A quantitative test of the mode-coupling theory of the ideal glass transition for a binary Lennard-Jones system
1996
Using a molecular dynamics computer simulation we determine the temperature dependence of the partial structure factors for a binary Lennard-Jones system. These structure factors are used as input data to solve numerically the wave-vector dependent mode-coupling equations in the long time limit. Using the so determined solutions, we compare the predictions of mode-coupling theory (MCT) with the results of a previously done molecular dynamics computer simulation [Phys. Rev. E 51, 4626 (1995), ibid. 52, 4134 (1995)]. From this comparison we conclude that MCT gives a fair estimate of the critical coupling constant, a good estimate of the exponent parameter, predicts the wave-vector dependence …
Photo- and Electroproduction of Eta Mesons on Nucleons and Nuclei
1995
Eta photo- and electroproduction off the nucleon is investigated in an approach that contains Born terms, vector meson and nucleon resonance contributions. In a comparison with the new Mainz data we find a large sensitivity on the elementary ηN N coupling. Our analysis results in a pseudoscalar ηN N coupling with a coupling constant of g ηN N 2 /4π=0.4. Furthermore, we also study coincidence cross sections for eta electroproduction and present calculations for structure functions and kinematical conditions that are most sensitive to the S 11(1535) and the D 13(1520) resonances. Finally, we show results on the inclusive eta photoproduction off complex nuclei with a very good agreement with r…

A Modular Formal Total Synthesis of (±)-Cycloclavine
2016
Cycloclavine is a clavine-type Ergot alkaloid noteworthy for its unique pentacyclic skeleton featuring a 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane substructure. A short convergent route to the racemic alkaloid is described which comprises only eight linear steps and requires only four chromatographic purifications. The two key building blocks can be prepared in high yield from commercially available starting materials. Two consecutive coupling reactions, namely a selective alkylation of a dienolate and a Heck reaction, are the key steps of the reaction sequence.
Limit on the production of a light vector gauge boson in $\phi $ mesondecays with the KLOE detector
2012
We present a new limit on the production of a light dark-force mediator with the KLOE detector at DAPHNE. This boson, called U, has been searched for in the decay phi --> eta U, U --> e+ e-, analyzing the decay eta --> pi0 pi0 pi0 in a data sample of 1.7 fb-1. No structures are observed in the e+e- invariant mass distribution over the background. This search is combined with a previous result obtained from the decay eta --> pi+ pi- pi0, increasing the sensitivity. We set an upper limit at 90% C.L. on the ratio between the U boson coupling constant and the fine structure constant of alpha'/alpha < 1.7x10^-5 for 30<M_U<400 MeV and alpha'/alpha < 8x10^-6 for the sub-region 50<M_U<210 MeV. This…
Effective pseudopotential for energy density functionals with higher-order derivatives
2011
We derive a zero-range pseudopotential that includes all possible terms up to sixth order in derivatives. Within the Hartree-Fock approximation, it gives the average energy that corresponds to a quasi-local nuclear Energy Density Functional (EDF) built of derivatives of the one-body density matrix up to sixth order. The direct reference of the EDF to the pseudopotential acts as a constraint that divides the number of independent coupling constants of the EDF by two. This allows, e.g., for expressing the isovector part of the functional in terms of the isoscalar part, or vice versa. We also derive the analogous set of constraints for the coupling constants of the EDF that is restricted by sp…
Catalytic Efficiency of a New Tridentate Ferrocenyl Phosphine Auxiliary: Sonogashira Cross-Coupling Reactions of Alkynes with Aryl Bromides and Chlor…
2005
[structure: see text] The catalytic activity in Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions of alkynes with a variety of aryl halides (including chlorides) using a multidentate ferrocenyl phosphine is presented. The novel mixed ferrocenyl aryl/alkyl triphosphine is thermally stable and insensitive to air or moisture, and its robustness allows aryl alkynylation at 10(-1) to 10(-4) mol % catalyst loadings with TONs up to 250,000. Copper-free coupling using phenylacetylene is also accessible in good yield.
Dehydrogenative Anodic C−C Coupling of Phenols Bearing Electron‐Withdrawing Groups
2019
Abstract We herein present a metal‐free, electrosynthetic method that enables the direct dehydrogenative coupling reactions of phenols carrying electron‐withdrawing groups for the first time. The reactions are easy to conduct and scalable, as they are carried out in undivided cells and obviate the necessity for additional supporting electrolyte. As such, this conversion is efficient, practical, and thereby environmentally friendly, as production of waste is minimized. The method features a broad substrate scope, and a variety of functional groups are tolerated, providing easy access to precursors for novel polydentate ligands and even heterocycles such as dibenzofurans.
Stereoselective Synthesis of Chiral Piperidine Derivatives Employing Arabinopyranosylamine as the Carbohydrate Auxiliary.
2006
Stereoselective synthesis of 2-substituted dehydropiperidinones and their further transformation to variously disubstituted piperidine derivatives was achieved employing D-arabinopyranosylamine as the stereodifferentiating carbohydrate auxiliary. A domino MannichMichael reaction of 1-methoxy-3-(trimethylsiloxy)butadiene (Danishefsky's diene) with O-pivaloylated arbinosylaldimines furnished N-arabinosyl dehydropiperidinones in high diastereoselectivity. Subsequent conjugate cuprate addition gave 2,6-cis-substituted piperidinones, while enolate alkylation furnished 2,3-trans-substituted dehydropiperidinones. Electrophilic substitution at the enamine structure afforded 5-nitro- and 5-halogen…
A Homoleptic Alkynyl‐Ligated [Au 13 Ag 16 L 24 ] 3− Cluster as a Catalytically Active Eight‐Electron Superatom
2020
A new alkynylated cluster [Au13 Ag16 (C10 H6 NO)24 ]3- is prepared by a NaBH4 mediated reduction method. The AuAg clusters are confirmed by sophisticated characterization techniques. It has a unique "Aucenter @Ag12 @Au12 Ag4 " metal framework which is protected by 24 atypical alkyne ligands L (L=C10 H6 NO). The ligands construct a unique type of motif L-(Ag)-Au-(Ag)-L at the cluster interface, where the alkyne (C≡C) group of each L was linked by sharing an Au atom through the σ bonds and each C≡C group was discretely connected to a chemically different Ag atom (Agicosahedral /Agcap ) through π bonds. The electronic and optical properties of [Au13 Ag16 L24 ]3- were studied. DFT characterized…
