Polystyrene‐supported (PS) diarylprolinol catalysts 1 a (Ar=phenyl) and 1 b (Ar=3,5‐bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl) have been developed. Operating under site‐isolation conditions, PS‐ 1 a / 1 b worked compatibly with PS‐bound sulfonic acid catalyst 2 to promote deoligomerization of paraldehyde and subsequent cross‐aldol reactions of the resulting acetaldehyde in one pot, affording aldol products in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. The effect of water on the performance of the catalytic system has been studied and its optimal amount (0.5 equiv) has been determined. The dual catalytic system ( 1 / 2 ) allows repeated recycling and reuse (10 cycles). The potential of this methodology is demonstrated by a two‐step synthesis of a phenoperidine analogue (68 % overall yield; 98 % ee) and by the preparation of highly enantioenriched 1,3‐diols 4 and 3‐methylamino‐1‐arylpropanols 5 , key intermediates in the synthesis of a variety of druglike structures. 相似文献
We herein report a one pot approach for the synthesis of various nitrogen containing heterocycles including: oxazolines, thiazolines, and dihydro dioxazines via the addition of amides to olefins in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) and propionitrile at high temperatures. Thus, the reaction of aryl/heteroaryl amides, thioamides, N-hydroxybenzamide, and phenylurea with various olefins in the presence of NIS and propionitrile at 45 °C afforded the N-heterocycles in good to moderate yields. Reaction of the electron deficient tri-O-acetyl-d-glucal and tri-O-acetyl-d-galactal with benzamide and thiophene-2-carboxamide afforded the N-glycooxazolines in good yields. The newly made heterocycles were tested against various enzymes. Only 3,6-diphenyl-dihydro-1,4,2-dioxazine (1c) was found to moderately inhibit hexokinase II (hHK2). 相似文献
Gallium oxide nanorods with unprecedented small dimensions (20–80 nm length and 3–5 nm width) were prepared using a novel, template‐free synthesis method. This nanomaterial is an excellent heterogeneous catalyst for the sustainable epoxidation of alkenes with H2O2, rivaling the industrial benchmark microporous titanosilicate TS‐1 with linear alkenes and being much superior with bulkier substrates. A thorough characterization study elucidated the correlation between the physicochemical properties of the gallium oxide nanorods and their catalytic performance, and underlined the importance of the nanorod morphology for generating a material with high specific surface area and a high number of accessible acid sites. 相似文献
In this work, we studied the catalytic activity of LaMnO3 and(La0.8A0.2)MnO3(A = Sr, K) perovskite catalysts for oxidation of NO and C10H22 and selective reduction of NO by C10H22. The catalytic per‐formances of these perovskites were compared with that of a 2 wt% Pt/SiO2 catalyst. The La site substitution increased the catalytic properties for NO or C10H22 oxidation compared with the non‐substituted LaMnO3 sample. For the most efficient perovskite catalyst,(La0.8Sr0.2)MnO3, the results showed the presence of two temperature domains for NO adsorption:(1) a domain corre‐sponding to weakly adsorbed NO, desorbing at temperatures lower than 270 °C and(2) a second domain corresponding to NO adsorbed on the surface as nitrate species, desorbing at temperatures higher than 330 °C. For the Sr‐substituted perovskite, the maximum NO2 yield of 80% was observed in the intermediate temperature domain (around 285 °C). In the reactant mixture of NO/C10H22/O2/H2O/He,(La0.8Sr0.2)MnO3 perovskite showed better performance than the 2 wt% Pt/SiO2 catalyst: NO2 yields reaching 50% and 36% at 290 and 370 °C, respectively. This activity improvement was found to be because of atomic scale interactions between the A and B active sites, Sr2+ cation and Mn4+/Mn3+ redox couple. Thus,(La0.8Sr0.2)MnO3 perovskite could be an alternative free noble metal catalyst for exhaust gas after treatment. 相似文献
In this work, several conditions of pH and inlet load (IL) were applied to a scale laboratory biofilter treating n-hexane vapors during 143 days. During the first 79 days of operation (period 1, P1), the system was fed with neutral pH mineral medium (MM) and the IL was progressively decreased from 177 to 16 g m?3 h?1. A maximum elimination capacity (EC) of 30 g m?3 h?1 was obtained at an IL of 176.9?±?9.8 g m?3 h?1. During the following 64 days (period 2, P2), acidic conditions were induced by feeding the biofilter with acidic buffer solution and pH 4 MM in order to evaluate the effect of bacterial community changes on EC. Within the acidic period, a maximum EC of 54 g m?3 h?1 (IL 132.3?±?13 g m?3 h?1) was achieved. Sequence analysis of 16S rDNA genes amplified from the consortium revealed the presence of Sphingobacteria, Actinobacteria, and α-, β- and γ-Proteobacteria. An Actinobacteria of the Mycobacterium genus had presence throughout the whole experiment of biofiltration showing resistance to fluctuating pH and IL conditions. Batch tests confirm the bacterial predominance and a negligible contribution of fungi in the degradation of n-hexane. 相似文献
A two level hierarchical balanced time minimizing transportation problem is considered in this paper. The whole set of source-destination
links consists of two disjoint partitions namely Level-I links and Level-II links. Some quantity of a homogeneous product
is first shipped from sources to destinations by Level-I decision maker using only Level-I links, and on its completion the
Level-II decision maker transports the remaining quantity of the product in an optimal fashion using only Level-II links.
