Contorted polycyclic aromatics.

CONSPECTUS: This Account describes a body of research in the design, synthesis, and assembly of molecular materials made from strained polycyclic aromatic molecules. The strain in the molecular subunits severely distorts the aromatic molecules away from planarity. We coined the term "contorted aromatics" to describe this class of molecules. Using these molecules, we demonstrate that the curved ...

Mesonephric kidney--a stem cell factory?

Mesonephros is a vestige, transient renal organ that functions only during embryonic development. The anatomy, position and even cellular fate of the mesonephric kidney varies drastically among mammalian species. The origin of mesonephros from intermediate mesoderm and the dependence of its differentiation on the nephric or Wolffian duct have been well established. Commonly accepted is also the...

Hydrocarbon Structure and Chemistry: Aromatics

Hydrocarbons are organic compounds consisting of C-C and C-H bonds. Carbon has a valence of four and thus requires four electrons or bonds to complete its octet in the neutral state. Hydrogen has a valence of one and thus requires a single electron or bond to complete its "duet" in the neutral state. Thus in hydrocarbons carbon can form neutral bonding arrangements by forming single bonds with ...
