Über die katalytische Hydrierung von o-Chinondiacetaten

Zusammenfassung Durch Hydrierung von methylsubstituierten o-Chinondiacetaten gelingt es, reine Brenzcatechinmonoacetate zu erhalten. In mehreren Fällen tritt im Laufe der Hydrierung Umesterung ein; d. h. es liegt der ursprüngliche Oxosauerstoff in Form einer Acetatgruppierung vor. Es wird aber auch ein Fall beschrieben, bei dem diese Umesterung nicht eintritt.Herrn Prof. Dr. tech.A. Brukl zum 70. Geburtstag gewidmet (F. W.).     

Nested neutron microfocusing optics on SNAP

The high source intensity of the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), together with efficient detectors and large detector solid angles, now makes possible neutron experiments with much smaller sample volumes than previously were practical. Nested Kirkpatrick–Baez supermirror optics provide a promising and efficient way to further decrease the useable neutron sample size by focusing polychromatic neutrons into microbeams. Because the optics are nondispersive, they are ideal for spallation sources and for polychromatic and wide bandpass experiments on reactor sources. Theoretical calculations indicate that nested mirrors can preserve source brilliance at the sample for small beams and for modest divergences that are appropriate for diffraction experiments. Although the flux intercepted by a sample can be similar with standard beam-guided approaches, the signal-to-background is much improved with small beams on small samples. Here we describe the design, calibration and performance of a nested neutron mirror pair for the Spallation Neutrons At Pressure (SNAP) beamline at the SNS. High-pressure neutron diffraction is but one example of a large class of neutron experiments that will benefit from spatially-resolved microdiffraction.     

Separation of magnetic phases in alloys

In this paper we present a study of the separation of phases in multi-phase alloys. The proposed technique is based on the hyperbolic model of magnetization. By using this model it is possible to decompose the magnetic phases of alloys and determine their magnetic properties separately. Experimental verification was carried out on a transformer-like setup, constructed from layered samples representing the various magnetic phases. The samples were constructed from elements of strongly different magnetic properties. The results given by the model are in an excellent agreement with the experimental results, giving justification for the proposed method of decomposition. The proposed method is the first step towards the recognition and the separation of magnetic constituencies of different magnetic properties in an alloy by analytical means.     

Modification of Hemodialysis Membranes for Efficient Circulating Tumor Cell Capture for Cancer Therapy

Background: It is well known that more than 90% of cancer deaths are due to metastases. However, the entire tumorigenesis process is not fully understood, and it is evident that cells spreading from the primary tumor play a key role in initiating the metastatic process. Tumor proliferation and invasion also elevate the concentration of regular and irregular metabolites in the serum, which may alter the normal function of the entire human homeostasis and possibly causes cancer metabolism syndrome, also referred to as cachexia. Methods: We report on the modification of commercially available hemodialysis membranes to selectively capture circulating tumor cells from the blood stream by means of immobilized human anti-EpCAM antibodies on the inner surface of the fibers. All critical steps are described that required in situ addition of the immuno-affinity feature to hemodialyzer cartridges in order to capture EpCAM positive circulating tumor cells, which represents ~80% of cancer cell types. Results: The cell capture efficiency of the suggested technology was demonstrated by spiking HCT116 cancer cells both into buffer solution and whole blood and run through on the modified cartridge. Flow cytometry was used to quantitatively evaluate the cell clearance performance of the approach. Conclusions: The suggested modification has no significant effect on the porous structure of the hemodialysis membranes; it keeps its cytokine removal capability, addressing cachexia simultaneously with CTC removal.     

Ligand‐Controlled Regiodivergent Enantioselective Rhodium‐Catalyzed Alkene Hydroboration

Regiocontrol in the rhodium‐catalyzed boration of vinyl arenes is typically dominated by the presence of the conjugated aryl substituent. However, small differences in TADDOL‐derived chiral monophosphite ligands can override this effect and direct rhodium‐catalyzed hydroboration of β‐aryl and β‐heteroaryl methylidenes by pinacolborane to selectively produce either chiral primary or tertiary borated products. The regiodivergent behavior is coupled with enantiodivergent addition of the borane. The nature of the TADDOL backbone substituents and that of the phosphite moiety function synergistically to direct the sense and extent of regioselectivity and enantioinduction. Twenty substrates are shown to undergo each reaction mode with regioselectivity values reaching greater than 20:1 and enantiomer ratios reaching up to 98:2. A variety of subsequent transformations illustrate the potential utility of each product.     

Atmospheric photodissociation lifetimes for nitromethane,methyl nitrite,and methyl nitrate

Atmospheric photodissociation rate coefficients and photodissociation lifetimes for nitromethane, methyl nitrite, and methyl nitrate were calculated as a function of altitude from their measured visible and near ultraviolet photoabsorption cross sections at 298 K. The lifetime of methyl nitrite is nearly independent of altitude and is approximately 2 min. From 0 to 50 km the lifetime of nitromethane varies from 10 to 0.5 hr, while that of methyl nitrate changes from 5.3 to 0.09 days, respectively.
