Analytical Formulas of Molecular Ion Abundances and N2H+ Ring in Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]
We investigate the chemistry of ion molecules in protoplanetary disks, motivated by the detection of N$_2$H$^+$ ring around TW Hya. While the ring inner radius coincides with the CO snow line, it is not apparent why N$_2$H$^+$ is abundant outside the CO ...

An unexpected ring formation in morphine chemistry
Reaction of (7R)-N-benzyl-N-nor-7-bromoneopinone dimethyl acetal (2) with primary or secondary amines (RNH2, R1R2NH) resulted in 9-amino-substituted hasubanan derivatives; in particular, modification of the 9-(2-hydroxyethyl)amino derivative in subsequent steps gave products 8 with a 9-(oxazolidin-2'-one-3'-yl) substituent.

Straightforward synthesis of functionalized cyclic polymers in high yield via RAFT and thiolactone-disulfide chemistry [PDF]
An efficient synthetic pathway toward cyclic polymers based on the combination of thiolactone and disulfide chemistry has been developed. First, heterotelechelic linear polystyrene (PS) containing an alpha-thiolactone (TLa) and an omega-dithiobenzoate ...

Use of metal catalysts bearing Schiff base macrocycles for the ring opening polymerization (ROP) of cyclic esters [PDF]
© 2017 by the authors. Schiff base macrocycles are emerging as useful scaffolds for binding two or more catalytic metals in close proximity. Such coordination chemistry allows for the evaluation of potentially beneficial catalytic cooperative effects. In

An air-stable bisboron complex: a practical bidentate Lewis acid catalyst
We report an air-stable bisboron complex as an efficient catalyst for the inverse electron-demand Diels–Alder (IEDDA) reaction of 1,2-diazine as well as 1,2,4,5-tetrazine.

Activated Cyclopropanes: A Remarkable Breadth of Recent Chemistry [PDF]
The reactions of cyclopropanes activated by electron-withdrawing groups and electron-donating groups – donor–acceptor (DA) cyclopropanes – and with alkenyl or alkylidene substituents has been an area of recent intense research activity.

NeoPHOX – a structurally tunable ligand system for asymmetric catalysis
A synthesis of new NeoPHOX ligands derived from serine or threonine has been developed. The central intermediate is a NeoPHOX derivative bearing a methoxycarbonyl group at the stereogenic center next to the oxazoline N atom.

Organic molecules in the protoplanetary disk of DG Tau revealed by ALMA [PDF]
Planets form in protoplanetary disks and inherit their chemical compositions. It is thus crucial to map the distribution and investigate the formation of simple organics, such as formaldehyde and methanol, in protoplanetary disks.
