A traceless polymer-supported synthesis of 4-benzoylquinazolines was developed using the following commercially available building blocks: Fmoc-α-amino acids, 2-nitrobenzensulfonyl chlorides and α-bromoacetophenones. The acyclic intermediates underwent base-catalyzed rearrangement involving C-C and N-N bond formation followed by ring expansion and yielded resin-bound dihydroquinazoline-2-carboxylic acids. After they were released from the resin by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid, base-mediated decarboxylation produced the target quinazolines in moderate-to-high yields and purities.

The aim of this paper is to control the DOC outlet gas temperature between 600 ± 15 °C by optimizing the hydrocarbon (HC) injection into the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) for active regeneration of the downstream Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). First, based on the physical model of the DOC thermal dynamics, the energy conservation equation for the gas phase temperature is simplified by using variable substitution, and the energy conservation equation for the solid phase temperature is simplified by considering only the heat generated by the HC injection. By solving the simplified model using the Trapezoidal Rule-Backward Differentiation Formula 2 (TR-BDF2) method and optimizing the model parameters in combination with the Gauss-Newton method, the computational efficiency and accuracy were significantly improved.

Chemical protein synthesis enables access to proteins that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to obtain with traditional means such as recombinant expression. Chemoselective ligations provide the ability to join peptide segments prepared by solid-phase peptide synthesis. While native chemical ligation (NCL) is widely used, it is limited by the need for C-terminal thioesters with suitable reaction kinetics, properly placed native Cys or thiolated derivatives, and peptide segment solubility at low mM concentrations.

To reduce the number of sensors in the SCR catalyst, state feedback and fault diagnosis information are provided. Firstly, a model based on the coupling of flow, heat transfer, and gas-solid phase catalytic reaction in the SCR system is investigated in this paper. The parabolic partial differential equations are simplified by the variable substitution method and the method of lines approach (MOL).

The enormous influence in terms of bioactivity, affinity, and selectivity represented by the replacement of (L)-2,6-dimethyl tyrosine (Dmt) instead of Phenylalanine (Phe) into Nociceptin/orphanin (N/OFQ) neuropeptide analogues has been well documented in the literature. More recently, the non-natural amino acid (L)-2-methyl tyrosine (Mmt), with steric hindrance included between Tyr and Dmt, has been studied because of the modulation of steric effects in opioid peptide chains. Here, we report a new synthetic strategy to obtain Mmt based on the well-known Pd-catalyzed -C(sp)-H activation approach, because there is a paucity of other synthetic routes in the literature to achieve it.

Cyclic peptides offer many advantages compared to their linear counterparts, including prolonged stability within the biological environment and enhanced binding affinity. Typically, peptides are cyclized by forming an amide bond, either on-resin or in solution, through extensive use of orthogonal protecting groups or chemoselective ligation strategies, respectively. Here, we show that the chemoselective tetrazine-thiol exchange is a powerful tool for rapid in situ cyclization of peptides without the need for additional activation reagents or extensive protecting group reshuffling.
