Stereochemical pattern of phosphine oxidation by a peroxometallacyclic platinum complex. Evidence of an intramolecular process
The prochiral peroxometallacyclic ketenyl platinum complex [(PPh3)2 CO] (1) reacts with (S)-(−)-α-methylbenzylamine to give the diastereomeric amidic derivatives, 2. One of the two possible diastereomers, 2a, has been obtained pure and the absolute configuration at the carbon atom σ-bonded to the metal is inferred from its CD spectrum. Compound 2a has been used to oxidize the chiral racemic phosphine (RS)-PPhCyPr using a molar ratio, PPhCyPr 2a = 2: 1. The reaction products contains an enantiomeric excess of (S)-(−)-OPPhCyPr whereas unreacted PPhCyPr shows the prevalent (S) configuration, indicating that the reaction occurred with asymmetric induction. These findings are rationalized by a mechanism based on the coordination to the metal of PPhCyPr mainly in the (R) configuration, followed by an intramolecular oxidation by the peroxide moiety
Rhodium(III) complexes of (EEE)-1,5,9-cyclododecatriene. Syntheses, structures and absolute configurations of derivatives of catena-poly-[μ-dichloro-(1,2,12-η)-1,5,8 cyclododecatrienylrhodium]
The reaction of RhCl3·3H2O with (EEE)-1,5,9-cyclododecatriene in alcohols gives a red polymeric solid compound with chlorine bridges, 1, in which the hydrocarbon moiety has been reported to be bonded to the metal via an η3-allylic bond. Re-examination of this reaction has led to the isolation of soluble derivatives obtained by breaking the chlorine bridges with chelating diphosphines and diamines. An X-ray analysis on single crystals of a diphosphino and a diamino derivative, indicates that the cyclo-olefin residue with composition C12H17 has undergone isomerization. The two double bonds not involved in the bonding to the metal are 5,8 rather than 5,9

High diagnostic yield of tuberculosis from screening urine samples from HIV-infected patients with advanced immunodeficiency using the Xpert MTB/RIF assay.
: ABSTRACT:: We determined the diagnostic yield of the Xpert MTB/RIF assay for tuberculosis (TB) when testing small volumes of urine from ambulatory HIV-infected patients prior to starting antiretroviral therapy (ART) in South Africa. Compared to a gold standard of sputum culture, the sensitivity of urine Xpert among those with CD4 cell counts of <50, 50-100 and >100 cells/?L were 44.4%, 25.0% and 2.7% (P=0.001), respectively. Urine Xpert testing provides a means of rapid TB diagnosis in patients with advanced immunodeficiency and poor prognosis. These data are indicative of high rates of TB dissemination and renal involvement in this clinical population

Jumping sustainability meme; SD transfer from society to universities
Since the 1972 Stockholm Conference, many Sustainable Development declarations, charters, and partnerships have been developed, both in the overall societal context and within higher education frameworks. This paper addresses two issues: (1) a comparison of the development of sustainable development initiatives in society and in universities and (2) an analysis of how those initiatives are influencing educational institutions? SD activities. The analysis indicates that SD needs to be incorporated in a transdisciplinary manner throughout: curricula, research, operations, outreach and engagement with stakeholders, collaboration with other universities, assessment and reporting, institutional framework, on-campus life experiences, and educate the educators programmes. These key elements must be integrated systemically in the HEIs in order to provide learning and career value to those participating in the SD transition. One of the key observations is that the concept of \u84meme? diffusion/transfer from the diverse declarations, charters and partnerships is slow and inefficient. The question is why is it so slow and ineffective and what can be done to speed it up throughout society? The authors propose the following ways to speed up the transfer, and implementation of the SD in higher education \u84meme?: universities and their leaders should become more proactive in engaging with SD, SD should be made the \u84Golden Thread? throughout the university system, and recognise those engaged with SD and foster multiplier effect
