RESUMO
The development of new, more efficient Friedel-Crafts benzylation methodologies that provide access to 1,1-diarylalkanes is an important objective of interest for the production of pharmaceuticals and fine chemical products. In this regard, this study introduces a novel synthetic route to 1,1-diarylalkanes conducted in the Deep Eutectic Solvent (DES) 3FeCl3 · 6H2O/Gly, which serves as both a reaction medium and promoter. Under these conditions, Friedel-Crafts benzylations of various arenes bearing activating and deactivating ortho-/para-directing groups, can be performed using diverse benzylating reagents such as styrenes, alcohols, acetates, ethers, and chlorides. Importantly, highly electronically deactivated electrophiles, including those with CF3 and NO2 groups, are suitable substrates. This methodology provides a wide range of asymmetric 1,1-diarylalkanes (up to 132 examples) with generally good yields and high regioselectivities. The efficiency of this approach was demonstrated with the multigram-scale synthesis (10 mmol) of 1-phenyl-1-xylyl ethane (PXE), a liquid with great industrial applicability. Moreover, the Fe(III)-based DES could be reused for 20 consecutive cycles with no appreciable erosion of the yields.
RESUMO
A straightforward and selective conversion of nitriles into highly substituted tetrahydropyridines, aminoketones or enamines by using allylmagnesium bromide as an addition partner (under neat conditions) and subsequent treatment with different aqueous-based hydrolysis protocols is reported. Refuting the conventional wisdom of the incompatibility of Grignard reagents with air and moisture, we herein report that the presence of water allows us to promote the chemoselective formation of the target tetrahydropyridines over other competing products (even in the case of highly challenging aliphatic nitriles). Moreover, the careful tuning of both the reaction media employed (acid or basic aqueous solutions for the hydrolysis protocol) and the electronic properties of the starting nitriles allowed us to design a multi-task system capable of producing either ß-aminoketones or enamines in a totally selective manner. Importantly, and for the first time in the chemistry of main-group polar organometallic reagents in non-conventional protic solvents (e.g., water), both experimental and computational studies showed that the excellent efficiency and selectivity observed in aqueous media cannot be replicated by using standard dry volatile organic solvents (VOCs) under inert atmosphere conditions.
RESUMO
This mini-review offers a comprehensive overview of the advancements made over the last three years in utilizing highly polar s-block organometallic reagents (specifically, RLi, RNa and RMgX compounds) in organic synthesis run under bench-type reaction conditions. These conditions involve exposure to air/moisture and are carried out at room temperature, with the use of sustainable solvents as reaction media. In the examples provided, the adoption of Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) or even water as non-conventional and protic reaction media has not only replicated the traditional chemistry of these organometallic reagents in conventional and toxic volatile organic compounds under Schlenk-type reaction conditions (typically involving low temperatures of -78 °C to 0 °C and a protective atmosphere of N2 or Ar), but has also resulted in higher conversions and selectivities within remarkably short reaction times (measured in s/min). Furthermore, the application of the aforementioned polar organometallics under bench-type reaction conditions (at room temperature/under air) has been extended to other environmentally responsible reaction media, such as more sustainable ethereal solvents (e.g., CPME or 2-MeTHF). Notably, this innovative approach contributes to enhancing the overall sustainability of s-block-metal-mediated organic processes, thereby aligning with several key principles of Green Chemistry.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The association between socioeconomic status and depression is weaker in older adults than in younger populations. Loneliness may play a significant role in this relationship, explaining (at least partially) the attenuation of the social gradient in depression. The current study examined the relationship between socioeconomic status and depression and whether the association was affected by loneliness. METHODS: A cross-sectional design involving dwelling and nursing homes residents was used. A total of 887 Spanish residents aged over 64 years took part in the study. Measures of Depression (GDS-5 Scale), Loneliness (De Jong-Gierveld Loneliness Scale), Socioeconomic Status (Education and Economic Hardship), and sociodemographic parameters were used. The study employed bivariate association tests (chi-square and Pearson's r) and logistic regression analyses. RESULTS: The percentage of participants at risk of suffering depression was significantly higher among those who had not completed primary education (45.5%) and significantly lower among those with university qualifications (16.4%) (X2 = 40.25;p <.001), and respondents who could not make ends meet in financial terms faced a higher risk of depression (X2 = 23.62;p <.001). In terms of the respondents who experienced loneliness, 57.5% were at risk of depression, compared to 19% of those who did not report loneliness (X2 = 120.04;p <.001). The logistic regression analyses showed that having university qualifications meant a 47% reduction in the risk of depression. This risk was 86% higher among respondents experiencing financial difficulties. However, when scores for the loneliness measure were incorporated, the coefficients relating to education and economic hardships ceased to be significant or were significantly reduced. CONCLUSION: Loneliness can contribute to explaining the role played by socioeconomic inequalities in depression among older adults.

