A highly strained Al-Al σ-bond in dianionic aluminum analog of oxirane for molecule activation by Koshino, Kota, Kinjo, Rei

“…The structure of 2 has been unambiguously ascertained by spectroscopic analysis as well as X-ray crystallography, and computational studies revealed that 2 bears a highly strained Al-Al σ-bond. 2 readily reacts with the unsaturated substrates such as isocyanide, ethylene, and ketone, concomitant with the cleavage of the Al-Al σ-bond under mild conditions, leading to the four- and five-membered heterocycles 3-5. …”

Enrichment of SWNT species with chemical approaches and mechanism investigation by Pan, Xiaoyong

“…A series of pyrene derivatives were synthesized and their separation effects on SWNTs based on the electronic properties and diameters have been demonstrated. To overcome the problem enforced by the poor dispersion with the amide-functionalized pyrene derivatives, a series of Polymethacrylates with pendant aromatic functional groups were investigated for their selectivity in SWNTs separation. …”
