The present work shows that the electrochemical properties of electrospray ionization (ESI) can be used to add functions to the process. As example, we show how the choice of the electrode material can be used to study interactions between metal ions and b ...
By addn. of an enantiomerically pure nitrile oxide to C70, four chiral isoxazolo[70]fullerene isomers were prepd. and isolated in pure state: two constitutional isomers resulting from addn. to one of the bonds radiating from the polar pentagons, and a cons ...
Syntheses of (-)-deoxoprosophylline from chiral L-N,N-di(benzyl)serine (TBDMS) aldehyde is reported. A highly diastereoselective nucleophilic addn. of Buechi's Grignard reagent to chiral serinal followed by an intramol. reductive amination of w-oxo amino d ...
A no. of promising synthetic catalysts for the hydrolytic degrdn. of RNA have been developed in recent years. Some of them show remarkable selectivity for pyrimidine nucleotides. The general problem of all these studies is to distinguish between real effec ...
As different text input devices lead to different typing error patterns, considering the device characteristics when designing an error correction mechanism can lead to significantly improved results. In this paper, we propose and evaluate a spelling algor ...
The diastereoselective synthesis of chiral coordination compounds with d metals proved the effectiveness of the pinene-bipyridine approach in predetermining the chirality at the metal centre. The strong Lewis acidic character of lanthanide cations required ...
The Bingel addn. of a trimalonate derived from a chiral, cyclotriveratrylene (CTV)-based tripodal tether to C60 was reinvestigated. The present use of enantiomerically pure (P)- and (M)-configured CTV units in the tether allowed the isolation of a total of ...
Enantioselective rhodium(I)-catalyzed reactions of tert-cyclobutanols, e.g. I, lead to indanones with quaternary stereogenic centers, e.g. II, via consecutive C-C/C-H/C-C bond activations. ...
The synthesis and molecular structure of a Pb-Mg bimetallic acetatoalkoxide (Pb-6,Mg-12( mu-OAc)(6)(mu(2), eta(2)-OAc)(18)(mu(3), eta(2)-OC2H4OPr1)(12), space group R-3, a = b = 30.032(2), c = 18.855(2) Angstrom, alpha = beta = 90degrees, gamma = 120degree ...
We present investigations on noncovalent bonding and supramolecular self-assembly of two related molecular building blocks at a noble metal surface: 4-[trans-2-(pyrid-4-yl-vinyl)]benzoic acid (PVBA) and 4-[(pyrid-4-yl-ethynyl)]benzoic acid (PEBA). These ri ...
