Starting from the readily available meso-methylenedi(8-oxa-3-oxobicyclo[3.2.1]hept-6-en-1-yl) (1), meso-1,1'-methylidene [(4R,4'S,6R,6'S)-4,6-dioxycyclohept-1-en-1-yl]tetrasilylethers (7, 8) were obtained and transformed into all-syn 1,3,5,11,13,15-hexahyd ...
The reaction of tetranitromethane with B-alkylcatecholboranes leads to the formation of unusual dinitrooxime ethers. A tentative mechanism is provided, which suggests the involvement of extremely fast addition of alkyl radicals to tetranitromethane. The su ...
Multicomponent chemosensors were prepared by mixing the rhodium(III) complex [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl 2]2, nickel(II) chloride and/or copper(II) chloride with commercially available dyes in buffered aqueous solution. The sensors were used to detect various biomolec ...
Embodiments include a vehicle for delivery of nitric oxide comprising: a collection of micelles having an internal micelle core that comprises a polymer with N-diazeniumdiolate comprising NO complexed with secondary amines of the polymer. Embodiments inclu ...
A series of poly(ethylene glycol-co-isopropylidene glyceryl glycidyl ether) (P(EO-co-IGG)) random copolymers with different fractions of 1,2-isopropylidene glyceryl glycidyl ether (IGG) units was synthesized. After acidic hydrolysis a new type of "function ...
Novel and surprising biological properties were disclosed for the platinum(II) complex cis-diiodidodiisopropylamineplatinum(II). Remarkably this new platinum(II) complex manifests pronounced antiproliferative properties in vitro, in some cases superior to ...
Several hydrophobic long-chain quaternary ammonium and phosphonium ionic liquids (ILs) with functionalized aromatic anions were prepared following a metathesis route using tricaprylmethylammonium chloride (Aliquat 336) and trihexyl(tetradecyl) phosphonium ...
This manuscript reports on the post-polymerization modification of poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) and PGMA-co-poly(2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PGMA(x)-co-PDEAEMA(y)) (co)polymer brushes prepared via surface-initiated atom transfer radical poly ...
Hot alkyne! The in situ generation of Ethynyl-1,2-BenziodoXol-3(1H)-one (EBX) from the corresponding silyl protected reagent using TBAF is reported. EBX displayed exceptional acetylene transfer ability to stabilized enolates, even at –78 °C. The mild react ...
3'-Alkyl-3-cyanomethyloxindoles, prepd. by a palladium-catalyzed domino Heck/cyanation, were efficiently converted to spiropyrrolidinyl-, spiropiperidinyl- and spirocyclopropyl-oxindoles. The so-obtained spirooxindoles bearing three diversity points were f ...
