A Model for Granular Texture with Steric Exclusion

open access: yes, 2002
We propose a new method to characterize the geometrical texture of a granular packing at the particle scale including the steric hindrance effect. This method is based on the assumption of a maximum disorder (entropy) compatible both with strain-induced ...

Highly efficient synthesis of the tricyclic core of Taxol by cascade metathesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
An efficient enantioselective synthesis of the ABC tricyclic core of the anticancer drug Taxol is reported. The key step of this synthesis is a cascade metathesis reaction, which leads in one operation to the required tricycle if appropriate fine-tuning ...

Relaxation dynamics in a transient network fluid with competing gel and glass phases

open access: yes, 2015
We use computer simulations to study the relaxation dynamics of a model for oil-in-water microemulsion droplets linked with telechelic polymers. This system exhibits both gel and glass phases and we show that the competition between these two arrest ...

Catalytic enantioselective construction of axial chirality in 1,3-disubstituted allenes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Highly enantioselective synthesis of allenes has been relying, so far, on the steric hindrance of substrates. Here the authors achieve excellent stereocontrol in the synthesis of chiral allenes with a palladium-DTBM-SEGPHOS catalytic system in a non ...

Two-Dimensional Controlled Syntheses of Polypeptide Molecular Brushes via N-Carboxyanhydride Ring-Opening Polymerization and Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Well-defined molecular brushes bearing polypeptides as side chains were prepared by a "grafting through" synthetic strategy with two-dimensional control over the brush molecular architectures.

Interfacial assignment of branched-alkyl benzene sulfonates: A molecular simulation

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2015
A molecular dynamics simulation was conducted to analyze orientations of sodium branched-alkyl benzene sulfonates molecules at nonane/water interface, which is helpful to design optimal surfactant structures to achieve ultralow interfacial tension (IFT).
