This study aims to investigate the performance of anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) for removing five polycyclic musks (PCMs), which are common active ingredients of personal care and household cleaning products. A laboratory scale AnMBR system was used in this investigation. Concentrations of the PCMs in both the liquid and biosolids phase were measured to conduct a mass balance analysis a...

With the goal of library generation using a polycyclic derivative 5 having an enamide functional group, a simple and practical, enantioselective synthesis of tetrahydroquinoline derivative 2 was achieved. The phenolic hydroxyl group in compound 2 was utilized as an anchoring site for solid-phase synthesis. The ring closing metathesis approach yielded the desired polycyclic product 5 on solid ph...

We classify polycyclic totally ordered dimension groups, i.e. dimension groups generated by dense embeddings of the lattice Zn in the real line R . Our method is based on geometry of simple geodesics on the modular surface of genus g ≥ 2. The main theorem says that isomorphism classes of the polycyclic totally ordered dimension group are bijective with the reals α modulo the action of the group...

Chromones are introduced into a double-tandem [4(π)+2(π)]·[2(π)+2(π)]·[4(π)+2(π)]·[2(π)+2(π)] synthetic sequence, culminating in photoprotolytic oxametathesis, which leads to an expeditious growth of molecular complexity over a few experimentally simple steps. The overall reaction can potentially be utilized in diversity-oriented synthesis, as it allows for three or more diversity inputs furnis...
