Is Mycobacterial InhA a Suitable Target for Rational Drug Design?
InhA, an NAD‐dependent enoyl‐acyl carrier protein reductase, is involved in the biosynthesis of mycolic acids, specific lipids to mycobacteria. InhA is the target of isoniazid, a first‐line anti‐tuberculosis drug used since the 1950s. Isoniazid is a prodrug that needs to be activated by the catalase‐peroxidase KatG.

Kallikrein‐related peptidases are a family of serine proteases which loss of activity regulation has been particularly linked to neurodegenerative diseases. Moreover, iron overload is also a key process in some of these leading pathological conditions, particularly Alzheimer’s disease.

catena-Poly[[(nitrato-κ2O,O′)silver(I)]-μ3-4-pyridone-κ3O:O:O]
In the title complex, [Ag(NO3)(C5H5NO)]n, the AgI atom is coordinated by two O atoms from two different 4-pyridone ligands and two O atoms from one nitrate anion, displaying a nearly planar coordination geometry.

Catalytic Dehydrogenation of Lauric Acid and a Potential Use in Polyester Synthesis
A three‐step reaction sequence was developed to synthesize renewable lauric acid–based dimethyl esters. The sequence consists of a catalytic dehydrogenation of saturated fatty acids with molecular oxygen as oxidant, an esterification with methanol, and a dimerization reaction with dithiols via thia‐Michael addition.

Perchloratobis[1-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-2-pyridone]zinc(II) perchlorate
In the title mononuclear complex, [Zn(ClO4)(C17H11N3O)2]ClO4, the ZnII ion is coordinated in a distorted octahedral geometry. The dihedral angles between the pyridine rings and the mean planes of the 1,10-phenanthroline ring system in each of the 1-(1,10-

Unprotected glycosyl pyridinium salts may be accessed in a single step from the corresponding unprotected sugar in aqueous solution. Whilst meta‐ and para‐substitution is well tolerated, ortho substitution of the N‐heterocycle inhibits product formation. Electrochemical studies revealed reduction potentials in the range of −0.9 to −1.4 V.

Chemical constitutions in the Colour Index™: A century of colourant classification
Abstract This article details how the Colour Index™ (CI) system categorises and unambiguously labels commercial dyes and pigments based upon their chemical constitutions. It outlines the current process by which colourants that are new to the market find a place within CI and acquire generic identifiers.
