Novel Fluorine-containing Poly(aryl ether amide)s derived from 2,3,4,5,6-Pentafluorobenzoic Acid

A Novel Polyaryl Ether Based Photorefractive Composite

We report the synthesis of a novel charge-transporting polymer based on the chargetransport unit N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4,4′-diamine (TPD). Introducing approximately 30 wt % of the liquid electro-optic molecule 4-(N,N-diethylamino)2-fluoro-(Z)-â-methyl-(E)-â-nitrostyrene (FDEAMNST) and small amounts of C60 makes this polymer photorefractive. A full photorefractiv...

Expandable Polyaryl-Ether-Ether-Ketone Spacers for Interbody Distraction in the Lumbar Spine

Study Design Retrospective case series. Objective StaXx XD (Spine Wave, Inc., Shelton, CT, United States) is an expandable polyaryl-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) wafer implant utilized in the treatment of lumbar degenerative disease. PEEK implants have been successfully used as interbody devices. Few studies have focused on expandable PEEK devices. The aim of the current study is to determine the r...

Synthesis of Indole-Derived Fluorine-Containing Amino Acids

A Brønsted acid promoted direct aminoalkylation of various indoles with trifluoromethyl oxazolidine is described. A catalytic amount of triflic acid provided straightforward access to the corresponding trifluoromethyled amino esters under mild reaction conditions and a short reaction time of 4 h. On further hydrogenolysis and hydrolysis of ester, the synthesis of indole derived unnatural triflu...

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Mono Acid Esters Derived from the Constituents of Urtica pilulifera

Abstract: New mono acid esters have been synthesized from the reaction of benzoic acid and mono-hydroxybenzoic acids with 2-phenoxyethanol separated from Urtica pilulifera, characterized, and screened for possible antioxidant, antifungal, antimicrobial and anticancer activities. These phenolic acid esters gave various degrees of free radical scavenging, but the values were lower than that of α-...
