)ClN(2)O, the piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation and the N atom in that ring is close to pyramidal (bond angle sum = 357.5°). In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into C(4) chains propagating in [010] by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

In the title compound, C(14)H(12)ClNO(2), the chloro- and meth-oxy-substituted benzene rings are close to orthogonal [dihedral angle = 79.20 (3)°]. These rings also make angles of 45.9 (3) and 33.5 (3)° with the amide -CONH- unit. The meth-oxy substituent lies close to the meth-oxy-benzene ring plane, with a maximum deviation of 0.142 (3) Å for the methyl C atom. The N-H bond is anti to the 2-c...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(11)H(8)BrN(3)O, is close to planar (r.m.s. deviation of all 16 non-H atoms = 0.103 Å), a conformation stabilized by an intra-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bond, which generates an S(5) ring. In the crystal structure, supra-molecular chains mediated by C-H⋯O contacts (along a) are linked into a double layer via N⋯Br halogen bonds [3.207 (5) Å] and C-Br⋯π inter-a...

We examine bankruptcy spillovers between very close neighbors. Our fine grained location data allows us to use the cross-sectional difference methodology (e.g. Grinblatt, Keloharju, Ikaheimo (2008), Campbell, Giglio, Pathak (2011)) to control for non-random neighborhood sorting and unobservable neighborhood shocks. This approach subtracts characteristics of inner-ring neighbors (14 households o...

In the title compound, C(31)H(28)ClN(3)O(8), the pyrrolidine ring exhibits an envelope conformation, with the spiro C atom located at the flap position. A spiro junction links the oxindole ring system and the pyrrolidine ring. The planar oxindole ring system is twisted with respect to the nitro-benzene and chloro-benzene rings, with dihedral angles of 62.34 (11) and 75.93 (9)°, respectively. In...

In the title compound, C(17)H(14)BrClN(4)O(2), the pyrazole ring is almost coplanar with the benzene ring [dihedral angle = 0.5 (2)°], whereas the pyrazole ring is close to perpendicular to the 3-chloro-pyridine ring [dihedral angle = 73.7 (2)°]. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs. The dominant inter-action in the crystal packing is an N-H⋯N hydrogen bond, which generates a chain alo...

In the title compound, C(32)H(25)NO(3), the pyrrolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation, whereas the cyclo-hexa-none ring in the tetra-hydro-naphthalene fused-ring system adopts a half-chair conformation. The indanedione unit is oriented at an angle of 58.9 (1)° with respect to the naphthyl ring system. Three intra-molecular C-H⋯O close contacts and an intra-molecular C-H⋯π inter-action ar...
