An ongoing theme in our research group involves the development of biomimetic transition metal complexes that serve to activate small molecules, promote reactions similar to those of metalloenzymes, and provide new synthetic routes to novel ligands. In one instance, we have developed models of iron-containing bleomycin that rely on robust tetradentate aminopyridine macrocyclic (PyMAC) ligands. These simple systems serve as rigid scaffolds that are suitable for coordination of transition metal ions and their success as structural and functional models has led to the design and study of more elaborate ligand architectures. Our group has developed novel PyMACs containing functionalized pendant arms that can provide an additional donor atom as well as modulate the spin state of the metal center. A second area of focus involves the template synthesis of a wide range of imidoylamidines promoted by a urease model complex containing Ni(II) supported by tert-butyl-dipicolylamine (tBuDPA). Structures of the model complex with a bound imidoylamidine reveal that the tertiary amine donor atom of tBuDPA behaves in a similar fashion to pendant arm donor atoms in PyMAC ligands and its degree of coordination dictates the metal's spin state. Novel iron(II) and copper(II) complexes supported by our modified PyMAC ligands as well as examples of our structurally characterized nickel(II) imidoylamide and imidoylamidine complexes will be presented.

Oxygen coordination to the Xe(VI) atom of XeO<sub>3</sub> was observed in its adducts with triphenylphosphine oxide, dimethylsulfoxide, pyridine-N-oxide, and acetone. The crystalline adducts were characterized by low-temperature, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Unlike solid XeO<sub>3</sub>, which detonates when mechanically or thermally shocked, the solid [(C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>PO]<sub>2</sub>XeO<sub>3</sub>, [(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>SO]<sub>3</sub>(XeO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>,<sub> </sub>and (C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>5</sub>NO)<sub>3</sub>(XeO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> adducts are insensitive to mechanical shock, but undergo rapid deflagration when ignited by a flame. Both [(C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>PO]<sub>2</sub>XeO<sub>3 </sub>and (C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>5</sub>NO)<sub>3</sub>(XeO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> are air-stable whereas [(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>SO]<sub>3</sub>(XeO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> slowly decomposes over several days and [(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>CO]<sub>3</sub>XeO<sub>3</sub> undergoes adduct dissociation at room temperature. The xenon coordination sphere of [(C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>PO]<sub>2</sub>XeO<sub>3</sub> is a distorted square pyramid which provides the first example of a five-coordinate XeO<sub>3</sub> adduct. The xenon coordination spheres of the remaining adducts are distorted octahedra comprised of three Xe---O secondary contacts that are approximately trans to the primary Xe–O bonds of XeO<sub>3</sub>. Quantum-chemical calculations were used to assess the Xe---O adduct bonds, which are predominantly electrostatic σ-hole bonds between the nucleophilic oxygen atoms of the bases and the σ-holes of the xenon atoms.

Adsorption data for the impregnation of alumina with an aqueous solution of cobalt dichloride and ammonium molybdate were treated in terms of the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and compared with a mathematical model set up to describe the kinetics of simultaneous impregnation of a support by two components. The effective diffusion coefficients of the two components at 25 °C in a cylindrical particle of alumina were obtained. The validity of the model used was verified qualitatively by comparing the numerical results with the experimental time dependent concentration profiles of the active components in a catalyst particle, measured by electron microanalysis technique.

This contribution presents the results of the TD-DFT and CASSCF/CASPT2 calculations on [W(CO)4(MeDAB)] (MeDAB = N,N'-dimethyl-1,4-diazabutadiene), [W(CO)4(en)] (en = ethylenediamine), [W(CO)5(py)] (py = pyridine) and [W(CO)5(CNpy)] (CNpy = 4-cyanopyridine) complexes. Contrary to the textbook interpretation, calculations on the model complex [W(CO)4(MeDAB)] and [W(CO)5(CNpy)] show that the lowest W→MeDAB and W→CNpy MLCT excited states are immediately followed in energy by several W→CO MLCT states, instead of ligand-field (LF) states. The lowest-lying excited states of [W(CO)4(en)] system were characterized as W(COeq)2→COax CT excitations, which involve a remarkable electron density redistribution between axial and equatorial CO ligands. [W(CO)5(py)] possesses closely-lying W→CO and W→py MLCT excited states. The calculated energies of these states are sensitive to the computational methodology used and can be easily influenced by a substitution effect. The calculated shifts of [W(CO)4(en)] stretching CO frequencies due to excitation are in agreement with picosecond time-resolved infrared spectroscopy experiments and confirm the occurrence of low-lying M→CO MLCT transitions. No LF electronic transitions were found for either of the complexes studied in the region up to 4 eV.

Integrative data analysis (IDA) is a promising new approach in psychological research and has been well received in the field of alcohol research. This chapter provides a larger unifying research synthesis framework for IDA. Major advantages of IDA of individual participant-level data include better and more flexible ways to examine subgroups, model complex relationships, deal with methodological and clinical heterogeneity, and examine infrequently occurring behaviors. However, between-study heterogeneity in measures, designs, and samples and systematic study-level missing data are significant barriers to IDA and, more broadly, to large-scale research synthesis. Based on the authors’ experience working on the Project INTEGRATE data set, which combined individual participant-level data from 24 independent college brief alcohol intervention studies, it is also recognized that IDA investigations require a wide range of expertise and considerable resources and that some minimum standards for reporting IDA studies may be needed to improve transparency and quality of evidence.

Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is characterized by simplicity, generalization ability, and computational efficiency. However, previous ELMs fail to consider the inherent high-order relationship among data points, resulting in being powerless on structured data and poor robustness on noise data. This paper presents a novel semi-supervised ELM, termed Hypergraph Convolutional ELM (HGCELM), based on using hypergraph convolution to extend ELM into the non-Euclidean domain. The method inherits all the advantages from ELM, and consists of a random hypergraph convolutional layer followed by a hypergraph convolutional regression layer, enabling it to model complex intraclass variations. We show that the traditional ELM is a special case of the HGCELM model in the regular Euclidean domain. Extensive experimental results show that HGCELM remarkably outperforms eight competitive methods on 26 classification benchmarks.

AbstractTwo novel mixed-ligand coordination polymers, {[Co(tdc)(btrp)]·0.67DMF}n (1) and {[Zn2(bimb)2(tdc)2]·2H2O}n (2) involving 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylate (H2tdc), and bitopic flexible N-donor ligands, 1,3-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propane (btrp) and 1,4-bis((1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)methyl)benzene (bimb), have been synthesized by the hydrothermal method and characterized via IR, elemental analysis, thermal analysis, and powder X-ray diffraction. The biological functional studies were performed; the treatment activity of the compounds on periodontitis and the specific mechanism was explored. First, the real-time RT-PCR was carried out to determine the inflammatory genes nf-κb and p53 relative expression in periodontal mucosal cells after treating with compounds 1 and 2. Then, the level of the inflammatory cytokine in the gingival crevicular fluid after treating with compounds was also determined by the ELISA detection kit.
