Diethyl 2,2′-bis­(hy­droxy­imino)-3,3′-(hydrazinediyl­idene)dibutano­ate

Each mol­ecule of the title compound, C12H18N4O6, is located on an inversion centre at the mid-point of the central N—N bond. The azo groups C=N of the Schiff base group have an E conformation and the azo groups in the oxime C=N—O groups have a Z conformation. O–H⋯O hydrogen bonds link neighbouring mol­ecules into infinite monolayers perpendicular to the a axis

Data-driven Computational Social Science: A Survey

Social science concerns issues on individuals, relationships, and the whole society. The complexity of research topics in social science makes it the amalgamation of multiple disciplines, such as economics, political science, and sociology, etc. For centuries, scientists have conducted many studies to understand the mechanisms of the society. However, due to the limitations of traditional research methods, there exist many critical social issues to be explored. To solve those issues, computational social science emerges due to the rapid advancements of computation technologies and the profound studies on social science. With the aids of the advanced research techniques, various kinds of data from diverse areas can be acquired nowadays, and they can help us look into social problems with a new eye. As a result, utilizing various data to reveal issues derived from computational social science area has attracted more and more attentions. In this paper, to the best of our knowledge, we present a survey on data-driven computational social science for the first time which primarily focuses on reviewing application domains involving human dynamics. The state-of-the-art research on human dynamics is reviewed from three aspects: individuals, relationships, and collectives. Specifically, the research methodologies used to address research challenges in aforementioned application domains are summarized. In addition, some important open challenges with respect to both emerging research topics and research methods are discussed.Comment: 28 pages, 8 figure

2,2′-[1,1′-(Octane-1,8-diyldioxy­dinitrilo)diethyl­idyne]diphenol

The title compound, C24H32N2O4, has a crystallographic inversion centre at the mid-point of the central C—C bond. At each end of the mol­ecule, intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds generate six-membered S(6) ring motifs. The crystal structure is stabilized by pairs of weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds that link neighbouring mol­ecules into R 2 2(40) ring motifs, which in turn form infinite one-dimensional supra­molecular ribbon structures

Bis[(E)-4-bromo-2-(ethoxy­imino­meth­yl)phenolato-κ2 N,O 1]copper(II)

The title compound, [Cu(C9H9BrNO2)2], is a centrosymmetric mononuclear copper(II) complex. The Cu atom is four-coordinated in a trans-CuN2O2 square-planar geometry by two phenolate O and two oxime N atoms from two symmetry-related N,O-bidentate (E)-4-bromo-2-(ethoxy­imino­meth­yl)phenolate oxime-type ligands. An inter­esting feature of the crystal structure is the centrosymmetric inter­molecular Cu⋯O inter­action [3.382 (1) Å], which establishes an infinite chain structure along the b axis

The title bis­oxime compound, C19H22N2O2, synthesized by the reaction of 4-methyl-2-hydroxy­benzaldehyde with 1,3-bis­(amino­oxy)propane in ethanol, adopts a V-shaped conformation. The dihedral angle between the rings is 84.59 (3)°. The mol­ecule is disposed about a crystallographic twofold rotation axis, with one C atom lying on the axis. In the crystal, mol­ecules are packed by C—H⋯π(Ph) inter­actions, forming chains

1,3-Bis[(4-nitro­benzyl­idene)amino­oxy]propane

The complete molecule of title compound, C17H16N4O6, is generated by a crystallographic twofold axis. Within the mol­ecule, the two benzene units are approximately perpen­dicular, making a dihedral angle of 85.91 (4)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked into a three-dimensional network by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and short O⋯O and N⋯O inter­actions, with distances of 2.998 (2) and 2.968 (3) Å, respectively
