Sedaxane, Isopyrazam and Solatenol™: Novel Broad-spectrum Fungicides Inhibiting Succinate Dehydrogenase (SDH) - Synthesis Challenges and Biological Aspects.

Sedaxane (SDX) 1, isopyrazam (IZM) 2 and Solatenol™ (STL) 3 are broad-spectrum pyrazole carboxamides, which originate from novel chemical classes of fungicides. Their mode of action (MoA) is inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), which was recognized for a long time to deliver only compounds with a narrow biological spectrum. This view changed with the market introduction of BASF's boscalid in 2003.

[The training concept of laparoscopic surgery in post-graduate education of doctors].

The active use of virtual devices and laparoscopic boxes for the control of the achieved skills level are the general idea of the suggested concept of the laparoscopic surgical training. The in vivo training make sense only after finishing the "virtual" course. The complete realization of these new concept of laparoscopic surgery training is possible only in frames of the endoscopic surgery department of the mighty hospital center.

Transition-state stabilization by a secondary substrate-ligand interaction: a new design principle for highly efficient transition-metal catalysis.

A library of monodentate phosphane ligands, each bearing a guanidine receptor unit for carboxylates, was designed. Screening of the library gave some excellent catalysts for regioselective hydroformylation of beta,gamma-unsaturated carboxylic acids. A terminal alkene, but-3-enoic acid, was hydroformylated with a linear/branched (l/b) regioselectivity up to 41.

Ruthenium catalyzed decarbonylative arylation at sp3 carbon centers in pyrrolidine and piperidine heterocycles.

This paper describes the development of a new catalytic transformation, the ruthenium-catalyzed decarbonylative arylation of cyclic 2-amino esters, which replaces the ester group with an aryl ring at the sp3 carbon center. For example, proline ester amidine 1 is converted to 2-arylpyrrolidine 3 in the presence of arylboronic acids or esters as arene donors and Ru(3)(CO)(12) as the catalyst. This process provides a rapid access to a variety of 2-arylpyrrolidines and piperidines from commercially available proline, hydroxyproline, and pipecolinate esters.
