The indole framework has become widely identified as a "privileged" structure with representation in over 3000 natural isolates and 40 medicinal agents of diverse therapeutic action. A new strategy for asymmetric access to this important pharmacaphore has been accomplished that involves the amine catalyzed alkylation of indoles with alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes. Central to these studies has...

The title compound, [C(8)H(18)N](+)·[B(5)O(6)(OH)(4)](-), has been synthesized under mild solvothermal conditions in the presence of N,N-dimethyl-cyclo-hexyl-amine acting as a template. The structure consists of penta-borate [B(5)O(6)(OH)(4)](-) anions connected through O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional framework, with large channels along [100], [010] and [001] directions. The [C(8...

It is well known that small amount Piperazine (PZ) enhance the CO2 absorption properties of tertiary amine aqueous solution. Because the tert-amine has the lower heat of reaction, the blended amine solution, tert-amine with PZ, is attractive for low energy absorbent. There are some reports about the investigation of the mechanism of the blended amine solution, however, there still a difficulty ...

We report here the efficient reduction of CO2 to CO by cobalt aminopyridine macrocycles. The effect of the pendant amines on catalysis was investigated. Several cobalt complexes based on the azacalix[4](2,6)pyridine framework with different substitutions on the pendant amine groups have been synthesized (R = H (1), Me (2), and allyl (3)), and their electrocatalytic properties were explored. Und...

The title compound, C(7)H(6)N(4)S, was synthesized by reacting pyridine-4-carboxylic acid and thio-semicarbazide. The asymmetric unit contains two independent mol-ecules, which present different conformations, the dihedral angles between the thia-diazole and pyridine rings being 18.2 (2) and 30.3 (2)°. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds involving the amine groups as donors lin...

Different alkylamine molecules were post-synthetically tethered to the unsaturated Cr(III) centers in the metal-organic framework MIL-101. The resultant metal-organic frameworks show almost no N2 adsorption with significantly enhanced CO2 capture under ambient conditions as a result of the interaction between amine groups and CO2 molecules. Given the extraordinary stability, high CO2 uptake, ul...

in this paper, we report on the synthesis of cu nanoparticles through a single-precursor route by controlling the growth temperature. selective adsorption of oleylamine on various crystal planes may play an important role in the growth process. the understanding of this self-assembling process will help us develop reliable and reproducible methods to synthesis other three dimensional nanostruct...

An enantioselective total synthesis of the Strychnos alkaloid (+)-minfiensine has been accomplished. Prominent features of this synthesis include (i) a new enantioselective organocatalytic Diels-Alder/amine cyclization sequence to build the central tetracyclic pyrroloindoline framework in four steps from commercial materials and (ii) a 6-exo-dig radical cyclization to forge the final piperidiny...

Amine-modified mesoporous SBA-15 adsorbent has been prepared by impregnation method using tetraethylenepentamine. The samples of this modified SBA-15 have been characterized by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm and FT-IR. The adsorption capacity of CO2 on unmodified and modified samples were measured at high pressure...
