The utilization of Pd(ii)-catalyzed oxidation for the transformation of terminal olefins into methyl ketones has emerged as a particularly intriguing and versatile strategy in organic synthesis. Herein we report a novel Pd(ii)-catalyzed Wacker-type oxidation with covalent bidentate ligands. The ligand, 1-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2-dihydro-3-indazol-3-one, exhibits excellent performance in converting olefins to ketones.

Article Synopsis
- - The oral cavity hosts a variety of microorganisms, and some harmful bacteria can lead to issues like bad breath, gum disease, and cavities; probiotics might help improve oral health by modifying the microbiota.
- - A study tested various probiotics (ZK-77, ZK-88, ZK-102) for their ability to inhibit harmful bacteria and biofilm formation, as well as their effectiveness in reducing compounds that cause bad breath and inflammation.
- - Probiotic combinations, particularly ZK-88 with fructooligosaccharides, showed promise in improving oral health outcomes such as bad breath and teeth appearance in both rats and cats, while demonstrating safety through genetic testing and animal studies.
