The solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectra of protons, deuterons, and carbons in the ligands of paramagnetic coordination complexes including acetylacetonate complexes, amino acid complexes, hydrates of the first row transition metals, and lanthanide acetates have been obtained. It has been known for some time that, for small paramagnetic species in solution, deuterium NMR can g...

Solvent deuterium isotope effects support the view that the p-N02 and p-Me derivatives of benzaldehyde S.S-diethylacetal undergo silver ion-promoted hydrolysis in water by different mechanisms. scheme common [3] for O.O-acetals in the presence of H30 + ions, while for the latter we suggested a bimolecular A2-type mechanism with one (or more) water molecules in the slow phase of step (3). The co...

The enantioselective Michael addition using water as both nucleophile and solvent has to date proved beyond the ability of synthetic chemists. Herein, the direct, enantioselective Michael addition of water in water to prepare important β-hydroxy carbonyl compounds using whole cells of Rhodococcus strains is described. Good yields and excellent enantioselectivities were achieved with this method...

Therapeutics developed and sold as racemates can exhibit a limited therapeutic index because of side effects resulting from the undesired enantiomer (distomer) and/or its metabolites, which at times, forces researchers to abandon valuable scaffolds. Therefore, most chiral drugs are developed as single enantiomers. Unfortunately, the development of some chirally pure drug molecules is hampered b...

abstract this study was carried out to investigate the hepatoprotective effect of deuterium depleted water with satureja rechingeri essential oil on liver damage. for this purpose, the adult male rats were divided into 16 groups. the negative control group used tap water in 14 days following dmso i.p injection at day 15th. the treatment group with acetaminophen received tap water in 14 days fol...

Deuterium thermal desorption spectra were investigated on the samples of austenitic steel 18Cr10NiTi pre-implanted at 295 K with deuterium ions in the dose range from 8 × 10(14) to 2.7 × 10(18) D/cm(2). The kinetics of structural transformation development in the steel layer was traced from deuterium thermodesorption spectra as a function of deuterium concentration. Three characteristic regions...
