Continuity in the Development of Judicial Law

The ongoing changes in the legal map of the world reflect the interaction of legal systems. These processes inevitably affect the scope of activities of the judicial authorities associated with such a phenomenon as judicial law. The authors of the article take a narrow approach to understanding it. It implies the manifestation of judicial law as judicial practice and judicial precedents. The relevance of the topic is due to the fact that the phenomenon of judicial law goes beyond the limits of a single legal family, which implies its comparative legal research. At the same time, an important direction of such activity is the study of the development of this law associated with the processes of continuity. The objective of the study is to identify the concept and features of continuity in the development of judicial law. To do this, the authors formulated the following tasks: identify the concept and signs of continuity within the framework of legal development; disclose the peculiarities of understanding judicial law; determine the characteristic features of continuity in the development of judicial precedents; characterize continuity in the evolution of judicial practice. The conducted research is based on a dialectically understood model of continuity. This assumes the use of a systemic paradigm associated with a constellation of different methods, such as comparative, structural-functional, etc. The results allowed the authors to determine the trends and prospects for the development of judicial law within the framework of certain legal spaces. The authors of the article believe it advisable to use these results in subsequent research on this topic

Condensation of 4-hydroxy-2-thiazolines with 1,2-phenylenediamine as a novel effective route to thiazolo[3,4-a]quinoxalines

Thiazolo[3,4-a]quinoxalin-4-ones were prepared in two steps starting from methyl phenylchloropyruvate using a new strategy for the construction of the ring system. A key step in this new method involves the reaction of 4-hydroxytetrahydrothiazoles with 1,2-phenylendiamines

Phosphineoxide-Chelated Europium(III) Nanoparticles for Ceftriaxone Detection

The present work demonstrates the optimization of the ligand structure in the series of bis(phosphine oxide) and β-ketophosphine oxide representatives for efficient coordination of Tb3+ and Eu3+ ions with the formation of the complexes exhibiting high Tb3+- and Eu3+-centered luminescence. The analysis of the stoichiometry and structure of the lanthanide complexes obtained using the XRD method reveals the great impact of the bridging group nature between two phosphine oxide moieties on the coordination mode of the ligands with Tb3+ and Eu3+ ions. The bridging imido-group facilitates the deprotonation of the imido- bis(phosphine oxide) ligand followed by the formation of tris-complexes. The spectral and PXRD analysis of the separated colloids indicates that the high stability of the tris-complexes provides their safe conversion into polystyrenesulfonate-stabilized colloids using the solvent exchange method. The red Eu3+-centered luminescence of the tris-complex exhibits the same specificity in the solutions and the colloids. The pronounced luminescent response on the antibiotic ceftriaxone allows for sensing the latter in aqueous solutions with an LOD value equal to 0.974 μM

3-(2-Chloro-5-methylphenoxy)propane-1,2-diol

3-(2-Chloro-5-methylphenoxy)propane-1,2-diol 1 is a possible precursor in the chiral beta blocker Bupranolol synthesis. Both racemic and single-enantiomeric samples of 1 were synthesized and characterized by single crystal XRD. The absolute configuration of an (S)-1 sample was determined by data refinement (the value of the Flack parameter is 0.03(4)). Hydrogen-bonded supramolecular synthons (SMS) were identified for both crystals. In rac-1, as well as in (S)-1 crystals, one of the two main SMS is the homochiral chain C11(5):21 (⋯O1–C1–C2–O2–H2⋯). The second of the two SMSs changes is the change of chiral environment. For rac-1, this is the heterochiral chain C33(9):{12/12/21}; (⋯O2–C2–C1–O1–H1⋯O′2–H′2⋯O″1–H″1⋯), in which molecules with different configurations alternate. In (S)-1 crystals, this is the homochiral chain C11(2):11 (⋯O1–H1⋯). The results obtained once again confirm the influence of the chiral environment on the crystallization of scalarly identical molecules

Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding in Alpha-Hydroxy Carboxylic Acids Crystals: Connectivity, Synthons, Supramolecular Motifs

