  • Publication number: 20200040013
    Abstract: Compounds and method of preparation of Si—X and Ge—X compounds (X=N, P, As and Sb) via dehydrogenative coupling between the corresponding unsubstituted silanes and amines (including ammonia) or phosphines catalyzed by metallic catalysts is described. This new approach is based on the catalytic dehydrogenative coupling of a Si—H and a X—H moiety to form a Si—X containing compound and hydrogen gas (X=N, P, As and Sb). The process can be catalyzed by transition metal heterogenous catalysts such as Ru(O) on carbon, Pd(O) on MgO) as well as transition metal organometallic complexes that act as homogeneous catalysts. The —Si—X products produced by dehydrogenative coupling are inherently halogen free. Said compounds can be useful for the deposition of thin films by chemical vapor deposition or atomic layer deposition of Si—containing films.

  • Publication number: 20200040035
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an antimicrobial peptide having an improved antibacterial effect through glutamic acid substitution and, more specifically, to a use of the antimicrobial peptide as an active ingredient in an antibacterial pharmaceutical composition, a food additive, a feed additive, an antiseptic composition, and an antibacterial quasi-drug composition. Not only does the antimicrobial peptide of the present invention exhibit significant antibacterial activity against gram-negative bacteria, but it also exhibits a significant synergistic effect when combinedly treated with antibiotics which have strong antibacterial activity only against gram-positive bacteria and has no or low antibacterial activity against gram-negative bacteria, thereby exhibiting excellent antibacterial effects on gram-positive bacteria, E. coli and Acinetobacter bacteria among gram-negative bacteria, and antibiotic-resistant strains thereof.