Invited for the cover of this issue is the group of Vicente del Amo, Alejandro Presa Soto and Joaquín García-Álvarez (QuimSinSos Group) at the University of Oviedo. The image depicts the use of the FeIII -based deep eutectic mixture [FeCl3 â 6 H2 O/Gly (3:1)] (Gly = glycerol) as both promoter and solvent for the straightforward and selective hydration of alkynes, working under mild (45 °C), bench-type reaction conditions (air) and in the absence of ligands, co-catalysts or co-solvents.

RESUMO
An efficient, simple and general protocol for the selective hydration of terminal alkynes into the corresponding methyl ketones has been developed by using a cheap, easy-to-synthesise and sustainable FeIII -based eutectic mixture [FeCl3 â 6H2 O/Gly (3 : 1)] as both promoter and solvent for the hydration reaction, working: i)â under mild (45 °C) and bench-type reaction conditions (air); and ii)â in the absence of ligands, co-catalysts, co-solvents or toxic, non-abundant and expensive noble transition metals (Au, Ru, Pd). When the final methyl ketones are solid/insoluble in the eutectic mixture, the hydration reaction takes place in 30â min, and the obtained methyl ketones can be isolated by simply decanting the liquid FeIII -DES, allowing the direct isolation of the desired ketones without VOC solvents. By using this straightforward and simple isolation protocol, we have been able to recycle the FeIII -based eutectic mixture system up to eight consecutive times. Furthermore, the FeIII -eutectic mixture is able to promote the selective and efficient formal oxidation of internal alkynes into 1,2-diketones, with the possibility of recycling this system up to three consecutive times. Preliminary investigations into a possible mechanism for the oxidation of the internal alkynes seem to indicate that it proceeds through the formation of the corresponding methyl ketones and α-chloroketones.
RESUMO
The highly efficient biodeoximation of aromatic ketoximes, promoted by the enzymatic oxidative system laccase/TEMPO/O2, has been successfully assembled with the fast and chemoselective addition of highly-polar s-block organometallic reagents (RLi/RMgX) en route to highly-substituted tertiary alcohols. By using this hybrid one-pot tandem protocol, tertiary alcohols have been selectively synthesized in good yields and under mild and bench-type reaction conditions (room temperature, the absence of a protecting atmosphere and aqueous media, which are non-typical conditions for polar organometallic reagents). The overall hybrid one-pot tandem transformation amalgamates two distant organic synthetic tools (RLi/RMgX reagents and enzymes) without the need for any tedious and energy/time-consuming intermediate isolation/purification steps.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of a multimodal interventional project ("Zero Resistance") on the acquisition of multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR-B) during the patient's ICU stay. DESIGN: Prospective, open-label, interventional, multicenter study. SETTING: 103 ICUs. PATIENTS: Critically ill patients admitted to the ICUs over a 27-month period. INTERVENTIONS: Implementation of a bundle of 10 recommendations to prevent emergence and spread of MDR-B in the ICU. MAIN VARIABLE OF INTEREST: Rate of patients acquiring MDR-B during their ICU stay, with differentiation between colonization and infection. RESULTS: A total of 139,505 patients were included. In 5409 (3.9%) patients, 6020 MDR-B on ICU admission were identified, and in 3648 (2.6%) patients, 4269 new MDR-B during ICU stay were isolated. The rate of patients with MDR-B detected on admission increased significantly (IRR 1.43, 95% CI 1.31-1.56) (p<0.001) during the study period, with an increase of 32.2% between the initial and final monthly rates. On the contrary, the rate of patients with MDR-B during ICU stay decreased non-significantly (IRR 0.93, 95% CI 0.83-1.03) (p=0.174), with a 24.9% decrease between initial and final monthly rates. According to the classification into colonization or infection, there was a highly significant increase of MDR-B colonizations detected on admission (IRR 1.69, 95% CI 1.52-1.83; p<0.0001) and a very significant decrease of MDR-B-infections during ICU stay (IRR 0.67, 95% CI 0.57-0.80, p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: The implementation of ZR project-recommendations was associated with a significantly reduction an infection produced by MDR-B acquired during the patient's ICU stay.

