The case against tributyltin [PDF]
The use of paints containing tributyltin (TBT) to keep boat hulls clean is threatening marine life in some coastal regions, especially where boating for pleasure is popular. Research so far has shown that very low concentrations of the chemical have lethal or mutagenic effects on some marine invertebrates and stop the growth of phytoplankton ...

C4 Functionalization of the Isoquinoline Core via Oxidative Radical Substitution
The isoquinoline ring can be easily functionalized at C‐4 through a radical‐oxidative substitution process. The resulting products can be readily cyclized under basic conditions, facilitating the construction of pyranones fused to the isoquinoline scaffold. ABSTRACTIn this work, we report a straightforward synthetic procedure that enables the selective

Tributyltin: A Bottom–Up Regulator of the Crangon crangon Population?
The restrictions and the concerted action of the global ban on the use and presence of tributyltin (TBT) in marine applications to protect ecosystems in the marine environment in 2008 was mainly based on the economic impact on shellfish industries and ...

Scratch‐Healing of Conjugated Polymers: Flexibly Linked PTB7‐Th Copolymers and Their Blends
Flexibly‐linked conjugated polymers based on the donor polymer PTB7‐Th are capable of scratch healing. A higher linker content leads to higher “mobility,” which is required for the healing process. However, the optical properties are impaired. Blends of donor polymers with high and low linker content can solve this dilemma as they provide sufficient ...

The adsorption of tributyltin (TBT), onto three mesoporous silica adsorbents functionalized with calix[4]arene, p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene and p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene (MCM-TDI-C4, MCM-TDI-PC4 and MCM-TDI-C4S, respectively) has been compared.

Pharmacological property of tributyltin in vivo and in vitro [PDF]
Tributyltin (TBT), an assumed endocrine-disrupting chemical, is widely known to show harmful effects in invertebrates including the dioecious snails. As for mammals, there are several reports concerning TBT toxicology, but few indications about general pharmacology of TBT. In the present study, we comprehensively examined the pharmacological effects of

Organotin compounds in marine water and sediments from the port of Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico
During September and October 1995, samples of surface sediments and water were collected to develop an analytical set-up to determine the concentrations of the organic compounds known as tributyltins (TBTs), including tributyl-, dibutyl- and ...

Mapping molluscan endocrinology: a systematic and critical appraisal
ABSTRACT Historically, a vertebrate‐centric paradigm has framed our interpretation of molluscan endocrinology, with considerable research focusing on vertebrate‐type steroid hormones (e.g. oestrogens, testosterone). However, contradictory evidence on the occurrence of vertebrate‐type steroid hormones in molluscan tissues, and a lack of the specific ...
