    The X-ray crystal structure determination of a Pt(IV) nucleobase complex, trans,trans,trans-[Pt(NH3)(2)(1-MeU)(2)(H3O2)](n)(NO3)(n) .(4H(2)O)(n) (1-MeU = 1-methyluracilate-N3) is reported. The compound, obtained upon recrystallization of trans,trans,trans-[Pt(NH3)(2)(1-MeUH)(2)(OH)(2)](NO3)(2) (1-MeUH = neutral 1-methyluracil-N3) from water, crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P-1 with two independent cations in the unit cell: a = 7.3023(8), b = 10.1470(20), c = 13.4220(20) Angstrom, alpha = 78.800(17), beta = 83.580(9), gamma = 78.930(10)degrees, V = 954.6(3) Angstrom(3), Z = 2. Description of its solid state structure as a H2O2- compound rather than a genuine mixed H2O,OH- complex is based on the presence of very short H bonds of 2.450(6) Angstrom between the oxygens of axial aqua and hydroxo ligands of adjacent Pt(IV) cations, leading to infinite chains

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
