Propargyl radical addition to 1,3-butadiene seems to be a promising channel to form 5-, 6-, and 7-membered rings. These are important steps in the growth of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and soot platelets. The reaction mechanism, involving 97 intermedi ...
A reaction of 2-acyl substituted tetrahydroquinolines, prepared by Lewis acid-catalyzed three-component reaction of α-oxo aldehydes, anilines, and dienophiles, with in situ generated arynes afforded 5,6-dihydroindolo[1,2-a]- quinolines in good to excellent ...
Tandem reactions for the efficient synthesis of multifunctionalized 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridines, 2,3-dihydropyridin-4(1H)-ones, and pyridine derivatives have been developed and reaction mechanisms have been investigated. Synthetic cascades are initiated by ...
The mechanism of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at a liquid|liquid interface, employing ferrocene (Fc) derivatives – such as decamethylferrocene (DMFc) – as a lipophilic electron donor along with sulfuric acid as an aqueous proton source, was elucidat ...
Water oxidation is a key chemical reaction, central to both biological photosynthesis and artificial solar fuel synthesis strategies. Despite recent progress on the structure of the natural catalytic site, and on inorganic catalyst function, determining th ...
The intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction has been used as a powerful method to access the tricyclic core of the eunicellin natural products from a number of 9-membered-ring precursors. The endo/exo selectivity of this reaction can be controlled through a re ...
A reversible, reaction-based sensor for biol. mobile zinc was designed, prepd., and characterized. The sensing mechanism of this probe is based on the zinc-induced, ring-opening reaction of spirobenzopyran to give a cyanine fluorophore that emits in the de ...
The regioselective and diastereoselective cyclization of acyliminium intermediates generated from aminocyclopropanes on unprotected indoles is presented. The recent results obtained in our group are compared with previous intermolecular reactions with amin ...
Chemical reactions are always associated with electronic structure changes of the involved chemical species. Determining the electronic configuration of an atom allows probing its chemical state and gives understanding of the reaction pathways. However, of ...
Single-mol. fluorescent microscopy allows semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) to detect the adsorption and desorption of single adsorbate mols. as a stochastic modulation of emission intensity. In this study, we identify and assign the s ...
