Samples from the carbonaceous asteroid (162173) Ryugu provide information on chemical evolution of organic molecules in early solar system. Here we show element partitioning major component ions by sequential extractions salts, carbonates, and phyllosilicate-bearing fractions to reveal primordial brine composition primitive asteroid. Sodium is dominant electrolyte salt fraction extract. Anions NH4+ are more abundant than carbonate phyllosilicate fractions, with molar concentrations order...

As the largest secondary metabolite to be discovered as of yet, polyether marine neurotoxin maitotoxin constitutes a major structural and synthetic challenge. After its originally proposed structure (1) had been questioned on basis biosynthetic considerations, we provided computational experimental support for 1. In an effort provide stronger evidence molecular architecture maitotoxin, GHIJKLMNO ring system 3 was synthesized. The 13C NMR chemical shifts matched closely those corresponding...
Abstract This paper reports on the evaluation of diamagnetic energy using loops in JT-60SA, largest operating tokamak world, and revisits physics behind poloidal beta (βp) internal inductance (li). During first operation phase measurements were utilized assessing parameters related to plasma equilibrium, such as stored energy, βp li. The evaluated is above 200 kJ with 1 MJ electron cyclotron heating, we observed li rise from around unity 2 during current ramp- down phase. successfully...
Patients with severe liver dysfunction present significant perioperative challenges, including the risk of postoperative cognitive (POCD) and hepatic encephalopathy (HE), after general anesthesia. While avoiding anesthesia deep sedation is crucial for early recovery in this patient population, neuraxial block techniques are often contraindicated due to coagulation disorders. A 73-year-old male (190 cm tall, weighing 77 kg) Child-Pugh C cirrhosis (score 10), coagulopathy (platelets 90,000/μL,...
Epidural analgesia is typically avoided in patients with portal hypertension due to multiple risk factors: engorgement of epidural venous plexuses, platelet dysfunction despite normal counts, and potential postoperative coagulopathy following liver surgery. These risks persist even when preoperative coagulation parameters appear normal. While peripheral nerve blocks are increasingly utilized for minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures, intertransverse process block (ITPB) catheter...
Abstract In the control of large superconducting tokamaks, particularly for devices like DEMO reactors, where no stabilizing plates or in-vessel coils due to existence tritium blankets, position, shape, and current plasmas must be controlled solely with coils, which we developed novel schemes [S. Inoue et al., Nuclear Fusion 61, 096009 (2021)]; an adaptive voltage allocation (AVA) scheme automatically allocates power supply voltages plasma position/shape control, a robust last closed flux...

The MIDA touch: A concise and highly convergent protecting-group-free total synthesis of (−)-myxalamide involves a stereoselective vinylogous Mukaiyama aldol reaction vinylketene silyl N,O-acetal, together with one-pot Stille/Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling using Burke's N-methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA) boronate to connect left- right-hand fragments the molecule (see scheme).
(+)-Iso-A82775C is a proposed biosynthetic precursor of the chloropupukeananin family and an important intermediate for related natural products. The first enantioselective total synthesis (+)-iso-A82775C (18 steps, 2.2% overall yield) toward eventual biomimetic described. key steps are (1) Diels–Alder reaction 4-bromo-3-hydroxy-2-pyrone with methyl 2-chloroacrylate using cinchonine as organocatalyst (2) anti-selective Cu-mediated SN2′ to afford axially chiral vinylallene moiety.
