The helix-sense selective polymerization of achiral monomers by homochiral catalysts was investigated. Polymerization of chiral carbodiimides (N-(R)-2,6-(dimethylheptyl)-N'-phenylcarbodiimide) by achiral catalysts yields polymers that undergo mutorotation at elevated temperatures, thus illustrating that these chains are formed under kinetic rather than thermodynamic control. Building on this ob...

We derive sets of functional equations for the eight vertex model by exploiting an analogy with the functional equations of the chiral Potts model. From these equations we show that the fusion matrices have special reductions at certain roots of unity. We explicitly exhibit these reductions for the 3,4 and 5 order fusion matrices and compare our formulation with the algebra of Sklyanin.

The constants of the extraction equilibrium and the distribution for dichloromethane as an organic solvent having low dielectric constant of metal cations with chiral Schiff bases, benzaldehydene-(S)-2-amino-3-phenylpropanol (I), ohydroxybenzaldehydene-(S)-2-amino-3-phenyl-propanol (II), benzaldehydene-(S)-2amino-3-methylbutanol (III) with anionic dyes [4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol mono sodium m...

The present study describes a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous determination of S-RRR and R-SSS nebivolol (nebivolol enantiomers) in human plasma using solid phase extraction technique. Method of both S-RRR and R-SSS nebivolol (nebivolol enantiomers) has been developed and validated using racemic nebivolol D4 as an internal standard. Analytes...

a simple and efficient one-pot, three-component strecker reaction of protected amino acids, aromatic aldehydes, and trimethylsilyl cyanide has been developed for the synthesis of chiral α-amino nitriles. the reaction was carried out in the presence of catalytic amount of phosphotungstic acid (h3[p(w3o10)4]) as an environmentally friendly catalyst.

The unusual tunneling effects of massless chiral fermions (mCF) and massive chiral fermions (MCF) in a single layer graphene and bilayer graphene represent some of the most bizarre quantum transport phenomena in condensed matter system. Here we show that in a two-dimensional semiconductor with Rashba spin-orbit coupling (R2DEG), the real-spin chiral-like tunneling of electrons at normal inciden...

Venlafaxine (VEN), which was introduced into the therapy in 1990s, is one of the most often used antidepressants. The monitoring of its level in the human organism is recommended, particularly in the case of a patient suffering from other illnesses and treated with different drug substances interfering with VEN. The most popular diagnostic material for the quantitation of VEN is blood. The pres...

Chiral pyrrolidines and pyrrolizidines with spirooxindole ring systems are the central skeletons for numerous alkaloids and pharmacologically important compounds. Gelesmine, pseudotabersonine, formosanine, isoformosanine, morroniside and mitraphylline are some of the alkaloids containing spirooxindole ring systems. Derivatives of spirooxindole find very wide biological applications as anti micr...

This paper is a continuation of our previous work [18]. We obtain two more functional relations for the eigenvalues of the transfer matrices for the sl(3) chiral Potts model at q2 = −1. This model, up to a modification of boundary conditions, is equivalent to the threelayer three-dimensional Zamolodchikov model. From these relations we derive the Bethe ansatz equations. On leave of absence from...
