Abstract:
... Styrene emissions can be treated by physicochemical, biological, or physicochemical/biological means. Due to its low solubility in water an alternative to eliminate styrene emissions from air is the use of two-phase partitioning bioreactors (TPPBs) which comprised a hydrophobic non-aqueous phase (NAP) which can improve mass transfer of styrene. This study was devoted to prepare and evaluate the ma ...

Abstract:
... Herein, we demonstrate a high-accuracy H₂O₂ selective organic-inorganic 3D-heterointerface based on catalytically in-situ reduced Prussian-blue nanoparticles (PBNPs), Poly (3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene):poly (styrene sulfonic acid) (PEDOT:PSS) and water-soluble Silkworm protein (SWp). PBNPs were immobilized on an indium tin oxide-coated glass (ITO) electrode through the electrochemical polymerizati ...
... Indoor particle release from toner printing equipment (TPE) is a major health concern and has received wide attention. In this study, nine printing centers were randomly selected and three working phases were simulated, namely, non-working, normal printing/copying, and heavy printing/copying. The dynamics of the ozone (O₃), volatile organic compound (VOC), and particle emissions from TPE were dete ...
... We report the design and synthesis of a redox-active thianthrenium-containing sulfoximination reagent. Photo-catalyzed acetoxysulfoximination of styrene with various functional groups is described. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that the sulfoximination reagent (2aa) received a single electron transfer (SET) from the photo-excited Ir(ppy)₃ catalyst to produce a sulfoximidoyl radical as ...
... Cationic copolymerization of o-phthalaldehyde with various styrene derivatives and vinyl ethers was investigated, particularly focusing on the relationship between the structure and reactivity of vinyl monomers and the copolymerization behavior. In the case of styrene derivatives, the existence of α- or β-substituents (or cyclic structures) on the vinyl group was indispensable for efficient crosso ...
... We have presented an efficient method to access gem-difluoro-2-trifluromethyl styrene derivatives via palladium catalysis. This method features mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope and good product yields. Moreover, gram–scale reactions demonstrated the robustness and potential of this method. Control experiments revealed that the –CF₃ group was essential to the success of this transfor ...

Abstract:
... A mild and efficient DBN-mediated addition reaction of α-(trifluoromethyl)styrenes with diazoles, triazoles, tetrazoles, and primary, secondary, and secondary cyclic amines was developed. This practical protocol provided a robust method for the synthesis of various β-trifluoromethyl nitrogen-containing heterocycles and β-trifluoromethyl amines. ...
... We report herein the synthesis of functionalized styrenes via palladium-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction between aryl ketone derivatives and potassium vinyltrifluoroborate. The employment of pyridine-oxazoline ligand was the key to the cleavage of unstrained CC bond. A variety of functional groups and biologically important moleculars were well tolerated. The orthogonal Suzuki–Miya ...

Abstract:
... A novel and effective Brønsted acid-catalyzed chemoselective synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes and 3-alkyl indoles is reported. The selectivity of two significant indole derivatives is attained by allowing the same substrates to go through divergent reaction routes catalyzed by different catalysts. Furthermore, this mild approach is applicable to a wide range of substrates and has high efficacy in ...

Abstract:
... For effectively actualizing the gram-scale preparation of (R)-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol (PED) via the enantioconvergent hydrolysis of racemic (rac-) styrene oxide (SO) at elevated concentration using whole-cell of E. coli/sleh2, the reaction media were constructed by adding non-ionic surfactants, organic solvents, and deep eutectic solvents into phosphate buffer, respectively. After screening, using c ...

Abstract:
... Rh-catalyzed anti-Markovnikov hydrosilylation of terminal alkenes and tertiary silanes using readily-available PPh₃ as the ligand was reported. This method facilitated the effective synthesis of alkylsilanes with a wide substrate scope and high yields. Remarkably, both an unprecedented catalytic efficiency (TON up to 10,000) and excellent selectivity for the reaction of styrene and diethoxymethyls ...

Abstract:
... Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) was employed to study polymer interdiffusion in drying latex dispersions designed for application as pressure-sensitive adhesives. The materials differed in the degree of chain branching, where branching was controlled by the addition of styrene as a retarder. The FRET efficiency, ΦET, quantifies the degree of interdiffusion between particles. A plot of lo ...

Abstract:
... Cross metathesis between styrenes and unbranched terminal alkynes is reported. Styrene cross metathesis with terminal alkynes that lack branching at the propargylic position are unknown. In general, unbranched terminal alkynes have been problematic in cross metathesis due to competing alkyne oligomerization. A catalyst screen was performed for a variety of Grubbs catalysts to optimize the yield of ...

Abstract:
... As a typically semicrystalline polymer, the physical properties of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) are directly related to its crystallization. In this work, styrene (St) is grafted onto iPP chains by reactive processing to modify its crystallization behavior. The St grafting segments disrupt the stereoregularity of the iPP chain, leading to the appearance of a γ-crystal. More interestingly, the pre ...

To separate Li ⁺ ions from Mg²⁺ ions rich salt-lake brine using nanofiltration (NF), high-performance NF membranes capable of achieving a high Mg²⁺/Li⁺ separation factor in a wide range of solution conditions are critical. In this study, we investigated the impacts of three key solution parameters, including pH, salinity, and Mg²⁺/Li⁺ mass ratio, on the performance of Mg²⁺/Li⁺ separation by poly(s ...

Treatment of 1 with a base-stabilized silylene led to the corresponding phosphasilene, which was isolated in 72% yield as a red crystalline solid. Phosphinidene transfer was also observed when 1 (2 equiv) was combined ...

In contrast to the typical Cₛₚ₂–H activation, a PN³P-Nickel complex chemoselectively cleaved the benzylic Cₛₚ₃–H bond of toluene in the presence of KHMDS, presumably via an in situ generated potassium benzyl intermediate. Under similar conditions, CO underwent deoxygenation to afford the corresponding nickel cyano complex, and ethylbenzene was dehydrogenated to give styrene and a nickel hydride co ...
