Nanoscaled particles showing superparamagnetic behavior have been intensively studied in the past years for various applications. Nevertheless, the lack of well-defined particles remains an important problem. One of the major challenges is still the large- ...
Enantiomerically pure (-)-(1R,4R,5R,6S)- and (+)-(1S,4S,5S,6R)-7-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-5,6-exo-isopropylidenedioxy-7- azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-one ((-)-3 and (+)-3) have been obtained from the Diels-Alder adduct of N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)pyrrole and 2-bromo ...
This paper presents the results of a method to produce autonomous animation of virtual humans. In particular, the proposed methodology is focused on the autonomous synthesis of nonvoluntary gestures such as reflexes and subtle movements which provide a not ...
Methods for the synthesis of dihydroazaphenanthrene fused to macrocycles I [X = CH2, O, Y = (CH2)m, m = 1,2,4,6, n = 1,2] and medium-ring heterocycles II (R1 = H, Me, CH2Ph, etc., R2 = Me, n-Bu, CH2Ph, etc.) as well as 1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-diones, e.g. I ...
A two-step sequence involving an Ugi four-component reaction and an intramol. nucleophilic arom. substitution (SNAr) has been developed for the rapid access to biaryl-ether contg. macrocycles. For example, reacting heptanal with butylamine, (3-hydroxypheny ...
An on-resin Ugi four-component reaction followed by an intramol. nucleophilic arom. substitution (SNAr) has been developed for the rapid access to biaryl-ether contg. macrocycles. Supported isocyanide was prepd. and used together with heptanal, butylamine, ...
ZSM-5 zeolites were prepared at neutral pH by fluoride-mediated synthesis. The degree of crystallinity, the specific surface area and the crystal size are higher than those of the zeolites prepared under alkaline conditions. Moreover, by varying the F/Si r ...
This paper presents a fingerprinting method based on equivalence classes. An equivalence class is composed of a reference image and all its variations (or replicas). For each reference image, a decision function is built. The latter determines if a given i ...
A multiphase-field model for the description of coalescence in a binary alloy is solved numerically using adaptive finite elements with high aspect ratio. The unknown of the multiphase-field model are the three phase fields (solid phase 1, solid phase 2, a ...
Syntheses of (-)-deoxoprosophylline from chiral L-N,N-di(benzyl)serine (TBDMS) aldehyde is reported. A highly diastereoselective nucleophilic addn. of Buechi's Grignard reagent to chiral serinal followed by an intramol. reductive amination of w-oxo amino d ...
