The synthesis of 2‐methyl propellane and its conversion to various 1,2‐ and 1,2,3‐di‐ and trisubstituted bicyclopentanes is reported. Abstract Bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes (BCPs) have emerged as isosteric replacements for mono‐ and para‐substituted benzene rings in medicinal and materials applications, involving substitution at the BCP bridgehead (1,3 ...

A Hoveyda–Grubbs‐Type Olefin Metathesis Catalyst Bearing a Fluorinated Unsymmetrical NHC Ligand
A fluorinated unsymmetrical NHC ruthenium complex was synthesised and employed as a catalyst for olefin metathesis reactions. The modification of the steric and electronic properties of the NHC ligand through the introduction of fluorine substituents results in improved activity but lower selectivity compared to the analogous non‐fluorinated NHC ...

The lithium enediamide complex 2 with intrinsically inverted C–N bond polarity combines strong basicity with unusual reactivity: deprotonation of malonates enables C–C bond formation without electron transfer. Depending on malonate substitution, electrophilic substitution or addition occurs at the enediamide CC bond.

Synthetic Ligands of Myeloid C‐Type Lectin Receptors
Binding of ligands to C‐type lectin receptors (CLRs) on myeloid cells can lead to an array of cellular responses. Exploitation of these receptors for therapeutic purposes requires high‐affinity ligands. This review surveys the diversity of synthetic ligands of myeloid CLRs in the context of binding, signaling, and downstream effects, as well as ...
