First Total Synthesis of (±)-Aiphanol

Aiphanol was isolated from the seeds of Aiphanes aculeate Willd. (Arecaceae) collected in Peru and was reported to exhibit significant inhibitory activities against cyclooxyge- nases-1 and -2. The structure of aiphanol was elucidated by spectroscopic methods as an unprecedented stilbenolignan skeleton in which a stilbene moiety is linked to a phenylpropane unit through a dioxane bridge1. In our previous works the synthetic approach to 1,4-benzodioxane lignans were achieved2. Since aiphanol…     

Evaluation of Transient Absorption Spectra of N, N, N, N- Tetra - ( p -methylphenyl ) - 4, 4- diamino - 1, 1- diphenyl Ether ( TPDAE ) for Electron Transfer from TPDAE to Fullerenes ( C_(60) / C_(70) ) by Laser Flash Photolysis

Fullerenes C60 and C70 have high electron affinity ( 2.6 - 2.8 ev ) and readily form anions on electronchemical reduction1, which were famous as electron acceptor in photo-excitation because of symmetrical shape, large size, and properties of its p - electron system2. After observation of molecular ferromagnetism3 in the tetrakis (dimethylamino ) ethylene salt of C60 as well as the occurrence of ultra-fast photoinduced electron transfer within the dimethyl aniline - C60 complex4, prompted us…     

Synthesis of a Polymer-bound Sensitizer and its Application in the Photoisomerization of trans-Vitamin D_3 to cis-Vitamin D_3

The photochemistry of the vitamin D family and their precursors has been the subject of extensive studies for many years1-4. Most of the studies focus on the photoisomer- ization of 7-dehydrocholesterol and that of tachysterol to previtamin D3, which is of commercial importance in the synthesis of vitamin D34, 5. Recently the cis/trans isomerization of vitamin D analogs (Scheme 1) draws attention because of its importance in the synthesis of hydroxylated vitamin D metabolites6. However, o…     

DiastereoselectiveandEnantioselectiveSynthesisof(1S,2S)-2-Ethyl-1-aminocyclopropaneCarboxylicAcid

During the last decade, 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid and its derivatives (ACCS) have attracted increasing attention of organic and bioorganic chemists due to their outstanding biological properties, ranging from antimicrobial, insecticidal, plant growth and fruit ripening controls, etc.1. Moreover, the three-membered carbocycle provides building blocks of unprecedented synthetic potential because it undergoes selective ring opening, ring enlargement or cycloaddition reactions2. The mo…     

Determination of Partial Molar Volumes of EPA and DHA Ethyl Esters in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

The use of supercritical fluids (SCFs) as solvents has been attracting widespread interest in the research and commercial applications. The study of partial molar volumes of solutes at infinite dilution in the near-critical region is of considerable fundamental importance, as these data reflects the interactions occurring between the solute and the solvent. Experimental measurements of partial molar volumes may be divided into two categories: direct and indirect methods. The direct methods…     

Dendritic Macroinitiator for the Ring—Opening Polymerization of γ—Benzyl L—Glutamate N—Carboxyanhydride

Much effort has been dedicated to the molecular design and synthesis of model proteins to define protein folding interactions and to develop protein-based materials. Among them, the ring-opening polymerization of -amino acid-N-carboxyanhy- drides (NCAs) has drawn much attention because the resulting artificial polypeptides have wide applications in biotechnology, biomineralization and diagnostics1, 2. It is well known that dendrimers are hyperbranched macromolecules possessing a very high co…     

Dioxygen Affinities and Catalytic Oxidation Performance of Cobalt (II)Complexes with N-Aryl Hydroxamic Acid

It is well known that the study on biomimetic oxygen carriers not only has important theoretic significance to discover the mechanism of reversible bonding, activating oxygen as well as the oxidation reaction in organism, but also has potential application in separating oxygen from air and realizing the high efficiency and selectivity of catalytic oxidation reaction under a mild condition1. Metal- porphyrin and metal- phthalol- gaunine have been extensively used as biomimetic oxygen carriers u…     

A New Convenient Method for the Resolution of 1, 1''''-Binaphthalene-2, 2''''-diol Via a Phosphite Using (-)-Menthol as Resolving Agent

Optically active 1,1-binaphthalene-2, 2-diol has become a quite important chiral source in different fields of chirotechnology, especially in asymmetric synthesis1. Its synthesis and resolution has been extensively studied and various resolution methods have been reported2. Among the reported resolution methods, the following three, namely, via the formation of phosphoric acid derivatives3, boric acid derivatives4 and inclusion complexes5, are the most important. OHOH+_( )-1(-)-(S)-1(+)-(R)…     

Indium (III) Tribromide : An Excellent Catalyst for Biginelli Reaction

A highly efficient catalyst indium (III) tribromide is used to synthesize 5-alkoxy- carbonyl-4-hydrocarbyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones by a three-component coupling of β-keto ester, aldehydes and urea through improved Biginelli reaction.
