Does Substrate Positioning Affect the Selectivity and Reactivity in the Hectochlorin Biosynthesis Halogenase?

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2018
In this work we present the first computational study on the hectochlorin biosynthesis enzyme HctB, which is a unique three-domain halogenase that activates non-amino acid moieties tethered to an acyl-carrier, and as such may have biotechnological ...

A Wagner–Meerwein‐Like Rearrangement Generates a Vinyl Group in the Biosynthesis of the Polychlorinated Lipopeptides Fischerazoles

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The fischerazoles, unusual cyanobacterial chlorinated lipopeptides are reported. During their biosynthesis, a linear fatty acyl‐acyl carrier protein (ACP) precursor is rearranged through the action of the S‐adenosyl‐methionine (SAM)‐dependent methyltransferase FshF, to generate a pendant vinyl group.

Halogenation effect on physicochemical properties of Ti3C2 MXenes

open access: yesJPhys Materials, 2023
Halogenated MXenes have been experimentally demonstrated to be promising two-dimensional materials for a wide range of applicability. However, their physicochemical properties are largely unknown at the atomic level.

Flavin Catalysts in Organic Synthesis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Flavins and their congeners are potent catalysts for organic synthesis inspired by enzymatic transformations. In addition to catalysis in the flavin ground state via covalent intermediates, the excited singlet and triplet states unlock applications including photooxidation, photoreduction, and energy transfer via sensitization.

T‐Shaped Stibenium(III) Cation: Hydrostibination Without Sb─H Bond

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A cationic, structurally constrained stibenium platform mediates anti‐Markovnikov hydrostibination of alkenes via element–ligand cooperativity (ELC), thereby bypassing the need for weak Sb─H bonds. ABSTRACT The hydrostibination of alkenes represents a largely underdeveloped transformation, owing to the intrinsic lability of the required Sb─H reagents ...

Borylcyclopropanes: Synthetic Strategies and Applications

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Borylcyclopropanes (cyclopropanes bearing a boron substituent) sit at the intersection of two privileged frameworks in synthesis. This review provides the first exhaustive survey of their chemistry, spanning metal–carbene, nucleophilic cyclization, radical, hydroboration, and C─H activation routes, and documenting applications in medicinal chemistry ...

Azobenzene's Cross‐Scale Optics and Photonics: Molecular Photoswitching, Mesoscopic Material Motions, and Adaptive Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

Two-Component FAD-Dependent Monooxygenases: Current Knowledge and Biotechnological Opportunities

open access: yesBiology, 2018
Flavoprotein monooxygenases create valuable compounds that are of high interest for the chemical, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical industries, among others. Monooxygenases that use flavin as cofactor are either single- or two-component systems.
