Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.We report on the photophysical properties and electronic relaxation mechanisms of 4‐dimethylaminophthalimide (DMAP) and thio‐4‐dimethylaminophthalimide (SDMAP). While DMAP is fluorescent, SDMAP shows negligible fluorescence due to ultrafast intersystem crossing to a long‐lived triplet state that decays in 3.4 ± 0.05 µs.

Flipping the Card With Enantiodivergent Organocatalysis
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.This minireview elaborates on recent organocatalytic strategies for achieving enantiodivergence—the ability to access both product enantiomers using a single chiral catalyst. It highlights how achiral stimuli, such as solvent polarity and chemical additives, along with minimal catalyst modifications, trigger stereochemical inversions in reactions ...

Repurposing Drugs for Malaria through a Human Dose Prediction: A Case Study with Berzosertib
Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Repurposing drugs whose clinical safety has been established offers a valuable approach to reduce the cost and time associated with the development of new drugs for malaria. Here, we investigate the potential to repurpose the anticancer kinase inhibitor berzosertib for the treatment of malaria, by assessing whether a predicted efficacious human dose ...
