Abstract:
Under microwave irradiation, boron trifluoride has been found to mediate a novel condensation reaction of alkyl aryl ketone with ethyl ortho-formate to give a series of new condensa-tion products (5,6,7,8). Their structures were determined by IR, 1H-/13C-NMR, MS spectra, and the crystal structure of 8 was further defined by X-ray diffraction.

Abstract:
A simple and direct method for preparation of N-substituted spirocyclic diester of □-amino phosphonic acid (4) in high yield is introduced. The reaction consists of the three-component reaction of phenylurea (1), an aromatic aldehyde (2), and 3,9-dichloro-2,4,8,10-tetraoxa-3,9-diphosphaspiro[5,5] undecane (3) in anhydrous benzene.

Abstract:
Mono 3-deoxy-(N'-benzoyl-ethylenediamino)-P-CD, mono 3-deoxy-(N'-benzimidoy 1-ethylamino)-β-CD, and mono S-deoxy-(N'-salicylidene-ethylenediamino)-β-CD, each of which has a flexible chain that bonds the aryl moiety on the secondary side of β-CD, were prepared in this research. The reaction processes might involve the formation of mono(2,3-manno-epoxide)-p-CD as an intermediate in our reaction conditions.

Abstract:
Two types of N-phenyl and N,N'-diphenyl azathiacrowii ether analogs, which contain two sulfur atoms, one or two oxygen atoms, and one or two nitrogen atoms, were synthesized by the reaction of an appropriate halide with a corresponding a,ω-dithiol. They were further deter-mined by IR, 1HNMR, and MS.

Abstract:
The synthesis of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)-multipeptide conjugate is reported in the present paper. This new type of peptide-polymer surrogate possesses some merits, such as ease of synthesis, high density of peptide, and the possibility of increased bioavailability, and seems to have promising uses in drug development.

Abstract:
Two rearranged products, dienone 4 and 10-oxo product 5 were obtained upon at-tempted 10p-OSO2CF3 formation from 3. The formation of compound 5 can be explained by an-chimeric assistance of 7α-OH. Reduction of 4 yielding a 4-deacetyl product (12) also involves neighboring group participation.

Abstract:
The effects of adding Al(i-C4H9)3 (TEA) to rac-Me2Si(Ind)2ZrCl2/MAO catalyzed propylene-1-octene copolymerization were studied. At TBA/MAO(Al/Al mole ratio) of about 0.6, the polymerization activity was found to be much higher than the system without TBA. In-creases of polymer molecular weight and 1-octene content from addition of TBA were also ob-served.

Abstract:
It is reported that two kinds of specific mass spectrometric fragmentations are generated from dissociations of the intermediates of both the ion-neutral complex and the proton-bound complex. Collision-induced dissociation, isotopic labelling, and semi-empirical AMI calculations were used to investigate the formation mechanism of the ion of m/z 139 from ionized tetrahydroimi-dazole-substituted methylene β-diketones and the unimolecular fragmentations pathway of 3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-ol upon electron impact.

Abstract:
The electrochemical properties of a new derivative of C60 were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. It was found that the derivative was reduced at a more positive potential than C60, reflecting its significance to accept electron easily. Its NIR characteristic absorption bands of monoanion and dianion were also obtained.

Abstract:
In the present paper, the electrochemical behavior of ergosterol has been investigated by in situ circular dichroism (CD) spectroelectrochemistry with long path-length thin layer cell. E0(1.02V), αnα(0.302) of the electroxidation process of ergosterol were obtained from the CD spec-troelectrochemical data. The mechanism of the electroxidation process of ergosterol is suggested.

In this paper, direct photooxidation of benzothiazolone cyanine dye in acetonitrile was studied. The photoproducts had been identified by 1HNMR and fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry. The results showed that the N-ethylbeiizothiazolone (Ⅰ), the ionic acid (Ⅱ), and ionic aldehyde (Ⅲ) are the principal photoproducts.
