Conditions for an efficient ligand-, copper-, and amine-free palladium-catalyzed Sonogashira reaction of aryl iodides and bromides with terminal alkynes have been developed. Critical to the success of this new protocol is the use of tetrabutylammonium acetate as the base. Noteworthy features of this method are room-temperature conditions and the tolerance of a broad range of functional groups i...

A facile synthetic route towards pharmaceutically interesting β-keto-sulfone derivatives by tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI)/tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) mediated oxidative coupling of readily prepared enamides with economical sulfonylhydrazides is described. The corresponding β-keto-sulfone compounds were obtained in moderate to good yields. The present method is metal-free and base-free an...

Some 1,2,4-triazole derivatives were titrated potentiometrically with tetrabutylammonium hydroxide in four non-aqueous solvents such as isopropyl alcohol, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), tert-butyl alcohol and acetonitrile, and the half-neutralization potential values and the corresponding pKa values were determined for all cases.

Nanocellulose has a variety of advantages, which make the material most suitable for use in biomedical devices such as wound dressings. The material is strong, allows for production of transparent films, provides a moist wound healing environment, and can form elastic gels with bioresponsive characteristics. In this study, we explore the application of nanocellulose as a bioink for modifying fi...

some 2-iminothiazolidin-4-ones have been synthesized by the reaction of dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates with thiosemicarbazones. the reaction was performed in the presence of 10 mol% of triphenylphosphine and tetrabutylammonium bromide as a phase transfer catalyst in water as a green solvent. all the synthesized compounds were characterized by their physical and spectral data.

1. 3Hand 35S-labelled heparan sulphate was isolated from monolayers of human lung fibroblasts and subjected to degradations by (a) deaminative cleavage and (b) periodate oxidation/alkaline elimination. Fragments were resolved by geland ion-exchangechromatography. 2. Deaminative cleavage of the radioactive glycan afforded mainly disaccharides with a low content of ester-sulphate and free sulphat...

Infection with the helminth parasite Schistosoma mansoni induces a pronounced Th2-type response that is associated with significant IgE production. To better understand how the parasite drives these responses, we investigated the relative roles of proteins and carbohydrates in driving Th2-type and/or IgE responses using a murine model of intranasal sensitization with soluble egg Ags (SEA) of Sc...

Sustainable Chemistry The cover image for article number 2100391 by Siegfried R. Waldvogel and co-workers represents a method to obtain selectively 5-iodovanillin, as an advanced building block, from side-stream lignins degradation using electrochemically generated periodate. In times of climate changes the utilization lignin renewable feedstock fine chemicals is considered, would rival petrole...
