A study of crystallographic complexes obtained from vanadium haloperoxidase enzymes can determine key amino acids, leucine, and phenylalanine, that change their structural orientation to allow either chloride or bromide to bind to the enzymes active site, thereby determining halide specificity.

The challenge of recycling heterogeneous catalysts and reusing them in different reactions was addressed. To this end, salen complexes were anchored on methacrylate insoluble polymers obtained using the Cu(0)‐mediated RDRP method. Their reactivity and recyclability were analyzed in asymmetric ring opening and dynamic kinetic resolution of epoxides ...

Substrate Adaptability Enabled by Remote Noncovalent Interactions: How Far Are We?
Harnessing attractive noncovalent interactions (NCIs) between substrates and catalysts has emerged as an effective strategy in homogeneous catalysis. The long‐range nature and conformational flexibility of NCIs enable catalysts to adapt to structural changes in substrates, while maintaining remote control over selectivity.

The activation of electron poor allenes with Lewis base catalysts allows for unique transformations and chiral isochalcogenoureas were recently introduced as powerful catalysts for allenoate‐based (4+2)‐cycloadditions. We herein now report the use of these catalysts for the activation and control of allenylsulfones and propargylsulfones for asymmetric (

Merging Peptide and Enzyme Catalysis in a Single Protein Domain Bearing Two Separated Active Sites
A dual‐functional catalyst that unites peptide catalysis and biocatalysis within a single protein scaffold at two distinct active sites offers a promising strategy for cascade catalysis. This hybrid catalyst enabled here a one‐pot transformation of alcohols to C─C coupled products via enamine activation, revealing challenges such as mismatched reaction
