Occurrence of priority pollutants in WWTP effluents and Mediterranean coastal waters of Spain

2011

A comprehensive study aimed at evaluating the occurrence, significance of concentrations and spatial distribution of priority pollutants (PPs) along the Comunidad Valenciana coastal waters (Spain) was carried out in order to fulfil the European Water Framework Directive (WFD). Additionally, PP concentrations were also analysed in the effluent of 28 WWTPs distributed along the studied area. In coastal waters 36 organic pollutants of the 71 analysed, including 26 PPs were detected although many of them with low frequency of occurrence. Only 13 compounds, which belong to four different classes (VOCs, organochlorinated pesticides, phthalates and tributyltin compounds (TBT)) showed a frequency o…

Muscle Function Differences between Patients with Bulbar and Spinal Onset Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. Does It Depend on Peripheral Glucose?

2021

Background: One of the pathogenic mechanisms of ALS disease is perturbed energy metabolism particularly glucose metabolism. Given the substantial difference in the severity and the prognosis of the disease, depending on whether it has a bulbar or spinal onset, the aim of the study was to determine metabolic differences between both types of ALS, as well as the possible relationship with muscle function. Materials and Methods: A descriptive, analytical, quantitative, and transversal study was carried out in hospitals and Primary Care centers in the region of Valencia, Spain. Fasting glucose and alkaline phosphatase (AP) levels in venous blood, muscle percentage, fat percentage, muscle streng…

Selective isomerization of a trans -butanediacetal derivative of tartaric acid with differentiating substituents at C-2 and C-3

2017

Abstract A trans-disubstituted butanediacetal derivative with two different substituents (ester and thioester) – methyl (2R,3R,5R,6R)-3-ethylsulfanylcarbonyl-5,6-dimethoxy-5,6-dimethyl-1,4-dioxane-2-carboxylate, was selectively converted to the cis derivative – methyl (2S,3R,5R,6R)-3-ethylsulfanylcarbonyl-5,6-dimethoxy-5,6-dimethyl-1,4-dioxane-2-carboxylate in high yield on a multigram scale. The product of this reaction offers the possibility for selective modification of one of the substituents, which was demonstrated by Fukuyama reduction of the thioester group.

The Catalytic Mechanism of Carboxylesterases: A Computational Study

2014

The catalytic mechanism of carboxylesterases (CEs, EC 3.1.1.1) is explored by computational means. CEs hydrolyze ester, amide, and carbamate bonds found in xenobiotics and endobiotics. They can also perform transesterification, a reaction important, for instance, in cholesterol homeostasis. The catalytic mechanisms with three different substrates (ester, thioester, and amide) have been established at the M06-2X/6-311++G**//B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory. It was found that the reactions proceed through a mechanism involving four steps instead of two as is generally proposed: (i) nucleophilic attack of serine to the substrate, forming the first tetrahedral intermediate, (ii) formation of the ac…

Thioester-functionalised and oxime-based hexametallic manganese(iii) single-molecule magnets

2017

Two novel hexametallic MnIII complexes of formulae [Mn6(μ3-O)2(H2N-sao)6(3-atpa)2(EtOH)6]·2EtOH·2H2O (1) and [Mn6(μ3-O)2(H2N-sao)6(6-atha)2(EtOH)6]·6EtOH (2) [H2N-saoH2 = salicylamidoxime, 3-hatpa = 3-(acetylthio)propionic acid, 6-hatha = 6-(acetylthio)hexanoic acid] have been synthesised by using thioester-carboxylate ligands and magnetostructurally characterised. 1 crystallises in the triclinic system with space group P and 2 crystallises in the monoclinic system with space group P21/c. The study of the dc and ac magnetic susceptibility reveals single-molecule magnet behaviour for both compounds with spin-ground states S = 12 and S = 4 for 1 and 2, respectively. Hence, 1 and 2 are new mem…

Stereoselective reactions of a thioester butanediacetal with various electrophiles

2014

Abstract The reactions of the lithium enolate of S -ethyl (2 R ,5 R ,6 R )-5,6-dimethoxy-5,6-dimethyl-[1,4]-dioxane-2-carbothioate were investigated in the presence or absence of hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA). Fluorination gave a single isomer with a much better yield than for the corresponding methyl ester. Alkylation with alkyl halides strongly depended upon their structure. Without HMPA, only methyl iodide reacted with moderate yield and gave a single isomer. In the presence of HMPA, all of the alkyl halides reacted almost quantitatively (81–98% yield) with moderate stereoselectivity and preferentially gave products with the alkyl chain attached at the equatorial position. The silyl eno…

Cirugía mínimamente invasiva en craneoestenosis

2006

En el presente trabajo se describe la experiencia en craneoestenosis con cirugía mínimamente invasiva, evaluando el diseño y eficacia de un nuevo craneotomo en cadáveres así como su aplicación clínica en un caso de sinostósis sagital con instrumentación endoscópica. Este procedimiento es sin duda un gran recurso en el tratamiento de las craneoestenosis brindando los beneficios de la cirugía mínimamente invasiva, eliminando la necesidad de grandes incisiones, disminuyendo el sangrado quirúrgico, reduciendo estancia hospitalaria y disminuyendo la morbilidad operatoria

Tehokkuuden subjektiivinen konstruointi julkishallinnon työntekijöiden puheessa – organisaatioestetiikka viitekehyksenä

2020

This study examines the employees’ everyday experiences at work. The goal is to encourage the emancipation from the limitations of rationality cultivating an aesthetic understanding of organizations. It seeks to answer how organization members construct their experiences of efficiency based on the dualism between aesthetic and rationality and how are these constructions related. This study also seeks to ansewer what kind of dynamics discourses on effectiviness deliver and maintain. The empirical data is obtained by interviews with public sector employees and interpreted using deconstructive analysis presented by David Boje. Based on the research interviews the strong reliance on rationality…
