Discovering Copper for Methane C–H Bond Functionalization
2015
The copper complex Tp(CF3)2,BrCu(NCMe) (1, Tp(CF3)2,Br = hydrotris((3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4-bromo)-pyrazol-1-yl)borate) catalyzes the insertion of the CHCO2Et group (from ethyl diazoacetate N2CHCO2Et, EDA) into the C–H bonds of methane, in a homogeneous process that uses supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) as the reaction medium. Other light alkanes such as ethane, propane, and butane have been also functionalized with this copper-based catalyst, in the first example of the derivatization of the series of C1–C4 alkanes with this metal and a soluble catalyst.
Synthesis of molecularly uniform model oligomers for 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate and 1,4-butanediol based polyurethanes by using the 3,5-di-tert-but…
1997
A modified benzyloxycarbonyl (BOC) protective group, the 3,5-di-tert-butyl substituted BOC (3,5-tBBOC) group, was introduced to the stepwise synthesis of molecularly uniform oligourethanes based on 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate (NDI) and 1,4-butanediol (BDO) for the protection of the amino functions of the starting material 1,5-naphthalene-diamine (NDA). The tert-butyl substituents of the 3,5-tBBOC group significantly improved the solubility of the intermediate products in the oligourethane synthesis. Thus, applying this modified protective group, reactions could be carried out, which were not possible with the conventional BOC group, due to the insolubility of the compounds in all suitable …
Rotational spectra of gauche perfluoro-n-butane, C4F10; perfluoro-iso-butane, (CF3)3CF; and tris(trifluoromethyl)methane, (CF3)3CH
2007
Abstract The microwave spectra of the gauche conformer of perfluoro- n -butane, n -C 4 F 10 , of perfluoro- iso -butane, (CF 3 ) 3 CF, and of tris(trifluoromethyl)methane, (CF 3 ) 3 CH, have been observed and assigned. The rotational and centrifugal distortion constants for gauche n -C 4 F 10 are: A = 1058.11750(7) MHz, B = 617.6832(1) MHz, C = 552.18794(1) MHz, Δ J = 0.0257(5) kHz, δ J = 0.0052(3) kHz. A C–C–C–C dihedral angle, ω , of ∼55° has been determined. These values agree well with those obtained from a coupled cluster (CCSD/cc-PVTZ) calculation. The rotational and centrifugal distortion constants for iso -C 4 F 10 and iso -C 4 HF 9 are: B o = 816.4519(4) MHz, D J = 0.023(2) …
Protective effect of trehalose-loaded liposomes against UVB-induced photodamage in human keratinocytes
2014
Trehalose, a naturally occurring non-reducing disaccharide, is known to act as a major protein stabilizer that can reduce ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced corneal damage when topically applied to the eye. However, due to the low skin permeability of trehalose, which makes the development of topical formulations difficult, its use as a skin photoprotective agent has been limited. Previous findings demonstrated that liposomes may significantly improve the intracellular delivery of trehalose. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the protective effects of trehalose-loaded liposomes against UVB-induced photodamage using the immortalized human keratinocyte cell line, HaCaT. The effects were al…
Thermodynamic and Kinetic Modeling of Co-utilization of Glucose and Xylose for 2,3-BDO Production by Zymomonas mobilis
2021
Prior engineering of the ethanologen Zymomonas mobilis has enabled it to metabolize xylose and to produce 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) as a dominant fermentation product. When co-fermenting with xylose, glucose is preferentially utilized, even though xylose metabolism generates ATP more efficiently during 2,3-BDO production on a BDO-mol basis. To gain a deeper understanding of Z. mobilis metabolism, we first estimated the kinetic parameters of the glucose facilitator protein of Z. mobilis by fitting a kinetic uptake model, which shows that the maximum transport capacity of glucose is seven times higher than that of xylose, and glucose is six times more affinitive to the transporter than xylose.…
Nonlinear optical properties of diaromatic stilbene, butadiene and thiophene derivatives
2021
Series of highly polar stilbene (1a–e), diphenylbutadiene (2a–c) and phenylethenylthiophene (3a–c) derivatives were prepared via Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons method with a view to produce new and efficient materials for second harmonic generation (SHG) in the solid-state. The single-crystal X-ray structures of compounds 1–3 reveal extensive polymorphism and a peculiar photodimerization of the 2-chloro-3,4-dimethoxy-4′-nitrostilbene derivative 1a to afford two polymorphs of tetra-aryl cyclobutane 4. The stilbene congeners 2-chloro-3,4-dimethoxy-4′-nitrostilbene (1a·non-centro), 5-bromo-2-hydroxy-3-nitro-4′-nitrostilbene (1b) and 4-dimethylamino-4′-nitrostilbene (1e), as well as 4′-fluoro-4′′-nitr…
