Synthetic chemistry with nitrous oxide and triazenes

Nitrous oxide (N2O) has gained much interest because of its physiological effects ("laughing gas") and its negative environmental impact ("greenhouse gas", "ozone-depleting substance"): It has a lifetime of more than 100 years in the atmosphere. Its persis ...

Multiphase processes in the EC-Earth model and their relevance to the atmospheric oxalate, sulfate, and iron cycles

Athanasios Nenes

Understanding how multiphase processes affect the iron-containing aerosol cycle is key to predicting ocean biogeochemistry changes and hence the feedback effects on climate. For this work, the EC-Earth Earth system model in its climate-chemistry configurat ...

Hydrothermally Stable Sulfonated Carbons as Solid Acid Catalysts for the Hydrolysis of Lignocellulose

David Ferdinand Scholz

The recycling of homogeneous acids imposes great challenges to the feasibility of lignocellulose hydrolysis processes. Although heterogeneous catalysts would offer a perspective to circumvent these challenges, conventional solid acids are instable under th ...

Characterization of aerosol composition, aerosol acidity, and organic acid partitioning at an agriculturally intensive rural southeastern US site

Athanasios Nenes, Yixing Chen, Hairun Guo

The implementation of stringent emission regulations has resulted in the decline of anthropogenic pollutants including sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NO x), and carbon monoxide (CO). In contrast, ammonia (NH3) emissions are largely unregulated, wit ...

Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 Catalyzed by Metal Oxides

Yeonji Oh

A rapidly growing population and industrialization have caused the exploitation of natural resources in keeping with fossil fuels shortage. Due to the combustion of fossil fuels, the concentration of CO2 in the earth's atmosphere, which is a potent greenho ...

Extended Bottom-Up Proteomics with Secreted Aspartic Protease Sap9

Yury Tsybin, Kristina Srzentic, Unige Anna Laskay

We investigate the benefits and experimental feasibility of approaches enabling the shift from short (1.7 kDa on average) peptides in bottom-up proteomics to about twice longer (similar to 3.2 kDa on average) peptides in the so-called extended bottom-up pr ...

Synthesis of Iminonitriles by Oxone/TBAB-Mediated One-Pot Oxidative Three-Component Strecker Reaction

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Jean-Baptiste Gualtierotti, Xavier Schumacher

Oxidative three-component reaction of aldehydes, amines, and TMSCN in a biphasic solvent system (toluene/H2O) containing Oxone, tetra-n-butylammonium bromide (TBAB) and sodium bicarbonate afforded α-iminonitriles in good to excellent yields. This oxidative ...

Amidation of Aldehydes and Alcohols through α-Iminonitriles and a Sequential Oxidative Three-Component Strecker Reaction/Thio-Michael Addition/Alumina-Promoted Hydrolysis Process to Access β-Mercaptoamides from Aldehydes, Amines, and Thiols

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Jean-Baptiste Gualtierotti, Xavier Schumacher

Mild and general alumina promoted hydrolysis conditions for converting α-iminonitriles into carboxamides have been developed. In combination with the oxidative three-component Strecker reaction, the one-pot direct amidation of aldehydes and alcohols is rep ...

Built-in 5-Aminooxazole as an Internal Activator of the Terminal Carboxylic Acid: An Alternative Access to Macrocyclodepsipeptides

Jieping Zhu

A conceptually novel macrolactonization technology is described. A strategically positioned 5-aminooxazole served as an internal traceless activator of the neighboring C-terminal carboxylic acid allowing the occurrence of macrolactonization under mild acid ...
