Silver and platinum-catalysed addition of O–H and N–H bonds to allenes [PDF]
Transition-metal catalysed nucleophile addition to allenes is a very powerful tool for the synthesis of functionalised molecules containing heteroatoms, heterocycles in the intramolecular version, or allyl derivatives in the intermolecular version.

The origin of the unusual regioselectivity in the Mg‐catalyzed cyclization of azadiene‐type imines with cyclopropanes is elucidated by DFT calculations. Although five‐membered rings are typically favored, energy decomposition analysis reveals that severe steric congestion induces a highly distorted transition state, rendering the five‐membered pathway ...

Using EGA-GC to Analyze Nicotine N-oxide in Order to Explain Low Nicotine Concentrations in E-cigarette Liquids [PDF]
Evolved-gas analysis coupled with gas chromatography (EGA-GC) was used to analyze e-cigarette liquids. Previous analyses of e-cigarette liquids have shown that the determined concentration of nicotine is lower than the advertised concentration.

Synthesis of enantiomeric polyhydroxyalkylpyrrolidines from 1,3-dipolar cycloadducts. Evaluation as inhibitors of a β-galactofuranosidase [PDF]
Enantiomeric 2,3,4-tris(hydroxyalkyl)-5-phenylpyrrolidines have been synthesized from the major cycloadducts obtained by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of sugar enones with azomethine ylides derived from natural amino acids.

Monosubstituted N‐arylhydroxylamines represent a unique subclass of hydroxylamines that act as pivotal intermediates in redox transformations and as versatile platforms for further synthetic transformations. They serve as key building blocks in the synthesis of architecturally complex heterocycles and other valuable organic compounds.

This review highlights biocatalytic prenylation as a versatile strategy for tailoring the functional properties of peptides and proteins. By comparing branched isoprenoids with linear lipids, we illustrate how specific prenyl architectures modulate the behaviors of lipidated proteins within membrane environments.
