Polystyrene sulfonate polymer brushes, grown on the interior of the microchannels in a microreactor, have been used for the anchoring of gallium as a Lewis acid catalyst. Initially, gallium-containing polymer brushes were grown on a flat silicon oxide surface and were characterized by FTIR, ellipsometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). XPS revealed the presence of one gallium per 2-...

Recent studies have provided several types of evidence supporting the view that ammonia is the key intermediate in nitrogen fixation by Azotobacter. An alternative hypothesis based on hydroxylamine depends almost entirely on the detection of traces of oximes in cultures fixing nitrogen. Although the two hypotheses are not mutually exclusive (Burris and Wilson, 1945), hydroxylamine remains an im...

OBJECTIVE Oximes are important materials in organic chemistry. Synparamethyl benzal- dehyde oxime (toloaldoxime) is structurally similar to other oximes, hence we have studied its effects on the neonatal and adult female Balb/c mice reproductive systems in order to provide a platform for future studies on the production of female contraceptive drugs. MATERIALS AND METHODS In experimental stud...

A gas chromatographic method which makes possible simultaneous analysis of common types of acidic and neutral sugars is described. Particular advantages are achieved with hydroxy acids, ketoses, and uronic acids. Acids and lactones are first converted into their sodium salts. Free or potential aldehydo and keto groups are transformed to oximes or O-methyloximes. Fully substituted acyclic ester ...

The cyclization of a ribose-derived pentenose oxime with various halogen electrophiles showed bromine to be the most effective reagent, leading to 80% of L-lyxo/D-ribo-pyrroline N-oxides in an 84:16 diastereomeric ratio. In order to explore the scope of this facile process, several other γ ,δ unsaturated oximes were submitted to this reaction. Depending on the substitution pattern, 23 – 87%, yi...

Fourty-two kinds of benzaldehyde O-alkyloximes derived from benzaldehydes were prepared and their biological activities were investigated. Introduction of a fluorine or bromine atom to the benzene ring of the oximes enhanced their phytotoxic activity. The O-alkyloximes with a fluorine atom at the 3 or 4 position of the benzene ring were more active than the other oximes in the GA3-induced α-amy...

MALWINA LLEN and JOHN D. ROBERTS. Can. J. Chem. 59,451 (1981). The effects of hydrogen bonding and protonation produced by changing solvent from chloroform to 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol to trifluoroacetic acid were determined for the 13C chemical shifts of fourteen imines, four oximes, and two pyridines. Downfield shifts relative to chloroform were observed for the C=N carbon of the imines and oxim...

1. Reactivation of erythrocyte cholinesterase inhibited by ethyl p-nitrophenyl ethylphosphonate (armine) was studied with NN'-dimethylenebis-(4-hydroxy-iminomethylpyridinium bromide) (C(2)-oxime), NN'-trimethylenebis-(4-hydroxy-iminomethylpyridinium bromide) (C(3)-oxime), NN'-tetramethylene-(4-hydroxy-iminomethylpyridinium bromide) (C(4)-oxime) and NN'-pentamethylenebis-(4-hydroxyiminomethylpyr...
