Asymmetric synthesis of 2-substituted oxetan-3-ones via metalated SAMP/RAMP hydrazones [PDF]
2-Substituted oxetan-3-ones can be prepared in good yields and enantioselectivities (up to 84% ee) by the metalation of the SAMP/RAMP hydrazones of oxetan-3-one, followed by reaction with a range of electrophiles that include alkyl, allyl, and benzyl ...

Direct C2–H alkylation of indoles driven by the photochemical activity of halogen-bonded complexes
A light-driven metal-free protocol for the synthesis of sulfone-containing indoles under mild conditions is reported. Specifically, the process is driven by the photochemical activity of halogen-bonded complexes formed upon complexation of a sacrificial ...

On the prevalence of bridged macrocyclic pyrroloindolines formed in regiodivergent alkylations of tryptophan. [PDF]
A Friedel-Crafts alkylation is described that efficiently transforms tryptophan-containing peptides into macrocycles of varying ring connectivity. Factors are surveyed that influence the distribution of regioisomers, with a focus on indole C3-alkylations

The NADPH-Dependent thioredoxin reductase C-2-Cys peroxiredoxin redox system modulates the activity of thioredoxin x in arabidopsis chloroplasts [PDF]
The chloroplast redox network is composed of a complex set of thioredoxins (Trxs), reduced by ferredoxin (Fdx) via a Fdx-dependent Trx reductase (FTR), and an NADPH-dependent Trx reductase with a joint Trx domain, NTRC, which efficiently reduces 2-Cys ...

Direct C(sp2)–H alkylation of unactivated arenes enabled by photoinduced Pd catalysis
Direct catalytic C(sp2)–H alkylation of unactivated arenes with alkyl halides remains elusive despite the progress in C-H functionalization. Here, the authors report the catalytic C(sp2)–H alkylation of unactivated arenes with alkyl bromides via visible ...