Synthon theory underlies the analysis and empirical prediction of the crystal structure. Supramolecular synthons (SMSs) formed by intermolecular hydrogen bonds, such as carboxylic R22(8) and C11(4) and alcoholic C11(2) ones, are among the most popular. The subject of this publication is the identification of specific synthons in alpha-hydroxycarboxylic acids (AHAs) crystals, in which carboxyl and alcohol fragments are present simultaneously. A series of 11 single-enantiomeric and racemic crystals of substituted lactic acids, the simplest chiral AHA family, were prepared and studied by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) method. Advanced analysis of our own and published (Cambridge Structural Database) data on the 33 crystal structures of lactic and achiral AHAs of diverse structures revealed that their supramolecular organization differs significantly from that of simple carboxylic acids. We found that in AHA crystals, hydrogen bonds RC(O)O−H···O(H)−C(R′R′′)C(O)OH (in our notation HB 12) and O=C(OH)C(R′R′′)−O−H···O=C(OH)R′ (HB 23) predominate. The frequency of intermolecular hydrogen bonds is interconnected with the frequency of SMSs. Thus, the synthons mentioned above occur but do not dominate in AHA crystals. Linear synthons C22(6):12/23 and cyclic synthons R22(10):23/23 and R33(11):12/23/23 are most often implemented. An essential role in the choice of cyclic synthons is played by the chiral characteristics of the sample

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Nanoporous Gl-POSS-Branched Polymeric Gas Separation Membranes

Novel nanoporous Gl-POSS-branched polymers based on the macroinitiator of anionic nature, 2,4-toluene diisocyanate, and octaglycidyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (Gl-POSS) were obtained as gas separation membranes. The synthesis of polymers was carried out using various loads of Gl-POSS. It was found that the main reaction proceeding with 2,4-toluene diisocyanate is the polyaddition, accompanied by the isocyanate groups opening of the carbonyl part. This unusual opening of isocyanate groups leads to the formation of coplanar acetal nature polyisocyanates (O-polyisocyanate). The terminal O-polyisocyanate links initiate the subsequent opening of the epoxide rings in Gl-POSS. As a result, Gl-POSS serves as a hard and bulky branching agent and creates the specific framing supramolecular structure, which leads to the formation of nanopores in the polymer, where the flexible polyether components are located inside the cavities. Thermal, mechanical, physical, and chemical properties of the obtained polymers were studied at various Gl-POSS contents in the polymer matrix. It was found that these polymers show high selectivity of gas transport properties for pure ammonia relative to nitrogen and hydrogen at ambient temperature. Measurements showed that the gas permeability coefficients and the values of ideal selectivity were in a non-additive dependence to the Gl-POSS content

Chirality, Gelation Ability and Crystal Structure: Together or Apart? Alkyl Phenyl Ethers of Glycerol as Simple LMWGs

Chiral recognition plays an important role in the self-assembly of soft materials, in particular supramolecular organogels formed by low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs). Out of 14 pairs of the studied racemic and enantiopure samples of alkyl-substituted phenyl ethers of glycerol, only eight enantiopure diols form the stable gels in nonane. The formation of gels from solutions was studied by polarimetry, and their degradation with the formation of xerogels was studied by the PXRD method. The revealed crystalline characteristics of all studied xerogels corresponded to those for crystalline samples of the parent gelators. In addition to those previously investigated, crystalline samples of enantiopure para-n-alkylphenyl glycerol ethers [alkyl = pentyl (5), hexyl (6), heptyl (7), octyl (8), nonyl (9)] and racemic 3-(3,5-dimethylphenoxy)propane-1,2-diol (rac-14) have been examined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Among 22 samples of compounds 1–14 studied by SC-XRD, seven different types of supramolecular motifs are identified, of which only two are realized in crystals of supramolecular gelators. An attempt was made to relate the ability to gel formation with the characteristics of the supramolecular motif of a potential gelling agent, and the frequency of formation of the motif, required for gelation, with the chiral characteristics of the sample
