Reported is a new and efficient strategy for rapid construction of the chiral tetrahydropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolin-3(2H)-one structure from unique tertiary enamide synthons. A Cu(OTf)2/chiral Pybox complex catalyzes the intramolecular enantioselective addit ...
Mycobacterial cell walls are complex structures containing a broad range of unusual lipids, glycolipids and other polymers, some of which act as immunomodulators or virulence determinants. Better understanding of the enzymes involved in export processes wo ...
Developing new strategies and methods to explore new dimensions of the chemical space represents an important goal for organic chemists. One particular synthetic approach that emerged in the last decades is Umpolung: the normal polarity of chemical functio ...
The notion of active sum provides an analogue for groups of what the direct sum is for abelian groups. One natural question then is which groups are the active sum of a family of cyclic subgroups. Many groups have been found to give a positive answer to th ...
In this work, we define a deformation theory for the coupled Kahler-Yang-Mills equations, generalizing work of Sz,kelyhidi on constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics. We use the theory to find new solutions of the equations via deformation of the complex ...
Let G be a finite group with a Sylow 2-subgroup P which is either quaternion or semi-dihedral. Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We prove the existence of exotic endotrivial kG-modules, whose restrictions to P are isomorphic to th ...
The water-soluble ruthenium(II)–mTPPTS complex (mTPPTS= meta-trisulfonated triphenylphosphine) efficiently catalyzes the generation of hydrogen from formic acid in aqueous solution. This catalyst has been immobilized in a hydrophilic silica sup- port to fa ...
This dissertation is concerned with modular representation theory of finite groups, and more precisely, with the study of classes of representations, which we shall term relative endotrivial modules. Given a prime number p, a finite group G of order divisi ...
Hyperbranched polyesters are among the most common hyperbranched polymers. One of the interesting features of hyperbranched polyesters is that they contain unreacted hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups at the linear and terminal structural units, which can ...
Civil engineering projects typically involve a number of design phases, such as preliminary design, tender design and executive design. The required degree of accuracy for the analysis of the behaviour and strength of the structural members increases as a ...
