Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Couplings Involving Carbon-Oxygen Bonds
Brad M. Rosen,Kyle W. Quasdorf,Daniella A. Wilson,Na Zhang,Ana-Maria Resmerita,Neil K. Garg,Virgil Percec +6 more
TL;DR: Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Couplings Involving Carbon-Oxygen Bonds Brad M. Rosen, Kyle W. Quasdorf, Daniella A. Wilson, Na Zhang, Ana-Maria Resmerita, Neil K. Garg, and Virgil Percec report on cross-coupling strategies for high-performance liquid chromatography of carbon dioxide and nitrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dendron-Mediated Self-Assembly, Disassembly, and Self-Organization of Complex Systems
Brad M. Rosen,Christopher J. Wilson,Daniela A. Wilson,Mihai Peterca,Mohammad R. Imam,Virgil Percec +5 more
TL;DR: The structural origin of chirality in different supramolecular structures through combinations of structural analysis methods has been investigated in this article, where the most ideal building blocks would need to display shape persistence in solution and in the solid state, since only this feature provides access to the use of complementary methods of structural analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrafast synthesis of ultrahigh molar mass polymers by metal-catalyzed living radical polymerization of acrylates, methacrylates, and vinyl chloride mediated by SET at 25 degrees C.
Virgil Percec,Tamaz Guliashvili,Janine S. Ladislaw,Anna Finne Wistrand,Anna Stjerndahl,Monika J. Sienkowska,Michael J. Monteiro,Sangrama Sahoo +7 more
TL;DR: It is reported that polarsolvents such as H(2)O, alcohols, dipolar aprotic solvents, ethylene and propylene carbonate, and ionic liquids instantaneously disproportionate Cu(I)X into Cu(0) and Cu(II)X(2), facilitating an ultrafast LRP in which the free radicals are generated by the nascent and extremely reactive Cu( 0) atomic species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-organization of supramolecular helical dendrimers into complex electronic materials
Virgil Percec,Martin Glodde,Tushar K. Bera,Yoshiko Miura,Irina Shiyanovskaya,Kenneth D. Singer,Venkatachalapathy S. K. Balagurusamy,Paul A. Heiney,Ingo Schnell,Almut Rapp,Hans Wolfgang Spiess,Steven D. Hudson,H. Duan +12 more
TL;DR: This work finds that attaching conducting organic donor or acceptor groups to the apex of the dendrons leads to supramolecular nanometre-scale columns that contain in their cores π-stacks of donors, acceptors or donor–acceptor complexes exhibiting high charge carrier mobilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-Electron Transfer and Single-Electron Transfer Degenerative Chain Transfer Living Radical Polymerization
Brad M. Rosen,Virgil Percec +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the latest progress in two related polymerization methodologies that rely on singleelectron transfer (SET), single-electron-transfer degenerative chain transfer living radical polymerization (SET-DTLRP), and single-Electron Transfer Living Radical Poly(SET-LRP) for the synthesis of tailored polymers.
