Investigation of Carboxylic Acid Isosteres and Prodrugs for Inhibition of the Human SIRT5 Lysine Deacylase Enzyme

Alexander Lund Nielsen

Sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) is a protein lysine deacylase enzyme that regulates diverse biology by hydrolyzing epsilon-N-carboxyacyllysine posttranslational modifications in the cell. Inhibition of SIRT5 has been linked to potential treatment of several cancers but ...

SET processes in Lewis acid–base reactions: the tritylation of N-heterocyclic carbenes

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Cristian Pezzato, Zhaowen Dong

Reactions between N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and the trityl cation, [Ph3C]+, give covalent adducts of type [NHC–CPh3]+ and/or [NHC–C6H5–CPh2]+. EPR spectroscopy, UV-Vis analyses, and trapping experiments imply that adduct formation involves carbene rad ...

In Situ Biostimulation of Cr(VI) Reduction in a Fast-Flowing Oxic Aquifer

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Daniel Scott Alessi

Hexavalent chromium is among the most common and hazardous inorganic contaminants in soils and groundwater. A promising in situ bioremediation approach is the delivery of electron donors to stimulate microbially mediated Cr(VI) reduction, producing relativ ...

Carbohydrate stabilization extends the kinetic limits of chemical polysaccharide depolymerization

Jeremy Luterbacher, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago, Raquel Zambrano Varela

Polysaccharide depolymerization is an essential step for valorizing lignocellulosic biomass. In inexpensive systems such as pure water or dilute acid mixtures, carbohydrate monomer degradation rates exceed hemicellulose—and especially cellulose—depolymeriz ...

IrOOH nanosheets as acid stable electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction

Filip Mateusz Podjaski

In solids, heterogeneous catalysis is inherently bound to reactions on the surface. Yet, atomically efficient preparation of specific surfaces and the characterization of their properties are impeding its applications towards a clean energy future. Here, w ...

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 ...

Applicability of a recently proposed tribocorrosion model to CoCr alloys with different carbides content

Marco Cantoni, Stefano Mischler, Shoufan Cao

Existing sliding tribocorrosion models have been developed for homogeneous passive metals such as stainless steel and pure metals. Many technical alloys contains however second phases, usually much harder than the metallic matrix, intended to provide bette ...

Degradation of the Cu Residual Resistivity Ratio in Cr-Plated Composite Nb3Sn Wires

Marco Cantoni, Barbora Bártová, Luca Bottura

Some of the bronze-route Nb3Sn wires produced for the ITER toroidal field magnets have values of the Cu residual resistivity ratio (RRR) lower than the specification (RRR > 100) when reacted with the longest ITER heat treatment cycle (cycle A: high-tempera ...

Peracetic Acid Oxidation of Saline Waters in the Absence and Presence of H2O2: Secondary Oxidant and Disinfection Byproduct Formation

Urs von Gunten

Peracetic acid (PAA) is a disinfectant considered for use in ballast water treatment, but its chemical behavior in such systems (i.e., saline waters) is largely unknown. In this study, the reactivity of PAA with halide ions (chloride and bromide) to form s ...

Lignin monomer production integrated into the γ-valerolactone sugar platform

Jeremy Luterbacher

We demonstrate an experimental approach for upgrading lignin that has been isolated from corn stover via biomass fractionation using c-valerolactone (GVL) as a solvent. This GVL-based approach can be used in parallel with lignin upgrading to produce solubl ...
