This work investigated the ultrasonic assisted oxidative desulfurization of bunker-C oil with TBHP/MoO3 system. The operational parameters for the desulfurization procedure such as ultrasonic irradiation time, ultrasonic wave amplitude, catalyst initial concentration and oxidation agent initial concentration were studied. The

Oligomeric and polymeric procyanidins have been reported to possess different antioxidant capacities. However, the intracellular antioxidant mechanisms of oligomeric and polymeric procyanidins are still poorly understood. In this study, we evaluated the cytoprotective effects of the oligomeric procyanidin fraction (OPF)

A new synthetic approach toward direct C-N bond formation through sp(3) C-H activation has been developed under metal-free conditions. Both primary and secondary benzylic C-H substrates could react smoothly with various amines to give only mono-amination products with good to

This protocol describes a new approach for the preparation of stereodefined trisubstituted chiral enolate species, avoiding conventional asymmetric enolization of carbonyl compounds. This protocol was developed as a single-flask synthetic sequence and therefore does not require isolation or purification of
Michael K Coggins et al.

Manganese-peroxos are proposed as key intermediates in a number of important biochemical and synthetic transformations. Our understanding of the structural, spectroscopic, and reactivity properties of these metastable species is limited, however, and correlations between these properties have yet to be
