(+-)-4-(tert-Butyldimethylsiloxy)-3a,4,7,7a-tetrahydrobenzo[b] thiophen -3(2H)-one 1,1-dioxide, C14H24O4SSi, Mr = 316.49, monoclinic, P2(1)/n, a = 7.1431 (7), b = 19.643 (2), c = 12.528 (1) A, beta = 104.810 (8) degrees, V = 1699.4-(3) A3, Z = 4, Dx = 1.24 g cm-3, Mo K alpha radiation, lambda = 0.71073 A, mu = 2.597 cm-1, F(000) = 680, T = 298 K, R = 0.0566 for 2733 reflections [Fo greater than or equal to 4o-(fo)]. The two rings are cisfused with the cyclohexene ring in the half-chair conformation while the thiophene moiety has the envelope conformation. The endocyclic bond angles of the cyclohexene ring are enlarged, especially at the bridgehead C atoms, C3a and C7a, which have angles 116.0 (2) and 116.8 (2)o, respectively. There are several close intramolecular contacts: C3...O11 2.614 (3), O10...O11 3.137 (3), O10...C7 3.073 (4) A. Adjacent molecules related by 1-x, 1-y, 2-z stack so that the carbonyl O and C atoms of one molecule lie directly over the carbonyl C and O atoms of the second molecule. The C...O distance is 3.023 (3) A in this intermolecular interaction.

In homogeneous catalysis, uncovering structure-activity relationships remains very rare but invaluable to understand and rationally improve performances. Here, generalizable structure-activity relationships apply to a series of heterodinuclear polymerization catalysts featuring Co(III) and s-block metals M(I/II) (M=Na(I), K(I), Ca(II), Sr(II), Ba(II)). These are shown to apply to polycarbonate production by the ring-opening copolymerizations (ROCOP) of cyclohexene oxide (CHO) and carbon dioxide (CO), conducted at high (20 bar) and low (1 bar) CO pressures, and to polyester production by copolymerization of cyclohexene oxide and phthalic anhydride (PA).

Cassava (Manihot esculentum Crantz) is a staple food source for many developing countries. Its edible roots are high in starch but lack micronutrients such as β-carotene. In the present study, analysis of pedigree breeding populations has led to the identification of cassava accessions with enhanced β-carotene contents up to 40 μg/g DW.

β-Ionone is the end-ring counterpart of β-carotenoids, which are widely found in fruits and vegetables. Recent studies have illustrated the antimetastatic, anti-proliferative, and apoptosis-inducing activities of β-ionone both in vitro and in vivo. We aimed to explore the anti-cancer potency of β-Ionone-derived ester, (E)-4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-enyl) but-3-en-2-ylpyrazine-2-carboxylate (4-TM.

A switchable, solvent-free catalytic system was developed in which Al methyl aminebis(phenolate) catalysts selectively initiate the formation of a polyether from cyclohexene oxide under CO atmosphere or the ring opening copolymerisation (ROCoP) of cyclohexene oxide and CO through the addition of a PPNCl (bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium chloride) cocatalyst to form poly(cyclohexene carbonate).

Ubiquitin-specific proteases (UBPs), the largest subfamily of deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs), are critical for plant growth and development as well as abiotic-stress responses. In this study, we discovered that the expression of the () gene of the gene () was induced by salt, mannitol and abscisic acid (ABA) treatments. Further research revealed that UBP15 is involved in modulation of salt, drought tolerance and ABA signaling during seed germination, early seedling development, post-germination root growth or adult-plant stage.
