Abstract β‐Methyl‐α‐methylene‐γ‐butyrolactone (MMBL) was synthesized and then was polymerized in an N,N ‐dimethylformamide (DMF) solution with 2,2‐azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) initiation. The homopolymer of MMBL was soluble in DMF and acetonitrile. MMBL was homopolymerized without competing depolymerization from 50 t…

A remarkable and unprecedented increase in catalyst selectivity in dendrimer catalysis is observed for the Pyrphos-Pd catalysed allylic amination of 1,3-diphenyl-1-acetoxypropene as a function of the dendrimer generation (with up to 64 metal sites). This steady increase in ee-values for the allylic amination is less p…

Abstract Two kinds of regenerated cellulose membranes for hemodialysis were prepared from casting solutions of N ‐methylmorpholine‐ N ‐oxide (NMMO) and cuprammonium (denoted NMMO membranes and cuprammonium membranes, respectively). The concentration of cellulose in the casting solution investigated was 6–8 wt %. The p…

IR irradiation of a boron thin film coated on a Si(001) wafer in the presence of Mg vapor in an Ar/O2 atmosphere results in the formation of magnesium borate nanotubes (see picture). The structural characterizations demonstrated that the nanotubes are single crystalline orthorhombic Mg3B2O6 (3 MgO⋅B2O3). The formation…

N-acetylneuraminate lyase (NAL) and dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS) belong to the NAL subfamily of (betaalpha)(8)-barrels. They share a common catalytic step but catalyze reactions in different biological pathways. By rational design, we have introduced various mutations into the NAL scaffold from Escherichia col…

Abstract Rheological properties of nylon‐1212 have been studied by means of Haake Rheometer. The effect of shear rate and temperature on the apparent vicosity of nylon‐1212 was discussed. A correlation of non‐Newtonian index with the temperature was obtained. The results showed that the apparent viscosity decreases wi…

By highly correlated ab initio methods and DFT calculations, we have shown that alkaline metals can stabilize planar tetracoordinate carbon-containing molecules with the C(C4) skeleton. This family of molecules is C5M2, where M is an alkaline metal. The stability of these compounds is rationalized in terms of the delo…

The hole story? A super-supertetrahedral anionic cluster of 214 atoms and 80 tetrahedral units is prepared. The crystal structure has finite tetrahedral units of [Cd16In64S134]44− ions composed of four T4 supertetrahedra (see picture). Each cluster is nearly a regular tetrahedron with edge lengths of 31.06 and 31.07 Å…

Bridging the generation gap: Building up molecules of considerable molecular weight in a step-by-step manner from small units generally consumes energy and produces a lot of waste. This is not the case here since only three steps are necessary to built a dendrimer of generation 3 (MW around 265 000), bearing 750 phosp…

Three effects define deformation‐twinning based metal strengthening: reduction of the free slip distance (Hall‐Petch effect), transformation of glissile to sessile dislocations (Basinski mechanism), and, additionally, textural softening due to reorientation of the material to a favourable orientation for slip. The rel…

The dinitrides CN2, SiN2, and GeN2 in assumed pyrite-type structures are studied by means of density functional theory using both ultrasoft pseudopotentials and the augmented spherical wave (ASW) method. The former two materials constitute the large-x limit of the broader class of CNx and SiNx compounds, which are wel…
