Stereoselective glycosylation of Alcohols and Silyl Ethers Using Glycosyl Fluorides and Boron Trifluoride Etherate
1985
The stereoselective glycosylation of alcohols and their silyl ethers has been achieved using O-alkyl-, O-acyl-, and acetal-protected glycosyl fluorides of the pyranose and furanose series and boron trifluoride etherate in CH2Cl2.

Treatment of chiral isoxazoles with catalytic amounts of DBU results in efficient formation of optically active β-hydroxynitriles.
Insect oviposition induces volatile emission in herbaceous plants that attracts egg parasitoid
2003
SUMMARYThe egg parasitoid Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston) (Hymenoptera:Scelionidae) responded to synomones emitted by leguminous plants induced by feeding and oviposition activity of the bug Nezara viridula (L.)(Heteroptera: Pentatomidae). This was shown by laboratory bioassays using a Y-tube olfactometer. Broad bean leaves (Vicia faba L.) damaged by feeding activity of N. viridula and on which host egg mass had been laid produced synomones that attracted T. basalis. By contrast,undamaged leaves or feeding-damaged leaves without eggs did not attract wasp females. French bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) also emitted attractive synomones when they were damaged by host feeding and carrying e…
Interface model for the nonlinear analysis of blocky structures of ancient Greek temples
2010
The presence of singularity surfaces with reference to the displacement field is a characteristic of a number of structural systems. Strong discontinuities are present in old masonry structures where dry joints connect the blocks or the mortar ageing suggests to neglect the adhesion properties. These structures cannot be considered a continuum but rather an assembly of blocks. These discontinuous structures could be modelled as an assembly of blocks interacting trough frictional joints whose mechanical behaviour is described by appropriate interface laws. In the present work an interface model present in literature is adopted, the double asperity model, which has been implemented in a stand…

Pharmacokinetics of Intravitreal Anti-VEGF Drugs in Age-Related Macular Degeneration
2019
Intravitreal administration of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibodies has become the standard treatment for Age-Related Macular Degeneration; however, the knowledge of their pharmacokinetics is limited. A comprehensive review of the preclinical and clinical pharmacokinetic data that were obtained in different studies with intravitreal bevacizumab, ranibizumab, and aflibercept has been conducted. Moreover, the factors that can influence the vitreous pharmacokinetics of these drugs, as well as the methods that were used in the studies for analytical determination, have been exposed. These anti-VEGF drugs present different charge and molecular weights, which play an importan…
Nuevos materiales moleculares de hierro(II) multipropiedad basados en el fenómeno de transición de espín
2017
En esta Tesis Doctoral se presenta la síntesis y caracterización de una serie de materiales multifuncionales de FeII que tienen como denominador común el fenómeno de transición de espín (TS). El objetivo general es investigar sinergias entre la TS y otra propiedad fisicoquímica mediante el estudio de su estructura molecular y sus propiedades magnéticas y calorimétricas, entre otras. En el Capítulo Uno se exponen los conceptos más relevantes del fenómeno TS en el cual los centros TS experimentan una conversión de espín HS↔LS (HS: estado de espín alto, LS: estado de espín bajo) en respuesta a un estímulo externo tal como temperatura, presión, luz o la presencia de analitos. En particular, una…
Interaction between the endangered freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera, the duck mussel Anodonta anatina and the fish host (Salmo) : …
2018
The common duck mussel Anodonta anatina can live in sympatry with—and use the same host, brown trout (Salmo trutta)—as the endangered freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera. Since the glochidia release of A. anatina takes place seasonally earlier than that of M. margaritifera, brown trout can be sequentially exposed first to A. anatina and then to M. margaritifera. Cross-immunity, an immune reaction induced in fish host against glochidia after the infection with glochidia of another mussel species, is possible. Thus, it was studied experimentally if brown trout can be cross immunized against M. margaritifera by earlier infection with A. anatina. In addition, the hypothesis that…
Spectral analysis and quantum chaos in two-dimensional nanostructures
2015
This thesis describes a study into the eigenvalues and eigenstates of twodimensional (2D) quantum systems. The research is summarized in four scientific publications by the author. The underlying motivation for this work is the grand question of quantum chaos: how does chaos, as known in classical mechanics, manifest in quantum mechanics? The search and analysis of these quantum fingerprints of chaos requires efficient numerical tools and methods, the development of which is given a special emphasis in this thesis. The first publication in this thesis concerns the eigenspectrum analysis of a nanoscale device. It is shown that a measured addition energy spectrum can be explained by a simple …
