Ladderanes are hydrocarbons consisting of two or more fused cyclobutane rings. These
molecules and their derivatives are of fundamental interest to physical organic chemists due …

The first total synthesis of (±)-pentacycloanammoxic acid/methyl ester (1), an unusual
naturally occurring fatty acid from Candidatus Brocadia anammoxidans, has been …

A highly effective enantioselective synthesis of pentacycloanammoxic acid (1), an unusual
naturally occurring fatty acid from Candidatus Brocadia anammoxidans, has been …

Polyladderane, the first polymer to contain the ladderane functional group, was synthesized
from a gemini monomer through photoreaction in the solid state. The modular design of the …

In this study, we report theoretical specific rotation values for a series of cis‐/trans‐alkylated‐
[5]‐ladderanes and cis‐/trans‐methylated‐[n]‐ladderanes. Using time‐dependent density …

The ring strain energies in a series of [n] ladderanes (n= 3− 8) have been calculated by
using high-level ab initio method (G3MP2//B3LYP-6− 31G*) and the series of isodesmic …

The parent ladder polysilanes R4Si2−(Si2R2) n− Si2R4 (R= H, n= 0− 7), composed of a
catenation of cyclotetrasilane rings, and their corresponding methyl-(R= CH3) and silyl …

A 2D lanthanum-dicarboxylate MOF of the formula [La2 (hex) 3 (H2O) 6]· 9H2O (H2hex=
trans, trans-hexadiendioic acid or trans, trans-muconic acid) has been synthesized by the …

This study focusses on the [2+ 2]-photocycloaddition of a symmetric polyenic system
tethered by an aryl bis-sulfide or sulfone platform. Using direct irradiation or …

Sponges and their associated microbial communities are capable of dramatically altering
the water chemistry of their surrounding environment by rapidly pumping water through their …
