Nano silica-H2SO4 is an efficient and mild catalysis system for the regeneration of aldehyde from aldoximes. Ketoximes are converted to amides by Beckmann rearrangement in the presence of nano silica-H2SO4. The reactions are carried out in solvent-free conditions under microwave irradiation (600 W) within 50-120 sec in good yields.

Rearrangement reactions of cycloalkenyl phenol and naphthyl ethers and the acid-catalyzed cyclization of the resulting product were investigated. Claisen rearrangement afforded 2-substituted phenol and naphthol derivatives. Combined Claisen and Cope rearrangement resulted in the formation of 4-substituted phenol and naphthol derivatives. In the case of cycloocthylphenyl ether the consecutive Cl...

we prove the existence of steady 2-dimensional flows, containing a bounded vortex, and approaching a uniform flow at infinity. the data prescribed is the rearrangement class of the vorticity field. the corresponding stream function satisfies a semilinear elliptic partial differential equation. the result is proved by maximizing the kinetic energy over all flows whose vorticity fields are rearra...

The base-induced Sommelet-Hauser rearrangement of N-α-branched benzylic azetidine-2-carboxylic acid ester-derived ammonium salts to obtain α-arylazetidine-2-carboxylic acid esters was investigated. The substrates, two diastereomeric salts (1S,2S,1'S)- and (1R,2R,1'S)-2, showed different reactivities. The rearrangement of (1S,2S,1'S)-2a proceeded with a perfect N-to-C chirality transfer to provi...

uterine leiomyomas/fibroids are the most common pelvic tumors of the female genital tract. the initiators remaining unknown, estrogens and progesterone are considered as promoters of fibroid growth. fibroids are monoclonal tumors showing 40-50% karyo-typically detectable chromosomal abnormalities. cytogenetic aberrations involving chromosomes 6, 7, 12 and 14 constitute the major chromosome abno...

Thermal rearrangement of spirans (14) and (31) yields the xanthones (16,34) and diphenylrnethane (15, 32), respectively. The structure for xanthone (16), isolated from thermolysis, has been established by reduction to xanthene (20) followed by reoxidation to give xanthone (16). Alternatively, methylation of the diphenylmethane (15) followed by heating with selenium dioxide also yields xant...

It has been of interest whether and when the rearrangement of neuronal circuits can be induced after projection patterns are formed during development. Earlier studies using cats reported that the rearrangement of retinogeniculate projections could be induced even after eye-specific segregation has occurred, but detailed and quantitative characterization of this rearrangement has been lacking. ...

INTRODUCTION The rearrangement of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene accounts for approximately 1%-6% of lung adenocarcinoma cases and defines a molecular subgroup of tumors characterized by clinical sensitivity to ALK inhibitors such as crizotinib. This study aimed to identify the relationship between ALK rearrangement and the clinicopathologic characteristics of non-small cell lung can...

Recently, ETS-related gene (ERG) gene rearrangements, phosphatase tensin homologue (PTEN) deletions and EGFR family aberrations were characterized as potential biomarkers for prostate cancer (PCa) patient management. Although ERG gene rearrangement has been identified in approximately 50% of localized prostate cancers in western countries, the prognostic significance of this critical molecular ...
