General description

Benzenesulfonic acid, also known as besylic acid, is a strong organic acid commonly used as an acid catalyst in various organic reactions, such as esterification, alkylation, and condensation reactions. It is also used as a sulfonating agent to introduce sulfonic acid (SO3H) groups into organic compounds, which can be useful in the synthesis of several dye intermediates.

A novel, convenient, and efficient method has been developed for selective synthesis of spirocycle, polycycle, and di- and tetrahydronaphthalene systems from aryl-substituted propargylic alcohols by FeCl3- or TsOH-catalyzed multiple activations of unsaturated C-C bonds and C-H bonds.

We present lamellar self-assembly of cationic poly(L-histidine) (PLH) stoichiometrically complexed with an anionic surfactant, dodecyl benzenesulfonic acid (DBSA), which allows a stabilized conformation reminiscent of polyproline type II (PPII) left-handed helices. Such a conformation has no intrapeptide hydrogen bonds, and
