A Rhodotorula strain (Rhodotorula glutinis ySL 30) in combination with a siderophore was evaluated for postharvest control of a Botrytis cinerea strain resistant to iprodione on apple. The biocontrol yeast was less effective for the control of iprodione-resistant B. cinerea than the iprodione-se...

In the paper, 2,4,5-tri(2-furyl)-1H-imidazole (TFI) and 2-phenyl-4,5-di(2-furyl)-1H-imidazole (PDFI), were chosen to investigate chemiluminescence (CL) properties of 2-substituted-4,5-di(2-furyl)-1H-imidazoles. The directly oxidized CL of analytes by H2O2 was in detail studied. The H2O2 could di...

Enzyme catalyzed transesterification of rac-2-chloro-1-(2-furyl)ethanol rac-1 using vinyl acetate afforded the enantiomers of 2-chloro-1-(2-furyl)ethanol 1 and 2-chloro-1-(2-furyl)ethyl acetate 2 in high enantiomeric excess. Several lipases were used for the kinetic resolution of racemic 2-chlor...

We report the hydrodeoxygenation of 2-furyl methyl ketone over iron phosphide catalyst to reform the C6 structure into C7 compounds with higher octane ratings. High conversion and yield were achievable from the reaction at 400 °C when 5 wt% Fe2P/γ-Al2O3 catalyst calcined at 600 °C was used. H...

We have prepared 4-(2′-furyl)-1-methylimidazole (1) and characterized it by infrared, Raman, multidimensional nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopies. Employing density functional theory (DFT)/B3LYP with Pople’s basis set, the molecular structures of the compound have been theoretic...

The reaction of bis(2-furyl) ditelluride Fu2Te2 (1) with iodine in diethyl ether under ambient conditions expectedly yields FuTeI (2). The in situ reaction of 2 with triphenylphosphine affords Ph3PTe(Fu)I (3), which was characterized in the solid state by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Th...

New coordination complexes of silver(I) containing triphenylphosphine and 4′-hydroxy-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (tpyOH) or 4′-(2-furyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (ftpy) have been synthesized to afford the new compounds [Ag(tpyOH)(PPh3)](NO3) (1) and [Ag(ftpy)(PPh3)](NO3) (2). In addition, the r...

Mechanism of thermal decomposition of 2-furyl radical is studied using UB3LYP, UBHandHLYP and UMP2/6-311++G(d, p) approaches. Thermodynamic properties of considered intermediates and products of 2-furyl radical decomposition are calculated. Two the most kinetically favorable channels of 2-furyl ...

Conversion of chrysanthemates to their cyclopropane, episulfide, and epoxide derivatives by addition of methylene, sulfur, or oxygen, respectively, to the 2-methyl-1-propenyl double bond yields products generally of reduced toxicity but enhanced neurophysiological activity and photostability. Th...

π,π-Excitation of bis(2-methyl-1-propenyl)ether leads to products derived from a vinyl-vinyloxy radical pair; photochemical decarbonylation (n,π) of the title ketone provides an entry into the diradical manifold of the oxydi-π-methane rearrangement.

T1 gives a clue to assign cis- and trans-methyl carbons in 2-methyl-1-propenyl moiety.

The coordination and oxidative addition of (E)-3-phenyl-2-propenyl methyl carbonate (1) and (S/R)-1-phenyl-2-propenyl methyl carbonates (2) on Mo(CO)3L have been investigated computationally. In addition to the anticipated η2 coordination mode of these allylic carbonates prior to their oxidativ...

ObjectiveUsing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) tests to assess manual cleaning of gastroscopes and to determine the associated workload in a busy endoscopy unit.

This study investigated the effects of caffeine in the behavioral and inflammatory alterations caused by copper in zebrafish larvae, attempting to correlate these changes with the modulation of adenosine receptors. To perform a survival curve, 7 dpf larvae were exposed to 10 μM CuSO4, combined ...

Quaternary systems of copper(II) complexes with adenosine 5′-triphosphate, O-phospho l-serine and with equimolar or excessive amount of spermine have been investigated. The studies have been performed in aqueous solution. Types of complexes and the overall stability constants have been determin...

Early detection of harmful cyanobacterial blooms allows identification of potential risk and appropriate selection of treatment techniques to prevent exposure in recreational water bodies and drinking water supplies. Here, luminescence-based adenosine triphosphate (ATP) analysis was applied to m...

In the present study, a facile fluorescence aptasensor based on two-dimensional sheet metal-organic frameworks of N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)dithiooxamidato copper(II) (H2dtoaCu) was developed for the sensitive detection of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The sensing mechanism was based on the noncova...
