Article Synopsis
  • Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are complex organic molecules with multiple interconnected aromatic rings, commonly found in space.
  • Researchers discovered 1-cyanopyrene, a specific type of PAH derived from pyrene, in the dense cloud TMC-1 using the Green Bank Telescope.
  • The findings imply that PAHs, particularly pyrene, play a significant role in contributing carbon to young planetary systems, suggesting they originate from cold molecular clouds.

Copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) chemistry is reported for the construction of previously unknown 5-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-4,5'-bithiazoles from 2-bromo-1-(thiazol-5-yl)ethanones. These novel triazolobithiazoles are shown to have cystic fibrosis (CF) corrector activity and, compared to the benchmark bithiazole CF corrector corr-4a, improved logP values (4.5 vs 5.
