Síntese e caracterização de cloro[ácido 2-(difenilfosfino)benzóico]-ouro(I) e alguns de seus derivados

In this contribution a few new gold(I)phosphine complexes, [2-(PPh2)C6H4CO 2H]AuX (where X = Cl, SCN, Br3) and a similar gold(III) derivative [{2-(PPh2)C6H4CO 2H}AuIII Cl (C6H4CH2NMe2 )]Cl have been synthesised and characterised. The phosphine, 2-(diphenylphosphino)benzoic acid, has been employed for the first time in gold chemistry. This ligand is potentially bidentate through bonding of the phosphine and carboxylate groups. The X-ray structure of the complex chloro[2-(diphenylphosphino) benzoic acid]gold(I) has been elucidated and the bond lengths encountered show great similarity to those of chloro(triphenylphosphine)gold(I). [2-(PPh2)C6H4CO 2H]AuCl crystallises in the space group P2(1)/c with a = 9.113(2) Å, b = 10.925(2) Å, c = 23.069(4) Å, beta = 99.95º(3), V = 2299 ų, Z = 4 and R = 0.091. Biological tests for anti-fungal and anti-bacterial activity demostrate that [2-(PPh2)C6H4CO 2H]AuCl exhibits broad spectrum activity against a range of organisms.

História da química e da geologia: Joseph Black e James Hutton como referências para educação em ciências

The second half of eighteenth century is marked by the advancement of chemistry and geology. The first science acquired the law of conservation of mass and this science represented a important support to geology and mineralogy. We say that both became modern science that time. Our aim is to show up some interrelations between history of chemistry and history of geology by means of the study of Joseph Black's and James Hutton's works. We defend that it is positive to science education to understand and approach the relations among different and disciplinary areas of science.

Richard Rorty i una aproximació pragmatista al liberalisme polític de John Rawls

Aquest article es proposa explorar la possibilitat d'apropar a la concepció del liberalisme polític metafilosòfic de John Rawls des del punt de vista pragmatista de Richard Rorty. La proposta està motivada per les similituds que es poden observar entre elles respecte de la finalitat i la sortida d'una concepció política. El resultat final de l'article és ambigua: d'una banda, no sembla tan descabellat afirmar que la teoria de Rawls es pot llegir sense més dificultats des d'una perspectiva pragmàtica, d'altra banda, hi ha alguns aspectes importants en els quals un liberalisme polític de Rawls segueix sent incompatible amb una concepció política de Rorty

Dell'arcano del mare / Robert Dudley (junior) Earl of Warwick and Leicester, Duke of Northumberland

Sir Robert Dudleyn arvokas karttateos Dell´Arcano del Mare, osat I-III, on varhaisin koko maapallon kattava merikartasto. Se on myös ensimmäinen merikartasto, joka on laadittu Mercatorin projektion mukaan. Kartastoon on koottu yhteen kaikki silloinen tietämys merenkulusta. Se sisältää merenkulun ja navigoinnin teoriaa, laivanrakennusta ja astronomiaa käsittelevät tekstiosuudet, 145 merikarttaa sekä 180 kuvaliitettä, joiden tekijänä on tunnettu kaivertaja Antonio Francesco Lucini. Kaiverrukset, joiden tekemiseen Lucini oli käyttänyt 12 vuotta, ovat poikkeuksellisen hienolaatuisia, kuten teoksen muukin painotyö. Dudleyn kartasto kuuluu Kansalliskirjaston A. E. Nordenskiöldin karttojen ja kartografisen kirjallisuuden kokoelmaan, joka on liitetty ainoana suomalaisena kohteena Unescon Memory of the World –rekisteriin.
