Alkylation of biphenyl with 1-octene was investigated using ((Al+C3H7Cl)+C2H4) catalysts. The catalytic activity of ((Al+C3H7Cl)+C2H4) for the alkylation was studied at different temperatures, mol ratios of biphenyl to 1-octene, reaction times and catalyst concentrations. It was shown that using this catalyst has more advantagous than another catalysts. Experiments show that by increasing t...

A genetic algorithm is used to optimize the modified benzene alkylation process. Based on the previous studies, the modified process increases ethylbenzene selectivity and decreases energy consumption at the same time. The inlet ethylene flow rate of each alkylation reactor is optimized in order to reduce the chance of transalkylation reactions but increase ethylbenzene selectivity. The byprodu...

Alkylating agents, mechlorethamine and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, induce the production of plasminogen activator in U-87MG cells, an alkylation DNA repair deficient (Mer-) human glioblastoma strain. Enzyme induction was not observed, however, in U-178MG and SH-101 cells, alkylation repair proficient (Mer+) glioblastoma strains, or in HeLa cells, which reactivated and supported well t...

NHC-Pd-PEPPSI-catalyzed α-alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols and tandem Suzuki–Miyaura-coupling/α-alkylation reactions under borrowing hydrogen conditions were reported.

alpha-Diphenylphosphinoyl ketones are selectively and sequentially alkylated at the alpha-position. Double lithiation and selective alkylation occurs at the less stabilised gamma-position. Dephosphinoylation of the alkylation products gives ketones. Mono-alkylation is selective, highly crystalline intermediates are formed and a one-pot strategy is possible. The method is ideally suited for the ...

A concise synthetic strategy has been developed for the synthesis of the macrolactone core 2 of a unique polyketide callyspongiolide 1. The key features of the strategy included an Evan's asymmetric alkylation, diastereoselective Michael type alkylation, Brown's asymmetric allylation reaction, an allylic alkylation of an activated Z-allylic alcohol and an intramolecular Z-selective intramolecul...

Alkylating agents are commonly used to treat cancer. Although base excision repair (BER) is a major pathway for repairing DNA alkylation damage, under certain conditions, the initiation of BER produces toxic repair intermediates that damage healthy tissues. The initiation of BER by the alkyladenine DNA glycosylase (AAG, a.k.a. MPG) can mediate alkylation-induced cytotoxicity in specific cells i...

The alkylating potential of beta-propiolactone (BPL), beta-butyrolactone (BBL), gamma-butyrolactone, and delta-valerolactone, which can be formed by the in vivo nitrosation of primary amino acids, was investigated kinetically. The nucleophile NBP, 4-(p-nitrobenzyl)pyridine, a trap for alkylating agents, was used as an alkylation substrate. The alkylation reactions were performed under mimicked ...
