Current State of Community-Driven Radiological AI Deployment in Medical Imaging.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become commonplace in solving routine everyday tasks. Because of the exponential growth in medical imaging data volume and complexity, the workload on radiologists is steadily increasing. AI has been shown to improve efficiency in medical image generation, processing, and interpretation, and various such AI models have been developed across research laboratories worldwide.

Total Synthesis and Revision of Stereochemistry of a Natural Benzo[]isochromene Stereodiad Isolated from .

This study presents a total synthesis and revision of the stereochemical configuration of the conformationally flexible natural product benzo[]isochromene stereodiad alongside its diastereomeric counterparts. The highlights of the synthesis are the TiCl-mediated diastereoselective aldol reaction, Pd-catalyzed lactonization, and Schmidt glycosidation. Our efforts using total synthesis disclosed herein proved that a previously assigned structure required revision.

Comprehensive Study on Solomonamides: Total Synthesis, Stereochemical Revision, and SAR Studies toward Identification of Simplified Lead.

Solomonamides, a pair of macrocyclic peptide natural products originating from marine sources, have garnered significant attention within the synthetic community owing to their marked anti-inflammatory efficacy and intricate molecular architectures. In this paper, we present a very detailed investigation into solomonamides, including the challenges associated with the total synthesis, the evolution of our synthetic strategies, structural reassignment, synthesis of all possible stereoisomeric macrocycles, biological assessment, structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies, etc. Within the ambit of this total synthesis, diverse strategies for macrocyclization were rigorously explored, encompassing the Friedel-Crafts acylation, cyclization involving the aniline NH moiety, macrolactamization utilizing Gly-NH, and Heck macrocyclization methodologies.

Total Synthesis and Absolute Configuration Determination of the α-Glycosidase Inhibitor (3,4)-6-Acetyl-3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylchroman-4-yl ()-2-Methylbut-2-enoate from .

Herein, we report the first total synthesis of α-glycosidase inhibitor (3, 4)-6-acetyl-3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylchroman-4-yl ()-2-methylbut-2-enoate as well as its enantiomer. Our synthesis confirms the chromane structure separately proposed by Navarro-Vazquez and Mata, on the basis of DFT computations. Furthermore, our synthesis allowed us to determine the absolute configuration of the natural compound as (3, 4) and not (3, 4).

Kupyaphores are zinc homeostatic metallophores required for colonization of .

() endures a combination of metal scarcity and toxicity throughout the human infection cycle, contributing to complex clinical manifestations. Pathogens counteract this paradoxical dysmetallostasis by producing specialized metal trafficking systems. Capture of extracellular metal by siderophores is a widely accepted mode of iron acquisition, and iron-chelating siderophores, mycobactin, have been known since 1965.

Ready Access to Densely Substituted Furans Using Tsuji-Wacker-Type Cyclization.

A competent method for the construction of highly substituted furans catalyzed by Pd(II) and Cu(II) chloride has been developed. The method provides easy access to di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted furans from corresponding diols with relatively mild conditions in a unified strategy. The developed method has been successfully tested with more than 25 substrates, which resulted in furans of multiple substitution patterns with up to 84% isolated yields.

Access to a Stereoisomer Library of Solomonamide Macrocycles.

In an attempt towards understanding stereo-structure activity relationships (SSARs), we have prepared eight possible stereoisomers of solomonamide macrocycles, in particular, by changing the stereochemical pattern of non-peptide fragment AHMOA. Here, we have demonstrated different ways to construct three contiguous chiral centers present in solomonamide B macrocycle using substrate/reagent-controlled methods. These methods involve Brown crotylation, NHK reaction and Evans aldol addition as key steps to synthesize key non-peptide fragment.

Effective removal of sulfur components from Brazilian power-coals by ultrasonication (40kHz) in presence of H2O2.
