Acetylenic sulfones attached to solid supports by means of ester linkers were employed in a variety of cyclization and cycloaddition reactions, followed by cleavage of the products from the resin by ester hydrolysis or reductive desulfonylation.

[figure: see text] Thermolysis of lactone 18 initiated a stereospecific transannular nitrone-olefin [3 + 2] cycloaddition to yield tetracycle 19. Methanolysis followed by reductive cleavage of the isoxazolidine yielded 20, representing the azaspirocyclic core of pinnaic acid (1).

In Part I of this three-part tutorial on dual-functional radar-communication (DFRC), we overviewed the fundamental elements DFRC. As II tutorial, letter overviews state-of-the-art (SoA) in DFRC, with a particular emphasis use technique for seamless connectivity vehicular network. We commence by introducing conventional beam tracking approaches millimeter wave (mmWave) communication systems, bas...

The zinc(II) complex [Zn2(dmdtc)2(μ-dmdtc)2] has been synthesized directly from thiram ligand, containing a disulfide bond {dmdtc = N,N-dimethyldithiocarbamate; thiram = N,N-tetramethylthiuram disulfide}, and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods. Surprisingly thiram, undergoes a reductive disulfide bond scission upon reaction with Zn2+ in methanolic media to give the [Z...

Reductive Claisen rearrangement of 1-allyloxy-8-methoxy-9, 10-anthraquinone followed by demethylation and reduction, and of 1,8-bisallyloxy-9,lO-anthraquinone followed by reduction provides regiospecific syntheses of 2-propyl- and 2,7-dipropyl anthralin

BACKGROUND Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) results in collapse of alveolar units and loss of lung volume at the end of expiration. Mechanical ventilation is used to treat patients with ARDS or Acute Lung Injury (ALI), with the end objective being to increase the dynamic functional residual capacity (dFRC), and thus increasing overall functional residual capacity (FRC). Simple methods...

Agave plants utilize crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) for CO(2) fixation. Fructans are the principal photosynthetic products generated by agave plants. These carbohydrates are fructose-bound polymers frequently with a single glucose moiety. Agave tequilana Weber var. azul is an economically important CAM species not only because it is the sole plant allowed for tequila production but because ...

Reversible protein biotinylation is readily affected via conjugation with a bromomaleimide-based reagent followed by reductive cleavage. The intermediate biotinylated protein constructs are stable at physiological temperature and pH 8.0. Quantitative reversibility is elegantly delivered under mild conditions of using a stoichiometric amount of a bis-thiol, thus providing an approach that will b...
