Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) functionalized with amino groups were prepared via chemical modification of carboxyl groups introduced on the carbon nanotube surface. Two different approaches (amide and amine-moieties) were used to produce the amino-functionalized nanotubes. The aminotermination allows further chemistry of the functionalized SWCNTs and makes possible covalent bonding to ...

Functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with NH2 groups under a one pot reaction is studied. During the first step of the reaction, Cl and CHCl2 groups were attached to the surfaces of MWCNTs through an electrophilic addition reaction. In the second step of process, Cl atoms were replaced with NH2 and amino groups (ethylene diamine and but...

In this study, functionalization of PET fabrics with amino groups was achieved by aminolysis. Aminolysis routes were explored using different amine-based materials including ethylenediamine (EDA), triaminotriethylamine (TAEA) and (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (APTMS), (3-trimethoxy-silylpropyl)diethylentriamine (TRIAMO) in addition to amino-functionalized silica nanoparticles as amino-silane ...

all-endo-3-amino-5-hydroxybicyclo[2.2.2]octane-2-carboxylic acid (13) and all-endo-5-amino-6-(hydroxymethyl)bicyclo[2.2.2]octan-2-ol (10) were prepared via dihydro-1,3-oxazine or g-lactone intermediates by the stereoselective functionalization of an N-protected derivative of endo-3-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-carboxylic acid (2). Ring closure of b-amino ester 4 resulted in tricyclic pyrimidi...

γ,δ-Unsaturated amino acids are the backbone of various natural products and pharmaceuticals, while quaternary α-amino also powerful enzyme inhibitors, both very important compounds in bioorganic chemistry. A highly efficient synthesis γ,δ-unsaturated esters utilizing tandem umpolung/Claisen rearrangement for α-iminoallyl was developed. This method has a wide range substrates taking account Ham...

In the present study, amino-functionalized carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) were prepared from sugarcane bagasse using a simple one-pot hydrothermal method. Both ethylenedinitrilotetraacetic (EDTA) & ethylenediamine (EDA) used as and amino sources, respectively. The emerging utilization of natural precursors is critically essential considering its low cost, eco-friendly, unexploited by-products...

α-Aminations of ketone-derived nitrones have been developed via [3,3]-rearrangement of the intermediates generated upon condensation with imidoyl chlorides. Careful reagent selection provides synthetically attractive amino protecting groups. The enediamide or α'-carbamoyl enamide products can be hydrolyzed to the desired carbonyl, or exposed to electrophiles for further α-functionalization.

We report here a new voltammetric method for the sensitive and selective determination of Hg(2+) based on rational covalent functionalization of graphene oxide with cysteamine to form cysteamine-functionalized graphene through nucleophilic ring-opening reaction between the epoxy of graphene oxide and the amino group of cysteamine in KOH solution.

Amino acids and peptides play an important role in nature as well the pharmaceutical industry. Therefore, transformation of amino into their unnatural derivatives via step atom economical ways is highly demanding. Although, a number methods exist for selective reactions proximal α- or β-C(sp3)-H bond, functionalization distal bonds remains challenge. In recent years, transition metal catalyzed ...

Catalytic chemoselective reactions of innately less reactive functionalities over more are described. A cooperative catalyst comprising a soft Lewis acid/hard Brønsted base enabled activation hydroxyl group an amino group, allowing for nucleophilic addition to electron-deficient olefins. The reaction could be applicable variety alcohols, including pharmaceuticals, without requiring tedious prot...
