Femtosecond degenerate four-wave mixing (fs-DFWM) is applied for the measurement of rotational constants of cyclopropane (C3H6). The rotational coherence method yields a very accurate B0 = 20,093.322(12) MHz and centrifugal distortion constants D(J) and D(JK). To exploit the full resolution of the
Racemic 8-[2-(2-pentyl-cyclopropylmethyl)-cyclopropyl]-octanoic acid (DCP-LA), a linoleic acid derivative with cyclopropane rings instead of cis-double bonds, contains possible four diastereomers such as α,α-, α,β-, β,α-, and β,β-DCP-LA. The present study examined the effect of racemic and
The binding energy spectra of cyclopropane in energy range of 9-19 eV have been measured by the high resolution (e, 2e) spectrometer with 0.5 eV energy resolution. The individual electron momentum distributions for the outer valence orbitals including the two Jahn-Teller splitting components for the
The complex vibronic spectra and the nonradiative decay dynamics of the cyclopropane radical cation (CP+) are simulated theoretically with the aid of a time-dependent wave packet propagation approach using the multireference time-dependent Hartree scheme. The theoretical results are compared with
[structure: see text] B3LYP/6-31G* calculations have been used to investigate the origins of the relative barrier heights for the degenerate Cope rearrangements of semibullvalene (1), barbaralane (2), bullvalene (3), and dihydrobullvalene (4). We conclude from our calculations that, of the four
Broccoli (Brassica oleracea L.) floral tissues rapidly differentiate and grow before harvest and then senesce rapidly after harvest. Associated with this postharvest deterioration is an increase in ethylene production by florets. Two cDNA clones having high nucleotide identity to sequences encoding
2-(dideuteriomethylene)-1,1-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)cyclopropane (d(2)-1) undergoes degenerate rearrangement in both singlet- and triplet-sensitized electron-transfer photoreactions. Nanosecond time-resolved absorption spectroscopy on laser flash photolysis of the unlabeled 1 with
Advances in Raman spectroscopy are enabling more comprehensive measurement of microbial cell chemical composition. Advantages include results returned in near real-time and minimal sample preparation. In this research, Raman spectroscopy is used to analyze E. coli with engineered solvent tolerance,
Two laboratory-scale anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBRs) were built to investigate the effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) on their performance, and the recovery phase was also examined. Results showed that the addition of ZnO-NPs with 0.4 mg/L caused significant deteriorations of AnMBR
The Registry of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation reported that 31,157 transplantations were performed throughout the world until 1993, including 26,704 heart transplantations, 1,567 heart-lung transplantations, 1,943 single lung transplantations and 943 bilateral or
This Account highlights William von Eggers Doering's important discoveries in many fields of chemistry. His synthetic and mechanistic studies have contributed to areas including non-benzenoid aromatics, carbenes, pericyclic reactions, and diradical intermediates. Doering's synthesis with L. H. Knox
13C NMR spectroscopy of the 2-methyl-2-butyl-1-13C cation (13C-labeled tert-amyl cation) indicates that interchange of the inside and outside carbons occurs via a barrier of 19.5 +/- 2.0 kcal/mol. A plausible mechanism involves hydride migration in the proposed 2-pentyl cation 4 to form 3-pentyl
Radical formation through hydrogen abstraction and C-C and O-O homolytic bond cleavage from selected molecules is investigated by use of natural orbital functional theory in its PNOF5 natural orbital functional implementation, and the results are compared to high-level ab initio complete active
An original and recyclable chiral bidentate aniline-sulfoxide-based directing group has been developed. This auxiliary allows challenging stereoselective Pd-catalyzed direct functionalization of small cycloalkanes through C-aryl and C-alkyl bond formation. Although moderate diastereoselectivities
