    [(Trimethylsilyl)propargyl)]diisobutyltelluronium bromide (1), after being treated with alkyl- or aryllithium reagent, undergoes a lithium-tellurium exchange reaction via an unstable transient tetraorganyltellurium intermediate, and the in situ generated lithium species reacts with carbonyl compounds to give (trimethylsilyl)propargyl alcohols 2 in high yields with high regioselectivity. However, when the telluronium salt 1 was treated with nonnucleophilic bases such as LDA or lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide, the moderately stabilized silylated telluronium ylide formed. The silylated telluronium ylide reacted with carbonyl compounds to afford (trimethylsilyl)alkynyl epoxides 11 in good to excellent yields with high cis stereoselectivity.

    We propose a simple method of characterizing the (Lewis) acid/base behavior of oil-soluble nonionic surfactants at the interface of nonpolar solvents with a polar phase. Using interfacial tensiometry, we probe the effective acidic and basic response of nonpolar surfactant solutions to contact with a variety of polar reference liquids. The measured interfacial tensions are used as experimental coefficients in a set of equations borrowed from the thermodynamic "surface energy component model" of van Oss, Chaudhury, and Good (vOCG), but used here in a more heuristic fashion and with a revised interpretation of the parameters extracted to describe the dispersive, acidic, and basic character of the sample. We test the proposed characterization method using alkane solutions of purified polyisobutylene succinimide (PIBS) surfactants with systematic structural variations, and observe that the inferred parameter values are consistent with, and sensitive to, subtle differences in th...

    Electric charging of colloidal particles in nonpolar solvents plays a crucial role for many industrial applications and products, including rubbers, engine oils, toners, or electronic displays. Although disfavored by the low solvent permittivity, particle charging can be induced by added surfactants, even nonionic ones, but the underlying mechanism is poorly understood, and neither the magnitude nor the sign of charge can generally be predicted from the particle and surfactant properties. The conclusiveness of scientific studies has been limited partly by a traditional focus on few surfactant types with many differences in their chemical structure and often poorly defined composition. Here we investigate the surface charging of poly(methyl methacrylate) particles dispersed in hexane-based solutions of three purified polyisobutylene succinimide polyamine surfactants with "subtle" structural variations. We precisely vary the surfactant chemistry by replacing only a single el...

    The antiparkinsonian and antidyskinetic profile of two N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists, a competitive antagonist, (R)-4-oxo-5-phosphononorvaline (MDL 100,453), and a novel noncompetitive allosteric site antagonist, 4-hydroxy-N-[2-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)ethyl]-4-(4-methylbenzyl)piper idi ne (Co 101244/PD 174494), was assessed in six levodopa-treated 1-methyl-4-phenyl-tetrahydropyridine-lesioned parkinsonian monkeys. The effects on motor function of these two drugs, alone and in combination with levodopa, were then correlated with NMDA subtype selectivity and apparent affinity for four diheteromeric NMDA receptor subunit combinations expressed in Xenopus oocytes. MDL 100, 453 (300 mg/kg s.c.) by itself increased global motor activity (p =. 0005 versus vehicle) and administered 15 min after a low dose of levodopa/benserazide s.c., MDL 100,453 (50, 300 mg/kg s.c.) showed dose-dependent potentiation of antiparkinsonian responses and also produced dyskinesias.

    ABSTRACT Chemical sensing applications utilizing surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) have drawn significant attention recently. However, developing a reliable, high performance SERS platform remains a challenge. A novel SERS substrate based on nanofingers was successfully demonstrated to provide large enhancement reliably and showed great promise for practical applications. Capillary forces bring the gold caps on the nanofingers into close proximity upon exposure to a solution containing molecules of interest, trapping molecules within the gaps and producing greatly enhanced Raman signals. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to characterize the structure of the nanofingers, in particular the gaps between finger tips to improve the fundamental understanding of the structural-performance relationship.

    ABSTRACT Reflective displays are advantageous in applications requiring low power or daylight readability. However, there are no low-cost reflective technologies capable of displaying bright colors. By employing photoluminescence to more efficiently use ambient light, we created a prototype display that provides bright, full color in a simple, low-cost architecture. This prototype includes a novel electrokinetic shutter, a layer that incorporates patterned luminescent red, green, and blue sub-pixel elements, and a novel optical out-coupling scheme. The luminescent elements convert otherwise-wasted portions of the incident spectrum to light in the desired color band, resulting in improved color saturation and lightness. This prototype provides a color gamut that is superior to competing reflective display technologies that utilize color filters in single-layer side-by-side sub-pixel architectures. The current prototype is capable of switching in
