Features and Benefits

The vapor-phase co-reductions with other metal halides by hydrogen results in finely divided intermetallics with applications as structural materials or compounds with useful thermoelectric, magnetic, and oxidation-resistance properties. Aluminum nitride can be synthesized from the elemnts with AlCl3 added to help facilitate crystallization.

Aluminum (Al) is an environmental neurotoxin that affects cerebral functions and causes health complications. However, the role of Al in arbitrating glia homeostasis and pathophysiology remains obscure. Astrocyte, microglia activation (reactive gliosis), and associated inflammatory events play a decisive role

A conceptually new and straightforward introduction of sulfonyl groups at the C-7 position of an indole ring has been achieved via AlCl(3) mediated unexpected regioselective sulfonyl group migration for N-alkyl/aryl/heteroarylsulfonyl indoles affording potential inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv chorismate mutase.

Environmental agent aluminum, a well-known neurotoxin, has been proposed to play a role in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and produced clinical and pathological features which were strikingly similar to those seen in AD brain, such as neurofibrillary tangles.

An unprecedented AlCl3-promoted formal [2 + 3]-cycloaddition of 1,1-cyclopropanes with readily available N-benzylic sulfonamides has been developed. Experimental evidence supports an unusual mechanism wherein the donor-acceptor cyclopropane serves as a source of 2-styrylmalonate rather than the "classical" 1,3-dipole. A broad
