The news hit the daily press on Friday, 8 January 2010, following the first disclosure by one of São Paulo’s leading dailies on 1 January that the company had been placed on the blacklist, immediately prompting negative reactions from various purchasers of COSAN products, including retail giant WalMart.
The structure exhibits both electrostatic interactions, via a dispersed negative ionic charge covering the whole molecule,2 and non-bonding intermolecular interactions between its weakly polarized B–H and C–H bonds.3 This duality imparts a molecular property of being simultaneously hydrophobic and hydrophilic, and makes COSAN soluble in both water and oils.
Cioran,b Shoji Tachikawa,c Hiroyuki Nakamura,d Francesc Teixidorb and Clara Vin˜as*b The boron-rich cobaltabisdicarbollide (COSAN) and its 8,8'-I2 derivative (I2-COSAN), both of purely inorganic nature, are shown to cross through synthetic lipid membranes.
The polarized lipid molecules that make up biological membranes also possess amphiphilic properties, and can assemble into membranes and vesicles formed from lipid bilayers.4,5 However, unlike lipid bilayer membranes, the membranes of COSAN vesicles are monolayers.4 Recently,[3,3'-Co(8-I-1,2-C2B9H10)2]—, I2-COSAN, has also been found to a Laboratory of Molecular Biophysics, Dept.
