Reactions of amines with ozone and chlorine: Two novel oxidative methods to evaluate the N-DBP formation potential from dissolved organic nitrogen

Urs von Gunten, Karim-Alexandre Essaied, Lucy Victoria Brown

The composition of oxidant-reactive dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) is poorly characterized, although its ozonation is likely to form a great variety of disinfection by-products containing a nitrogen-oxygen bond (NDBPs). In this study, two chemical oxidat ...

Applying a Trojan Horse Strategy to Ruthenium Complexes in the Pursuit of Novel Antibacterial Agents

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor, Quentin François Antoine Laurent

Siderophores are iron chelators secreted by bacteria to scavenge iron(III) from their surrounding environment. They possess their own internalization pathway that is sufficiently unselective to be hijacked, making them suitable for Trojan Horse strategy ap ...

Dearomatization of electron poor six-membered N-heterocycles through [3+2] annulation with aminocyclopropanes

Jérôme Waser, Johannes Preindl, Shyamal Chakrabarty

Many abundant and highly bioactive natural alkaloids contain an indolizidine skeleton. A simple, high yielding method to synthesize this scaffold from N-heterocycles was developed. A wide range of pyridines, quinolines and isoquinolines reacted with donor- ...

Synergistic effect of carboxylic and amine ligands on the synthesis of CdSe nanocrystals

Martinus Gijs, Virendra Kumar Parashar

We demonstrate the drastic improvement in absorbance and photoluminescence (UV-PL) of CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) upon adding both a carboxylic acid and an amine ligand to the cadmium acetate green chemistry source. We combined carboxylate complexes of lauric ...

Switchable [3+2] and [4+2] Heteroannulation of Primary Propargylamines with Isonitriles to Imidazoles and 1,6-Dihydropyrimidines: Catalyst Loading Enabled Reaction Divergence

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Shuo Tong

Isonitrile 1 due to its carbene-like reactivity serves generally as a one-carbon synthon in a diverse set of organic transformations. We report in this article that the isocyano group can also act as a polarized triple bond to undergo, as a two-atom syntho ...
