The hyperfine coupling constants (HFCCs) of all the butyl radicals that can be produced by muonium (Mu) addition to butene isomers (1- and 2-butene and isobutene) have been calculated, to compare with the experimental results for the muon and proton HFFCs for these radicals reported in paper II (Fleming, D. G.; et al. J. Phys. Chem. A 2011, 10.1021/jp109676b) that follows. The equilibrium geome...

A green chemistry-based highly regioselective synthesis of ethyl (9-anthryl)glyoxylate was achieved by solvent-free Friedel-Crafts reaction at r. t. Several derivatives of ethyl (9-anthryl)glyoxylate were also synthesized. Ethyl (9-anthryl)hydroxyacetate was obtained almost quantitatively by reduction of ethyl (9-anthryl)glyoxylate with NaBH4, and (9-anthryl)methoxyacetic acid was prepared by m...

Biodiesel fuels consist of a mixture different fatty acid esters. The thermophysical properties the esters are decisive for combustion and storage. Especially density viscosity influence, e.g., energy density, spray quality lubrication in diesel engine. For some esters, several studies on can be found literature wide pressure reasonably temperature range. However, data at high pressures as well...

Acetaminophen, a common analgesic/antipyretic, is a frequent cause of acute liver failure in Western countries. The development of an effective cure against acetaminophen hepatotoxicity is crucial. Ethyl pyruvate, an ethyl ester derivative of pyruvic acid, has been identified as a possible candidate against acetaminophen hepatotoxicity in animal experiments. However, the mode of the hepatoprote...

background : vitiligo is an acquired disease of skin that presents with depigmented patches due to lack of melanocytes in the epidermis. accumulation of toxic free radicals like hydrogen peroxide in the epidermis may be responsible for melanocytes death. since ethyl vanillate (vanillic acid ethyl ester) is a strong hydrogen peroxide scavenger, it may be effective against vitiligo. this study wa...
