Harsh environment and changing work conditions (frequent start-stop, low/high speed, and boundary lubrication/dry friction) are the major factors causing the decrease of load carrying capacity, severe wear and poor reliability of friction pairs in mechanical seals. They are also the main challenge in the development of key parts for mechanical s...
The development of practical and efficient chiral catalytic systems for asymmetric organic reactions is one of the most important subjects in synthetic organic chemistry. In general, conformationally rigid chiral ligands have been proven to be extremely useful for the construction of a good oriented and fixed chiral environment around the metal ...
The biology and bioinspired catalysis research group at the State Key Laboratory for Oxo Synthesis and Selective Oxidation, Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), have synthesized novel bioinspired manganese complexes based on N4 ligands, with a more rigid, chiral diamine derived from proline and two ben...
