钒取代的杂多酸催化一锅四组分Dakin-West反应合成β-乙酰氨基酮(英文)

The multicomponent condensation of an aryl aldehyde,acetyl chloride,acetonitrile,and enolizable ketone as one-pot synthesis of β-acetamido ketones in high yields was investigated using commercial,non-corrosive,and environmentally benign Keggin and Wells-Dawson heteropolyacid catalysts.The best catalyst was H5PW10V2O40.The methodology used simple experimental conditions,and the short reaction times and high yields indicate it is a useful strategy for the large scale synthesis of β-acetamido ketones.     

Catalyst-free,aqueous and highly diastereoselective synthesis of new 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles via a multi-component domino Knoevenagel condensation/1,3 dipolar cycloaddition reaction

An approach for the synthesis of new 5-substituted-tetrazoles via multi-component domino Knoevenagel condensation/1,3 dipolar cycloaddition reaction of carbonyl compounds, malononitrile and sodium azide in water without assistance of any catalyst has been reported. This general protocol provides a wide variety of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles in good yields under mild reaction conditions.     

Cobalt(II)-selective membrane electrode based on N,N′-di(thiazol-2-yl)formimidamide

A new PVC-membrane electrode for Co²⁺ ions based on N,N′-di(thiazol-2-yl)formimidamide (TF) as membrane carrier has been developed. The electrode resulted in Nernstian response (29.5?±?0.4?mV decade^?1) for Co²⁺ ion over a wide concentration range (2.5?×?10^?7 ?1.0?×?10^?1?M) with a detection limit of 6.1?×?10^?8?M. The sensor has a response time of about 10?s, and can be used for at least 2 months without observing any deviation from the Nernstain response. The electrode revealed good selectivity towards cobalt(II) ion over a wide variety of alkali, alkaline earth, transition, and heavy metal ions and could be used in the pH range 2.0–7.0. The electrode was used for determination of Co²⁺ in real samples.     

Evaluating nonlinear variability of mental fatigue behavioral indices during long‐term attentive task

This study investigates the behavioral indices of attention. A simple repetitive attentive task that resulted in mental fatigue was used consecutively in four trials. In the first step, reaction time and error responses were recorded to evaluate differences among trials. During the task, subjects showed different responses to stimulations. In the second part, to recognize the strategies, multiple clustering methods such as k‐means and fuzzy c‐means were performed in which behavioral indices and nonlinear features were used. In the last section, mental behavior was identified as a result of the chaotic properties of variations in reaction time. Therefore, the Lyapunov exponent of reaction times was evaluated. Results revealed that behavioral indices could distinguish attention from the occurrence of mental fatigue in trials. In addition, the three strategies used by subjects during the test protocol were assessed. Finally, variation of indices extracted from nonlinear analysis, that is, decrease in degree of chaotic behavior determined the transition from attention to mental fatigue. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Do we know the mass of a black hole? Mass of some cosmological black hole models

Using a cosmological black hole model proposed recently, we have calculated the quasi-local mass of a collapsing structure within a cosmological setting due to different definitions put forward in the last decades to see how similar or different they are. It has been shown that the mass within the horizon follows the familiar Brown–York behavior. It increases, however, outside the horizon again after a short decrease, in contrast to the Schwarzschild case. Further away, near the void, outside the collapsed region, and where the density reaches the background minimum, all the mass definitions roughly coincide. They differ, however, substantially far from it. Generically, we are faced with three different Brown–York mass maxima: near the horizon, around the void between the overdensity region and the background, and another at cosmological distances corresponding to the cosmological horizon. While the latter two maxima are always present, the horizon mass maxima is absent before the onset of the central singularity.     

The effect of 2.1 T static magnetic field on astrocyte viability and morphology

The viability and a number of morphological properties of in situ astrocytes of rat spinal cord cultures including changes in surface area and migration of both cell body and nucleus were investigated at magnetic field intensities comparable to those currently used for magnetic resonance imaging. Viability of rat spinal astrocytes was studied after up to 72 hours of 2.1T static magnetic field exposure. Surface areas and two-dimensional centroids of both soma and nucleus after 2 hours of magnetic field exposure were determined and compared with those of the same cells before magnetic field exposure. Cell membrane ruffling was quantified using fractal analysis.     

Efficient Chemoselective Mild Deprotection of S,Sand S,O-Acetals and Ketals with Electrophilic Halogens

A novel and simple method for the chemoselective deprotection of S,S- and S,O-acetals and ketals in the presence of their O,O-analogs with electrophilic halogens to their corresponding carbonyl compounds is described using N-bromosuccinimide, N-chlorosuccinimide, 2,4,4,6-tetrabromo-2,5-cyclohexen-1-one, trichlorocyanuric acid, or molecular bromine in aqueous acetonitrile. The use of these reagents in the presence of hydrated silica gel provide efficient, novel, and mild procedures for the deprotection of cyclic and acyclic O,O-, S,S-, and S,O-acetals and ketals in excellent yields in short reaction times.