BACKGROUND: Less invasive monitoring, such as radial arterial pulse contour analysis (ProAQT® sensor), represents an alternative when hemodynamic monitoring is necessary to guide postoperative management and invasive monitoring is not technically feasible. The aim of the study is to evaluate the accuracy of the ProAQT® sensor cardiac output measurements in comparison with Pulmonary Artery Catheter (PAC) during the postoperative course of patients who underwent cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. CASE PRESENTATION: Prospective observational study in a Surgical Intensive Care Unit of a tertiary university hospital. Ten patients with a mean age of 73.5 years were included. The main comorbidities were hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and the preoperative left ejection fraction was 43.8 ± 14.5%. Regarding the type of surgery, six patients underwent valve surgery, two underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and two underwent aortic surgery. The cardiac index measured simultaneously by the ProAQT® sensor was compared with the PAC. The parameters were evaluated at predefined time points during the early postoperative courses (6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h). The degree of agreement with the cardiac index between the PAC and the ProAQT® sensor along the time points was measured using the concordance correlation coefficient, Bland-Altman analysis, and four-quadrant plot. Sixty-three pairs of measurements were analyzed. We showed that measurements of cardiac index were slightly higher with PAC (ß Ì = - 0.146, p-value = 0.094). The concordance correlation coefficient for the additive model of cardiac index was 0.64 (95% Confidence Interval: 0.36, 0.82), indicating a high concordance between both sensors. Bland-Altmann analysis showed a mean bias of 0.45 L·min-1·m-2, limits of agreement from - 1.65 to 2.3 L·min-1·m-2, and percentage of error was 82.5%. Four-quadrant plot of changes in cardiac index showed a good concordance rate (75%), which increases after applying the exclusion zone (87%). CONCLUSIONS: In patients undergoing cardiac surgery, the ProAQT® sensor may be useful to monitor cardiac index during the postoperative period, especially when more invasive monitoring is not possible.

Dimethindene is a selective histamine H1 antagonist and is commercially available as a racemate. Upon analyzing the synthetic pathways currently available for the industrial preparation of dimethindene, we set up a sustainable approach for the synthesis of this drug, switching from petroleum-based volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to eco-friendly solvents, such as 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF) and cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME) belonging to classes 3 and 2, respectively. Beyond decreasing the environmental impact of the synthesis (E-factor: 24.1-54.9 with VOCs; 12.2-22.1 with 2-MeTHF or CPME), this switch also improved the overall yield of the process (from 10% with VOCs to 21-22% with 2-MeTHF or CPME) and remarkably simplified the manual operations, working under milder conditions. Typical metrics applied at the first and second pass, according to the CHEM21 metrics toolkit, were also calculated for the whole synthetic procedure of dimethindene, and the results were compared with those of the classical procedure.

