p-Nitrophenyl carbonate promoted ring-opening reactions of DBU and DBN affording lactam carbamates
The amidine bases DBU (1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene) and DBN (1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene) display nucleophilic behaviour towards highly electrophilic p-nitrophenyl carbonate derivatives with ring opening of the bicyclic ring to form ...

NMR study of ε-caprolactam in various solvents. Graphical determination of monomer shift, dimer shift and dimerization constant from the dilution shift data [PDF]
A graphical method for the simultaneous determination of the monomer shift, dimer shift and dimerization constant of a self-association system from the dilution NMR shift data is proposed. This method avoids the conventional extrapolation to infinite dilution to obtain the monomer shift. Three self-association systems: Iµ-caprolactam in [2H1]chloroform,

The curious effects of integrating bimetallic active centres within nanoporous architectures for acid-catalysed transformations [PDF]
The resourceful combination of distinct Mg, Zn and Si active-sites within a single aluminophosphate framework, via simultaneous isomorphous substitution, has afforded unique bimetallic nanoporous heterogeneous catalysts. Unique site-specific interactions

Isolation and Quantification of Polyamide Cyclic Oligomers in Kitchen Utensils and Their Migration into Various Food Simulants. [PDF]
Small amounts of cyclic monomers and oligomers are present in polyamide (PA)-based kitchen utensils. In this study, we isolated eight PA-based cyclic monomers and oligomers from kitchen utensils made from PA6 (a polymer of ε-caprolactam) and PA66 (a ...

Development of a Transcription Factor-Based Lactam Biosensor [PDF]
Lactams are an important class of commodity chemicals used in the manufacture of nylons, with millions of tons produced every year. Biological production of lactams could be greatly improved by high-throughput sensors for lactam biosynthesis. To identify
