Wen-Sen He et al.
Bioresource technology, 114, 1-5 (2012-04-03)
The effects of solvents with different log P values, and of lipases on the synthesis of water-soluble plant stanol derivatives were investigated. Results showed that conversion in solvents with log P<0.37 was mainly controlled by the hydrophobicity of the solvent

Biomaterials, 23(22), 4345-4352 (2002-09-11)
Several homopolymers and copolymers of 2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DEAEM) and poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMEM) were synthesized using anionic polymerization initiated by potassium t-butoxide. The polymers were characterized by average molecular weight, polydispersity and monomeric unit composition. A very narrow

The Stevens rearrangement of N-allylic alpha-aryl amino acid-derived ammonium salts and the Sommelet-Hauser rearrangement of N-benzylic alpha-alkyl amino acid-derived ammonium salts are shown to proceed with remarkably high levels of diastereoselectivity. The methods presented in this work provide new routes

Alpha-fluoro-alpha-aryl-ketones were synthesized by the Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl bromides with either alpha-fluoroketones or their corresponding silyl enol ethers. The direct arylation with an alpha-fluoroketone requires a strong base, such as potassium tert-butoxide, and under these conditions the presence of

The direct functionalization of C-H bonds has drawn the attention of chemists for almost a century. C-H activation has mainly been achieved through four metal-mediated pathways: oxidative addition, electrophilic substitution, σ-bond metathesis and metal-associated carbene/nitrene/oxo insertion. However, the identification of
