An efficient ligand design strategy towards boosting asymmetric induction was proposed, which simply employed inorganic nanosheets to modify a-amino acids and has been demonstrated to be effective in vanadium-catalyzed e...
beta-Lactams with contiguous tetra- and trisubstituted carbon centers were prepared in a highly enantioselective manner through 4-exo-trig cyclization of axially chiral enolates generated from readily available a-amino a...
A ruthenium trichloride complex has been loaded into an aluminium metalorganic framework (MOF), MOF-253, by post-synthetic modification to give MOF-253-Ru. MOF-253 contains open bipyridine sites that are available to bin...
Based on an experimental observation, it has been controversially suggested in a study (Kurotobi et al., Science 2011, 33, 613) that a single molecule of water can completely be localized within the subnano-space inside ...
Two triazine-based unconventional dendrimers were prepared and characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. Differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing microscopy, and powder...
Visible-light-driven H2 evolution based on Dye/TiO2/Pt hybrid photocatalysts was investigated for a series of (E)-3-(5'-{4-[bis(4-R1-phenyl)amino]phenyl}-4,4'-(R2)2-2,2'-bithiophen-5-yl)-2-cyanoacrylic acid dyes. Efficie...
In this work, we have rationally designed and synthesized two new reagents (L1 and L2), each bearing a pendant aldehyde functionality. This aldehyde group can take part in cyclization reactions with beta- or gamma-amino ...
