Indoor radon in rural dwellings of the South-Pannonian region.

The results of indoor radon survey in the South-Pannonian Province Vojvodina (Serbia and Montenegro) are presented. The sampling strategy was oriented towards suburban and urban regions in the Province. For the dwellings typical for such regions the geometric mean annual radon activity concentration of 76.1 Bq m(-3) is measured (1000 measurements). This result leads to the annual dose estimate of 4.3 mSv y(-1), which is above the recommended action limit of ICRP. For urban dwellings in Novi Sad (the Province capital), the annual mean value of 54 Bq m(-3) (220 measurements) is obtained. By comparison of these two results it is concluded that radon surveys based on measurements in urban environment may seriously underestimate the radon-related health risk. The elevated radon levels could not be explained by elevated uranium levels of surface soil.

Further sesquiterpene lactones from Anthemis carpatica.

A new germacranolide, (E)-1alpha, 10beta-epoxy-3beta-acetoxy-6alpha-hydroxygermacra-4,11 (13)-dien-12,8alpha-olide, together with nine new highly oxygenated guaiadien-12,6alpha-olides of anthemolide, and cumambrin type were identified in the repeated examination of the aerial parts of the flowering Anthemis carpatica. In addition, six known guaianolides belonging to the same groups, also isolated previously from A. carpatica, along with two guaianolides, 2beta-hydroxyepiligustrin and cumambrin B, not found before in this species, were isolated this time.

Guaianolides from Centaurea nicolai: antifungal activity.

A new guaianolide, 3-deacetyl-9-O-acetylsalograviolide A, along with four known closely related lactones, salograviolide A, 9-O-acetylsalograviolide A, kandavanolide and salograviolide B were detected in the aerial parts of the flowering plant Centaurea nicolai. Antifungal tests performed on salograviolide A and its 9-O-acetyl and 3-O-deacetyl-9-O-acetyl derivatives revealed inhibitory activity against Aspergillus niger, A. ochraceus, Penicillium ochrochloron, Cladosporium cladosporoides, Fusarium tricinctum and Phomopsis helianthi. Neither of them was active against Trichoderma viride.

Mixed cobalt(III) complexes with aromatic amino acids and diamine. Part IV. Influence of noncovalent intra-and interligand interactions on rotamer population of the S-phenylalaninato and S-tyrosinato side groups in (1,2-diaminoethane)bis-(S-aminocarboxylato)cobalt(III) complexes.

Rotamer population of S-tyrosinato and S-phenylalaninato ligands side groups in diastereomers of (1,2-diaminoethane)bis-(S-aminocarboxylato)cobalt(III) complexes is calculated by vicinal alpha and beta proton coupling constant analysis. The effect of noncovalent intra- and interligand interactions on the population of rotamers in D20 solution is discussed. It has been established that in all the complexes investigated the most abundant is rotamer t, in which aromatic voluminous moiety and carboxylic group are in an anti position. In almost all complexes the lowest content is of rotamer g, in which these two groups are in the nearest position. Relatively high population of rotamer h in complex 5 tyr, in spite of high steric hindrances, is due to intra- and interligand NH...pi interactions.
