Pharmaceuticals Made with Hydrogen: A Sustainable and Efficient Approach Using Flow Synthesis
We demonstrate a sustainable strategy for pharmaceutical manufacturing by combining hydrogen, heterogeneous catalysis, and continuous flow synthesis. The development of novel catalysts and their application in a multi‐step synthesis of donepezil enabled a highly productive process with no intermediate purification.

Abstract Large clinical data underscore that heart failure is independently associated to an increased risk of negative cognitive outcome and dementia. Emerging evidence suggests that cerebral hypoperfusion, stemming from reduced cardiac output and vascular pathology, may contribute to the largely overlapping vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease ...

Potential of solid‐state microwaves in lab‐scale chemical‐process development
Abstract BACKGROUND The integration of a solid‐state microwave (MW) generator into a newly designed, versatile MW reactor ensures improved energy efficiency, precise process control and broader application potential. In its most particular feature, the device supports the modification of dielectric‐radiation orientation and can be operated under ...

Neuroprotective effects of donepezil against Aβ25-35-induced neurotoxicity
Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the neuroprotective effect of donepezil against β-amyloid25-35 (Aβ25-35)-induced neurotoxicity and the possible mechanism. Methods PC12 cells were conventionally cultured. Serial concentrations of Aβ25-
