Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Stephadiamine

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Guang Li, Baochao Yang

An asymmetric synthesis of (+)-stephadiamine has been accomplished featuring (a) an enantioselective dearomatizative Michael addition to generate a quaternary stereocenter; (b) a domino sequence involving reductive generation of nitrone from γ-nitro ketone ...

Wind Tunnel Studies on the Prevention of Particle Accumulation Onto the Bogie of High-Speed Train

Guang Li

When high-speed train runs in the environment with a large number of airborne particles, these particles may accumulate on the bogie of the train, which will further challenge the normal operation of the bogie and reduce the riding comfort and train safety ...

Application of superstatistical analysis on fluctuant surface shear in particle-laden turbulence boundary layer

Guang Li

We report on an application of superstatistics to particle-laden turbulent flow. Four flush-mounted hot-film wall shear sensors were used to record the fluctuations of the wall shear stress in sand-laden flow. By comparing the scaling exponent in sand-free ...

Wind-tunnel experimental studies of the spatial snow distribution over grass and bush surfaces

Guang Li

The snow is one of the most important water resources in grassland in northern and western China, while the wind blowing snow due to the strong wind there is a common phenomenon, which can lead to heavy disasters to harm the local animal husbandry and tran ...

Idealized Study of a Static Electrical Field on Charged Saltating Snow Particles

Michael Lehning, Guang Li, Hongxiang Yu

Strong electric fields, with values of tens kV/m near the surface, are observed during drifting and blowing snow events. Charge separation can significantly affect particle motion. Although several investigations attempted to shed light on the mechanisms o ...

Unified divergent strategy towards the total synthesis of the three sub-classes of hasubanan alkaloids

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Guang Li

Elegant asymmetric synthesis of hasubanan alkaloids have been developed over the past decades. However, a divergent approach leading to all three sub-classes of this family of natural products remains unknown. We report herein the realization of such an en ...

Mountain snow: The source of the mother river—Study of multi-scale and multi-physical process of spatio-temporal evolution of snow distribution

Guang Li

Snow is one of the most active elements on the earth, which is an important mass source of polar ice sheets and alpine glaciers, as well as a main supply for the runoff. Its distribution and evolution have a great impact on global hydrological cycle, ecosy ...

Stereoselective Total Synthesis of Eburnane-Type Alkaloids Enabled by Conformation-Directed Cyclization and Rearrangement

Cyril Piemontesi, Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Guang Li

Controlling the cis C20/C21 relative stereochemistry remains an unsolved issue in the synthesis of eburnane-type indole alkaloids. Provided herein is a simple solution to this problem by developing a unified and diastereoselective synthesis of four represe ...
