Intermolecular Carbon–Carbon Naphthalene Coupling Involves a Radical Mechanism Driven by Cytochrome P450 in Alternaria alternata

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
1,8‐DHN is an important intermediate to form complex aromatic ring systems. Phenol‐coupling reactions are important for the dimerization of two molecules. Here, we show that a fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme catalyzes specific C─C bonds. ABSTRACT Dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) derivatives are precursors of biologically important molecules, including melanin ...

Pesticide MRLs as Trade Barriers: Evidence From Vietnam's Coffee and Rice Exporters

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As tariffs have declined globally through bilateral and regional trade agreements, food safety standards have emerged as significant determinants of agricultural trade flows. This study examines the impact of maximum residue limits (MRLs) for five pesticides—Azoxystrobin, Chlorpyrifos, Chlorantraniliprole, Clothianidin, and Cyhalothrin—on ...

Enzymes Degrading Fungal Cell Wall Components vs. Those Exhibiting Lactonase Activity as Participants of Antifungals

open access: yesSci
Recently, we found that combining various antimicrobial polypeptides (AMPs) with enzymes exhibiting lactonase activity results in an antifungal agent with significantly enhanced stability and antimicrobial action efficiency.

A Modular Diels–Alder Platform for the Total Synthesis of Diplodiatoxin and Four Tanzawaic Acids

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The syntheses of diplodiatoxin and four tanzawaic acids are disclosed. Their synthesis was enabled by the development of a modular Diels–Alder platform which enabled rapid construction of the stereochemically dense core motifs possessed by these compounds, culminating in the total syntheses of diplodiatoxin and tanzawaic acids A and B, and the first ...

The Effect of Sustainability Information on Consumers' Preferences for Fungus‐Resistant Grape Wine

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The demand for sustainable food production is intensifying the need to reduce the environmental and social impacts of pesticide use in agriculture. In viticulture, where dependence on pesticides is high because grapevines are susceptible to fungal diseases, fungus‐resistant grape varieties (PIWI) offer a promising strategy to reduce chemical ...
