UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The design and applications of antimicrobial polymers is a growing field. Antimicrobial polymers can help to solve the problems associated with the use of conventional antimicrobial agents. Polymers with active functional groups can act as a carrier system for antimicrobial agents. In our study, we aim to prepare and develop some antimicrobial polymers for biomedical ap...

Total syntheses of alkaloid cis-223B and xenovenine are reported in 3 and 4 steps respectively using a two-directional synthesis/triple reductive amination strategy, and their neurotoxic properties assessed.

Highly purified preparations of glutamate synthase catalyze the TPNH-dependent reductive amination of cu-ketoglutarate to form L-glutamate in the presence of either L-glutamine or NH:,. Preparations of the enzyme that lack flavins (FAD and FMN) or the flavins and iron sulfide, catalyzed NH,,-mediated glutamate synthesis, but not glutamine-mediated glutamate synthesis. Participation of enzyme-fl...

The transamination of alkyl-palladium halide N-heterocyclic carbene complexes has enabled the isolation of products that reveal interesting insights into the factors which might be barriers to the development of a palladium-catalysed alkyl-amination reaction.

Dialkylbiaryl phosphines are a valuable class of ligand for Pd-catalyzed amination reactions and have been applied in a range of contexts. This review attempts to aid the reader in the selection of the best choice of reaction conditions and ligand of this class for the most commonly encountered and practically important substrate combinations.

THE TITLE COMPOUND (SYSTEMATIC NAME 12-{[2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]aminomethyl}-4,8-dimethyl-3,14-dioxatricyclo[9.3.0.0(2,4)]tetradec-7-en-13-one monohydrate), C(23)H(31)NO(4)·H(2)O, was obtained by the reaction of tyramine with parthenolide. The configuration of the new chiral center in the title compound is R, establishing the stereospecificity of the amination reaction. The water molecule is ...

Pd(II)-catalyzed intramolecular amination of arenes is developed using either a one- or two-electron oxidant. The reaction protocol tolerates a wide range of deactivating groups including acetyl, cyano, and nitro groups. This catalytic reaction allows expedient syntheses of broadly useful substituted indolines or indoles.

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride is presented as a general reducing agent for the reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones. Procedures for using this mild and selective reagent have been developed for a wide variety of substrates. The scope of the reaction includes aliphatic acyclic and cyclic ketones, aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes, and primary and secondary amines including a variety of wea...

A matrix A can be tested to determine whether it is eventually positive by ex1 amination of its Perron-Frobenius structure, i.e., by computing its eigenvalues and left and right 2 eigenvectors for the spectral radius ρ(A). No such “if and only if” test using Perron-Frobenius prop3 erties exists for eventually nonnegative matrices. The concept of a strongly eventually nonnegative 4 matrix was wa...

A new ruthenium complex catalyzes the amination of primary and secondary alcohols and the regioselective mono- and sequential diamination of diols via the borrowing hydrogen pathway. Several variations on new intra- and intermolecular cyclizations of aminoalcohols, diols and diamines lead to heterocyclic ring systems.
