3-Pentadecyl-2,4-dioxo-16-crown-5 as a promising additive in electrolytes for chemical power sources
摘要:
A new crown ether, 3-pentadecyl-2,4-dioxo-16-crown-5, with surfactant properties has been synthesized in three simple steps from diethyl pentadecylmalonate. Quantum chemical calculations show that this crown ether is capable of adsorbing both on the surface of the lithium anode and on the surface of carbon. The effectiveness of its application as a functional additive in organic electrolyte for lithium batteries has been experimentally confirmed.
peculiar profile of pentadecylidenemalonate 1b, the first activator/inhibitor of histoneacetyltransferases. Together with the powerful apoptotic effect (particularly notable if considering that anacardic acid and other KAT inhibitors are not cell permeable) appoint them as valuable biological tools to understand the mechanisms of lysineacetyltransferases.

Detergents serve as useful tools for membraneprotein structural and functional studies. Their amphipathic nature allows detergents to associate with the hydrophobic regions of membraneproteins whilst maintaining the proteins in aqueous solution. However, widely used conventional detergents are limited in their ability to maintain the structural integrity of membraneproteins and thus there are major efforts
