Article Synopsis
  • * The study introduces a new method for radical reactions using photoredox techniques which enhances the Pummerer-type reaction through single-electron oxidation of sulfides to create reactive thio radicals.
  • * This innovative approach opens up new possibilities for creating highly functionalized sulfur compounds, such as modifying methionine in peptides, and could revolutionize C-C bond formation that was previously limited by traditional methods.

The serotonin 5-HT receptors are important pharmaceutical targets involved in signaling pathways underlying various neurological, psychiatric, and cardiac functions and dysfunctions. As such, numerous ligands for the investigation of these receptors' activity and downstream effects have been developed synthetically or discovered in nature. For example, the heteroyohimbine natural product alstonine exhibits antispychotic activity mediated by 5-HT agonism.
