This work presents an alternative to studying and determining the torsion modulus, G, in composites. For this purpose, we use a measuring system with rotation motion sensor coupled pendulum that allows for angular position as function of time. Then, through equation derived from mechanical spectroscopy studies permits calculation G’s value, experiments focus on samples different quantities calc...

The materials of the given article are devoted to problem solution associated with one processing plastic waste methods by adding various fillers in order obtain final product for thermal insulation manufacture. researches were conducted using UPR (unsaturated polyester resin) samples made EPS (expanded polystyrene) and crushed recycled polyethylene from greenhouse film types wood carpentry wor...

The highly diastereoselective anti-aminohydroxylation of alpha,beta-unsaturated esters, via conjugate addition of lithium (S)-N-benzyl-N-(alpha-methylbenzyl)amide and subsequent in situ enolate oxidation with (+)-(camphorsulfonyl)oxaziridine, has been used as the key step in the asymmetric synthesis of N,O-diacetyl xestoaminol C (41% yield over 8 steps), N,O,O-triacetyl sphinganine (30% yield o...

The copper-catalyzed conjugate addition-cycloacylation reaction of zinc homoenolatee with acetylenic esters or acetylenic amides is described. The zinc homoenolate is prepared from [ (ethoxycyclopropy1)oxyltrimethylsilane and zinc chloride in ether. Addition of an acetylenic amide or ester provides 2-carboxamidoor 2-carboalkoxy-3-alkylcyclopent-2-en-l-ones ingood to excellent yields. The reacti...

An EtPPh(2)- or PPh(3)-catalyzed tandem three-component reaction of aldehyde, alkyl vinyl ketone, and amide is developed. Its further application in one-pot syntheses of highly functional alkenes starting from aldehydes, alkyl vinyl ketones, and amides is realized. A wide variety of highly functional α,β-unsaturated ketones can be furnished in 68-99% yields with high stereoselectivity (E/Z up t...

A novel Pd/Cu-catalyzed chemoselective aerobic oxidative N-dealkylation/carbonylation reaction has been developed. Tertiary amines are utilized as a "reservoir" of "active" secondary amines in this transformation, which inhibits the formation of undesired by-products and the deactivation of the catalysts. This protocol allows for an efficient and straightforward construction of synthetically us...

A highly enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of electron-rich aromatic nucleophiles catalyzed by scandium(III) triflate-pyridyl(bis)oxazoline complexes has been accomplished. The reaction involves alpha,beta-unsaturated acyl phosphonates as electrophiles and primarily substituted indoles as nucleophiles. The reactive acyl phosphonate product is converted to the corresponding ester or ami...
