The reaction-based deposition on various surfaces of an all-organic fluorescent coating is reported here, involving autoxidation of 2 mM dopamine in carbonate buffer at pH 9.0, in the presence of a 1 mM diamine–resorcinol coupler (Bis–Res) prepared from 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and hexamethylenediamine (HMDA). Spectral analysis of the films coupled with an LC-MS investigation of the yellow fluorescent mixture was compatible with the formation and deposition of HMDA-linked methanobenzofuroazocinone fluorophores. Both the emission properties and hydrophobicity of the film were abated in a reversible manner following exposure to acid vapors. These results provide an entry to efficient and practical fluorescent coating methodologies based on in situ generation and the deposition of wet adhesive, as well as fluorescent materials combining a strongly emitting fluorophore with the film-forming properties of long chain diamines.

Efficient addition between various nitrile oxides and both short (C2) and long chain (C16) alkyl thiols , aliphatic dithiols and aryl thiols occurred rapidly at ambient temperature with the formation of thiohydroximic acid derivatives. Competitive experiments with bis( nitrile oxides) showed that for terephthalonitrile oxide the second addition proceeded more readily than the first whereas with anthracene-9,l0-bis(carbonitrile oxide) elevated temperatures were needed to obtain the diadduct. Relative reactivities of a number of thiols with nitrile oxides were also determined spectroscopically . Reaction between prop-2-ene-1-thiol and p-nitrobenzonitrile oxide afforded products resulting from both cycloaddition and 1,3-addition with the latter predominating. The polysulfide prepolymer LP-2 was cured effectively at ambient temperatures by both terephthalonitrile oxide and 4,4'-sulfonylbisbenzonitrile dioxide at CNO to SH ratios of 1.5 and higher giving tack-free products within 0.5 h and 90% cure in under 4 h. For the less highly cross-linked LP-32-based sealants, curing was a little slower. Unreinforced sealants produced in this manner were firm elastomers with hardness of 35-40 (Rex A). The naphthalenebis (carbonitrile oxides) afforded softer products while anthracene-9,10- bis(carbonitrile oxide) was ineffective. One-part formulations involving in situ generation of nitrile oxide from hydroximoyl chlorides and barium hydroxide (formed by action of water vapour on barium oxide) were also produced.

In the past decade, the long-neglected ceramides (N-acylsphingosines) have become one of the most attractive lipid molecules in molecular cell biology, because of their involvement in essential structures (stratum corneum) and processes (cell signalling). Most natural ceramides have a long (16-24 C atoms) N-acyl chain, but short N-acyl chain ceramides (two to six C atoms) also exist in Nature, apart from being extensively used in experimentation, because they can be dispersed easily in water. Long-chain ceramides are among the most hydrophobic molecules in Nature, they are totally insoluble in water and they hardly mix with phospholipids in membranes, giving rise to ceramide-enriched domains. In situ enzymic generation, or external addition, of long-chain ceramides in membranes has at least three important effects: (i) the lipid monolayer tendency to adopt a negative curvature, e.g. through a transition to an inverted hexagonal structure, is increased, (ii) bilayer permeability to aqueous solutes is notoriously enhanced, and (iii) transbilayer (flip-flop) lipid motion is promoted. Short-chain ceramides mix much better with phospholipids, promote a positive curvature in lipid monolayers, and their capacities to increase bilayer permeability or transbilayer motion are very low or non-existent.

Abstract:: Minisci-type reactions have become widely known as reactions that involve the addition of carbon-centered radicals to basic heteroarenes followed by formal hydrogen atom loss. While the originally developed protocols for radical generation remain in active use today, in recent years by a new array of radical generation strategies allow use of a wider variety of radical precursors that often operate under milder and more benign conditions. New transformations based on free radical reactivity are now available to a synthetic chemist looking to utilize a Minisci-type reaction. Radical-generation methods based on photoredox catalysis and electrochemistry, which utilize thermal cleavage or the in situ generation of reactive radical precursors, have become popular approaches. Our review will cover the remarkably literature that has appeared on this topic in recent 5 years, from 2015-01 to 2020-01, in an attempt to provide guidance to the synthetic chemist, on both the challenges that have been overcome and applications in organic synthesis.

Embedding stereolithography (eSLA) is an additive, hybrid process, which provides a flexible production of 3D components and the ability to integrate electrical and optical conductive structures and functional components within parts. However, the embedding of conductive circuits in stereolithography (SLA) parts assumes usage of process technologies, which enables their direct integration of conductive circuits during the layer-wise building process. In this context, a promising method for in-situ generation of conductive circuits is dispensing of conductive adhesive on the current surface of the SLA part and its subsequent sintering. In this paper, the laser sintering (λ = 355 nm) of conductive adhesive mainly consisting of silver nanoparticles is investigated. The work intends to evaluate the curing behavior of the conductive adhesive, the beam-matter-interactions and the thermal damage of the SLA substrate. The investigations revealed a fast and flexible laser sintering process for the generation of conductive circuits with sufficient electrical conductivity and sufficient current capacity load. In this context, a characterization of the conductive structures is done by measuring their electrical resistance and their potential current capacity load.
