Total Synthesis of Resveratrone and iso‐Resveratrone
The first total synthesis of resveratrone and iso‐resveratrone based on an epoxide olefination approach is described. The pivotal reaction proceeds by insertion of the lithiated epoxide into a boronic ester and subsequent syn‐elimination.

2,6-exo-8,10-exo-4-Butyl-9-oxa-4-azatetracyclo[5.3.1.02,6.08,10]undecane-3,5-dione
The title epoxide was obtained by spontaneous epoxidation of the corresponding unsaturated imide in air or by peracid oxidation. Unambiguous assignment of the 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra is achieved by comparison between analogous compounds and its X-ray ...

CF3-Bis-TEMPO-Vis: New Visible Light Active Bis-Benzimidazolequinone Alkoxyamine
Alkoxyamines of TEMPO usually dissociate thermally at >100 °C; however, room temperature homolysis, activated by visible light, occurs with benzimidazolequinone derivatives.

Insights into the function of silver as an oxidation catalyst by ab initio, atomistic thermodynamics [PDF]
To help understand the high activity of silver as an oxidation catalyst, e.g., for the oxidation of ethylene to epoxide and the dehydrogenation of methanol to formaldehyde, the interaction and stability of oxygen species at the Ag(111) surface has been studied for a wide range of coverages.

The stability of 3 transmembrane and 4 transmembrane human vitamin K epoxide reductase models [PDF]
3 transmembrane and 4 transmembrane helices models are suggested for the human vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKOR). In this study, we investigate the stability of the human 3 transmembrane/4 transmembrane VKOR models employing a coarse-grained normal mode analysis and molecular dynamics simulation.

Why is a noble metal catalytically active? The role of the O-Ag interaction in the function of silver as an oxidation catalyst [PDF]
Extensive density-functional theory calculations, and taking into account temperature and pressure, affords a comprehensive picture of the behavior and interaction of oxygen and Ag(111), and provides valuable insight into the function of silver as an oxidation catalyst.

Catalytic Annulation of Epoxides with Heterocumulenes by the Indium-Tin System
In the synthesis of five-membered heterocycles by the annulation of epoxides with heterocumulenes such as carbon dioxide and isocyanates, we developed the indium-tin catalytic system and synthesized various cyclic adducts including novel types products ...

Epoxides and Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase in Cardiovascular Physiology [PDF]
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are arachidonic acid metabolites that importantly contribute to vascular and cardiac physiology. The contribution of EETs to vascular and cardiac function is further influenced by soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) that degrades EETs to diols. Vascular actions of EETs include dilation and angiogenesis.
