Fe2O3-catalyzed Pummerer rearrangement of acyl chlorides and sulfoxides: Facile synthesis of alkylthiomethyl ester

A simple, effective approach for the Pummerer rearrangement of acyl chlorides with sulfoxides by using a low-cost and more abundant Fe catalyst has been described. The alkylthiomethyl ester products were prepared in good to excellent yields for a range of different substrates including asymmetrical sulfoxides and acyl chlorides with a variety of functional groups under mild reaction conditions. The reaction features short reaction time, simple manipulation, cheap reagents and a broad substrate scope. Single crystal X-ray analysis of a representative methylthiomethyl (MTM) group containing product was also reported.     

一类SEI传染病扩散模型及其移动边沿

该文研究一类SEI传染病模型,其中病毒在潜伏期和感染期具有感染性.首先研究固定区域上SEI偏微分方程组,考虑平衡解的局部稳定性和全局稳定性.然后重点研究相应的自由边界问题,其中自由边界表示病毒的移动边沿。给出了该问题解的全局存在性、唯一性,讨论了自由边界的性质,证明了病毒要么蔓延,要么消退.还给出了蔓延和消退的充分条件,结果表明:当有效接触率很小或平均潜伏期较短,且初始染病区域小时,疾病消退;而当有效接触率大或平均潜伏期较长,且初始染病区域大时,疾病蔓延.     

Rogue wave solutions for a generalized nonautonomous nonlinear equation in a nonlinear inhomogeneous fiber

In this paper, we investigate a generalized nonautonomous nonlinear equation which describes the ultrashort optical pulse propagating in a nonlinear inhomogeneous fiber. By virtue of the generalized Darboux transformation, the first- and second-order rogue-wave solutions for the generalized nonautonomous nonlinear equation are obtained, under some variable–coefficient constraints. Properties of the first- and second-order rogue waves are graphically presented and analyzed: When the coefficients are all chosen as the constants, we can observe the some functions, the shapes of wave crests and troughs for the first- and second-order rogue waves change. Oscillating behaviors of the first- and second-order rogue waves are observed when the coefficients are the trigonometric functions.     

Synthesis and Application of N-Tosyl Piperidinyl-Containing α-Aminophosphonates

Abstract

A series of novel (4′-tosyl) piperidin-4-yl containing α-aminophosphonates were synthesized by a one-pot reaction, efficiently catalyzed by magnesium perchlorate, under solvent-free conditions from 1-tosylpiperidin-4-one, substituted aromatic amines, and diethyl phosphite (DEP). The synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ³¹P NMR, and HRMS spectroscopy. A single-crystal X-ray structure of diethyl 4-(2-chlorophenyl) amino-1-(4’-methylbezenesulfonyl) piperidin-4-yl-phosphonate (2a) was obtained, and some of the title compounds displayed insecticidal activities against Plutella xylostella.

Recognition of α-Amino Acid from β- and γ-Amino Acid by N -Phosphorylation

The reactivity of N -phosphoryl f -alanine differs from N -phosphoryl g -alanine and N -phosphoryl n -amino butyric acid enormously. N -phospho- f -alanine could self-activate to yield N -phosphopeptides either in aqueous or nonaqueous media, but not g - or n -amino acid analogues. The mechanism of the reaction is discussed.     

A Novel Synthesis of 2-Alkylthiobenzothiazoles and 2-Alkylthiobenzoxazoles

Abstract

3H-Benzothiazole-2-thione and 3H-benzoxazole-2-thione were selectively S-alkylated by use of O-alkylisoureas as the alkylating reagents. The reactions could be performed under mild reaction conditions in short reaction times, and high yields were obtained using O-primary-alkylisoureas, whereas low yields were obtained with sec- and tert-alkylisoureas.     

Effect of Mineral Salts on Steady Rheological Properties of Nonionic Hydrophobically Modified Polyacrylamide and Its Stress-Relaxation Behavior

A micelle-forming polymerizable surfactant monomer, octylphenol polyoxyethylene acrylate (OP-10-AC), was synthesized, and then OP-10-AC was copolymerized with acrylamide (AM) to form nonionic hydrophobically modified polyacrylamide P(AM/OP-10-AC) through micellar copolymerization. In the absence of surfactants, it was investigated in detail that the effect of mineral salts and temperature on steady rheological properties of P(AM/OP-10-AC) solutions and the effect of concentrations on reduced viscosity of P(AM/OP-10-AC) in a dilute solution. The results indicate that concentrations of the copolymer, mineral salts and temperature had a strong influence on shear viscosity of P(AM/OP-10-AC) solutions, and the trend of reduced viscosity of P(AM/OP-10-AC) solutions was distinctly different from polyacrylamide with increasing concentrations of testing solutions. In addition, it was also investigated that stress-relaxation behavior of an aqueous solution of P(AM/OP-10-AC)/KCl. As a result, a stress-relaxation model of the copolymer solutions was proposed, which can further verify the correctness of the conclusion on stress-relaxation behavior of hydrophobic association hydrogels in the paper reported previously.
