- Crystalline N,N-cyclo-pentamethylenedithiocarbamate (PmDtc) cadmium(II) complex was prepared and studied by means of 15N, 113Cd CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The unit cell of the cadmium(II) compound comprises two centrosymmetric isomeric binuclear molecules [Cd2{S2CN(CH2)5}4], which display structural inequivalence in both 15N and 113Cd NMR and XRD data. There are pairs of the dithiocarbamate ligands exhibiting different structural functions in both isomeric molecules. Each of the terminal ligands is bidentately coordinated to the cadmium atom and forms a planar four-membered chelate ring [CdS2C]; whereas pairs of the tridentate bridging ligands combine two neighbouring cadmium atoms forming an extended eight-membered tricyclic moieties [Cd2S4C2], whose geometry can be approximated by a ‘chair' conformation. The structural states of cadmium atoms were characterised by almost axially symmetric 113Cd chemical shift tensors. All experimental 15N resonance lines were assigned to the nitrogen structural sites in both isomeric binuclear molecules.

- O,O′-dipropyldithiophosphate and O,O′-di-iso-butyldithiophosphate (Dtph) tetraphenylantimony(V) complexes of the general formula [Sb(C6H5)4{S2P(OR)2}] (R = C3H7, i-C4H9) were prepared and studied by means of 13C, 31P CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Distorted octahedral and trigonal bipyramidal molecular structures have been established for prepared complexes. These unexpected structural distinctions between chemically related compounds are defined by the principally different coordination modes of O,O′-dipropyldithiophosphate and O,O′-di-iso-butyldithiophosphate ligands in their molecular structures (i.e., S,S′-bidentate chelating and S-unidentately coordinated, respectively). To characterise quantitatively phosphorus sites in both species of dithiophosphate ligands, 31P chemical shift anisotropy parameters (δaniso and η) were calculated from spinning sideband manifolds in MAS NMR spectra. The 31P chemical shift tensors for the bidentate chelating and unidentately coordinated dithiophosphate ligands display a profoundly rhombic and nearly axially symmetric characters, respectively.

- Four different dialkyldithiophosphate (DTP) ions, (RO)2PSS– (R = C3H7, iso-C3H7, iso-C4H9, cyclo-C6H11) have been adsorbed on the surface of synthetically prepared stibnite, Sb2S3, and studied by means of 31P CP/MAS NMR. Corresponding individual [Sb{(S2P(OR)2}3] complexes have also been synthesized and used for comparison with the surface adsorbed DTP species. The results show that a low concentration of collector at the surface leads to a chemisorbed monolayer of DTP on the mineral surface. At high concentration of DTP, a surface precipitate of Sb(DTP)3 is formed. 31P CP/MAS NMR and chemical shift anisotropy data indicate that the S–P–S bite angle of the chemisorbed DTP groups on the surface is larger than in the corresponding precipitated complexes and the coordination of the ligands differ. Using single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique, the molecular structure of a solvated form of crystalline O,O’-di-cyclo-hexyldithiophosphate antimony(III) complex has been resolved. In this novel molecular structure, the central antimony atom S,S’-anisobidentately coordinates three structurally non-equivalent DTP groups and, therefore, the geometry of the [SbS6] chromophore can be approximated by a distorted octahedron. Besides that, useful correlations between 31P CSA parameters and structural data on this complex were also established.

- Crystalline bis(N,N-di-iso-butyldithiocarbamato-S,S′)(pyridine)cadmium(II) – adduct 1 was prepared and studied by means of multinuclear 13C, 15N, 113Cd CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and simultaneous thermal analysis (STA). In molecular structure 1, the cadmium atom coordinates with four sulphur atoms and one nitrogen atom of pyridine, forming a coordination polyhedron [CdS4N] whose geometry is an almost ideal tetragonal pyramidal (C4v). The coordinated py molecule is in the apical position, while two structurally non-equivalent di-iso-butyldithiocarbamate ligands, playing the same terminal S,S’-chelating function, define the basal plane. To characterise additionally the structural state of the cadmium atom in this five-fold coordination, 113Cd chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) parameters, δaniso and η, were calculated from experimental MAS NMR spectra that revealed an almost axially symmetric 113Cd chemical shift tensor. From a combination of TG and DSC measurements taken under an argon atmosphere, we found that the mass of adduct 1 is lost in two steps involving initial desorption of coordinated py molecules with subsequent thermal destruction of liberated cadmium(II) di-iso-butyldithiocarbamate, with yellow-orange, fine-powdered solid CdS as the final product.

- Crystalline bis(O,O’-di-sec-butyldithiophosphato)platinum(II) was prepared and studied by means of 31P, 13C CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The unit cell of the platinum(II) compound is comprised of one centrosymmetric mononuclear molecule [Pt{S2P(O-sec-C4H9)2}2], in which the dithiophosphate groups display structural equivalence in both 31P NMR and XRD data. A pair of the dithiophosphate ligands exhibit the same S,S’-bidentate chelating structural function and form two planar four-membered chelate rings, [PtS2P], in this molecule. The planar configuration of the [PtS4] chromophore in structure 1 is governed by the dsp2-hybrid state of platinum(II). The structural states of the dithiophosphate groups in two different samples of complex 1 (one crystallised from ethanol and the other one precipitated from an aqueous solution) are all characterised by almost rhombic 31P chemical shift tensors. The observed essential dispersion of the 31P NMR chemical shift is caused by a coexistence of six optical isomers of molecule 1. The thermal behaviour of this compound was studied by means of simultaneous thermal analysis (a combination of TG and DSC) under an argon atmosphere. The thermal behaviour shows that the mass of 1 is lost in three steps, involving successive thermal decompositions of the organic and inorganic parts of this compound with platinum(II) dithio-meta-phosphate and reduced metallic platinum as the intermediate and the final products, respectively.

