The structure and stoichiometry of a new metal-free and ammonium-free compound [dabcoH]HOBr (where [dabcoH] = 1,4-di-aza-bicyclo-[2.2.2]octane dication) correspond to the general formula characteristic of perovskites.

On the basis of NMR studies carried out in an aqueous solution, it was found that in the samples obtained by methods and there were large excesses of β-CD in relation to KP, 10 and 75 times, respectively, while the sample obtained by method contained equimolar amounts of β-CD and KP. NMR results indicated that KP/β-CD inclusion complexes were formed and the estimated binding constants were approximately 2400 M, showing that KP is quite strongly associated with β-CD.

We discovered novel dual-binding cholinesterase inhibitors, using "clickable" fragments, which bind to either catalytic active site (CAS) or peripheral anionic site (PAS) of the enzyme.

Substituted arylpyridines are an important group of them. A regio- and atropselective Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction on 3,4,5-tribromo-2,6-dimethylpyridine was studied.
