Development of methods for the synthesis of large combinatorial libraries of macrocyclic compounds

Mischa Schüttel

Macrocycles have raised much interest in the pharmaceutical industry due to their ability to bind challenging targets while often still being able to cross membranes to reach intracellular proteins. However, the development of macrocyclic ligands to new di ...

Inkjet-Printed Carbon Nanotube Electrodes Modified with Dimer-captosuccinic Acid-Capped Fe3O4 Nanoparticles on Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanosheets for Single-Drop Determination of Trifluoperazine

Hubert Girault, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Milica Jovic

Here we report the design of a disposable single-drop voltammetric sensor for the quantitative determination of antipsy-chotic drug trifluoperazine (TFP). The sensor was build using inkjet-printed carbon nanotube (CNT) electrodes which were modified with d ...

Stability and electronic properties of magnetic peapods

László Forró, Bálint Náfrádi

We report on the temperature stability of N@C-60 peapods using electron spin resonance. The atomic nitrogen escapes at higher temperatures in the peapod than in the crystalline form. We also report on the synthesis of novel magnetic fullerene peapod, a ful ...

Reactivity and Catalytic Activity of a Robust Ruthenium(II)-Triphos Complex

Paul Joseph Dyson

The ruthenium(II)-triphos acetato complex [RuCl(OAc)(k3-triphos)] (triphos = (PPh2CH2)3CMe) has been found to be an active catalyst precursor for the hydrogenation of 1-alkenes under relatively mild conditions (5-50 bar H2, 50 °C). In contrast to related t ...

Hydrogenation and hydroformylation in ionic liquids, water and biphasic systems

Christian Ohlin

This work covers homogeneous and biphasic catalysis in ionic liquids and water. The work presented herein is divided into two major parts: catalytic hydrogenation and catalytic hydroformylation. The first part also serves as an introduction to catalysis in ...
