Article Synopsis
- Fouling on filtration membranes is a major issue due to nonspecific interactions between the membrane surface and contaminants, impacting efficiency in various applications.
- A new method was developed to create a dual stimuli-responsive antifouling microgel coating with a high amount of zwitterionic polymer, enhancing the membrane's performance.
- The study demonstrated that the modified membranes exhibited improved protein-repelling capabilities, responding to changes in temperature and salt concentration for better filtration outcomes.
The stereoselectivity of a Diels-Alder reaction within the periphery of hierarchically assembled titanium(IV) helicates formed from mixtures of achiral, reactive and chiral, unreactive ligands was investigated in detail. Following the pathway of the chiral induction, the chiral ligands, solvents as well as substituents at the dienophile were carefully varied. Based on the results of the stoichiometric reaction, a secondary amine-catalyzed nitro-Michael reaction is performed as well which afforded reasonable diastereoselectivities.
