2-(Pyridin-2-yl)ethanol as a protecting group for carboxylic acids: Chemical and thermal cleavage, and conversion of poly[2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl methacrylate] to poly(methacrylic acid)
(2012)In this communication, we show that 2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethanol is a good protecting group for methacrylic acid (MAA), which can be selectively removed, after polymerization, either chemically under alkaline conditions or ...

ABC Triblock Terpolymers with Orthogonally Deprotectable Blocks: Synthesis, Characterization, and Deprotection
(2015)The development and availability of new protecting groups are vital for all branches of synthetic chemistry. Equally vital is the facile and selective removal of these groups, leaving intact other protecting groups which ...

Dynamic Covalent Star Poly(ethylene glycol) Model Hydrogels: A New Platform for Mechanically Robust, Multifunctional Materials
(2017)We develop a new platform of dynamic covalent model polymer networks comprising two types of four-armed star poly(ethylene glycol)s (tetraPEG), one end-functionalized with benzaldehyde groups and the other with ...

Regular and inverse polyampholyte hydrogels: A detailed comparison
(2016)Two series of polyampholyte (PA) hydrogels were prepared via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization, followed by removal of the protecting group of the acidic monomer repeating units (methacrylic ...

Spectroscopic investigations on the effect of humic acid on the formation and solubility of secondary solid phases of Ln2(CO3) 3
(2011)The formation of secondary Ln(III) solid phases (e.g., Nd 2(CO3)3 and Sm2(CO3) 3) was studied as a function of the humic acid concentration in 0.1 mol/L NaClO4 aqueous solution in the neutral pH range (5-6.5). The solid ...

Uranium levels in Cypriot groundwater samples determined by ICP-MS and α-spectroscopy
(2013)The uranium concentration and the isotopic ratio 238U/234U have been determined in Cypriot groundwater samples by ICP-MS after ultrafiltration and acidification of the samples and α-spectroscopy after pre-concentration and ...

Using statistical analysis as an additional tool in porous solid characterization
(2011)Analytical chemists have long used statistical methods to help them organize and interpret experimental data-especially where large numbers of these are generated-as well as to help them design new experiments. Recently, ...
