Lesion beyond moiety is a civil law legal system civil law term used to describe the ability of a seller of immovable property to rescind that sale if the price paid for the property is less than usually half of the actual value of the property at the time of the sale. Louisiana Civil Code Article 2589 is entitled Rescission for lesion beyond moiety and states that the seller may rescind the sale of an immovable when the price, or the property it is exchanged for, is less than one half of the fair market value. Special rules apply to exchanges that have one party exchanging immovable property for a mixture of immovable or movable property, and cash the party exchanging the mixture of property has the right to rescind the exchange, not the party exchanging the immovable. The concept is known as laesio enormis in some other civil law countries, where it is not necessarily restricted to sales of immovable property. For example, under 934 of the Austrian Civil Code , the party to a contract may rescind it if it receives less than half of the fair value of the consideration. The other party may avert rescission by agreeing to pay the difference to full value. The laesio enormis has been criticized from a law and economics perspective for its inefficient incentives. In many cases it is impossible to profit from gathering information because profits above the mentioned threshold are prohibited by the law. ref Grechenig, Kristoffel R., http ssrn.com abstract 820187 The Economics of the Rule of Laesio Enormis Die laesio enormis als enorme Laesion der sozialen Wohlfahrt? , Journal f r Rechtspolitik , No. 1, 2006. ref References Reflist Category Civil law legal system Category Real property law Category Louisiana law law term stub de laesio enormis pt les o enorme ... more details

It may also refer to the undesired byproducts of a reaction. In biochemistry and molecular biology , a residue refers to a specific monomer within the polymer polymeric chain of a polysaccharide , protein or nucleic acid . For example, one might say, This protein consists of 118 amino acid residues or The histidine residue is considered to be basic due to its imidazole ring. Note that a residue is different from a Functional group moiety , which, in the above example would be constituted by the imidazole ring or the imidazole moiety . Note the origin of this usage during the process by which monomer ic building blocks e.g. amino acid s are strung together into a polymeric chain e.g. a protein , some material typically adding up to one molecule of water is discarded from each building block, and only a residue of the building block ends up in the finished product.

A new chemical entity NCE , or new molecular entity NME , is, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration , a drug that contains no active Moiety chemistry moiety that has been approved by the FDA in any other application submitted under section 505 b of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act . An active moiety is a molecule or ion , excluding those appended portions of the molecule that cause the drug to be an ester , salt including a salt with hydrogen bond hydrogen or coordination bond s , or other noncovalent derivative such as a Coordination complex complex , chelate , or clathrate of the molecule, responsible for the physiological or pharmacological action of the drug substance. An NCE is a molecule developed by the innovator company in the early drug discovery stage, which after undergoing clinical trials could translate into a drug that could be a cure for some disease. Chemical synthesis Synthesis of an NCE is the first step in the process of drug development . Once the synthesis of the NCE has been completed, companies have two options before them. They can either go for clinical trials on their own or license the NCE to another company. In the latter option, companies can avoid the expensive and lengthy process of clinical trials, as the licensee company would be conducting further clinical trials and subsequently launching the drug. Companies adopting this model of business would be able to generate high margins as they get a huge one time payment for the NCE apart from entering into a revenue sharing agreement with the licensee company. Under the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007 , all new chemical entities must first be reviewed by an advisory committee before FDA can approve these products.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 Polypyridine complexes are compounds in which a polypyridine, such as 2,2 bipyridine , 1,10 phenanthroline , or 2,2 6 2 terpyridine , coordinates to a metal Ion physics ion . Polypyridine compounds are multidentate ligand s which have characteristic properties, such as photosensitization. The complexes are very stable to light, electricity, and heat because the bonds between the central metal ion and polypyridine ligands are usually very strong furthermore, the polypyridine itself is generally very stable. The compounds have peculiar optical, electrochemical, and magnetic properties. Some complexes exhibit a strong absorption band in the visible light region, which is called metal to ligand charge transfer MLCT or ligand to metal charge transfer LMCT . The properties of the complexes can be tuned easily by introducing substituents, for example, electron donation, electron withdrawal, and conjugating groups, to the polypyridine Moiety chemistry moiety . The MLCT absorption band can be shifted, the emission wavelength can be changed, and the emission lifetime can be extended. A well known example of a polypyridine complex is rutheniumtris bipyridine , Ru bpy sub 3 sub sup 2 sup . This complex exhibits intense luminescence at room temperature in aqueous solution. Another example is a platinum bipyridine dithiolate complex, Pt bpy bdt , in which bdt denotes a 1,2 benzenedithiolate ion anion . This complex also exhibits Fluorescence photoluminescence at room temperature, and its wavelength and lifetime can be tuned by substitution of either bipyridine or dithiolate moieties. Structural control is easier than for ruthenium complexes due to the square planar structure of the platinum complex. DEFAULTSORT Polypyridine Complex Category Pyridines ... more details
Refimprove date December 2009 Image Mesogen illustration.png frame Examples of mesogenic structures Mesogen is the fundamental unit of a liquid crystal that induces structural order in the crystals. Typically, a liquid crystalline molecule consists of a rigid Moiety chemistry moiety and one or more flexible parts. The rigid part aligns molecules in one direction, whereas the flexible parts induce fluidity in the liquid crystal. This rigid part is referred to as mesogen, and it plays a crucial role in the molecule. The optimum balance of these two parts is essential to form liquid crystalline materials. In a liquid crystal calamitic liquid crystal , the mesogen is a rod like structure composed of two or more aromatic and aliphatic rings connected in one direction. In a columnar phase discotic liquid crystal , the flat shaped aromatic core that makes molecules stack in one direction is defined as the mesogen. These rod like and disk like structures are formed not only by covalent bond s, but also by intermolecular force non covalent interaction s, such as hydrogen bond s, Ionic bond ionic interaction s, and Complex chemistry metal coordination . In such cases, key structures which define the macromolecule macromolecular shapes of the assembled molecules are called mesogens or mesogenic parts.

Unreferenced date August 2009 Photopigments are unstable pigments that undergo a chemical change when they absorb light. The term is generally applied to the non protein chromophore Moiety chemistry moiety of photosensitive chromoprotein s, such as the pigments involved in photosynthesis and photoreception . In medical terminology, photopigment commonly refers to the photoreceptor protein s of the retina . Citation needed date August 2009 Photosynthetic pigments Main Photosynthetic pigment Photosynthetic pigment converting light into biochemical energy . Examples for photosynthetic pigments are chlorophyll , carotenoid s and phycobilin s. These pigments enter a high energy state upon absorbing a photon which they can release in the form of chemical energy. This can occur via light driven pumping of ions across a biological membrane e.g. in the case of the proton pump bacteriorhodopsin or via excitation and transfer of electrons released by photolysis e.g. in the photosystem s of the thylakoid membrane s of plant chloroplast s . In chloroplast s, the light driven electron transfer chain in turn drives the pumping of protons across the membrane. Photoreceptor pigments Main Photoreceptor protein The pigments in photoreceptor protein s either change their Conformational isomerism conformation or undergo photoreduction when they absorb a photon. This change in the conformation or redox state of the chromophore then affects the protein conformation or activity and triggers a signal transduction cascade. Examples for photoreceptor pigments include retinal for example in rhodopsin , Flavin group flavin for example in cryptochrome , and Bilin biochemistry bilin for example in phytochrome .
