The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system with P21/c space group, and a = 4.0342(3), b = 17.7999(12), c = 10.0127(7) , β = 91.558(1)°, V = 718.73(9) 3, Z = 4, CH4Cl2HgN6, Mr = 371.59, Dc = 3.434 g·cm-3, F(000) = 664, S = 1.037, the final R = 0.0223 and wR = 0.0642 for 1646 observed reflections with Ⅰ 〉 2σ(Ⅰ). The central Hg is coordinated by one N atom from 1,5-diaminotetrazole and one mono-dentate terminal chloride and two bi-dentate bridging chloride ligands.

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals the title complex represents a three-dimensional network structure featuring 2D [Cu N3]n plane units bridged by bridging dmpz ligands to form a 3D network. Research results reveal that 1 has lower impact sensitivity and friction sensitivity, which may be expected to become insensitive energetic material and have potential applications.

The complexity is regulated and controlled by homeostasis, which is the balance of multiple opposing influences. The environmental effects finally guide the self-organized structure. The living systems are open, dynamic structures performing random, stationary, stochastic, self-organizing processes. The self-organizing procedure is defined by the spatial-temporal fractal structure, which is self-similar both in space and time. The system’s complexity appears in its energetics, which tries the most efficient use of the available energies;for that, it organizes various well-connected networks. The controller of environmental relations is the Darwinian selection on a long-time scale. The energetics optimize the healthy processes tuned to the highest efficacy and minimal loss (minimalization of the entropy production). The organism is built up by morphogenetic rules and develops various networks from the genetic level to the organism. The networks have intensive crosstalk and form a balance in the Nash equilibrium, which is the homeostatic state in healthy conditions. Homeostasis may be described as a Nash equilibrium, which ensures energy distribution in a “democratic” way regarding the functions of the parts in the complete system. Cancer radically changes the network system in the organism. Cancer is a network disease. Deviation from healthy networking appears at every level, from genetic (molecular) to cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. The strong proliferation of malignant tissue is the origin of most of the life-threatening processes. The weak side of cancer development is the change of complex information networking in the system, being vulnerable to immune attacks. Cancer cells are masters of adaptation and evade immune surveillance. This hiding process can be broken by electromagnetic nonionizing radiation, for which the malignant structure has no adaptation strategy. Our objective is to review the different sides of living complexity and use the knowledge to fight against cancer.展开更多

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis determined the molecular formula as Mg(tza)2(H20)4. The crystal belongs to the triclinic system with Pi space group, and a = 6.133(2), b = 6.488(2), c = 10.0127(7) A, a = 77.282(10), fl = 91.558(1), ), = 76.002(8)°, Y = 349.0(2)A3, Z = 1, C6HI4MgNsOs, Mr = 350.56, Dc = 1.668 g.cm-3, F(000) = 182,μ = 0.189, S = 1.000, the final R = 0.0294 and wR = 0.0785 for 1128 observed reflections with I 〉 20-(I). In this molecule, the tza ion exhibits an infrequent monodentate coordination mode. The magnesium center is hexa-coordinated to a slightly distorted octahedral configuration by six oxygen atoms from two tza ligands and four coordinated water molecules. DSC and TG-DTG analyses were applied to assess the thermal decomposition behavior. The kinetic parameters of the exothermal peak were calculated by non-isothermal reaction kinetics. The values of critical temperature of thermal explosion, △S≠, △H≠ and △G^≠, were obtained as 596 K, -42.25 J mo1^-1 K^-1, 296.43 kJ mol^-1 and 323.53 kJ mol1, respectively.展开更多
