Metabolic profiling of praziquantel enantiomers
, 2014 Praziquantel (PZQ), prescribed as a racemic mixture, is the most readily available drug to treat schistosomiasis. In the present study, ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass ...

Chiral‐Encoded Pt‐Ir Surfaces as Apparent Spin Filter for Enhanced Oxygen Reduction
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The Chiral‐Induced Spin Selectivity (CISS) effect is employed in chiral‐encoded mesoporous Platinum‐Iridium (Pt‐Ir) electrocatalysts to enhance the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). A break in spin symmetry leads to a substantial antagonistic difference in activity (>200%) when comparing two enantiomorphs of the same electrode.

Predicting and Rationalizing Piezoelectricity in Racemic Bioorganic Molecular Crystals
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Racemic molecular crystals, composed of equal mixtures of chiral enantiomeric components, are predicted to exhibit significant piezoelectric responses and favourable mechanical flexibility. This study identifies organic and bioorganic racemates as promising candidates for sustainable, lead‐free materials, enabling next‐generation applications in energy

Disproportionation of enantiomers by precipitation [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 1974 The paper presents some experiments which were aimed at the demonstration of enrichment of enantiomer substances by precipitation from saturated racemic solutions. As a working hypothesis we searched for a possible very small “asymmetry effect” that might by observable during precipitation if the solubilities of enantiomer components were affected ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A single‐molecule cascade supramolecular system comprising L/D‐FPy, CB[8], and SC4AD serves as an efficient light‐harvesting platform. It facilitates cascade energy transfer and chiral transfer to acceptor dyes. Co‐assembly with a PVA matrix produces a multicolor solid film that exhibits enhanced luminescence dissymmetry factors (glum), enabling ...

Stereoselective Biotransformation: Transfer of Learning to Advance Drug Metabolism and Biocatalysis
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Understanding stereoselective biotransformations has implications for predicting drug disposition and response and may also inspire novel biocatalytic and biomimetic strategies to address challenges in metabolite and API synthesis. ABSTRACT Chirality is an important determinant of drug action, as enantiomers can exhibit markedly different ...

Chirality and anaesthetic drugs: A review and an update
Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2011 Many molecules can exist as right-handed and left-handed forms that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other. They are known as enantiomers or substances of opposite shape. Such compounds are also said to be chiral (Greek chiros meaning ′hand′).

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A catalytic network embedding a formal rearrangement enables the first catalytic enantioselective multicomponent reaction (MCR) of sulfur ylides. In the presence of a bulky chiral phosphoric acid, the reaction combines sulfoxonium ylides, aldehydes and thiols, and affords synthetically versatile β‐hydroxy‐α‐sulfanyl carbonyl compounds in ...
