Oxidase-type oxidation is an attractive strategy in organic synthesis due to the use of O2 as terminal oxidant. Organic photocatalysis can effect metal-free oxidase chemistry. Nevertheless, current methods are limited reaction scope, possibly lack suitable photocatalysts. Here we report isoquinoline-derived diaryl ketone-type photocatalyst, which has much enhanced absorption blue and visible li...

the effects of high temperature homogenization and low temperature annealing treatments on the microstructure and magnetic properties of sintered magnets of an nd17fe76.5b5cu1.5 type alloy have been investigated. the microstructure of the as-cast alloy, consisted of three phases including a nd2fe14b1 (2:14:1- type) matrix phase cu-containing nd-rich phase and free α-iron. the as-sintered magnet...

Cryopreservation of semen from the Caspian brown trout (Salmo trutta caspius) and effects of extender type, freezing and thawing rates on fertilization ability were studied. After assessment of semen quality, one part of semen was diluted with three parts of different extender and decanted into 0.5ml straws. Freezing was carried out at two freezing levels, 1.5cm and 2cm above surface of liquid ...

Macrocyclization is typically the key step in syntheses of cyclophane-type natural products. Considering compounds with axially chiral biaryl moieties, control atroposelectivity essential for biological activity and synthetically challenging. Herein we report on atroposelective macrocyclization involving an oxidative Heck type process enabling first atropo-enantiopure synthesis isoriccardin C. ...
