A method for producing a radioactive metal complex includes a step of allowing a radioactive metal to react with DOTA or a derivative thereof as a ligand in a reaction liquid to form a radioactive metal complex. The reaction liquid contains water, a buffer, and a water-soluble organic solvent. The radioactive metal is .sup.89Zr or .sup.225Ac. The ligand may have, in the structure thereof, a group to which a peptide is linked. The content of the water-soluble organic solvent in the reaction liquid is preferably 2% by volume or more and 50% by volume or less. The radioactive metal is preferably allowed to react with the ligand in the reaction liquid at 30° C. or higher and 80° C. or lower.

Metal-organic framework materials (MOFs) are highly porous entities comprising a multidentate organic ligand coordinated to multiple metal centers, typically as a coordination polymer. MOFs may comprise a plurality of metal centers, and a multidentate organic ligand coordinated via at least two binding sites to the plurality of metal centers to define an at least partially crystalline network structure having a plurality of internal pores, and in which the multidentate organic ligand comprises first and second binding sites bridged together with a third binding site comprising a diimine moiety. The multidentate organic ligand may comprise a reaction product of a vicinal dicarbonyl compound and an amine-substituted salicylic acid to define the first, second and third binding sites. Particular MOFs may comprise 5,59′-(((1E,2E)-ethane-1,2-diylidene)bis-(azaneylylidene))bis(2-hydroxybenzoic acid) as a multidentate organic ligand.

An electrode material and a lithium-ion energy storage device are provided. The electrode material includes at least one material selected from the following structures: a Keplerate-type polyoxometalate containing molybdenum and iron; a Keplerate-type polyoxometalate containing molybdenum and vanadium; a bi-capped Keggin-type polyoxometalate containing vanadium; and a polyoxometalate containing vanadium and a transition metal, wherein the transition metal is nickel, cobalt, iron, or manganese. A lithium-ion energy storage device having the above electrode materials may still maintain higher capacity at higher current density, and may still maintain the original capacity after many cycles.

##STR00001##

Also provided are formulations comprising these organometallic compounds. Further provided are OLEDs and related consumer products that utilize these organometallic compounds.

Selective hydrogenation processes are disclosed that can upgrade impure feeds, such as those obtained from biomass and containing a number of small (e.g., 2-6 carbon atom) molecules having aldehyde and/or ketone carbon atoms. For example, whereas glycolaldehyde and its methylated derivative, hydroxyacetone (acetol) are both high value intermediates for certain downstream processing reactions, they are normally recovered in a condensate from pyrolysis of carbohydrates (e.g., aldose-containing sugars) together with glyoxal and its methylated derivative, pyruvaldehyde. The selective hydrogenation of these compounds bearing two carbonyl carbon atoms, without over-hydrogenation to ethylene glycol and propylene glycol, can increase the concentration of the desired intermediates. These beneficial effects of selective hydrogenation may be achieved through the use of a hydrogenation catalyst comprising noble metals such as Ru and Pt.

Mixed ligand phosphinogold(I) complexes as anticancer agents. The gold(I) ion of the complexes is coordinated to a phosphine and a dithiocarbamate or halogen ligand. Also described are a pharmaceutical composition incorporating the phosphinogold(I) complex, a method of synthesizing the phosphinogold(I) complex, and a method of treating cancer. The phosphinogold(I) complexes exhibit potent cytotoxicity against lung, cervical, and liver cancer cells.
