Comparison of the NMR enantiodifferentiation of a chiral ruthenium(II) complex of C2 symmetry using the TRISPHAT anion and a lanthanide shift reagent

The tris[tetrachlorobenzenediolato]phosphate(v) anion (TRISPHAT) is known to be an efficient NMR chiral shift agent for various chiral cationic species. Here we compare the efficiency of TRISPHAT and of a chiral lanthanide shift reagent for the determination of the enantiomeric purity of the chiral building block [Ru(phen)[2]PY[2]][2][+] which possesses C[2] symmetry. We also discuss our results in terms of the geometry of interaction between the Ru(II) complex and the TRISPHAT anion.

Super-resolution in confocal scanning microscopy: generalized inversion formulae

It was shown in previous papers that the resolution of a confocal scanning microscope can be significantly improved by measuring, for each scanning position, the full diffraction image and by inverting these data to recover the value of the object at the confocal point. In the present work, the authors generalize the data inversion procedure by allowing, for reconstructing the object at a given point, to make use of the data samples recorded at other scanning positions. This leads them to a family of generalized inversion formulae, either exact or approximate. Some previously known formulae are re-derived here as special cases in a particularly simple way.
