    Notes: Abstract As the survival rate of children with malignancies has increased over past decades, the follow up of adult long-term survivors (LTS) of childhood cancer should focus on late effects of disease and treatment. Gonadal function was therefore studied in 54 LTS (aged 17–29 years; 33 male, 21 female) 2–18 years after treatment for malignancies during childhood or adolescence. To analyse the sensitivity of different diagnostic methods, tests of endocrine function (n = 52), spermiograms (n = 14), gynaecological status (n = 20) and ultrasonography of the gonads (n = 53) were compared with the results of equivalent tests in 23 age-matched normal controls (12 male, 11 female). There were no differences between male and female LTS concerning age at diagnosis, gonadal dose of irradiation (XRT) and doses of applied chemotherapeutic agents. Whereas male LTS had elevated levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) before (P 〈 0.05; P 〈 0.001) and after (P 〈 0.01; P 〈 0.001) stimulation with gonadotropin releasing hormone, female LTS exhibited normal endocrine function. Accordingly, male patients exhibited lower testicular volumes than normal controls, as measured with a Prader orchidometer (P 〈 0.01) or by ultrasonography (P 〈 0.001). Gynaecological status and ultrasonography of the gonads were normal in female LTS and controls. Whereas all spermiograms of normal controls (n = 8) showed a normal sperm cell density (SCD), only 2 of 14 male LTS exhibited a normal SCD (P 〈 0.001). Azoospermic LTS (n = 9) had been treated more often with alkylating agents and had received higher (P 〈 0.05) gonadal doses of XRT. All male LTS with testicular volumes below the normal range (〈 13 ml) and basal FSH levels above the normal range (〉 10 IU/l) exhibited azoospermia, whereas LTS with normal values for testicular volume and basal FSH had a normal SCD. Conclusion A sex-specific susceptibility for gonadal damage after treatment for malignancies might be responsible, in part, for the impaired gonadal function of male LTS. Therapy with alkylating agents and /or high gonadal doses of XRT were important risk factors for azoospermia. A simple method to estimate potential fertility in individual LTS is to measure testicular volume, using a Prader orchidometer, and basal FSH serum levels.

    Description / Table of Contents: Chemistry of Dimesityl Iron. X. Mesityl Iron Complexes [FeMes(X)]2 with a Central {Fe2(μ-Mes)2} Unit (Mes = C6H2-2,4,6-(CH3)3)Dimeric complexes [{MesFe(OAryl)}2] with coordination number (CN) of 3 are obtained from Fe2Mes4 1 by partial acidolyses with 2,6-di-tert-butyl-substituted phenols (HOAryl). 1 reacts with 1,3-diketones in a molar ratio of 1:2 to [{MesFe(diketonate)}2] with CN 4. A central {Fe2(μ-Mes)2}-unit with short Fe - Fe distances of 2.56 to 2.63 Å (1: 2.615 Å) is found in both types of complexes. The mixed ligand complexes react with an excess of phenol or diketone to {Fe(OAryl)2} or {Fe(diketonate)2}, respectively. 1 reacts with HOAryl in the molar ratio of 1:1 to [Fe2(μ-Mes)2Mes(OAryl)]. The structures of [Fe2(μ-Mes)2(OC6H2-2,6-tBu2-4-CH3)2] (3), [Fe2(μ-Mes)2Mes(OC6H2-2,4,6-tBu3)] (5) and [Fe2(μ-Mes)2{(tBuCO)2CH}2] (9) are presented.
    Notes: Durch partielle Acidolyse von Fe2Mes4 1, mit 2,6-di-tert-butyl-substituierten Phenolen gelangt man zu dimeren Komplexen [{MesFe(OAryl)}2] der Koordinationszahl drei am Fe-Atom. Setzt man 1 mit 1,3-Diketonen ebenfalls im Verhältnis 1:2 um, entstehen die Verbindungen [{MesFe(diketonat)}2] mit Koordinationszahl vier. In beiden Komplextypen liegt eine zentrale {Fe2(μ-Mes)2}-Einheit mit kurzen Fe - Fe-Abständen von 2,56 bis 2,63 Å vor (1: 2,615 Å). Bricht man die Reaktion von 1 mit HO-Aryl bei einem Molverhältnis 1:1 ab, lassen sich die Primärprodukte [Fe2(μ-Mes)2Mes(OAryl)] isolieren. Die Gemischtligandenkomplexe können zu {Fe(OAryl)2} bzw. {Fe(diketonat)2} weiterreagieren. Die Strukturen von [Fe2(μ-Mes)2(OC6H2-2,6-tBu2-4-CH3)2] (3), [Fe2(μ-Mes)2Mes(OC6H2-2,4,6-tBu3)] (5) und [Fe2(μ-Mes)2{(tBuCO)2CH}2] (9) werden mitgeteilt.

    Description / Table of Contents: Polymorphic and Pseudosymmetrical Hydrates MSeO3 · H2O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, Cd)By crystallization from aqueous solutions of MSeO3 and M(HSeO3)2, the selenites MSeO3 · H2O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, Cd) were obtained and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction and IR-spectroscopy. The crystal structure of ZnSeO3 · H2O was determined. The IR spectra indicate that the hydrates are isotypic and contain H2O molecules of symmetry mm2. However, the X-ray data show different structure types with H2O molecules of site symmetry m or 1. CdSeO3 · H2O and MnSeO3 · H2O are isotypic (o.rh., MnSeO3 · D2O type). CoSeO3 · H2O (mon.) as well as the isotypic NiSeO3 · H2O and ZnSeO3 · H2O (mon.) form new structure types. These findings are discussed on the basis of the crystal structure of ZnSeO3 · H2O (P21/n, a = 477.9(1), b = 1319.4(5), c = 570.1(1) pm, β = 90.84(2)°, Z = 4, Dx = 3.886 g · cm-3, R = 0.035 for 722 reflections with I 〉 2σ1) and the local pseudosymmetry of its components, i.e., layers ∞2[ZnSeO3 · H2O] of ZnO6 octahedra sharing four equatorial vertices, SeO32- anions and H2O molecules.
    Notes: Durch Kristallisation aus MSeO3- und M(HSeO3)2-Lösungen wurden die Selenite MSeO3 · H2O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, Cd) erhalten und röntgenographisch sowie IR-spektroskopisch charakterisiert. Von ZnSeO3 · H2O wurde die Kristallstruktur bestimmt. Die IR-Spektren deuten auf Isotypie der Hydrate und H2O-Moleküle der Symmetrie mm2. Die Röntgenbeugungsdaten zeigen dagegen das Vorliegen verschiedener Strukturtypen mit H2O-Molekülen der Lagesymmetrie m oder 1. CdSeO3 · H2O und MnSeO3 · H2O sind isotyp (o.rh., MnSeO3 · D2O-Typ). CoSeO3 · H2O (mon.) sowie die isotypen NiSeO3 · H2O und ZnSeO3 · H2O (mon.) kristallisieren in neuen Strukturtypen. Diese Befunde werden auf der Basis der Kristallstruktur von ZnSeO3 · H2O (P21/n, a = 477,9(1), b = 1319,4(5), c = 570,1(1) pm, β = 90,84(2)°, Z = 4, Dx = 3,886 g · cm-3, R = 0,035 für 722 Reflexe mit I 〉 2σ1) und der lokalen Pseudosymmetrie ihrer Bausteine (Schichten ∞2[ZnSeO3 · H2O] aus vierfach eckenverknüpften ZnO6-Oktaedern, SeO32--Anionen und H2O-Moleküle) diskutiert.
