The title compound, C15H24O2 {systematic name: 1-[6-hy-droxy-7-(propan-2-yl)-4-methyl-idene-2,3,3a,4,5,6,7,7a-octa-hydro-1H-inden-1-yl]ethanone} was iso-la-ted from A. reticulata by column chromatography over silica gel by gradient solvent elution. The mol-ecule comprises a bi-cyclo-[4.3.0]nonane ring bearing acet-oxy, hy-droxy and isopropyl substituents, and an exocyclic double bond on the cyc...

Macrosurfactants consisting of water-soluble poly(vinylcaprolactam) (PVCap) or poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) segments with comparatively shorter hydrophobic poly(styrene) (PS) poly(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene) (PPFS) were used as kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs). These synthesized 2-cyanopropan-2-yl N-methyl-N-(pyridin-4-yl)dithiocarbamate switchable reversible addition–fragmentation chain tra...

The objective of this study was to synthesize and characterize particles as a drug-delivery platform for gliomas, a highly advanced and invasive stage of brain tumor with poor prognosis. Poly(aminoethyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) particles were prepared by suspension polymerization and poly(aminoethyl methacrylate-co-poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) particles were prepared by emuls...

The title compound is a co-crystal of the cis and trans isomers, namely cis-bis-[1,1,1,5,5,5-hexa-fluoro-pentane-2,4-dionato(1-)-κ(2)O,O']bis-(4-phenyl-pyridine N-oxide-κO)copper(II)-trans-bis-[1,1,1,5,5,5-hexa-fluoro-pentane-2,4-dionato(1-)-κ(2)O,O']bis(4-phenyl-pyridine N-oxide-κO)copper(II) (2/1), [Cu(C(5)HF(6)O(2))(2)(C(11)H(9)NO)(2)]. In both isomers, the coordination geometry of the Cu(2+...

Mixtures containing ammonia-borane and sec-butylamine-borane remain liquid throughout the hydrogen release process that affords tri(N-sec-butyl)borazine and polyborazylene. Concentrated solutions with metal catalysts afford >5 wt% H(2) in 1 h at 80 °C and addition of (EMIM)EtSO(4) ionic liquid co-solvent eliminates competing formation of insoluble linear poly(aminoborane) (EMIM = 1-ethyl-3-meth...
