A Three-Step Route to Functionalized Pyrrole-2,5-Dicarboxylic Acids from Galactaric Acid. [PDF]
Galactaric acid (GalA) has been used as substrate for a library of N‐substituted pyrrole‐2,5‐dicarboxylic acids (PDCAs). Existing routes to N‐substituted PDCAs require many steps or lack product isolation. We present a simple, scalable three‐step synthesis from GalA via a 2‐pyrone salt, giving isolated PDCA derivatives in high yield without ...

Engineering 2-Pyrone-4,6-Dicarboxylic Acid Production Reveals Metabolic Plasticity of Poplar. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Woody biomass is a promising source of fermentable sugars for biofuels and bio‐based chemicals, but its industrial use is limited by the costly biorefinery process. A viable strategy to reduce costs involves enhancing both biomass processability and the generation of high‐value co‐products.

Total synthesis of aurofusarin: studies on the atropisomeric stability of bis-naphthoquinones [PDF]
An efficient annulation involving pyrone addition to a quinone and Dieckmann condensation was developed for rapid assembly of a γ-naphthopyrone monomeric precursor to the bis-naphthoquinone natural product aurofusarin.

Synthesis and characterization of nickel(II) maltolate complexes containing ancillary bisphosphine ligands [PDF]
Cationic nickel(II) complexes containing chelating O,O'-donor maltolate or ethyl maltolate ligands in conjunction with bidentate bisphosphine ligands Ph₂P(CH₂)nPPh₂ were prepared by a one-pot reaction starting from nickel(II) acetate, bisphosphine ...

Arzanol, a prenylated heterodimeric phloroglucinyl pyrone, inhibits eicosanoid biosynthesis and exhibits anti-inflammatory efficacy in vivo. [PDF]
Based on its capacity to inhibit in vitro HIV-1 replication in T cells and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in monocytes, the prenylated heterodimeric phloroglucinyl α-pyrone arzanol was identified as the major anti-inflammatory and anti-viral ...
