The actual roles of the adenine nucleotides and activating factors such as the dicarboxylic acids of the Krebs cycle in the oxidation of fatty acids by broken cell preparations are unknown. Oxidation of the fatty acid (l-5) and the activating factor (6-8) leads to the synthesis of the phosphate bonds of adenosinetriphosphate.’ These facts have been difficult to demonstrate because of the rapid ...

detected. Ii both cases malonic acid was by far the most abundant product. The traces of glutaric and adipic acid in the oxidation products of the C18 and C1,9 acid respectively, can be explained by the presence of C20 and C21 pentaenoic acid, from which the above dicarboxylic acids are the known oxidation products. However, the possible presence of small amounts of an isomeric octadecatetraeno...

A linear template in the form of a bipyridine has been developed and is shown to direct a single-crystal-to-single-crystal [2 + 2] photodimerisation of a dicarboxylic acid.

Spontaneously resolvable conglomerate crystals are obtained by combining racemic (rac)-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid and rac-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine, and this spontaneous resolution system is induced by water which is present in the crystallization solvent.

This paper reports a useful method for facile direct syntheses of aromatic methyl esters from methyl aromatics by aerobic photo-oxidation using anthraquinone-2,3-dicarboxylic acid as an organophotocatalyst.

A hetero-stranded double helix with a controlled helix sense was designed and synthesized from an optically active dimeric amidine and its complementary achiral dicarboxylic acid strand with conjugated m-diethynylbenzene backbones, being stabilized by the salt bridges.

Novel carbasugars derived from cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid were synthesized and tested for inhibitory activity towards fungal glycosidases from Aspergillus oryzae and Penicillium canescens. Significant inhibition was observed, which magnitude depended on configuration of substituents.

Fe(BF(4))(2)·6H(2)O with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid and PhIO can efficiently catalyze the regioselective oxidation of terminal alkene derivatives to aldehydes under mild and benign reaction conditions.

Dicarboxylic organic acids have properties that differ from those of sulfuric acid during hydrolysis of lignocellulose. To investigate the effects of different acid catalysts on the hydrolysis and degradation of biomass compounds over a range of thermochemical pretreatments, maleic, oxalic and sulfuric acids were each used at the same combined severity factor (CSF) values during hydrolysis. Xyl...
