Transmetallation of the 5-benzyloxy-4-methylpent-2-en-1-yl(tributyl)- and -(triphenyl)stannanes 1 and 8 using tin(iv) chloride generates an allyltin trichloride that reacts with aldehydes to give (Z)-1,5-anti-6-benzyloxy-5-methylhex-3-en-1-ols 2. The allyltin trichloride believed to be the key intermediate in these reactions has been trapped by

The purpose of this study was to develop intraperitoneal hyperthermic therapy based on magnetic fluid hyperthermia, nanoparticle-wrapped cisplatin chemotherapy, and magnetic particles of albumin. In addition, to combine the multiple-killing effects of hyperthermal targeting therapy, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, the albumin-nanoparticle

The anionic speciation of chlorostannate(II) ionic liquids, prepared by mixing 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride and tin(II) chloride in various molar ratios, χ(SnCl2), was investigated in both solid and liquid states. The room temperature ionic liquids were investigated by (119)Sn NMR spectroscopy, X-ray

The Zn-Sn nanoparticles/multiwall carbon nanotubes (Zn-SnNPs/MWNTs) nanocomposite film was prepared by electrodeposition of ZnCl(2) and SnCl(2) on MWNTs simultaneously in Ethaline ionic liquids. Then, based on immobilizing hemoglobin (Hb) within a novel Zn-SnNPs/MWNTs nanocomposite film (Hb/Zn-SnNPs/MWNTs), a novel hydrogen peroxide
