Mea Culpa: Formal Education And The Dis-Integrated World., Brian P. Coppola, Douglas S. Daniels
Chemistry Faculty Publications
Formal education has removed itself so far from any truly integrated view of the Natural World that fragmentation and certainty are prevailing ethics. Technological progress has resulted in increased specialization within academic disciplines and their concurrent separation from each other. Knowledge is extracted from a fully integrated world, but is examined and defined by the 'dis-integrated' objectives.
Metathesis-Based Synthesis Of Jasmonate And Homojasmonate Lactones, Candidates For Extracellular Quorum Sensing Molecules In Candida Albicans, Su C. Cho, Patrick Dussault, Amber D. Lisec, Ellen C. Jensen, Kenneth W. Nickerson
Metathesis-Based Synthesis Of Jasmonate And Homojasmonate Lactones, Candidates For Extracellular Quorum Sensing Molecules In Candida Albicans, Su C. Cho, Patrick Dussault, Amber D. Lisec, Ellen C. Jensen, Kenneth W. Nickerson

Ring-closing metathesis of jasmonate esters is shown to provide a rapid entry to jasmonate lactones. The lactones were investigated as possible quorum sensing molecules for the fungi Candida albicans. Assays demonstrated no effect on fungal morphology at concentrations up to 96 mM.
Substituted Polythiophenes From Highly Reactive Zinc Reagents, Reuben D. Rieke
Substituted Polythiophenes From Highly Reactive Zinc Reagents, Reuben D. Rieke
Department of Chemistry: Faculty Publications
A novel Zerovalent zinc species and an organozinc reagent are disclosed. The zerovalent zinc species is directly pro duced by reaction of a reducing agent on a zinc salt, preferably Zn(CN)2. The organozinc reagent results from the reaction of the zerovalent zinc species and an organic compound having one or more stable anionic leaving groups. These organozinc reagents include a wide spectrum of functional groups in the organic radical, and are useful in a variety of reactions schemes.
Cross-Coupling Of Organic Compounds Using Cuprous Odide, Reuben D. Rieke
Cross-Coupling Of Organic Compounds Using Cuprous Odide, Reuben D. Rieke
Department of Chemistry: Faculty Publications
Cross-coupling or addition reactions of organic compounds, including acid halides, allylic halides, and C.B-unsaturated carbonyl containing compounds, with organozinc com pounds may be readily and Safely carried out in the presence of cuprous iodide. The use of this catalyst in the coupling reaction provides for the preparation of commercially useful products in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical and other industries.