- Two new dialkyldithiocarbamato platinum(II) complexes of [Pt(S2CNR)2], R = iso-C3H7 (1) and iso-C4H9 (2), have been prepared and characterised using 13C CP-MAS NMR. The crystal and molecular structures of the isolated compounds were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The unit cell of 1 contains four centrosymmetric discrete molecules of [Pt{S2CN(iso-C3H7)2}2], of which the pairs are structurally inequivalent to each other (hereafter denoted as molecules 1a and 1b). At the supramolecular level, due to numerous intermolecular C–H···S hydrogen bonds, the 1a molecules form linear polymeric ribbons, whose interaction with the 1b molecules results in a two-dimensional polymeric network. In the structure of 2, the construction of supramolecular zigzag chains by non-centrosymmetric molecules of [Pt{S2CN(iso-C4H9)2}2] is determined by intermolecular C–H···Pt anagostic interactions. The thermal behaviour of crystalline compounds 1 and 2 was studied by simultaneous thermal analysis (STA), a combination of the TG and DSC techniques, under an argon atmosphere. In both cases, platinum(II) sulphide (PtS) was identified as the main end-product upon thermal decomposition of the complexes at 600 °C.

- Laminar burning velocities of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) + air flames at initial gas mixture temperatures of 298, 318, 338, and 358 K are reported. Nonstretched flames were stabilized on a perforated plate burner at atmospheric pressure, and the laminar burning velocities were determined using the heat flux method. The overall accuracy of the burning velocities was evaluated to be typically better than +/- 1 cm/s. The effects of unburned mixture temperature on the laminar burning velocity of DMC were analyzed using the correlation S-L = S (T-u/T-u0)(alpha). The present experimental results indicated that the power exponent a reaches a minimum in slightly rich mixtures corresponding to the maximum burning velocity. Modeling of these results has been attempted using the mechanism developed by Glaude et al. It was found that this model significantly overpredicts laminar burning velocities of methanol, ethanol, and DMC; however, it accurately reproduces the temperature power exponent alpha for dimethyl carbonate flames.

- Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) with N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) conjugation for improved liver uptake represent an emerging class of drugs to treat liver diseases. Understanding how pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics translate is pivotal for in vivo study design and human dose prediction. However, the literature is sparse on translational data for this modality, and pharmacokinetics in the liver is seldom measured. To overcome these difficulties, we collected time-course biomarker data for 11 GalNAc-siRNAs in various species and applied the kinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling approach to estimate the biophase (liver) half-life and the potency. Our analysis indicates that the biophase half-life is 0.6-3 weeks in mouse, 1-8 weeks in monkey, and 1.5-14 weeks in human. For individual siRNAs, the biophase half-life is 1-8 times longer in human than in mouse, and generally 1-3 times longer in human than in monkey. The analysis indicates that the siRNAs are more potent in human than in mouse and monkey.

- Reversible changes of the height of a polymer brush containing phenylboronic acid were studied. The polymer brush thickness underwent reversible changes of 0.5-1 nm, in response to the changes in composition of the contacting aqueous phase from deionized water to bicarbonate buffer and vice versa, apparently due to the conformational transition of the weak polyelectrolyte to the more extended electrically charged state. Adsorption of mucin glycoprotein to the polymer brush took place due to boronate/sugar interactions between the glycoprotein and the graft copolymer and resulted in further increase of the brush height by ca. 1.5 nm, as observed by means of spectral correlation spectroscopy and ellipsometry.

- To improve the epigenomic analysis of tissues rich in 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC), we developed a novel protocol called TAB-Methyl-SEQ, which allows for single base resolution profiling of both hmC and 5-methylcytosine by targeted next-generation sequencing. TAB-Methyl-SEQ data were extensively validated by a set of five methodologically different protocols. Importantly, these extensive cross-comparisons revealed that protocols based on Tet1-assisted bisulfite conversion provided more precise hmC values than TrueMethyl-based methods. A total of 109 454 CpG sites were analyzed by TAB-Methyl-SEQ for mC and hmC in 188 genes from 20 different adult human livers. We describe three types of variability of hepatic hmC profiles: (i) sample-specific variability at 40.8% of CpG sites analyzed, where the local hmC values correlate to the global hmC content of livers (measured by LC-MS), (ii) gene-specific variability, where hmC levels in the coding regions positively correlate to expression of the respective gene and (iii) site-specific variability, where prominent hmC peaks span only 1 to 3 neighboring CpG sites. Our data suggest that both the gene-and site-specific components of hmC variability might contribute to the epigenetic control of hepatic genes. The protocol described here should be useful for targeted DNA analysis in a variety of applications.