Transportation is assumed to be done in parallel in both the levels. The aim is to find that feasible solution for Level-I
decision maker corresponding to which the optimal feasible solution for Level-II decision maker is such that the sum of shipment
times in Level-I and Level-II is the least. To obtain the global optimal feasible solution of this non-convex optimization
problem, related balanced time minimizing transportation problems are defined. Based upon the optimal feasible solutions of
these related problems, standard cost minimizing transportation problems are constructed whose optimal feasible solutions
provide various pairs for shipment times for Level-I and Level-II decision makers. The best out of these pairs is finally
selected. Being dependent upon solutions of a finite number of balanced time minimizing and cost minimizing transportation
problems, the proposed algorithm is a polynomial bound algorithm. The developed algorithm has been implemented and tested
on a variety of test problems and performance is found to be quite encouraging. 相似文献
Neuropeptides are short peptides in the range of 3–40 residues that are secreted for cell-cell communication in neuroendocrine systems. In the nervous system, neuropeptides comprise the largest group of neurotransmitters. In the endocrine system, neuropeptides function as peptide hormones to coordinate intercellular signaling among target physiological systems. The diversity of neuropeptide functions is defined by their distinct primary sequences, peptide lengths, proteolytic processing of pro-neuropeptide precursors, and covalent modifications. Global, untargeted neuropeptidomics mass spectrometry is advantageous for defining the structural features of the thousands to tens of thousands of neuropeptides present in biological systems. Defining neuropeptide structures is the basis for defining the proteolytic processing pathways that convert pro-neuropeptides into active peptides. Neuropeptidomics has revealed that processing of pro-neuropeptides occurs at paired basic residues sites, and at non-basic residue sites. Processing results in neuropeptides with known functions and generates novel peptides representing intervening peptide domains flanked by dibasic residue processing sites, identified by neuropeptidomics. While very short peptide products of 2–4 residues are predicted from pro-neuropeptide dibasic processing sites, such peptides have not been readily identified; therefore, it will be logical to utilize metabolomics to identify very short peptides with neuropeptidomics in future studies. Proteolytic processing is accompanied by covalent post-translational modifications (PTMs) of neuropeptides comprising C-terminal amidation, N-terminal pyroglutamate, disulfide bonds, phosphorylation, sulfation, acetylation, glycosylation, and others. Neuropeptidomics can define PTM features of neuropeptides. In summary, neuropeptidomics for untargeted, global analyses of neuropeptides is essential for elucidation of proteases that generate diverse neuropeptides for cell-cell signaling.
The first catalytic application of well‐defined (P,C) cyclometalated gold(III) complexes is reported. The bench‐stable bis(trifluoroacetyl) complexes 2 a , b perform very well in the intermolecular hydroarylation of alkynes. The reaction is broad in scope, it proceeds within few hours at 25 °C at catalytic loadings of 0.1–5 mol %. The electron‐rich arene adds across the C≡C bond with complete regio‐ and stereo‐selectivity. The significance of well‐defined gold(III) complexes and ligand design are highlighted in a powerful but challenging catalytic transformation. 相似文献
