Basic Functionalization of Hexagonal Mesoporous Silica

Recently, a novel method of modification, i.e., functionalizing the internal surface of mesoporous materials has been reported1-5, owing to the large pore size, the silanol groups, which are in a big population in mesoporous materials, can chemically couple with the active groups of some bulky organic functional molecules. Based on this approach, one can obtain novel solid basic catalysts. Here we functionalized the hexagonal and hexagonal-like mesoporous silica materials SBA-3 and HMS wi…     

Polybinaphthyls of (R)-3,3′-Diiodo-2,2′-binaphtho-20-crown-6 with p-Divinylbenzene via Heck Cross-coupling Reaction

IntroductionFunctional polymers bearing chiral moietiesand the extended conjugatedπ system have attract-ed considerable attention during the pastdecade[1,2 ] .The enantiodifferation properties ofsuch macromolecules give rise to multiple applica-tions in the fields of asymmetric catalysis,chiralsensors,polarized light emission and nonlinear op-tical materials[3 ,4] .Especially the incorporation ofoptically active binaphthyls in the main chain ofconjugated polymers can lead to an efficient ands…

ESR Approach to the Nature of Solvation by Using s-Butyl n-Heptafluorobutyryl Nitroxide Probe

Because the solvent dependency of aN, g factors and line widths of some bulky and stable di-t-alkyl nitroxides1, ESR has been proved to be a useful tool in searching for the nature of medium effects ( solvation ) to chemical reactivity. A large number of fluorinated nitroxides with a wide variety of structures have been generated and subjected to extensive studies in our laboratory2. Amongst, t-butyl perfluoroalkyl nitroxides, much less hindered, with noβ-H atoms, have been employed as sp…     

Synthesis of Quinolone Analogues: 7-[(2S,4R)-2-Aminomethyl-4- hydroxypyrrolidin-1-yl] Quinolones

Quinolone antibacterial agents have emerged as one of the dominant classes chemotherapeutic drugs for the treatment of various bacterial infections1. We have focused our attention on the modification of the C-7 basic group of the quinolone which has been most varied. In 1987, Uno et al.2 reported that 3-hydroxypyrrolidine quinolones showed more active antibacterial activities than Norfloxacin in vivo. In 1998, Fujita et al.3 reported that 2-aminomethylpyrrolidine quinolones have the same …     

Impedance Characterization of Adsorption Process of Calmodulin on Au Substrate and its Combination with Ca~(2+)

Recently, the adsorption behavior of protein on solid substrate has attracted much attention for the reason that adsorption on a substrate is the first key step for other further electrochemical investigation1. Meanwhile the free adsorption could provide a relative well-ordered structure, with which some fundamental study could be carried out conveniently2. As we know, the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) method has become one of the powerful techniques to detect the change of i…     

Hydrothermal Synthesis of Pb_(1-1.5x)La_xZr_(0.5)Ti_(0.5)O_3 (x = 0.01-0.06) Nanocrystallites

Lanthanum doped lead zirconate titanate (PLZT) ceramics display excellent electrooptic and photostriction properties because of the existence of cavities in the perovskite structure1-3. The PLZT powders are conventionally prepared by solid state reaction4-5, and the wet chemical methods such as sol-gel techniques are then introduced6-7. However, the homogeneity, morphology and size of the particles, which greatly affect the sinterability and the property of the resulting ceramics, are dif…     

A Theoretical Study on the Stereoisomerism in the Complex of Cucurbit[8]uril with 2,6-Bis(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)naphthalene

Cucurbit[n]urils (CB [n]),macropolycyclic compounds self-assembled from an acid-catalyzed condensation of glycoluril and formaldehyde1, can form inclusion complexes with a number of organic substrates in water2. Usually, CB [6] is used in the studies because of its easy synthesis, and the driving forces for its binding are considered to be the hydrophobic effect and dipole-dipole interactions. CB[n] 1Very recently, Kim et al reported the synthesis of CB [5], CB [7], and CB [8]3. They fou…     

Efficient Debromination of Vicinal a, b-Dibromo Carboxylic Acid Derivatives with the Sm/HOAc System

The chemistry of samarium (II) iodide (SmI2) is of current interest in organic synthesis. SmI2 has been developed as a powerful, versatile and ether-soluble single-electron reductant and many examples have been reported of its use in the reduction of various functional groups1. Though SmI2 is a useful reagent, storage is difficult because it is very sensitive to air oxidation. On the other hand, metallic samarium is stable in air and has strong reducing power (Sm3+/Sm=-2.41 V). These pr…     

SYNTHESIS AND CATALYTIC PROPERTY OF POLYSTYRENE SUPPORTED PHENYLALANINE SCHIFF BASE COMPLEX OF Mn(Ⅱ) IN AEROBIC OXIDATION OF CYCLOHEXENE

1. INTRODUCTION The partial oxidation of alkenes (forming acids, aldehydes and alcohols) is of considerable interest to the chemical industry. In most cases, more than one oxygenated product is formed from a given starting material and all products are susceptible to complete oxidation to carbon dioxide and water [1]. As mimetic oxygen carrier or oxidation catalyst, metalloporphyrins have been widly studied [2~7]. Among the non-porphyrin systems, the manganese complexes of Schiff base are…
