The -ills of Educational Reform
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., 1998-02)
Many instructors have sincerely accepted problem solving and critical thinking as instructional objectives. This kind of language, especially notions of the liberal-arts values of taking college classes, is used in compelling ...
Synthesis of polyamines with pendant cyanoimidazole units and their electrochemical properties
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1998-10)
The 2-(1-methyl-4,5-dicyanoimidazolyl) group was attached to poly(diallylamine) and polyethylenimine, affording polymers containing an electron-withdrawing pendant group. The key to their preparation is high reactivity of ...
A comparison of proteins and peptides as substrates for microsomal and solubilized oligosaccharyltransferase
(Elsevier, 1994-11)
A chemoenzymatic synthesis of homogeneous neoglycoproteins and glycopeptides was explored using oligosaccharyltransferase isolated from yeast. Neither the microsomal form nor the solubilized form of the enzyme catalyzed ...
Benzimidazole ribonucleosides: Observation of an unexpected nitration when performing non-aqueous diazotizations with t-butyl nitrite
(Elsevier, 1992-09)
Mild, non-acidic conditions used in the non-aqueous diazotization of a 2-aminobenzimidazole nucleoside with t-butyl nitrite gave an unexpected 4-nitrobenzimidazol-2-one nucleoside which was not formed when primary alkyl ...
Triple Junction Mobility: A Molecular Dynamics Study
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1999-11)
We present a molecular dynamics simulation study of the migration of individual grain boundary triple junctions. The simulation cell was designed to achieve steady state migration. Observations of the triple junction angle ...
Thermodynamics of alkali alkanoates IX. Heat capacity and thermodynamic functions of lithium 2-methylpropanoate at temperatures from 7 K to 535 K
(Elsevier, 1993-10)
The heat capacity of lithium 2-methylpropanoate was measured by equilibrium adiabatic calorimetry at temperatures, T from 7 K up to 350 K and by d.s.c. from 330 K through melting to 535 K. A small diffuse hump was observed ...
Carboxylmethylation affects the proteolysis of myelin basic protein by Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase
(Elsevier, 1991-10-25)
Bovine myelin basic protein (MBP), charge isoform 1 (C1) was carboxylmethylated by the enzyme -aspartyl/-isoaspartyl protein methyltransferase (EC. 2.1.1.77) and the carboxylmethylated protein was subjected to proteolysis ...
Vibrational studies of the disulfide group in proteins. Part V. Correlation of SS stretch frequencies with the CCSS dihedral angle in known protein disulfide bridges
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1992-04)
Normal mode calculations have been done on 92 disulfide bridges in 25 known protein structures in order to correlate the SS stretch frequency with the CCSS dihedral angle. It is possible to classify the frequencies into ...
Selective multiple methylene insertion reactions mediated by iodomethylzine iodide: Mechanistic considerations and synthetic applications
(Elsevier, 1991-04-15)
The reaction of alkynylcoppers 1 with an excess of iodomethylzinc iodide selectively furnishes the quadruple methylene insertion copper organometallics 2 in fair to good yields. The mechanism of the reaction has been ...
Polyhedral liquid crystal silsesquioxanes
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1999-04)
Synthetic routes towards monodisperse polyhedral liquid-crystalline silsesquioxanes are described. The liquid-crystalline phase behaviour of these structurally uniform materials, with various silsesquioxane core and mesogenic ...
