In the salt 1-methylpiperazine-1,4-diium bis(dihydrogen phosphate), C5H13N2(2+)·2H2PO4(-), (I), and the solvated salt 2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyridinium dihydrogen phosphate-orthophosphoric acid (1/1), C10H9N2(+)·H2PO4(-)·H3PO4, (II), the formation of O-H...O and N-H...O hydrogen bonds between the dihydrogen phosphate (H2PO4(-)) anions and the cations constructs a three- and two-dimensional anionic-cationic network, respectively. In (I), the self-assembly of H2PO4(-) anions forms a two-dimensional pseudo-honeycomb-like supramolecular architecture along the (010) plane. 1-Methylpiperazine-1,4-diium cations are trapped between the (010) anionic layers through three N-H...O hydrogen bonds. In solvated salt (II), the self-assembly of H2PO4(-) anions forms a two-dimensional supramolecular architecture with open channels projecting along the [001] direction. The 2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyridinium cations are trapped between the open channels by N-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds. From a study of previously reported structures, dihydrogen phosphate anions show a supramolecular flexibility depending on the nature of the cations. The dihydrogen phosphate anion may be suitable for the design of the host lattice for host-guest supramolecular systems.
A series of five dicarboxylic acid complexes of succinic acid and malic acid with various substituted amines have been synthesized and structurally analyzed; also the supramolecular organizations within their crystalline solids have been studied.
In bis(2-aminoanilinum) fumarate, 2C₆H₉N₂⁺·C₄H₂O₄²⁻, (I), the asymmetric unit consists of two aminoanilinium cations and one fumarate dianion, whereas in 3-methylanilinium hydrogen fumarate, C₇H₁₀N⁺·C₄H3O₄⁻, (II), and 4-chloroanilinium hydrogen fumarate, C₆H₇ClN⁺·C₄H3O₄⁻, (III), the asymmetric unit contains two symmetry-independent hydrogen fumate anions and anilinium cations with a slight difference in their geometric parameters; the two salts are isostructural. In (II) and (III), the carboxylic acid H atoms of the anions are disordered across both ends of the anion, with equal site occupancies of 0.50. Both the 4-chloroanilinium cations of (III) are disordered over two orientations with major occupancies fixed at 0.60 in each case. The hydrogen fumarate anions of (II) and (III) form one-dimensional anionic chains linked through O-H∙∙∙O hydrogen bonds. Salts (II) and (III) form two-dimensional supramolecular sheets built from R₄⁴16), R₄⁴(18), R₅⁵(25) and C₂²(14) motifs extending parallel to the (010) plane, whereas in (I), an (010) sheet is formed built from two R₄³(13) motifs, two R₂²(9) motifs and an R₄⁴(18) motif.
IP spoofing has been exploited by Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks to conceal flooding sources and localities in flooding traffic, and prevent legitimate hosts into becoming reflectors, redirecting and amplifying flooding traffic. Thus, the ability to filter spoofed IP packets near victims is essential to their own protection as well as to their avoidance of becoming involuntary DoS reflectors. Although an attacker can forge any field in the IP header, he or she cannot falsify the number of hops an IP packet takes to reach its destination. This hop-count information can be inferred from the Timeto-Live (TTL) value in the IP header. Using a mapping between IP addresses and their hop-counts to an Internet server, the server can distinguish spoofed IP packets from legitimate ones. Based on this observation, we present a novel filtering technique that is immediately deployable to weed out spoofed IP packets. We have an IP to Hop Count Mapping Table (IP2HC) to store the Hop Count Values. We implement HCF in the Linux kernel, demonstrating its benefits using experimental measurements. We deploy the security mechanism in Globus Toolkit (GT4) to ensure that HCF can identify the spoofed packet in a Grid Environment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
