Our society is engaged in a major shift towards more sustainable industries. The required transition from fossils to renewable resources with low greenhouse gas emission is specifically challenging in the transportation sector where high thermal efficiency ...
A new target in AIDS therapy development is HIV-1 integrase (IN). It was proven that HIV-1 IN required divalent metal cations to achieve phosphodiester bond cleavage of DNA. Accordingly, all newly investigated potent IN inhibitors contain chemical fragment ...
A deprotonation study was performed using 2,3,5-trichloropyridine, 3,5-dichloro-2-fluoropyridine, and 5-chloro-2,3-difluoropyridine as the substrates. Upon reaction with lithium diisopropylamide (LDA), deprotonation occurred exclusively at the 4-position. ...
The recycling of homogeneous acids imposes great challenges to the feasibility of lignocellulose hydrolysis processes. Although heterogeneous catalysts would offer a perspective to circumvent these challenges, conventional solid acids are instable under th ...
The deactivation pathways of sulfonated carbon catalysts prepared from different carbons were studied during the aqueous‐phase hydrolysis of cellobiose under continuous‐flow conditions. The sulfonation of carbon materials with a low degree of graphitizatio ...
The structure of the title compound, [La(C5H6O4)(C5H7O4)(H2O)] . H2O, consists of dense layers formed by chains of one-edge-sharing LaO9 (H2O) polyhedra, linked together by the glutarate ligand. The three-dimensional polymeric structure, built up through c ...
As a further test of the concept of regioexhaustive functionalization, 2-chloro-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, 2-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine and 3-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine were each converted into the three possible carboxylic acids. This wa ...
Thescalable synthesis of high-temperature H-2-sieving membranesfor energy-efficient carbon capture can potentiallyenable the implementation of precombustion carbon capture at a rapidpace. Synthesis of H-2-sieving membranes for high-temperatureapplications ...
The deactivation pathways of sulfonated carbon catalysts prepared from different carbons were studied during the aqueous‐phase hydrolysis of cellobiose under continuous‐flow conditions. The sulfonation of carbon materials with a low degree of graphitizatio ...
The homogeneous catalytic system, based on water-soluble ruthenium(II)– TPPTS catalyst (TPPTS = meta-trisulfonated triphenylphosphine), selectively decomposes HCOOH into H2 and CO2 in aqueous solution. Although this reaction results in only two gas product ...
