Nanocrystalline Cellulose from the Solitary Tunicate Phallusia Mammillata, a Valuable Nanocellulose Precursor

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This study explores the potential of locally harvested Phallusia mammillata, a tunicate usually discarded as waste from mussles farming as a viable source for producing various high‐grade cellulose derivatives in the form of nanofibrils (NFC) and nanocrystals (CNC). Abstract Ascidians are ubiquitous filter‐feeding marine invertebrates, the only animals

Chemical Bonds Containing Hydrogen: Choices for Hydrogen Carriers and Catalysts

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Hydrogen carriers utilizing B─H, C─H, N─H, and O─H bonds are evaluated for their potential in hydrogen storage and release. Key candidates such as methanol, ammonia, and formic acid are examined with a focus on critical factors influencing performance, including the nature of chemical bonds, reaction pathways, and catalytic processes.

Trichloroisocyanuric Acid: An Alternate Green Route for the Transformation of Alkenes into Epoxides

Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society, 2002
The preparation of epoxides is efficiently achieved in mild conditions by reaction of alkenes with trichloroisocyanuric acid in aqueous acetone followed by treatment of the resulting chlorohydrin with aqueous KOH in ether / pentane.

Lignin modification by epoxidation

BioResources, 2008
The chemical modification of lignin through hydroxymethylation and epoxidation is a way to develop new application fields and improvement of lignin performances. In this paper the influence of reaction conditions was studied using different samples of unmodified and modified lignins from annual plants (Wheat straw and Sarkanda grass).

Synthesis of an Epoxide for TMM Cycloadditions [PDF]

, 2013
In order to produce a highly functionalized five-membered ring useful for further synthetic processes via Palladium catalysis, a series of precursors need to be synthesized in order to form the epoxide used in cyclic formation.

Total synthesis of aurofusarin: studies on the atropisomeric stability of bis-naphthoquinones [PDF]

, 2018
An efficient annulation involving pyrone addition to a quinone and Dieckmann condensation was developed for rapid assembly of a γ-naphthopyrone monomeric precursor to the bis-naphthoquinone natural product aurofusarin.

Shrimp Virus Regulates ROS Dynamics via the Nrf2 Pathway to Facilitate Viral Replication

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Viruses manipulate host ROS as a strategy to achieve successful infection. WSSV exploits Nrf2 pathway to maintain ROS homeostasis and establishes a positive feedback loop to facilitate WSSV replication. Wsv220 competitively binds to Keap1 to activate Nrf2. Nrf2 up‐regulates LvG6PDH to produce more NADPH and GSH to eliminate excessive ROS.

Computationally Designed Zirconium Organometallic Catalyst for Direct Epoxidation of Alkenes without Allylic H Atoms: Aromatic Linkage Eliminates Formation of Inert Octahedral Complexes [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
We used density functional theory to computationally design a Zr organometallic catalyst for selectively oxidizing substrates using molecular oxygen as oxidant without coreductant. Each selective oxidation cycle involves four general steps: (a) a peroxo or weakly adsorbed O2 group releases an O atom to substrate to form substrate oxide and an oxo group,

Toughening mechanism in elastomer-modified epoxy resins, part 2 [PDF]

The role of matrix ductility on the toughenability and toughening mechanism of elastomer-modified DGEBRA epoxies was investigated. Matrix ductility was varied by using epoxide resins of varying epoxide monomer molecular weights. These epoxide resins were
