A novel capillary zone electrophoretic method based on the use of propanol-modified beta-cyclodextrin buffers has been developed; it unambiguously detects and quantitates the optical isomers of racemethorphan and racemorphan without prior derivatization. Detection limits in urine down to 20 ppb have been obtained. The method uses a solid-phase extraction recovery of analytes followed by ultraviolet detection. Separation conditions include the use of 60mM beta-cyclodextrin and 50mM sodium dodecyl sulfate in a buffer containing 20% 1-propanol.

Geometries and electronic structures of planar and quasi-planar boron clusters resemble those of aromatic hydrocarbons, providing opportunities for designing novel nonlinear optical materials. However, the nonlinear optical properties, optical-response mechanisms, and optimal optical-response geometries of boron clusters remain unclear. Accordingly, this study addresses these uncertainties.

Multiple Diels-Alder reactions are a powerful method to construct large asymmetric scaffolds, but these reactions often produce numerous isomers. We now report a triple Diels-Alder reaction between a cyclic furan trimer and -substituted maleimides, achieving selective synthesis of a single asymmetric tris-adduct. The stereoselectivity of cycloaddition to π-extended furan derivatives was clarified by the experimental analysis of intermediates and theoretical calculations.

Nucleoside derivatives having a 4-substituent show promise as potential antiviral agents as well as nucleoside units for constructing nucleic acid medicines. To develop new nucleosides, it is crucial to achieve feasible access to the intended derivatives, encompassing both enantiomers. Toward this end, we started synthesizing an achiral 4-hydroxymethyldihydrofuran as a sugar precursor, which we subjected to the oxidative glycosylation reaction using hypervalent iodine.

The fungal genus Fusarium is a treasure-trove of structurally diverse secondary metabolites, contributed greatly by marine-derived strains. A new cedrane sesquiterpene, fusacedrol (1), and a new fusarin member, fusarin M (2), were isolated from F. graminearum 12Ⅱ2N that was isolated as an endophyte from the marine brown alga Sargassum sp.

Metal-organic complexes with long afterglow luminescence have attracted extensive attention due to potential applications in display, sensing and information security. However, most of the metal-organic complex long afterglow materials reported so far are limited to the use of UV light as the excitation source, and the ambiguity of the structure-activity relationship makes the development of metal-organic complexes extremely limited. Herein, a series of metal-organic complexes with ultralong emission lifetime is constructed by coordination assembly of Zn(II) with three isomers.
