TL;DR: The spatial distribution of water-soluble dicarboxylic acids and related compounds in the marine aerosols collected at low to mid-latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere for a better understanding of the photochemical aging of organic aerosols during long-range transport was investigated in this article.

TL;DR: The direct proline-catalyzed asymmetric alpha-aminoxylation of aldehydes and ketones has been developed using nitrosobenzene as an oxygen source, affording alpha-anilinoxy-aldeHydes and -ketones with excellent enantioselectivity.
Abstract: The direct proline-catalyzed asymmetric α-aminoxylation of aldehydes and ketones has been developed using nitrosobenzene as an oxygen source, affording α-anilinoxy-aldehydes and -ketones with excellent enantioselectivity. Reaction conditions have been optimized, and low temperature (−20 °C) was found to be a key for the successful α-aminoxylation of aldehydes, while slow addition of nitrosobenzene is essential for that of ketones. The scope of the reaction is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a non-stoichiometric AgInS2 (AIS) semiconductor particles were synthesized by the thermal decomposition of single-source precursors in solutions of two kinds of primary amines (oleylamine and octylamine), where the Ag content in the resulting nanoparticles was controlled by adjusting the chemical composition of the precursor used, in which the mole ratio of Ag+ to total metal ions was varied from 0.1 to 0.7.
Abstract: Non-stoichiometric AgInS2 (AIS) semiconductor particles were synthesized by the thermal decomposition of single-source precursors in solutions of two kinds of primary amines (oleylamine and octylamine). The Ag content in the resulting nanoparticles was controlled by adjusting the chemical composition of the precursor used, in which the mole ratio of Ag+ to total metal ions was varied from 0.1 to 0.7, resulting in the production of non-stoichiometric AIS particles with varying amounts of Ag vacancies. The average size of AIS particles was slightly decreased from 4.3 to 3.8 nm on changing the solvent from oleylamine to octylamine in the preparation, while the particle size seemed to be constant regardless of the content of Ag. On the other hand, the optical properties of AIS particles were considerably modified depending on the Ag content in the particles. The absorption onset was blue-shifted from 750 to 580 nm with a decrease in the Ag content, due to the enlargement of the energy gap of particles. Intense photoluminescence originating from the donor–acceptor pair recombination was observed for each kind of AIS particle and then the photoluminescence peak wavelength was also blue-shifted from 830 to 650 nm, being similar to the behavior of the absorption onset. The maximum photoluminescence quantum yield was ca. 70% for octylamine-modified AIS nanoparticles having a ratio of Ag+ to total metal ions of 0.37, which probably contained the optimum amount of Ag vacancies acting as the sites of donor–acceptor pair recombination with few surface defect sites for non-radiative recombination.

TL;DR: The efficient asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-oseltamivir, an antiviral reagent, has been accomplished by using two "one-pot" reaction sequences, with excellent overall yield and only one required purification by column chromatography.
Abstract: The efficient asymmetric total synthesis of (―)-oseltamivir, an antiviral reagent, has been accomplished by using two "one-pot" reaction sequences, with excellent overall yield (60 % ) and only one required purification by column chromatography. The first one-pot reaction sequence consists of a diphenylprolinol silyl ether mediated asymmetric Michael reaction, a domino Michael reaction/ Horner―Wadsworth―Emmons reaction combined with retro-aldol/Horner― Wadsworth―Emmons reaction and retro Michael reactions, a thiol Michael reaction, and a base-catalyzed isomerization. Six reactions can be successfully conducted in the second one-pot reaction sequence; these are deprotection of a tert-butyl ester and its conversion into an acyl chloride then an acyl azide, Curtius rearrangement, amide formation, reduction of a nitro group into an amine, and a retro Michael reaction of a thiol moiety. A column-free synthesis of (—)—oseltamivir has also been established.

TL;DR: Based on the knowledge gained through the biomimicry of structural colored materials, colloidal amorphous arrays on the surface of a black particle as the core particle are also prepared as colorful photonic pigments.
Abstract: Inspired by Steller's jay, which displays angle-independent structural colors, angle-independent structurally colored materials are created, which are composed of amorphous arrays of submicrometer-sized fine spherical silica colloidal particles. When the colloidal amorphous arrays are thick, they do not appear colorful but almost white. However, the saturation of the structural color can be increased by (i) appropriately controlling the thickness of the array and (ii) placing the black background substrate. This is similar in the case of the blue feather of Steller's jay. Based on the knowledge gained through the biomimicry of structural colored materials, colloidal amorphous arrays on the surface of a black particle as the core particle are also prepared as colorful photonic pigments. Moreover, a structural color on-off system is successfully built by controlling the background brightness of the colloidal amorphous arrays.
