Biosynthesis and Genetic Tuning of Guanine Crystals via Metabolic Engineering of Yeast
We demonstrate how yeast cells can be harnessed as cellular factories for the synthesis of optically functional guanine crystals, where genetic editing is used to tune crystal size, order and optical properties. This demonstrates a powerful new biosynthetic approach for the development of sustainable and biocompatible optical pigments, which utilizes ...

Synthesis of bridgehead nitrogen heterocycles
Reductive cyclizations of N ‐[2‐(2‐pyridyl)ethyl]imides were accomplished by employing a palladium on carbon catalyst in ethanolic acetic acid as the hydrogenation medium.

Flavin Catalysts in Organic Synthesis
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.

The use of 1,1,3,3‐tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDSO) and potassium tert‐butoxide enables direct alkylation of weakly acidic carbon–hydrogen bonds with alkyl halides. Experimental and computational studies support the formation of a substrate‐associated hydride‐like base, providing a single‐step alternative to the classical deprotonation and electrophile ...
