Sunlight Induced Oxidative Photoactivation of N‐Hydroxyphthalimide Mediated by Naphthalene Imides
Authors: Melone Lucio , Franchi Paola , Lucarini Marco , Punta Carlo 
Published: November 2013

AbstractWe report the aerobic photoactivation of N‐hydroxyphthlimide (NHPI) to the phthalimido‐N‐oxyl (PINO) radical mediated by naphthalene monoimides (NI) for promoting the selective oxidation of alkylaromatics and allylic compounds to the corresponding hydroperoxides. In the absence of either NI or NHPI no oxidation was observed, meaning that the two molecules operate in a synergistic way. Sunlight as well as artificial UV‐light irradiation was necessary in order to perform the process at low temperature (30–35 °C). EPR spectroscopy confirmed the role of NI and oxygen in promoting the formation of the superoxide radicals O2.− which, in turn, increased the concentration of PINO radicals during the UV light irradiation of NI/NHPI mixtures in MeCN. The investigation was extended to NI bearing different substituents on the naphthalene moiety. Finally, the synthesis and application of a unique photocatalyst including the NI and NHPI moieties linked by a suitable spacer was also considered. In this case the photocatalyst showed a substrate‐dependent behaviour with some peculiarities in comparison to the system where NI and NHPI are independent units in the same reacting system. This photocatalytic system paves the way to a non‐thermal, metal‐free approach for CH bond activation towards aerobic oxidation under very mild conditions.magnified image

Authors: Raj Priyanka , Hohenadel Karin , Demers Paul A. , Zahm Shelia Hoar , Blair Aaron 
Published: November 2013

AbstractObjectiveTo assess trends in occupational cancer epidemiology research through a literature review of occupational health and epidemiology journals.MethodsFifteen journals were reviewed from 1991 to 2009, and characteristics of articles that assessed the risk of cancer associated with an occupation, industry, or occupational exposure, were incorporated into a database.ResultsThe number of occupational cancer epidemiology articles published annually declined in recent years (2003 onwards) in the journals reviewed. The number of articles presenting dose–response analyses increased over the review period, from 29% in the first 4 years of review to 49% in the last 4 years.ConclusionThere has been a decrease in the number of occupational cancer epidemiology articles published annually during the review period. The results of these articles help determine the carcinogenicity of workplace exposures and permissible exposure limits, both of which may be hindered with a decline in research. Am. J. Ind.

Hemiconvulsion–hemiplegia–epilepsy syndrome with 1q44 microdeletion: Causal or chance association
Authors: Gupta Rekha , Agarwal Meenal , Boqqula Vijay R. , Phadke Rajendra V. , Phadke Shubha R. 
Published: November 2013

AbstractHemiconvulsion–hemiplegia–epilepsy (HHE) syndrome is a rare syndrome characterized by childhood onset partial motor convulsions, hemiplegia, and epilepsy in sequence. Exact pathogenesis is not clear. Here we are describing a 3‐year‐old girl with HHE syndrome with cytogenetic microarray (CMA) showing deletion of 1.8 Mb in 1q44 region. Along with HHE syndrome, the patient also had global developmental delay, subtle facial dysmorphism, and preaxial polydactyly. Clinical phenotype of 1q44 microdeletion syndrome is quite variable. Main clinical features are microcephaly, seizures, and abnormality of corpus callosum. We compared the patient's phenotype with other patients in 10 previously published papers of 1q44 microdeletion syndrome. HNRNPU and FAM36A are two important genes in the deleted region. HNRNPU gene mediate long range control of SHH gene which is likely explanation of preaxial polydactyly in the present patient. HHE may be a chance co‐occurrence. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Das Verfahren erlaubt die selektive Analyse von Nukleinsäuren in Echtzeit und im Hochdurchsatz. Zwei Arten von Nanoporen finden Anwendung: biologische Nanoporen und Festkörpernanoporen. Dieser Kurzaufsatz beleuchtet die Grundlagen und jüngsten Fortschritte bei der nanoporenbasierten Sequenzierung und Detektion von Nukleinsäuren. Außerdem wird eine neuartige, erst kürzlich eingeführte Nanoporentechnik für die Analyse von Biomolekülen vorgestellt.
Dehydrierende Kreuzkupplungen von C‐H‐Bindungen: vielseitige Verfahren zur Bildung von C‐C‐Bindungen
Authors: Girard Simon A. , Knauber Thomas , Li Chao‐Jun 
Published: November 2013

