TL;DR: Pentaborane(9) reacts with [Fe(PMe3)3(η2-CH2PMe2)H] to give [2,3-{FeMe3]2}2(µ-H)B4H9] in yields of up to 1 and 22% respectively; the X-ray crystal structure of (1) shows a nido-pentaborane structure in which a BH3 fragment caps the Fe2B face as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Pentaborane(9) reacts with [Fe(PMe3)3(η2-CH2PMe2)H] to give [2,3-{Fe(PMe3)2}2(µ-H)B4H9](1) and [2-{Fe(PMe3)3}B4H8](2) in yields of up to 1 and 22% respectively; the X-ray crystal structure of (1) shows a nido-pentaborane(9) structure in which a BH3 fragment caps the Fe2B face.

Abstract: The compound [Mo(η-C5H5)2H{MgBr(thf)2}] is described. It reacts with CO2, PhCH2Br, C3H5Br, MeI, and MeCOCl to give [Mo(η-C5H5)2(CO)], [Mo(η-C5H5)2(CH2Ph)2], [Mo(η-C3H5)(η-C5H5)2][PF6], [Mo(η-C5H5)2HI], Mo(η-C5H5)2(COMe)H], and [Mo(η-C5H5)2(COMe)2] respectively. Reaction paths for these products are discussed.

TL;DR: Addition of methanol to W(PMe3)4(η2-CH2PMe2)H gives the η 2-formaldehyde derivative W(Me3),4( η2 -CH2O)H2 which reacts sequentially with dihydrogen forming initially the methoxyhydrido compound W(MMe3,4(OMe)H3 and then W(ME3, 4 )H4 accompanied by the production of MeOH.

TL;DR: In this article, electron-diffraction studies show gaseous TiMeCl3 to have a symmetrically flattened (C3v) methyl group with an H-C-Ti angle of 101.0 ± 2.2°, which is reflected in solution by a most unusual large positive H,H coupling constant of + 11.3 Hz.
Abstract: Electron-diffraction studies show gaseous TiMeCl3 to have a symmetrically ‘flattened’(C3v) methyl group with an H–C–Ti angle of 101.0 ± 2.2°, which is reflected in solution by a most unusual large positive H,H coupling constant of + 11.3 Hz; these data are interpreted in terms of a π-donor interaction of methyl C–H bonds with low-lying metal d-orbitals.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the synthesis of abundant single-shell tubes with diameters of about one nanometre, whereas the multi-shell nanotubes are formed on the carbon cathode.
Abstract: CARBON nanotubes1 are expected to have a wide variety of interesting properties. Capillarity in open tubes has already been demonstrated2–5, while predictions regarding their electronic structure6–8 and mechanical strength9 remain to be tested. To examine the properties of these structures, one needs tubes with well defined morphologies, length, thickness and a number of concentric shells; but the normal carbon-arc synthesis10,11 yields a range of tube types. In particular, most calculations have been concerned with single-shell tubes, whereas the carbon-arc synthesis produces almost entirely multi-shell tubes. Here we report the synthesis of abundant single-shell tubes with diameters of about one nanometre. Whereas the multi-shell nanotubes are formed on the carbon cathode, these single-shell tubes grow in the gas phase. Electron diffraction from a single tube allows us to confirm the helical arrangement of carbon hexagons deduced previously for multi-shell tubes1.

TL;DR: Although not yet providing compelling mechanical strength or electrical or thermal conductivities for many applications, CNT yarns and sheets already have promising performance for applications including supercapacitors, actuators, and lightweight electromagnetic shields.
Abstract: Worldwide commercial interest in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is reflected in a production capacity that presently exceeds several thousand tons per year. Currently, bulk CNT powders are incorporated in diverse commercial products ranging from rechargeable batteries, automotive parts, and sporting goods to boat hulls and water filters. Advances in CNT synthesis, purification, and chemical modification are enabling integration of CNTs in thin-film electronics and large-area coatings. Although not yet providing compelling mechanical strength or electrical or thermal conductivities for many applications, CNT yarns and sheets already have promising performance for applications including supercapacitors, actuators, and lightweight electromagnetic shields.

TL;DR: The features of nanoparticle therapeutics that distinguish them from previous anticancer therapies are highlighted, and how these features provide the potential for therapeutic effects that are not achievable with other modalities are described.
Abstract: Nanoparticles — particles in the size range 1–100 nm — are emerging as a class of therapeutics for cancer. Early clinical results suggest that nanoparticle therapeutics can
show enhanced efficacy, while simultaneously reducing side effects, owing to properties such as more targeted localization in tumours and active cellular uptake. Here, we
highlight the features of nanoparticle therapeutics that distinguish them from previous anticancer therapies, and describe how these features provide the potential for
therapeutic effects that are not achievable with other modalities. While large numbers of preclinical studies have been published, the emphasis here is placed on preclinical and clinical studies that are likely to affect clinical investigations and their implications for advancing the treatment of patients with cancer.
