Self-propelled catalytic bubble-ejecting nanotubes (nanojets) are expected to perform a variety of autonomous tasks. Herein, we will show that with the introduction of a Ni segment into the Au/Ni/Pt nanotube design followed by consequent magnetization a permanent change in the magnetic domain orientation of the Ni seg…

Well-defined norbornene-functional poly(carbonate)s were prepared by ring-opening polymerization and utilized as multireactive polymeric scaffolds in a range of postpolymerization modifications. The norbornene-functional handles were shown to undergo facile reaction with azides via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, tetrazi…

Conferring biodegradability to nanoparticles is vitally important when nanomedicine applications are being targeted, as this prevents potential problems with bioaccumulation of byproducts after delivery. In this work, dextran has been modified (and rendered hydrophobic) by partial acetalation. A solid state NMR method…

Two reactions of phenols with arynes have been developed. If LiTMP base is employed, arynes generated from aryl chlorides react with phenols to form helicenes. o-Arylation of phenols can be achieved by employing tBuONa base in the presence of AgOAc. Direct arylation of binol was achieved leading to the shortest pathwa…

The photochemistry of fac-[Re(bpy)(CO)(3)Cl] (1 a; bpy=2,2'-bipyridine) initiated by irradiation using <330 nm light has been investigated. Isomerization proceeded in THF to give the corresponding mer-isomer 1 b. However, in the presence of a small amount of MeCN, the main product was the CO-ligand-substituted complex…

We have developed a double-channel high electron mobility transistor with back barriers for carrier confinement. We have observed that the double-channel devices may suffer from the lack of gate control particularly for the lower channel. However, the problem can be contained by using a suitable back barrier for the l…
