background: influenza outbreak has become a great lifethreateningdisease in the world. nasal vaccines can inducesystemic igg and mucosal iga antibody responses, whichestablish two layers of immune defense against the infectiouspathogens like influenza. mucosal vaccines must overcomeseveral limitations, including the mucociliary clearance andinefficient uptake of soluble antigens. therefore, nas...

The kinetics and mechanism for degradation of omethoate (OMT) by catalytic ozonation with Fe(III)-loaded activated carbon (Fe@AC) were investigated in this study with focus on identification of degradation byproducts. The rate constants of OMT reacting with ozone and hydroxyl radical ((·)OH) were determined to be 0.04 and 5.3×10(8) M(-1) s(-1) at pH 7.5 and 20 °C, respectively. OMT was predomin...

The alkane elimination reaction between Salen((t)Bu)H(2) ligands and diethylaluminum bromide was used to prepare three Salen aluminum bromide compounds salen((t)Bu)AlBr (1) (salen = N,N'-ethylenebis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylideneimine)), salpen((t)Bu)AlBr (2) (salpen = N,N'-propylenebis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylideneimine)), and salophen((t)Bu)AlBr (3) (salophen = N,N'-o-phenylenenebis(3,5-di-ter...

The reaction of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate with OH-acid such as 2-naphthol in the presence of trimethyl or triphenyl phosphite under solvent-free conditions produce oxaphosphaphenanthrene derivatives in good yields. Also, the reaction of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and trimethyl phosphite in the presence of 1-naphthol leads to succinate derivatives in excellent yields. Using triethyl p...

In the mol-ecule of the title compund [systematic name: N-butyl-N-ethyl-2,5,6-trimethyl-7-(2,4,6-trimethyl-phen-yl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-amine], C(24)H(34)N(4), the pyrrolopy-rimidine ring system is nearly planar, its five- and six-membered rings forming a dihedral angle of 5.3 (2)°. The benzene ring is nearly orthogonal to the central ring system. The N atom carrying the ethyl and n-bu...

Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) are extensively used as synthetic bone grafts, but their poor toughness limits their use to non-load-bearing applications. Reinforcement through introduction of fibers and yarns has been evaluated in various studies but always resulted in a decrease in elastic modulus or bending strength when compared to the CPC matrix. The aim of the present work was to improve...

An efficient directed Claisen reaction between tert-butyl propionate and phenyl propionate is described. This enables a practical synthesis of 6-ethyl-2,2,5-trimethyl-4H-1,3-dioxin-4-one and thereby (Z)-[(4-ethylidene-2,2,5-trimethyl-4H-1,3-dioxin-6-yl)oxy]trimethylsilane, a key building block in our synthesis of macrolide antibiotics. The three-step route elaborated for the preparation of the ...

The N-H and C=O bonds in the title compound, C(9)H(9)Cl(2)NO(3)S, are trans to each other, similar to what is observed in 2,2,2-trimethyl-N-(phenyl-sulfon-yl)acetamide and 2,2,2-trimethyl-N-(4-methyl-phenyl-sulfon-yl)acetamide. The bond parameters in the title compound are also similar to those in the aforementioned two structures. N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the mol-ecules into chains running...

The title Pb(II) coordination polymer, [PbCl(2)(C(13)H(14)N(2))], was prepared by the hydro-thermal reaction of PbCl(2) with 4,4,-trimethyl-enedipyridine in a 1:1 ratio. It exhibits a two-dimensional layered structural motif consisting of PbCl(2) chains and the flexible bridged 4,4'-trimethyl-enedipyridine ligand. The connections result in a cavity of about 4 × 15 Å.