AbstractIn den vergangenen zehn Jahren wurde eine beeindruckende Zahl an Verfahren entwickelt, die den selektiven Aufbau von C‐C‐Bindungen über die direkte Verknüpfung von zwei unterschiedlichen C‐H‐Bindungen unter oxidativen Bedingungen ermöglichen. Diesen Methoden ist gemeinsam, dass die reaktiven Zwischenstufen durch Aktivierung der beiden C‐H‐Bindungen in situ gebildet werden. Diese Strategie wurde von der Gruppe von Li als dehydrierende Kreuzkupplung (CDC, “cross‐dehydrogenative coupling”) eingeführt und eröffnet abfallarme Synthesealternativen zu klassischen Kupplungsverfahren, die sich auf die Verwendung von vorfunktionalisierten Ausgangsstoffen stützen. Dieser Aufsatz hebt die Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet der dehydrierenden C‐C‐Bindungsknüpfungen hervor und liefert einen umfassenden Überblick über die vorhandenen Verfahren.
Foldamer‐Mediated Remote Stereocontrol: >1,60 Asymmetric Induction
Authors: Byrne Liam , Solà Jordi , Boddaert Thomas , Marcelli Tommaso , Adams Ralph W. , Morris Gareth A. , Clayden Jonathan 
Published: November 2013

AbstractAn N‐terminal L‐α‐methylvaline dimer induces complete conformational control over the screw sense of an otherwise achiral helical peptide foldamer formed from the achiral quaternary amino acids Aib and Ac6c. The persistent right‐handed screw‐sense preference of the helix enables remote reactive sites to fall under the influence of the terminal chiral residues, and permits diastereoselective reactions such as alkene hydrogenation or iminium ion addition to take place with 1,16‐, 1,31‐, 1,46‐ and even 1,61‐asymmetric induction. Stereochemical information may be communicated in this way over distances of up to 4 nm.
Preliminary evaluation of packaging‐content interactions: Mechanical and physicochemical characterization of polylactide bottles
Authors: Capra Priscilla , Briasco Benedetta , Sorrenti Milena , Catenacci Laura , Sachet Marco , Perugini Paola 
Published: November 2013

ABSTRACTBiodegradable materials as polylactide (PLA) are very interesting for cosmetic packaging application. However, these polymers, under environmental conditions or/and chemical treatments, can undergo “aging,” compromising their performances such as container. The aim of this study was the evaluation of mechanical, physicochemical, and organoleptic properties of PLA bottles present in the cosmetic market. In particular, mechanical tests and thermal analyses were applied to study the PLA container degradation under stressed physicochemical conditions. Calorimetric and morphological analyses were applied to evaluate differences between internal and external surface of containers. Results highlighted that the heating process together with chemical treatment determined a significant modification on polymer, leading to a more resistant and fragile material, whereas the only physical or chemical treatment alone showed a plasticizing effect. In conclusion, this study represents a start point to evaluate content–packaging interactions to optimize the choice of PLA polymer as cosmetic packaging. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Authors: Toldy Andrea , Szolnoki Beáta , Csontos István , Marosi György 
Published: November 2013

ABSTRACTThe flame‐retardant efficacy of phosphorus‐containing reactive amine hardeners for epoxy resins is well‐known; however their synthesis often applies hazardous, objectionable reagents. The aim of this work is to develop an effective synthesis method for the preparation of P‐containing amines, which can act as flame‐retardant crosslinking agent in epoxy resins. The syntheses and testing of an aliphatic and two aromatic amines are described: curing properties, glass transition temperature, thermal stability, and flame‐retardant performance of the amines are studied. On the basis of these results, the scaling‐up and the optimization of the synthesis of the phosphorus‐containing aliphatic amine hardener in ReactIR™ in situ FTIR apparatus is discussed. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: November 2013

ABSTRACTWe present a magnetic study of palaeohearths within Lazaret cave (Nice, France) that demonstrates how to recognize fired structures in similar geological contexts. Using magnetic field and susceptibility mapping, excavated and potentially still‐buried palaeohearths of the cave are investigated. Our study reveals some difficulties in conducting a magnetic field survey to detect combustion features in a cave due to noise and ambiguities in anomaly assignment. To overcome these difficulties, discrete measurements and a specific post‐processing methodology were applied to remove the magnetic noise generated by surrounding artificial sources. In addition, experimental and numerical modelling constrained by laboratory examinations of the magnetic mineralogy were performed to better identify the magnetic imprint of such fireplaces. We confirm that a short‐term fireplace produces a thin ash‐bearing layer characterized by a high magnetic susceptibility and a high frequency dependence due to a large proportion of grains of pseudo‐single‐domain (PSD) size. Such a burnt soil layer is the main source of the ca. 50 nT amplitude magnetic field anomaly at a sensor height of 15 cm observed over the excavated palaeohearth, as well as over an experimental hearth.

