A Biocatalytic Platform for Synthesis of Chiral α-Trifluoromethylated Organoborons [PDF]
There are few biocatalytic transformations that produce fluorine-containing molecules prevalent in modern pharmaceuticals. To expand the scope of biocatalysis for organofluorine synthesis, we have developed an enzymatic platform for highly ...

Review of QSAR Models and Software Tools for predicting Acute and Chronic Systemic Toxicity [PDF]
Information on acute and chronic systemic toxicity, arising from the oral, dermal and inhalation routes of exposure, are key elements in the regulatory assessment of chemicals. Traditionally, this information is obtained from animal studies. However, due

We identified a novel N9‐substituted harmine analog, compound 6, that selectively suppresses leukemic cell growth, triggers DNA damage, and activates apoptosis while sparing healthy fibroblasts. This discovery highlights N9‐modified β‐carbolines as a powerful new class of selective antileukemic agents, bridging natural product chemistry with next ...
