Targeting Expanded CUG and CTG Repeats as a Therapeutic Approach for Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1)
DM1 is an RNA gain‐of‐function disease caused by CTG repeat expansion, producing toxic r(CUG)exp RNA that sequesters MBNL1 and impairs splicing. This review covers the field of CUG and CTG ligands identified or rationally designed as DM1 drug candidates, highlighting their molecular design, RNA‐ or DNA‐binding modes, in vitro affinities and ...

1,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions of N-Benzyl Furfuryl Nitrones with Electron-rich Alkenes
The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of N-benzyl-C-(2-furyl)nitrones with electron-rich alkenes gives preferentially trans-substituted 3,5-disubstituted isoxazolidines (endo approach).

Reversible Nanocomposites With Carbon Nanotubes as the Diene in the Diels–Alder Reaction
Scheme of the reversible nanocomposites through DA and rDA reactions with participation of carbon nanotubes. ABSTRACT Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) often require surface functionalization to facilitate uniform distribution and address issues related to aggregation. Due to the sp2 hybridized carbon atoms on their surface, CNTs readily participate in the Diels–

Kinetic and Thermodynamic Approaches for the Efficient Formation of Mechanical Bonds [PDF]
Among the growing collection of molecular systems under consideration for nanoscale device applications, mechanically interlocked compounds derived from electrochemically switchable bistable [2]rotaxanes and [2]catenanes show great promise. These systems

Bis‐Furans: A Sustainable Source of Diverse Molecular Architectures
A concise synthetic route to diverse acyclic and heterocyclic compounds has been developed by combining hetero‐Diels–Alder reactions, DBU‐promoted ring openings, and Lewis base‐catalyzed annulations. Nitrosoalkenes reacted with furan derivatives to form 4a,7a‐dihydro‐4H‐furo[2,3‐e][1,2]oxazines, which underwent DBU‐promoted rearrangements to 6H‐1,2 ...

Silent Partners in the Mill: Unveiling the Role of Additives in Mechanochemical Synthesis
Mechanochemistry offers a sustainable, solvent‐free alternative to traditional synthesis, often enhanced by additives in a process known as additive‐assisted grinding. This review discusses how various additives, including liquids, ionic solids, and advanced materials like ionic liquids and piezoelectric compounds, improve reaction efficiency ...
