Design and Synthesis of Helical N-Terminal l-Prolyl Oligopeptides Possessing Hydrocarbon Stapling
We designed and synthesized helical short oligopeptides with an l-proline on the N-terminus and hydrocarbon stapling on the side chain. Side-chain stapling is a frequently used method for the development of biologically active peptides.

Thiosemicarbazone organocatalysis:Tetrahydropyranylation and 2-deoxygalactosylation reactions and kinetics-based mechanistic investigation [PDF]
Thiosemicarbazones are introduced as a new class of highly tunable and efficient organocatalysts. We showcase this by studies of the tetrahydropyranylation reaction, where insights to the mechanism was achieved by a double Hammett analysis of both the ...

Solvent-dependent enantioswitching in the Michael addition of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes to maleimides organocatalyzed by mono-N-Boc-protected cyclohexa-1,2-diamines [PDF]
Enantiomerically pure mono-N-Boc-protected trans-cyclohexa-1,2-diamines are used as organocatalysts for the enantioselective conjugate addition of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes to maleimides.

The effects of interactions between proline and carbon nanostructures on organocatalysis in the Hajos-Parrish-Eder-Sauer-Wiechert reaction [PDF]
The non-covalent interactions of S-(-)-proline with the surfaces of carbon nanostructures (fullerene, nanotubes and graphite) change the nucleophilic-electrophilic and acid-base properties of the amino acid, thus tuning its activity and selectivity in ...

Enantioselective Synthesis of Succinimides by Michael Addition of Aldehydes to Maleimides Organocatalyzed by Chiral Primary Amine-Guanidines [PDF]
The monoguanylation of (1S,2S)- and (1R,2R)-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine affords chiral primary amine-guanidines that are used as chiral organocatalysts in the enantioselective Michael addition of aldehydes, particularly α,α-disubstituted aldehydes, to ...