Characterization of a Novel Flat‐Panel Airlift Photobioreactor With an Internal Heat Exchanger
Authors: Kochem Luce Helena , Da Fré Nicéia Chies , Redaelli Cristiane , Rech Rosane , Marcílio Nilson Romeu 
Published: November 2013

AbstractA novel flat‐panel airlift photobioreactor with an internal heat exchanger (FPA‐IHE) separating the riser and downcomer zones was characterized. The proposed FPA‐IHE has working volume of 2.2 L, height of 450 mm and light path of 50 mm. The overall heat transfer coefficients for the internal heat exchanger and the external surface of the reactor were 47.0 W m–2K–1 and 7.1 W m–2K–1, respectively. The mass transfer coefficient increased with an increase in the volumetric power input until a value of 0.01 s–1. The mixture time decreased with the increase in the superficial gas velocity of the riser. The circulation time ranged from 5 to 6 s. The specific growth rates of Dunaliella tertiolecta and Chlorella minutissima were high, 0.77 d–1 and 0.67 d–1, respectively; thus, the FPA‐IHE photobioreactor is a promising environment for the development of highly productive processes using microalgae.
Chiral Photoresponsive Tetrathiazoles That Provide Snapshots of Folding States
Authors: Nakashima Takuya , Yamamoto Kyohei , Kimura Yuka , Kawai Tsuyoshi 
Published: November 2013

AbstractHerein, we designed chiral photoresponsive tetra(2‐phenylthiazole)s, which induce a diastereoselective 6π‐electrocyclization reaction in a helically folded structure to freeze the conformational interconversions. The folding conformation with one helical turn of tetra(2‐phenylthiazole)s was supported by multiple intramolecular noncovalent interactions including vicinal S⋅⋅⋅N interheteroatom interactions and CH–π and π–π stacking interactions between nonadjacent units, as found in X‐ray crystal structures as well as quantum chemical calculations. The introduction of a chiral group at both ends of tetra(2‐phenylthiazole) dictates the preferential folding into a one‐handed helix conformation by the simultaneous operation of S⋅⋅⋅O and multiple CH–π interactions that involve the chiral end groups. Since the tetra(2‐phenylthiazole)s possess two equivalent photoreactive 6π‐electron systems and the folded conformation is suitable for photoinduced electrocyclization reaction, they undergo a photocyclization reaction in a stereoselective manner to memorize the chirality of the helix in a resulting diastereomeric closed form.
Comparison of Gas Sorption Properties of Neutral and Anionic Metal–Organic Frameworks Prepared from the Same Building Blocks but in Different Solvent Systems
Authors: Choi Myung‐Ho , Park Hye Jeong , Hong Dae Ho , Suh Myunghyun Paik 
Published: November 2013

AbstractTwo different 3D porous metal–organic frameworks, [Zn4O(NTN)2]⋅10 DMA⋅7 H2O (SNU‐150) and [Zn5(NTN)4(DEF)2][NH2(C2H5)2]2⋅8 DEF⋅6 H2O (SNU‐151), are synthesized from the same metal and organic building blocks but in different solvent systems, specifically, in the absence and the presence of a small amount of acid. SNU‐150 is a doubly interpenetrated neutral framework, whereas SNU‐151 is a non‐interpenetrated anionic framework containing diethylammonium cations in the pores. Comparisons of the N2, H2, CO2, and CH4 gas adsorption capacities as well as the CO2 adsorption selectivity over N2 and CH4 in desolvated SNU‐150′ (BET: 1852 m2 g−1) and SNU‐151′ (BET: 1563 m2 g−1) samples demonstrate that the charged framework is superior to the neutral framework for gas storage and gas separation, despite its smaller surface area and different framework structure.