An efficient, selective and sustainable protocol was developed for the CuCl2 /TEMPO/TMEDA-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of activated alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds using water or the environmentally friendly low melting mixture (LMM) d-fructose-urea as the reaction medium. Such oxidation reactions proceed under mild (room temperature or 40 °C) and aerobic conditions, with the carbonyl derivatives isolated in up to 98 % yield and within 4â h reaction time when using the above-mentioned LMM. The potential application of this methodology is demonstrated by setting up useful telescoped, one-pot two-step hybrid transformations for the direct conversion of primary alcohols either into secondary alcohols or into valuable nitroalkenes, by combining oxidation processes with nucleophilic additions promoted by highly polarized organometallic compounds (Grignard and organolithium reagents) or with nitroaldol (Henry) reactions, respectively.

Teaching is one of the most stressful work contexts, psychologically affecting professionals. The objective of this study is to analyse the effect of the frustration of NPB basic psychological needs, resilience, emotional intelligence and inclusion from the perspective of teachers in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study is carried out with 542 teachers of therapeutic pedagogy and special educational needs using the Psychological Need Thwarting Scale PNTS questionnaires as a research method, the Resilience Scale (RS-14), the Trait Meta Mood Scale 24 (TMMS-24), the Maslach Burnout Inventory, and the Index for Inclusion. The results revealed positive correlations, on the one hand, between the factors of frustration among themselves and with burnout and, on the other hand, the positive correlation between emotional intelligence, resilience and the inclusion index. In conclusion, the resilience of teachers plays a protective role in the inclusion of students with SEN in the face of emotional exhaustion and the frustration of psychological needs.
RESUMO
Highly-efficient and selective one-pot/two-step modular double addition of different highly polar organometallic reagents (RLi/RMgX) to nitriles en route to asymmetric tertiary alcohols (without the need for isolation/purification of any halfway reaction intermediate) has been studied, for the first time, in the absence of external/additional organic solvents (neat conditions), at room temperature and under air/moisture (no protecting atmosphere is required), which are generally forbidden reaction conditions in the field of highly-reactive organolithium/organomagnesium reagents. The one-pot modular tandem protocol demonstrated high chemoselectivity with a broad range of nitriles, as no side reactions (Li/halogen exchange, ortho-lithiations or benzylic metalations) were detected. Finally, this protocol could be scaled up, thus proving that this environmentally friendly methodology is amenable for a possible applied synthesis of asymmetric tertiary alcohols under bench type reaction conditions and in the absence of external organic solvents.

INTRODUCTION: Treatment of breast abscesses is based on drainage and antibiotic therapy directed at the bacteria causing the infection. The aim of this study was to know the etiological agents of breast abscesses. METHODS: Patients who had a culture-positive breast abscess between September 2015 and January 2020 were included in the study. Culture results were consulted in the laboratory database. It was collected from medical records if the patients presented the following risk factors: breastfeeding, diabetes or smoking. Abscesses secondary to surgical wound infection were excluded. RESULTS: Sixty patients were included, 58 women and 2 men. Staphylococcus aureus was the most frequent agent in lactating women. Anaerobic bacteria were isolated in 28 (61%) of 46 abscesses in non-lactating patients. In non-lactating patients, the frequency of anaerobes in abscesses was lower in diabetics than in the rest (0/5 vs 26/38; P = .013). In non-lactating and non-diabetic patients, the proportion of abscesses with anaerobes was higher in smokers than in non-smokers (21/24 vs 5/14; P = .003). Aerobic gram-positive cocci were the most frequent agents in diabetics. CONCLUSION: Anaerobes were the most frequent agents, followed by S. aureus. The etiology of breast abscesses varied with the risk factors studied.

