We have shown for the first time, by simply exploiting the hard/soft nature of ligands, single ion magnetic anisotropy of Co(ii) tetrahedral complexes can be switched (+ve to −ve orvice versa) rationally.

A stereoselective synthesis of the dibenzocyclooctadiene ­lignan core of the natural product schisandrene is described. Starting from readily available gallic acid, the synthetic strategy involves Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling, Stille reaction, and ring-closing metathesis (RCM) in the reaction sequence. The required asymmetric center at C-7′ was established by an asymmetric reduction of a keto compound using the Corey–Bakshi–Shibata (CBS) catalyst. In our approach, the eight-membered ring was achieved by RCM for the first time.

A convenient synthetic strategy is reported for the series of complexes [Ir(pp)3]3+ (where pp = phen, Me2phen and Me4phen) through the intermediacy of the appropriate [Ir(pp)2(CF3SO3)2]+ species. In the case of [Ir(phen)3]3+, the cation was resolved into its enantiomeric forms, for which the absolute configurations were determined by X-ray diffraction. The availability for the first time of the CD spectra allowed comparison with computed CD spectra. Measurement of the antimicrobial activity of the [Ir(pp)3]3+ species {and the [Ir(pp)2X2]+ (X = Cl–, CF3SO3–) precursors involved in their synthesis}, as well as cell uptake studies with the four bacterial strains S. aureus, methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), E. coli, and P. aeruginosa, indicated that they showed little activity compared with their Ru(ii) analogues. The results suggest that it is unfavourable for an individual metal centre with a 3+ charge to pass across the bacterial cell membrane.

An efficient solid-phase synthesis approach is here reported for the first time to prepare the EGFR inhibitor Gefitinib. The five-step synthetic strategy used FMP resin as the solid support, and FTIR and colorimetric assays were used to track the reaction’s progress. Gefitinib was obtained with an overall yield of 40%.

Co/Pd magnetic multilayers have been prepared by using a sputtering method. Lattice distances and magnetic hysteresis curves have been measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements and magnetization measurements using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The XRD measurements have shown that the samples with thinner Pd layers have shorter lattice distances, and the VSM measurements have shown that the samples of thinner Co and thicker Pd layers are closer to those of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. We have applied the X-ray magnetic diffraction method to the Co/Pd multilayer for the first time and have succeeded in observing a change in the X-ray diffraction intensities by the reversal of the magnetization direction.

AbstractA practical eight-step synthesis of lignanamide cannabisin F starting from vanillin is reported for the first time. This synthetic strategy applies the aldol reaction followed by the Wittig reaction to afford the key 8-O-4′-neolignan intermediate diacid. The diacid was condensed with N,O-protected tyramine giving, after deprotection, cannabisin F.

Three dysprosium(III) single-molecule magnets (SMMs) with the rare hexagonal bipyramidal geometry have been isolated for the first time. Following a novel synthetic strategy where the strong uniaxial ligand field generated by the Ph<sub>3</sub>SiO<sup>-</sup> (Ph<sub>3</sub>SiO<sup>-</sup> = anion of triphenylsilanol) and the 2,4-di-<sup>t</sup>Bu-PhO<sup>-</sup> (2,4-di-<sup>t</sup>Bu-PhO<sup>-</sup> = anion of 2,4-di-tertbutylphenol) ligands combined with the weak equatorial field of the ligand L<sup>N6</sup>, leads to [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L<sup>N6</sup>)(2,4-di-<sup>t</sup>Bu-PhO)<sub>2</sub>](PF<sub>6</sub>) (<b>1</b>), [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L<sup>N6</sup>)(Ph<sub>3</sub>SiO)<sub>2</sub>](PF<sub>6</sub>) (<b>2</b>) and [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L<sup>N6</sup>)(Ph<sub>3</sub>SiO)<sub>2</sub>](BPh<sub>4</sub>) (<b>3</b>) hexagonal bipyramidal complexes with high anisotropy barriers of U<sub>eff</sub> = 973 K for <b>1</b>, U<sub>eff</sub> = 1080 K for <b>2</b> and U<sub>eff</sub> = 1124 K for <b>3 </b>under zero applied dc field. <i>Ab initio</i> calculations predict that the dominant magnetization reversal barrier of these complexes expands up to the 3rd Kramers doublet, thus revealing for the first time the exceptional uniaxial magnetic anisotropy that even the six equatorial donor atoms fail to negate, opening up the possibility to other higher-order symmetry SMMs. <br>

Abstract. In this paper, the effect of Al3+ ions substitutions on the value of the effective magnetic anisotropy field НАeff and the degree of magnetic texture f of the anisotropic polycrystalline hexagonal barium and strontium ferrites were studied. The samples were obtained by the ceramic technology method and the texture was formed by pressing in a magnetic field. The sample preparation technology presented in detail. The batches of barium hexaferrites were synthesized with the concentration of Al3+ ions: 0.9; 1.4; 2.5 and 2.6 formula units while strontium hexaferrites had Al3+ concentration of 0.1 formula units. It has been shown that by this technology barium and strontium hexaferrites with high value of (in range of 19—35 kOe) and with f = 80—83% could be obtained. The achieved values of НАeff and f could be sufficient for the production of substrates for microstrip microwave devices in millimeter−wave region.For the first time a raise in the degree of magnetic texture of polycrystalline barium hexaferrites with an increase of concentration of Al3+ ions were detected; a slight (5.5—5.8%) magnetic texture of isotropic strontium hexaferrites was also detected. The achieved results discussed in detail. For studied hexaferrites the mechanism of magnetic texture formation during the process of synthesis is proposed.

A block synthetic strategy to Cryptococcus neoformans glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) capsular polysaccharide part structures has been developed based on di-, tri-, tetra-, penta- and hexasaccharide thioglycoside building blocks. The approach permitted the synthesis of a library of spacer-containing serotype A and D related GXM oligosaccharide structures, ranging from di- to octadecasaccharides. Ten deprotected GXM compounds (mono- to decasaccharide) were printed onto microarray plates and screened with seventeen mouse monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to GXM. For the first time a GXM oligosaccharide structure (a serotype A decasaccharide), capable of being recognized by neutralizing forms of these GXMspecific mAbs, has been identified, offering insight into the binding epitopes of a range of protective monoclonal antibodies and furthering our efforts to develop semi-synthetic conjugate vaccine candidates against C. neoformans.<br>
