Our work on single molecule magnets and multifunctional magnetic materials is presented in four projects. In the first project we show for first time that heteroatomic-type pseudohalides, such as OCN-, can be employed as structure-directing ligands and ferromagnetic couplers in higher oxidation state metal cluster chemistry. The initial use of cyanato groups in Mn cluster chemistry has afforded structurally interesting MnII/III14 (1) and MnII/III/IV16 (2) clusters in which the end-on bridging cyanates show a preference in binding through their O-atom. The Mn14 compound shows entirely visible out-of-phase alternating currect signals below 5 K and large hysteresis loops below 2 K. Furthermore, the amalgamation of azido groups with the triethanolamine tripodal ligand in manganese carboxylate cluster chemistry has led to the isolation of a new ferromagnetic, high-nuclearity and mixed-valence MnII/III15Na2 (3) cluster with a large ground-state spin value of S = 14. In the second project we demonstrate a new synthetic route to purely inorganic-bridged, transition metal-azido clusters [CoII7 (4) and NiII7 (5)] and coordination polymers [{FeII/III2}n (6)] which exhibit strong ferromagnetic, SMM and long-range magnetic ordering behaviors. We also show that access to such a unique ferromagnetic class of inorganic, N-rich and O-free materials is feasible through the use of Me3SiN3 as the azido-ligand precursor without requiring the addition of any organic chelating/bridging ligand. In the last projects we have tried to bring together molecular magnetism and optics via the synthesis of multifunctional magnetic materials based on 3d- or 4f-metal ions. We decided to approach such challenge from two different directions: firstly, in our third project, by the deliberate replacement of non-emissive carboxylato ligands in known 3d-SMMs with their fluorescent analogues, without perturbing the metal-core structure and SMM properties (complexes 7, 8, and 9). The second route (last project) involves the use of naphthalene or pyridine-based polyalcohol bridging ligands for the synthesis of new polynuclear LnIII metal clusters (Ln = lanthanide) with novel topologies, SMM behaviors and luminescent properties arising from the increased efficiency of the “antenna” organic group. This approach has led us to the isolation of two new families of LnIII8 (complexes 10-13) and LnIII4 (complexes 14-20) clusters.

This paper exploits the term structure of interest rates to develop testable economic restrictions on the joint process of long-term interest rates and inflation when the latter is subject to a targeting policy by the Central Bank. Two competing models that econometrically describe agents’ inferences about inflation targets are developed and shown to generate distinct predictions on the behavior of interest rates. In an empirical application to the Canadian inflation target zone, results indicate that agents perceive the band to be substantially narrower than officially announced and asymmetric around the stated mid-point. The latter result (i) suggests that the monetary authority attaches different weights to positive and negative deviations from the central target, and (ii) challenges on empirical grounds the assumption, frequently made in the literature, that the policy maker’s loss function is symmetric (usually a quadratic function) around a desired inflation value.

This paper studies the proposition that an inflation bias can arise in a setup where a central banker with asymmetric preferences targets the natural unemployment rate. Preferences are asymmetric in the sense that positive unemployment deviations from the natural rate are weighted more (or less) severely than negative deviations in the central banker's loss function. The bias is proportional to the conditional variance of unemployment. The time-series predictions of the model are evaluated using data from G7 countries. Econometric estimates support the prediction that the conditional variance of unemployment and the rate of inflation are positively related.

Les Wnts représentent une famille de glycoprotéines de signalisation qui sont connues pour les nombreux rôles qu'ils jouent durant le développement embryonnaire et dans la cancerogénèse. Plusieurs Wnts, leurs récepteurs (Fzd) et d'autres composants des voies de signalisation des Wnt sont exprimés dans l’ovaire postnatal, et il a été démontré que l’expression de certains de ces gènes est régulée pendant le développement et l'ovulation/luteinization folliculaires. Toutefois, leurs rôles physiologiques dans l’ovaire demeurent mal définis. Pour étudier le rôle de WNT4 dans le développement folliculaire, nous avons entrepris d’identifier ses cibles transcriptionnels dans les cellules de la granulosa. Pour ce faire, nous avons employé la souris Catnbflox(ex3)/flox(ex3), chez laquelle une activation constitutive de la voie de Wnt/β-catenin a lieu suite à l’action de la recombinare Cre. Des cellules de la granulosa de ces souris ont été mises en culture et infectées avec un adenovirus pour causer la surexpression de WNT4 ou l’expression de Cre. L’ARN a alors été extrait de ces cellules et analysé par micro-puce. Les résultats ont démontré qu’une forte proportion des gènes induits par WNT4 étaient des gènes impliqués dans la réponse cellulaire au stress. Presque tous gènes induits par WNT4 ont également été induits par Cre, indiquant que WNT4 signale via la voie Wnt/β-catenin dans ces cellules. Nos résultats suggèrent donc que WNT4 favorise la survie des follicules par l’induction de gènes de réponse au stress dans les cellules de la granulosa, augmentant ainsi la résistance cellulaire à l'apoptose.
