«Малобюджетний» маркетинг

В умовах сьогоднішньої економічної кризи, яка зачепила всі вітчизняні підприємства, та постійного зниження української національної валюти актуальними стають питання пошуку способів економії коштів. Вирішенням таких проблем може стати «мало бюджетний» маркетинг, який допоможе розвиватися підприємству з використанням мінімальної кількості ресурсів. «Малобюджетний» маркетинг – це маркетингові інструменти залучення й утримання клієнтів, які припускають мінімальні витрати, а іноді можна взагалі обійтися без бюджету

Acid- and Base-Stable Porous Organic Cages: Shape Persistence and pH Stability via Post-synthetic “Tying” of a Flexible Amine Cage

Imine cage molecules can be reduced to amines to improve their chemical stability, but this introduces molecular flexibility. Hence, amine cages tend not to exhibit permanent solid-state porosity. We report a synthetic strategy to achieve shape persistence in amine cages by tying the cage vertices with carbonyls such as formaldehyde. Shape persistence is predicted by conformer stability calculations, providing a design basis for the strategy. The tied cages show enhanced porosity and unprecedented chemical stability toward acidic and basic conditions (pH 1.7–12.3), where many other porous crystalline solids would fail

On Crystal versus Fiber Formation in Dipeptide Hydrogelator Systems

Naphthalene dipeptides have been shown to be useful low-molecular-weight gelators. Here we have used a library to explore the relationship between the dipeptide sequence and the hydrogelation efficiency. A number of the naphthalene dipeptides are crystallizable from water, enabling us to investigate the comparison between the gel/fiber phase and the crystal phase. We succeeded in crystallizing one example directly from the gel phase. Using X-ray crystallography, molecular modeling, and X-ray fiber diffraction, we show that the molecular packing of this crystal structure differs from the structure of the gel/fiber phase. Although the crystal structures may provide important insights into stabilizing interactions, our analysis indicates a rearrangement of structural packing within the fibers. These observations are consistent with the fibrillar interactions and interatomic separations promoting 1D assembly whereas in the crystals the peptides are aligned along multiple axes, allowing 3D growth. This observation has an impact on the use of crystal structures to determine supramolecular synthons for gelators
