Fused nitrogen‐bridgehead N,O‐acetals receive specific emphasis as pivotal scaffolds due to their significant role in the bioactivity of medicinally relevant molecules. Significant approaches have been reported on their role as key synthetic building blocks/motifs in the construction of complex organic molecules and their utility as chiral auxiliaries ...

Pharmacokinetics of cathinone, cathine and norephedrine after the chewing of khat leaves [PDF]
Aim The stimulating herbal drug khat is habitually used in East Africa and the Arabian peninsula but is also imported into other countries. The aim was to study the pharmacokinetics of its alkaloids cathinone, cathine and norephedrine.Methods Four volunteers chewed khat leaves in an amount equivalent to one‐quarter of that used in a typical khat ...

ABSTRACT The synthesis of enantiopure α‐hydroxy ketones, particularly R‐ and S‐phenylacetylcarbinol (PAC), represents an important process in the pharmaceutical industry, serving as a pivotal step in the production of drugs. Recently, two novel enzymes, ephedrine dehydrogenase (EDH) and pseudoephedrine dehydrogenase (PseDH), have been described.

Two‐Step Biocatalytic Synthesis of (1S)‐Nor(pseudo)ephedrine Catalyzed by Immobilized Enzymes
A biocatalytic cascade was designed for the synthesis of (1S,2S)‐norpseudoephedrine [(1S,2S)‐NPE] and (1S,2R)‐norephedrine [(1S,2R)‐NE], involving a benzoin‐type condensation catalyzed by (S)‐selective acetoin:dichlorophenolindophenol oxidoreductase (Ao : DCPIP OR), followed by a transamination mediated by (S)‐ or (R)‐selective amine transaminase (ATA).

Golden Guardians: Advanced pH Sensors with Built‐in Antimicrobial Defense
Ultrasmall norephedrine‐capped gold nanoclusters (Au@Nore) exhibit high photoluminescence (ΦPL of up to 33%) reversible ratiometric pH sensing and pH‐dependent antimicrobial activity. They enabled us to evaluate the pH sensing and their biological effect on bacteria and yeast. Abstract Gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) capped with a small biomolecule, namely (
