A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Morphological Control of Aurophilic Chains of Gold(I) Dithiolate Dimers With Alkali and Alkali Earth Cations

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Luminescent coordination polymers of Group 1 (Li, K, Cs) and 2 (Mg─Ba) cations with gold(I) iso‐maleonitriledithiolate ({Au2[S2C = C(CN)2]}2−) units were prepared; 1‐D aurophilic chains are present in all cases. The structures strongly depend on cation charge and size, with N‐cyano coordination observed in the Gp 1 and larger Gp 2 cations. Increasingly

Influence of Carboxylate Ligand Variation on Structure, Magnetic Exchange, and Magnetocaloric Performance in Hexanuclear Gd(III) Complexes

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hexanuclear cyclic Gd(III) coordination compounds are promising candidates for magnetic and magnetocaloric applications, yet systematic series remain rare due to synthetic challenges. We report the synthesis and characterization of five new complexes with the general formula [Gd(H3bt)(carboxylate)]6, employing four different carboxylate ...
