TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a flow-through chamber method to determine the exchange rates of Methacrolein (MACR) and methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) in the presence of plant stomata.
Abstract: Methacrolein (MACR) and methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) are key intermediate compounds in isoprene-initiated reactions, and they cause the formation of secondary organic aerosols and photochemical ozone. The importance of higher plants as a sink of these compounds and as a source of volatiles converted from these compounds was addressed in the present study. We exposed four non-isoprene-emitting plant species to MACR and MVK at concentrations of several to several hundred ppb, measured their uptake rates, and analyzed the volatiles converted from MACR and MVK by these plants. We used a flow-through chamber method to determine the exchange rates. Both MACR and MVK were absorbed by all plants via stomata. Two metabolites, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and 2-butanol, were detected when MVK was fumigated. The conversion ratio was 26–39% for MEK and 33–44% for all volatiles. Combined with the results of two previous relevant reports, our results suggest that MEK conversion from MVK normally occurs in a wide range of plant species, but the conversion ratio may depend on plant type, i.e., if plant species are isoprene-emitting or non-emitting, as well as on the fumigation concentrations. This finding also emphasizes the importance of bilateral exchange measurements of these compounds at lower concentrations close to ambient levels.

TL;DR: Aldol condensation between methanol and acetone, catalyzed by undoped and rare earths (Ce and Y) doped tin oxide nanoparticles is presented in this article.
Abstract: Aldol condensation between methanol and acetone, catalyzed by undoped and rare earths (Ce and Y) doped tin oxide nanoparticles is presented. Several methanol/acetone molar ratio conditions were evaluated aiming to produce methyl vinyl ketone as the main product. The undoped and doped ultrafine nanoparticles of tin oxide were prepared using the polymeric precursor method. The characterization was carried out by means of N2 adsorption (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD), CO2 chemisorption, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The catalytic behavior observed for SnO2 samples suggests that the methanol/acetone molar ratio and Ce and Y doping play an important role in the catalytic activity and in the product selectivity. The results from XRD and XPS pointed to the de-mixing process for the doped samples, due to the heat-treatment. This segregation layer contributes to the observed change in the catalytic behavior.

TL;DR: The Birch reduction of 2,7-dimethoxy-3-isopropylnaphthalene (IIb) was made from IIa in five steps, followed by acid hydrolysis yielded the tetralone IIIa and the latter was carboxymethylated to IIIb by reaction with dimethyl carbonate and sodium hydride as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The Birch reduction of 2,7-dimethoxy-3-isopropylnaphthalene (IIb), which itself was made from IIa in five steps, followed by acid hydrolysis yielded the tetralone IIIa and the latter was carboxymethylated to IIIb by reaction with dimethyl carbonate and sodium hydride. Michael condensation of IIIb with methyl vinyl ketone yielded the unsaturated ketone IV. The tricyclic ketone IV on methylation followed by thioketalisation gave the thioketal IXa and the latter on Raney nickel desulfurisation yielded Ic.