A family of germyl rhodium complexes derived from the PGeP germylene 2,2'-bis(di-isopropylphosphanylmethyl)-5,5'-dimethyldipyrromethane-1,1'-diylgermanium(II), Ge(pyrmPi Pr2 )2 CMe2 (1), has been prepared. Germylene 1 reacted readily with [RhCl(PPh3 )3 ] and [RhCl(cod)(PPh3 )] (cod=1,5-cyclooctadiene) to give, in both cases, the PGeP-pincer chloridogermyl rhodium(I) derivative [Rh{κ3 P,Ge,P-GeCl(pyrmPi Pr2 )2 CMe2 }(PPh3 )] (2). Similarly, the reaction of 1 with [RhCl(cod)(MeCN)] afforded [Rh{κ3 P,Ge,P-GeCl(pyrmPi Pr2 )2 CMe2 }(MeCN)] (3). The methoxidogermyl and methylgermyl rhodium(I) complexes [Rh{κ3 P,Ge,P-GeR(pyrmPi Pr2 )2 CMe2 }(PPh3 )] (R=OMe, 4; Me, 5) were prepared by treating complex 2 with LiOMe and LiMe, respectively. Complex 5 readily reacted with CO to give the carbonyl rhodium(I) derivative [Rh{κ3 P,Ge,P-GeR(pyrmPi Pr2 )2 CMe2 }(CO)] (6), with HCl, HSnPh3 and Ph2 S2 rendering the pentacoordinate methylgermyl rhodium(III) complexes [RhHX{κ3 P,Ge,P-GeMe(pyrmPi Pr2 )2 CMe2 }] (X=Cl, 7; SnPh3 , 8) and [Rh(SPh)2 {κ3 P,Ge,P-GeMe(pyrmPi Pr2 )2 CMe2 }] (9), respectively, and with H2 to give the hexacoordinate derivative [RhH2 {κ3 P,Ge,P-GeMe(pyrmPi Pr2 )2 CMe2 }(PPh3 )] (10). Complexes 3 and 5 are catalyst precursors for the hydroboration of styrene, 4-vinyltoluene and 4-vinylfluorobenzene with catecholborane under mild conditions.
RESUMO
An efficient and novel protocol was developed for a Cu-catalyzed Ullmann-type aryl alkyl ether synthesis by reacting various (hetero)aryl halides (Cl, Br, I) with alcohols as active components of environmentally benign choline chloride-based eutectic mixtures. Under optimized conditions, the reaction proceeded under mild conditions (80 °C) in air, in the absence of additional ligands, with a catalyst [CuI or CuII species] loading up to 5â mol% and K2 CO3 as the base, providing the desired aryloxy derivatives in up to 98 % yield. The potential application of the methodology was demonstrated in the valorization of cheap, easily available, and naturally occurring polyols (e. g., glycerol) for the synthesis of some pharmacologically active aryloxypropanediols (Guaiphenesin, Mephenesin, and Chlorphenesin) on a 2â g scale in 70-96 % yield. Catalyst, base, and deep eutectic solvent could easily and successfully be recycled up to seven times with an E-factor as low as 5.76.

The one-pot/two-step combination of enzymes and polar organometallic chemistry in aqueous media is for the first time presented as a proof-of-concept study. The unprecedented combination of the catalytic oxidation of secondary alcohols by the system laccase/TEMPO with the ultrafast addition (3 s reaction time) of polar organometallic reagents (RLi/RMgX) to the in situ formed ketones, run under air at room temperature, allows the straightforward and chemoselective synthesis of tertiary alcohols with broad substrate scope and excellent conversions (up to 96%).
