Novel uses of diamondoid-containing materials in the field of microelectronics are disclosed. Embodiments include, but are not limited to, thermally conductive films in integrated circuit packaging, low-k dielectric layers in integrated circuit multilevel interconnects, thermally conductive adhesive films, thermally conductive films in thermoelectric cooling devices, passivation films for integrated circuit devices (ICs), and field emission cathodes. The diamondoids employed in the present invention may be selected from lower diamondoids, as well as the newly provided higher diamondoids, including substituted and unsubstituted diamondoids. The higher diamondoids include tetramantane, pentamantane, hexamantane, heptamantane, octamantane, nonamantane, decamantane, and undecamantane. The diamondoid-containing material may be fabricated as a diamondoid-containing polymer, a diamondoid-containing sintered ceramic, a diamondoid ceramic composite, a CVD diamondoid film, a self-assembled diamondoid film, and a diamondoid-fullerene composite.

Methods of treating a fungal or yeast infection and of killing or inhibiting fungi or yeast are disclosed. The methods use derivatives of triterpenes that are abundant in birch bark and other plants. The triterpenes include betulin, allobetulin, and lupeol.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for preparing an ester of betulin at the 3-position, e.g., betulin-3-acetate, including the selective alcoholysis of a betulin-3,28-diester, e.g., betulin-3,28-diacetate; a method for preparing betulin-3-acetate including (1) acetylating betulin to provide betulin-3,28-diacetate and (2) the alcoholysis of betulin-3,28-diacetate to provide betulin-3-acetate; a method for preparing betulinic acid from betulin-3-acetate including (1) acetylating betulin to provide betulin-3,28-diacetate, (2) the alcoholysis of betulin-3,28-diacetate to provide betulin-3-acetate, (3) oxidizing betulin-3-acetate to provide betulinic aldehyde-3-acetate, (4) oxidizing betulinic aldehyde-3-acetate to provide betulinic acid-3-acetate, and (5) deprotecting betulinic acid-3-acetate to provide betulinic acid.

摘要:
This invention is related to heteroatom containing diamondoids (i.e., “heterodiamondoids”) which are compounds having a diamondoid nucleus in which one or more of the diamondoid nucleus carbons has been substitutionally replaced with a noncarbon atom. These heteroatom substituents impart desirable properties to the diamondoid. In addition, the heterodiamondoids are functionalized affording compounds carrying one or more functional groups covalently pendant therefrom. This invention is further related to polymerizable functionalized heterodiamondoids. In a preferred aspect of this invention the diamondoid nuclei are triamantane and higher diamondoid nuclei. In another preferred aspect, the heteroatoms are selected to give rise to diamondoid materials which can serve as n- and p-type materials in electronic devices can serve as optically active materials.
