The present invention provides a process for the synthesis of an α,β-unsaturated ester from a mono-olefinester using Fe(CO).sub.5.

A Pseudomonas sp. rapidly metabolized several nonchlorinated analogues of DDT, with the exception of 2,2-diphenylethanol, as the sole carbon source. Several of the mono-p-chloro-substituted diphenyl analogues were also metabolized as the sole carbon source by the bacterium. The resulting chlorinated aromatic acid metabolites were not further metabolized. The isolate was unable to metabolize p,p...

The structures of the compounds 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene, C(30)H(24)P(2), [2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]methyldiphenylphosphonium iodide, C(31)H(27)P(2)(+).I(-), and [2-(dimethylphosphino)phenyl]trimethylphosphonium iodide, C(11)H(19)P(2)(+).I(-), show that quaternization only occurs at one P centre and results in significantly shorter P-C bonds and larger C-P-C angles, consistent with ...

The S → N acylation rates of thioester functionalized coumarins on heptakis-[6-deoxy-6-(2-aminoethylsulfanyl)]-β-cyclodextrin were measured. A high yield of mono-acylation was achieved with products that form self-inclusion compounds. The differential fluorescence response of the functionalized cyclodextrins upon binding biomacromolecules shows the potential of the constructs as probes.

New carborane anions carrying one or three triflyloxy substituents are described. The mono-triflyloxy substituted carborane can be halogenated to give pentabromo and decachloro derivatives with preservation of the B-OTf linkage. The use of [HCB11Cl10OTf](-) as a weakly coordinating anion is demonstrated.

this study evaluated the histopathologic changes in the round window niche. , and membrane in cases of chronic suppurative otitis media. the pathologic process was found in all subjects. fibrocystic or fibrous tissue was most commonly seen, while active granulation was less developed. the round window membrane was thicker and inflamed throughout its layers. inflammatory invasion of the inner ea...

customer service level is of prime importance in today competitive world and has various dimensions with delivery quality being one of the most important ones. delivery quality has several parameters such as deliver time window options, time window size, etc. in this paper we focus on one of these parameters, namely time window setting. it has a direct impact upon customer satisfaction and busi...

Multiphoton microscopy has been shown to be a useful tool in studying drug distribution in biological tissues. In addition, fluorescence lifetime imaging provides information about the structure and dynamics of fluorophores based on their fluorescence lifetimes. Fluorescein, a commonly used fluorescent probe, is metabolized within liver cells to fluorescein mono-glucuronide, which is also fluor...

The study reports the first assessment for the quantification and speciation of butyltins (BTs) in surface marine sediment samples (0-5 cm) from intertidal mudflats of Sundarban mangrove wetland along with the Hugli (Ganges) river basin, eastern coastal part of India. Concentrations of tributyltin (TBT), dibutyltin (DBT) and monobutyltin (MBT) were monitored at 16 stations and present at all st...

The fluorinated dendritic chiral mono-N-tosylated 1,2-diphenylethlenediamine, FTsDPEN, has been synthesized and applied in the ruthenium(ii) complex-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of prochiral ketones in aqueous media.