RESUMO
Fast addition of highly polar organometallic reagents (RMgX/RLi) to cyclic carbonates (derived from CO2 as a sustainable C1 synthon) has been studied in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran as a green reaction medium or in the absence of external volatile organic solvents, at room temperature, and in the presence of air/moisture. These reaction conditions are generally forbidden with these highly reactive main-group organometallic compounds. The correct stoichiometry and nature of the polar organometallic alkylating or arylating reagent allows straightforward synthesis of: highly substituted tertiary alcohols, ß-hydroxy esters, or symmetric ketones, working always under air and at room temperature. Finally, an unprecedented one-pot/two-step hybrid protocol is developed through combination of an Al-catalyzed cycloaddition of CO2 and propylene oxide with the concomitant fast addition of RLi reagents to the inâ situ and transiently formed cyclic carbonate, thus allowing indirect conversion of CO2 into the desired highly substituted tertiary alcohols without need for isolation or purification of any reaction intermediates.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Despite the unquestionable progress in the treatment and legal and social recognition of persons with disabilities with modified capacity,the role and social position of the collective still hinders the development of a full life. The objective was to know the possible effect of the guardianship exercise on the quality of life of persons with disabilities who reside permanently in residential centres and whose ordinary guardianship falls to the public FASAD Foundation. METHODS: Correlational quantitative study. The GENCAT quality of life scale adapted so that the population under study itself was in charge of assessing the areas and dimensions related to their bio-psycho-social well-being. The starting hypothesis is was that exists a better perception of the levels of quality of life with a longer time of guardianship protection. In addition, the research questions were, What effects does the tutelary protection exercised by the FASAD Foundation have on the perception of the quality of life of the interviewed subjects? How do the variables (sex, place of residence and time of guardianship) affect the perception of quality of life? What dimensions present in the quality of life analysis are most affected by the variable time of guardianship? For the analysis of the statistical data, was used the SPSS® Statistics 22.0, a descriptive and bivariate exploration was carried out that showed the level of association and correlation between the variables studied. RESULTS: People under guardianship for a period of more than 3 years present better results in all the dimensions studied -except for rights- regardless of their sex or place of residence. Women under guardianship for a period less than 3 years obtained a general percentile of quality of life of 13.6, while those who were under guardianship for a period greater than 3 years obtained 18.9, in the same way it happened with men (14.1 vs 20.7) The ANOVA statistic and the Pearson correlation table confirm the association and relationship between the variable time of care and the general percentiles of quality of life. CONCLUSIONS: The exercise of guardianship has a positive effect on all the dimensions that integrate the quality of life construct. In addition, knowing the self-perception of the quality of life of the people under guardianship favors knowing the true impact of a support and promotion mechanism such as guardianship.
OBJETIVO: Pese al incuestionable avance en el tratamiento y reconocimiento jurídico y social de las personas con discapacidad con la capacidad modificada, el rol y la posición social que ocupa el colectivo aún sigue dificultando el desarrollo de una vida plena. El objetivo fue conocer el posible efecto del ejercicio tutelar sobre la calidad de vida en personas con discapacidad que residen de forma permanente en centros residenciales y cuya tutela ordinaria recae sobre la Fundación de carácter público FASAD. METODOS: Estudio de carácter cuantitativo de tipo correlacional. Se adaptó la escala de calidad de vida GENCAT para que fuese la propia población objeto de estudio la encargada de valorar las áreas y dimensiones relacionadas con su bienestar bio-psico-social. La hipótesis de partida fue que existe una mejor percepción sobre los niveles de calidad de vida a mayor tiempo de protección tutelar. Además, las preguntas de investigación fueron, ¿Qué efectos tiene la protección tutelar ejercida por la Fundación FASAD en la percepción de la calidad de vida de los sujetos entrevistados? ¿Cómo afectan las variables (sexo, lugar de residencia y tiempo de tutela) en la percepción de la calidad de vida? ¿Qué dimensiones presentes en el análisis de la calidad de vida se ven más afectadas por la variable tiempo de tutela? Para el análisis de los datos estadísticos se utilizó el SPSS® Stadistics 22.0, se efectuó una exploración descriptiva y bivariada que mostró el nivel de asociación y correlación entre las variables estudiadas. RESULTADOS: Las personas tuteladas por un período superior a 3 años presentan mejores resultados en todas las dimensiones estudiadas -excepto en derechos- independientemente de su sexo o lugar de residencia. Las mujeres tuteladas por un periodo inferior a 3 años obtuvieron un percentil general de calidad de vida de 13,6, mientras que las que se encontraban tuteladas por un periodo superior a 3 años obtuvieron un 18,9, de la misma forma ocurrió con los hombres (14,1 frente al 20,7). El estadístico ANOVA y la tabla de correlaciones de Pearson refrendan la asociación y relación existente entre la variable tiempo de tutela y los percentiles generales de calidad de vida. CONCLUSIONES: El ejercicio de la tutela tiene un efecto positivo en todas las dimensiones que integran el constructo calidad de vida. Además, conocer la autopercepción sobre la calidad de vida de las propias personas tuteladas favorece conocer el verdadero impacto de un mecanismo de apoyo y promoción cómo es la tutela.
