Galactosides and lactosides bearing triazoles or isoxazoles, regiospecifically prepared by [1,3]-dipolar cycloadditions between alkynes, azides or nitrile oxides, provided specific galectin-1 and -3 inhibitors with potencies as low as 20 microM.

Abstract. We theoretically investigate a polarized dipolar Fermi gas in free expansion. The dipolar-dipolar inter-particle interaction deforms phase-space distribution in trap and also in the expansion. We exactly predict the minimal quadrupole deformation in the expansion for the hightemperature Maxwell-Boltzmann (MB) and zero-temperature Thomas-Fermi (TF) gases in the Hartree-Fock and Landau-...

A strategy for exo and enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine imines to 2-acryloyl-3-pyrazolidinone is described. The corresponding cycloadducts are isolated with high diastereoselectivities (up to >96:4 exo/endo) and enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee).

Many of the static and dynamic properties of an atomic Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) are usually studied by solving the mean-field Gross–Pitaevskii (GP) equation, which is a nonlinear partial differential equation for short-range atomic interaction. More recently, BEC of atoms with long-range dipolar atomic interaction are used in theoretical and experimental studies. For dipolar atomic intera...

Submitted for the MAR14 Meeting of The American Physical Society Synthetic gauge fields in quantum gases of dysprosium1 HUI ZHAI, Institute for Advanced Study, Tsinghua University, BENJAMIN LEV, Stanford University — To the toolbox of quantum gas-based many-body physics, highly magnetic atoms offer large, possibly non-perturbative, long-range dipolar interactions concomitant with extraordinaril...

Residual heteronuclear dipolar couplings obtained from partially oriented protein samples can provide unique NMR constraints for protein structure determination. However, partial orientation of protein samples also causes severe 1H line broadening resulting from residual 1H-1H dipolar couplings. In this communication we show that band-selective 1H homonuclear decoupling during data acquisition ...

Measurement of 1H-1H dipolar couplings in macromolecules, weakly oriented by a dilute liquid crystalline medium, is generally limited to the largest such interactions. By removing dipolar couplings to nearest neighbors, either by decoupling, deuteration, or both, more remote interactions become accessible. The approach is demonstrated for measurement of amide-amide interactions in the proteins ...

The 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition reactions are the classic reaction in modern synthetic organic chemistry. The concept of these reactions was introduced by Huisgen and his co-workers in the early 1960’s. 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition reactions are simple but powerful tool for the construction of five membered heterocycles such as isoxazoles, isoxazolines, pyrazoles, pyrazolones, 1,2,4-oxadiazolines et...

The computational tools necessary for making use of (1)H-(1)H dipolar couplings in macromolecular structure refinement are presented. Potentials are described for direct refinement against (1)H-(1)H dipolar couplings of known sign as well as of unknown sign. In addition, a multiple potential is developed for prochiral protons whose stereospecific assignments are unknown. The utility of direct (...

Residual dipolar couplings are useful global structural restraints. The dipolar couplings define the orientation of a vector with respect to the alignment tensor. Although the size of the alignment tensor can be derived from the distribution of the experimental dipolar couplings, its orientation with respect to the coordinate system of the molecule is unknown at the beginning of structure deter...
