In depth analysis of heterogeneous catalysts for the chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution of beta-amino esters

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Cédric Karel J Van Goethem

The chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution of beta-amino esters is established after detailed evaluation of metal-based heterogeneous catalysts for racemization and enzyme catalysts for kinetic resolution. Several heterogeneous palladium catalysts prove ...

A Strategy to Conjugate Bioactive Fragments to Cytotoxic Diiron Bis(cyclopentadienyl) Complexes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Mouna Hadiji, Silvia Schoch, Sarah Alexandra Pais Pereira

A series of bioactive molecules were synthesized from the condensation of aspirin or chlorambucil with terminal alkynes bearing alcohol or amine substituents. Insertion of the resulting alkynes into the iron-carbyne bond of readily accessible diiron bis(cy ...

Copper-Catalyzed Cyanoalkylative Aziridination of N-Sulfonyl Allylamines

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Minh Tu Ha, Weisi Guo

Reaction of N-arylsulfonyl allylamines with alkyl nitriles in the presence of di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) and a catalytic amount of copper salt afforded homologated aziridines in 43-86% yield. A sequence involving addition of the in situ generated cyanom ...

Revealing the Mechanism of Doping of spiro-MeOTAD via Zn Complexation in the Absence of Oxygen and Light

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Yasemin Saygili, Hui-Seon Kim, Bowen Yang, Jiajia Suo

In this study, a new mechanism for doping of spiro-MeOTAD by Zn(TFSI)(2) is revealed, which is completely different from the mechanism induced by LiTFSI. The oxidation of spiro-MeOTAD is facilitated by complexation between the zinc cation and tert-butylpyr ...

Euclid: Reconstruction of weak-lensing mass maps for non-Gaussianity studies

Georges Meylan, Yi Wang, Richard Massey

Weak lensing, which is the deflection of light by matter along the line of sight, has proven to be an efficient method for constraining models of structure formation and reveal the nature of dark energy. So far, most weak-lensing studies have focused on th ...

Development of Catalytic Asymmetric C-H Functionalizations with Chiral Cyclopentadienyl Iridium(III) Complexes

Yun-Suk Jang

Cp*Ir(III) catalyzed C-H functionalization is a growing field, since it provides novel complementary reactivities, but enantioselective C-H functionalization reactions with this metal remain a niche. This thesis investigates CpXIr(III) catalyzed asymmetric ...

Photoregulated fluxional fluorophores for live-cell super-resolution microscopy with no apparent photobleaching

Pablo Rivera Fuentes

Photoswitchable mols. have multiple applications in the phys. and life sciences because their properties can be modulated with light. Fluxional mols., which undergo rapid degenerate rearrangements in the electronic ground state, also exhibit switching beha ...

Developing Reactions of Strained Rings

Daniele Perrotta

Carbo- and heterocyclic structures containing nitrogen-substituted stereocenters are recurrent structural motifs in natural and bioactive compounds, therefore constituting a privileged class of synthetic targets. In this regard, substituted three- and four ...

Self-formation of hexagonal nanotemplates for growth of pyramidal quantum dots by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy on patterned substrates

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Benjamin Dwir, Romain Carron, Pascal Gallo, Alessandro Surrente

We demonstrate the self-formation of hexagonal nanotemplates on GaAs (111)B substrates patterned with arrays of inverted tetrahedral pyramids during metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy and its role in producing high-symmetry, site-controlled quantum dots (QD ...
