I and i

Kevin Barraclough
- 08 Dec 2001 - 
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Bright Side of Lignin Depolymerization: Toward New Platform Chemicals

TL;DR: Following the whole value chain from raw lignocellulose through depolymerization to application whenever possible, specific lignin-based compounds emerge that could be in the future considered as potential lignIn-derived platform chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanocellulose: Extraction and application

TL;DR: In this paper, the background of nanocellulose originated from lignocellulosic biomass and the typical extraction methods and general applications are summarized, in which the nanocellulate extraction methods related to ball milling are mainly introduced.

Levulinic Acid Biorefineries: New Challenges for Efficient Utilization of Biomass

TL;DR: This article focuses on the catalytic upgrading of levulinic Acid into various chemicals such as levulinate esters, δ-aminolevulinic acid, succinic acid, diphenolic acid, γ-valerolactone, and γ -valerlactone derivatives such as valeric esters and 5-nonanone.

Enzymatically synthesized polyesters with pendent OH groups as macroinitiators for the preparation of well‐defined graft copolymers by atom transfer radical polymerization

TL;DR: A family of polyesters bearing OH groups on their backbones were successfully converted into macroinitiators for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) by esterification with α-bromoisobutyryl bromide.

A new proton sponge polymer synthesized by RAFT polymerization for intracellular delivery of biotherapeutics

TL;DR: In this article, a spermine-like polymer was synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization as a potential endosomal escaping agent, which was then polymerized via RAFT polymerization at constant monomer or initiator concentration at varying [M]/[R] /[I] ratios.

Synthesis of novel chiral oxazoline ligands and application in the highly enantioselective diethylzinc addition to N-diphenylphosphinoylimines

TL;DR: In this article, two chiral oxazoline ligands were designed and conveniently prepared from readily available l -aspartic acid and evaluated in enantioselective diethylzinc addition to N -diphenylphosphinoyl imines.

Preparation of a sorbitol methacrylate grafted silica as stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction chromatography.

TL;DR: A new highly hydrophilic stationary phase based on graft polymerization of sorbitol methacrylate from the surface of Kromasil silica particles is described and exhibited a selectivity markedly different from that of commercially available columns and of neat silica.

Direct synthesis of sorbitol and glycerol from cellulose over ionic Ru/magnetite nanoparticles in the absence of external hydrogen.

TL;DR: A sweet catalyst: A catalyst formed of Ru/functionalized silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles is highly efficient in the one-pot production of sorbitol and glycerol, starting from cellulose and in the absence of an external hydrogen source.
