We present a spectroscopic investigation of the excited-state dynamics of the phenylalanine (Phe)/serine (Ser) protonated dimer in the gas phase. Using an ultraviolet (UV) laser pulse, we promote individual isomers to the S1 state and probe their fate with ...
We report seven heteroleptic cationic iridium(III) complexes with cyclometalating N-arylazoles and alkyl/aryl isocyanides, ((CN)-N-boolean AND)(2)Ir(CNR)(2), and characterize two of them by crystal structure analysis. The complexes are air- and m ...
Butene hydrogenation activity is intimately connected with the occupied and unoccupied electronic states of gold active site. We prepare well-defined Au(III) sites in IRMOF-3 structure, and tuned the metal density-of-states by replacing the substituent gro ...
Pd(II)-catalyzed double cyclization of 1,2-diarylethynes bearing an N-methyl-N-[2-(methoxycarbonyl)ethyl]amino and an aminocarbonyl group at the ortho positions of the two aromatic rings afforded the tetracyclic N-[2-(methoxycarbonyl)-ethyl]indoloisoquinol ...
Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is used to measure the functional group composition of organic aerosols (Russell et al., 2011). However, certain functional groups are not directly detected by FTIR spectroscopy, either due to fundamental limi ...
1,3-dipolar cycloaddition is a powerful route for the synthesis of five-membered heterocycles. The [3+2] cycloadditions of some alpha-methylene-gamma-buryrolactones, namely 3-methylenedihydro-(3H)-furan-2-one (1) and itaconic anhydride (2) were Studied. Th ...
Conformational transitions have found broad interest due to their impact on protein misfolding and self-assembly as key events leading to the development of neurodegenerative diseases. However, investigation of these dynamic events has been limited so far ...
The present invention concerns an intermediate of the following formula I in which R 1 and R 2 represent independently of each other a C 1 -C 12 alkyl group, a (C 1 -C 12 alkoxy)carbonyl group, optionally substituted by one, two or three halogen atom, a (C ...
A zeolite membrane fabrication process combining 2D-zeolite nanosheet seeding and gel-free secondary growth is described. This process produces selective molecular sieve films that are as thin as 100 nm and exhibit record high permeances for xylene- and bu ...
The reaction of the anilines RNH2 [R = C6H4(o-CN), C6H4(p-CN), C6H4(m-CN), C6H4(o-C6H5), C6F5 and C6H4(o-CF3)] with Ph2PCl and inorganic or organic bases in differing stoichiometry and in different solvents has been studied. The electronic properties and s ...
