Tailoring Regioselectivity‐Controlled UDP‐Glycosyltransferase for Bidirectional Glycosylation of Tyrosol via Free Energy‐Driven Pocket Reshaping and Tunnel Engineering [PDF]
UDP‐glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are pivotal biocatalysts for synthesizing pharmaceutically valuable active components; however, their application is frequently constrained by poor regioselectivity and suboptimal catalytic efficiency.

Understanding a substrate's product regioselectivity in a family of enzymes: a case study of acetaminophen binding in cytochrome P450s. [PDF]
Product regioselectivity as influenced by molecular recognition is a key aspect of enzyme catalysis. We applied large-scale two-dimensional (2D) umbrella sampling (USP) simulations to characterize acetaminophen (APAP) binding in the active sites of the ...

Regioselectivity of conjugate additions to monoalkyl-1,4-benzoquinones [PDF]
The regioselectivity of the reaction of conjugate addition of thiols amines, methanol and hydrogen chloride with the monoalkyl-1,4-benzoquinones avarone and 2-tert-butyl- 1,4-benzoquinone was investigated.

Regioselective conversion of epoxides to β-acetoxy alcohols catalyzed by a novel green and recyclable phase transfer catalyst [PDF]
A new mild and efficient procedure for the ring opening of epoxides by acetate anion in the presence of catalytic amounts of silica-bound polyethylene glycol substituted 1-methylimidazolium bromide, SiO2-PEG-ImBr, as an effective heterogeneous phase ...

Iron-Catalyzed, Highly Regioselective Synthesis of alpha-Aryl Carboxylic Acids from Styrene Derivatives and CO2 [PDF]
The iron-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation of aryl alkenes has been developed using a highly active bench-stable iron(II) precatalyst to give alpha-aryl carboxylic acids in excellent yields and with near-perfect regioselectivity. Using just 1 mol % FeCl2, bis(

Cycloadditions of cyclohexynes and cyclopentyne. [PDF]
We report the strategic use of cyclohexyne and the more elusive intermediate, cyclopentyne, as a tool for the synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds. Experimental and computational studies of a 3-substituted cyclohexyne are also described.
