Summary:
A framework for improving knee rehabilitation and reducing ACL injury incidence and reinjury rates post anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been described. The framework encourages a global approach, whereby ‘proximal’ is not confined to...
Description of Study
Szostak and coworkers reported highly chemoselective reduction of amides ( primary, secondary, Tertiary) to alcohols using SmI2 /Amine /H2O under mild conditions. They reduced amide to alcohol by stirring amide (0.1mmol) with...
Summary:

Our interest was the formation of the ring...
Synthesized compounds 1, 2 and 8. These reactions were successfully reproduced at large scales (up to 10 times).
Maruoka et al. developed a new synthetic route to access 3,3’-disubstituted BINAM compounds which are nitrogen derivatives of popular axial chiral ligands BINOL and BINAP. Their multi step approach involves in partial hydrogenation of BINAM to H8-BINAM,...
This article describes an efficient method for solution-phase parallel synthesis of 2-quinoxalinol salen Schiff-base ligands. The novelty of this article is the synthesis of a new category of ligands using Schiff-base condensation of an aldehyde with a...
Summary:
This study reports the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of acetic acid. The authors have chosen a packed bed microreactor for the purpose. The reason for put forward by the authors for choosing micro reactor is its efficiency in operation under reduced...
This article reports the catalytic isomerization of the branched isomer 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile (2M3BN) to the linear isomer 3-pentenenitrile (3PN) by DPEphos nickel species.
The species involved in the isomerization reaction were investigated by...
Review:
This article describes the structure optimization and initial mechanistic understanding of a simple thiourea catalyst for the enantioselective alkylation of indoles with nitroalkenes. The indole ring has proven to be a “privileged” structure in...
Summary:
This paper reports a methodology for synthesis of substituted benzimidazole, benzothiazole, and benzoxazole in aqueous media. The method is novel in its approach of utilizing water as the medium, making it fit for a green chemistry protocol. The...
Summary:
Synthesis of various silacycles has been reported.
The Reaction of Interest:
Synthesis of t-BuSiHCl2 (18.5%, 50 mmol) via reaction of HSiCl3 (2 equiv) with t-BuLi.
Practical Observations:
Solid state phosphors in the form of nanosized particles attract a lot of attention. This interest is of both fundamental and practical character. Ultrafine and homogeneous fluorescence particles can be used as biological labels and in the various lightning...
Ruthenium oxide is one of the most active electrocatalytic material for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and chlorine evolution reaction (CER). The attempts of improve its performance or to decrease the cost of the industrial electrodes resulted in many...
Review :-
1) Synthesized all compounds from Table 1 (1-8) and Table 2 (1-13). I was able to achieve higher yields than the ones reported in this paper by doubling the catalyst concentration.
2) I used excess i.e 3 mol % Palladium acetate than the...
Covalent attachment of 1,4-dioxane to beta born of ferracarborane sandwich complexes which can be easily outfitted with many organic functional groups. Procedure worked as reported, with moderate yields of 60-70%. Higher yields were achieved at smaller scales...
This paper describes synthesis, characterization, and catalase activity of a water-soluble diMn(III) complex of a sulphonato-substituted Schiff-base ligand. DiMn(III) complex is highly efficient to disproportionate hydrogen peroxide in basic aqueous solutions...
In this manuscipt, a high current low voltage carbon nanotube (CN) enabled vertical organic field-effect transistor (VOFET) is reported that have the future potential to drive the pixels in active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMLED).
