Long-range chirality recognition between the two chiral guest ligands can be tuned based on the helix distance (dLn-Ln = 11.5 and 14.0 Å) of bis-diketonate bridged dinuclear lanthanide complexes (2Th...

A novel series of N2O2diazadioxamacrocyclic complexes of type [Ln(mac)Cl3] has been synthesized via the condensation reactions of a 3-(phenyl/substituted phenyl)-4-amino-5-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazoles with salicylaldehyde and 1,4-dibromobutane in the presence of lanthanum(III) chloride and praseodymium(III) chloride in ethanol. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, electronic absorption, IR, 1HNMR. The particle size of the complexes have been calculated from XRD spectral using Debye-Scherrer formula and these are found to be in 29-31 nm range. In order to evaluate the biological activity of Schiff bases and to assess the role of Ln(III) and Pr(III) metal on biological activity, the hydrazine triazole Schiff bases and their lanthanide complexes have been studies for in vitro antifungal activity against Fusariumoxysporum, CurvularialunataandColletotrichumfalcatum.

AbstractWe studied the ovipositional behavior of the citrus blackfly (CBF), Aleurocanthus woglumi Ashby, and found several plant species (mango, pink trumpet, and kumquat) to be as attractive as Citrus spp to ovipositing CBF at low densities. There is a significant (P < 0.01) positive correlation between the attractiveness of various host plants in our tests and the frequency of CBF occurrence on these plants in field surveys The host range of CBF increases with increasing CBF density. Oviposition by CBF on preferred hosts appears to occur at all CBF densities and is independent of their frequency in the environment We also found that CBF adults appear to be attracted to plant material reflecting light in the 500–600 nm range and it appears that this is the only long-range attractant operative.

Heparan sulphate (HS) is an essential co-receptor for a number of growth factors, morphogens and adhesion proteins. The biosynthetic modifications involved in the generation of a mature HS chain may determine the strength and outcome of HS–ligand interactions. These modifications are catalysed by a complex family of enzymes, some of which occur as multiple gene products. Various mutant mice have now been generated, which lack the function of isolated components of the HS biosynthetic pathway. In this discussion, we outline the key findings of these studies, and use them to put into context our own work concerning the structure of the HS generated by the Hs2st-/- mice.
