Alkenylation and Allylation of Aldehydes by Using an Ni/Cr/TDAE Redox System
In 360 females, Bone mineral density (BMD) in lumbar vertebrae (L2-L4) was assessed by quantitative computed tomography (QCT), and the values obtained were compared with the frequency of vertebral transformation or
fracture as assessed by lateral scan image (scanogram) by X-ray CT. A correlation was observed between the frequency of vertebral transformation (or fracture) and lumbar BMD values : BMD under 125 mg/cm(3) was observed over 90% of women with vertebral transformation, and BMD under 70mg/cm(3) was found about 50% of them. These results suggest that decrease in BMD in lumbar vertebrae leads to vertebral transformation or fracture. Thus, measurement of BMD by QCT would be very useful in predicting vertebral
transformation or fractures
Pushing the limits of neutral organic electron donors : A tetra(iminophosphorano)-substituted bispyridinylidene
A new ground-state organic electron donor has been prepared that features four strongly π-donating iminophosphorano substituents on a bispyridinylidene skeleton. Cyclic voltammetry reveals a record redox potential of −1.70 V vs. saturated calomel electrode (SCE) for the couple involving the neutral organic donor and its dication. This highly reducing organic compound can be isolated (44 %) or more conveniently generated in situ by a deprotonation reaction involving its readily prepared pyridinium ion precursor. This donor is able to reduce a variety of aryl halides, and, owing to its redox potential, was found to be the first organic donor to be effective in the thermally induced reductive S[BOND]N bond cleavage of N,N-dialkylsulfonamides, and reductive hydrodecyanation of malonitriles
Chiral azabicyclo-N-oxyls mediated enantioselective electrooxidation of sec-alcohols
Enantiomerically pure azabicyclo-N-oxyls were prepared from l-hydroxyproline. They mediated enantioselective electrooxidation of racemic sec-alcohols to afford optically active sec-alcohols with moderate to high s value (up to 21)
当院における過去5年間の高齢子宮体がん患者の治療に関する検討
京都府立医科大学附属北部医療センター 産婦人科Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology???? North Medical Center Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicineがん治療において年齢に応じた治療を考慮しなければならない場合がある。当院で初回治療を施行した子宮体がん患者32例に対し高齢群(70歳以上)と若年群(70歳未満)で検討したところ、高齢群で再発中リスク群以上の化学療法未施行率が有意に多かった。既往症や手術内容、有害事象発生率、再発率は同等であった。高齢子宮体がん患者に対しても高齢者機能評価等で患者状態を正しく評価することで標準治療が可能と考えられた。(著者抄録
Fluorinated musk fragrances : the CF2 group as a conformational bias influencing the odour of civetone and (R)-muscone
This work was supported by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and the European Research Council (ERC). The authors acknowledge the EPSRC National Mass Spectrometry Facility (Swansea). M.Y. thanks the China Scholarship Council for financial support. D.O'H. thanks the Royal Society for a Wolfson Research Merit Award.The difluoromethylene (CF2) group has a strong tendency to adopt corner over edge locations in aliphatic macrocycles. In this study, the CF2 group has been introduced into musk relevant macrocyclic ketones. Nine civetone and five muscone analogues have been prepared by synthesis for structure and odour comparisons. X-ray studies indeed show that the CF2 groups influence ring structure and they give some insight into the preferred ring conformations, triggering a musk odour as determined in a professional perfumery environment. The historical conformational model of Bersuker and co-workers for musk fragrance generally holds, and structures that become distorted from this consensus, by the particular placement of the CF2 groups, lose their musk fragrance and become less pleasant.PostprintPeer reviewe
