The synthesis and characterization of new zirconium permethylpentalene (form)amidinate complexes are described: Pn*Zr{N(Dipp)2CH}Cl (1), Pn* = ?8-C8Me6 Dipp 2,6-iPr-C6H3; [Pn*Zr{N(p-tol)2CH}Cl]2 (2), p-tol 4-Me-C6H4; [Pn*Zr{N(iPr)2CMe}Cl]2 (3); Pn*Zr{N(iPr)2CPh}Cl (4); Pn*Zr{N(4-Me-C6H4)2CH}2 (5); [Pn*Zr{N(iPr)2CCH2}]2 (6); Pn*Zr{N(iPr)2CPh}(O-2,6,-Me-C6H3) (7). monohalide derivatives 1–4 demon...

Diorganozinc compounds (ZnR2) with R = CH2Ph or CH2CH=CH2 react with 2,6-bisiminopyridines ((iPr)BIP) to afford thermally stable dihydropyridinate(-1) complexes, and do not react if R = CH2SiMe3 or CH2CMe2Ph. NMR studies reveal that dibenzylzinc binds (iPr)BIP at -80 °C, yielding the unstable complex [Zn(CH2Ph)2((iPr)BIP)]. Above -20 °C, this undergoes selective alkyl migration to the remote 4 ...

in this paper pi, szeged and revised szeged indices of an infinite family of ipr fullereneswith exactly 60+12n carbon atoms are computed. a gap program is also presented that isuseful for our calculations.

Private rights in living objects have always been controversial. Agriculture provided the first wave in human civilization. Therefore, agriculture including plant breeding and agricultural methods pre-dated any form of IPR protection unlike industry and commerce. Traditionally, IPR was not applied to agriculture. In recent times, this position has changed and increasingly agriculture is seen as...

The ability of gold-hydroxides to fix CO2 is reported. [Au(IPr)(OH)] and [{Au(IPr)}2(μ-OH)][BF4] react with atmospheric CO2 to form the trigold carbonate complex [{Au(IPr)}3(μ(3)-CO3)][BF4]. Reactivity studies revealed that this complex behaves as two basic and one cationic Au centres, and that it is catalytically active. DFT calculations and kinetic experiments have been carried out.

The most abundant fullerenes, C60 and C70, and all the pure-carbon fullerenes larger than C70 synthesized so far follow the isolated-pentagon rule (IPR). Fullerenes containing adjacent pentagons (APs) are less stable due to the additional strain. Surprisingly, recent experiments have shown that a few endohedral fullerenes, for which IPR structures are possible, hence expected to be the most sta...

The long-term outcomes of interdisciplinary pain rehabilitation (IPR) in patients with chronic musculoskeletal (CMP) and its predictors has been studied to a limited extent. In this historical cohort study, functioning, satisfaction life domains, were assessed at baseline, discharge, 6–15 years follow-up. At follow-up, most (77%) rated the effects IPR as temporarily or persistently positive. ga...

The coordination properties of the EN ligands N-(2-pyridinyl)amino-diphenylphosphine sulfide, N-(2-pyridinyl)amino-diisopropylphosphine sulfide, N-(2-pyridinyl)amino-diphenylphosphine selenide, N-(2-pyridinyl)amino-diisopropylphosphine selenide towards copper(I) precursors CuX (X = Br, I), [Cu(IPr)Cl] (IPr = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene), and [Cu(CH(3)CN)(4)]PF(6) were studi...

Wild bee conservation is regarded as essential for sustainable production of pollinator-dependent crops, yet little is known about the effects on wild bee communities of typical insect pest management programs used postbloom. We developed an insecticide program risk (IPR) index to quantify the relative risk to wild bees of insecticide programs applied to blueberry fields. This was used to deter...
