high yield photolytic reduction of a series of thiaphosphoranes z p sr to give z p h with uv-light-induced tri-n-butyltin hydride through phosphoranyl radical z p is described. this reaction is inhibited by a-methylstyrene and initiated by a radical initiator such as azobisisobutyronitrile

Transition metal-catalyzed radical-radical cross-coupling reactions provide innovative methods for C-C and C-heteroatom bond construction. A theoretical study was performed to reveal the mechanism and selectivity of the copper-catalyzed C-N radical-radical cross-coupling reaction. The concerted coupling pathway, in which a C-N bond is formed through the direct nucleophilic addition of a carbon ...

Background: Free radicals and reactive oxygen species(ROS) are the most important factors in formation of oxidative stress reaction. Now, radical damage has been suggested to contribute to a wide variety of diseases such as Alzheimer, atherosclerosis and cancer. Transition metal ions in the presence of the various biomolecules produce these active compounds. The aim of this study is introducing...

The electron impact-induced fragmentation of 2,2-dimethyland 2-ethyI-l,findandione, 1 and 2, and their isomers, 3-isopropylideneand 3-propylidenephthalide, 3 and 4, respectively, was studied in detail by mass-analysed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) and collision-induced dissociation (CID-MIKE) spectrometry, including 'H and I3Clabelled analogues of 1 and 2. In all regimes of internal energy, the mol...

Philosophers inspired by Wittgenstein have been waging a guerrilla war against compositional, truth-conditional semantics (CTCS) since the rise to dominance of that approach to the study of meaning in the early 1970s. The neo-Wittgensteinian resistance involves two elements: first, a focus on the way our assessment of the truth conditions of sentences changes in various, seemingly open-ended wa...

Radical trachelectomy, which leaves the uterus intact, has emerged as a desirable surgical option for eligible women with early-stage cervical cancer who wish to preserve fertility. The available data suggest excellent obstetrical outcomes with radical trachelectomy, and no differences in sexual responding between radical trachelectomy and radical hysterectomy. There is a need to examine the ef...
