A new series of water compatible primary-tertiary diamine catalysts derived from natural primary amino acids bearing a hydrophobic side chain have been synthesized. These new primary-tertiary diamine-Brønsted acid conjugates bifunctional organocatalysts efficiently catalyzes the asymmetric direct syn selective cross-aldol reaction
A method has been modified and optimized for the measurements of hydroxyacetone as well as formaldehyde and glycolaldehyde, based on aqueous scrubbing using a coil sampler followed by DNPH derivatization and HPLC analysis. Derivatization equilibrium and kinetics were studied to
