A novel Ag(I)-induced three-component annulation reaction of [60]fullerene with sulfonylhydrazones and nitriles has been developed for the efficient synthesis of diverse disubstituted [60]fullerene-fused dihydropyrroles. The reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope and excellent functional-group tolerance, and also allows for the synthesis of fullerene-bound macromolecules.

Well-dispersed mesoporous hollow silica-fullerene nanoparticles with particle sizes of ∼50 nm have been successfully prepared by incorporating fullerene molecules into the silica framework followed by a selective etching method. The fabricated fluorescent silica-fullerene composite with high porosity demonstrates excellent performance in combined chemo/photodynamic therapy.

We present a systematic representation of C++, called IPR, for complete semantic analysis and semantics-based transformations. We describe the ideas and design principles that shaped the IPR. In particular, we describe how general type-based unification is key to minimal compact representation, fast type-safe traversal, and scalability. The IPR is general enough to handle real-world programs in...

Changes in proliferative activity in epithelial cells of rat lenses maintained in organ culture for 24 hours have been characterized, and the effects of isoproterenol (IPR) and cyclic adenosine-3',5'-monophosphate(cAMP) derivatives added to the culture medium have been studied. Transient mitotic inhibition occurred within the first few hours of incubation with IPR as well as with monobutyryl an...

Let (S,+) be an infinite commutative semigroup with identity 0. Let u, v ∈ N and let A be a u×v matrix with nonnegative integer entries. If S is cancellative, let the entries of A come from Z. Then A is image partition regular over S (IPR/S) iff whenever S \{0} is finitely colored, there exists ~x ∈ (S \{0}) such that the entries of A~x are monochromatic. The matrix A is centrally image partiti...

in this paper, we calculate the eccentric connectivity index and the eccentricity sequence of two infinite classes of fullerenes with 50 + 10k and 60 + 12k (k in n) carbon atoms.

Zero-dimensional fullerenes can modulate the biological behavior of a variety of cell lines. However, the effects and molecular mechanisms of proliferation and cardiomyogenic differentiation in brown adipose-derived stem cells (BADSCs) are still unclear. In this study, we report the initial biological effects of fullerene-C60 on BADSCs at different concentrations. Results suggest that fullerene...

This paper provides a broad-ranging review in a global context of many aspects of developing changes in intellectual property rights (IPR) in response to the currently rapidly changing technological and information industries. As such, it covers such matters as knowledge ownership, the IPR framework, TRIPS and WTO in relation to developing countries, technology transfer and balance in a world-w...
