Accessing difluorinated organic molecules via selective C-F bond activation in CF3-containing substrates has become a valuable synthetic pathway. The combination of lanthanide metals (lanthanum, dysprosium) with Lewis acids (AlCl3, LaI3) allows the efficient regio- and stereoselective transformation of CF3-benzofulvenes into a range of versatile difluoroalkenes proceeding via ε,ε-difluoropentadienyl lanthanide or aluminium species. The reaction of these organometallic intermediates towards ketones and nitroalkenes is herein reported and analyzed in relation to previous studies on aldehydes.

Materials And Methods: Ten patients were divided into two groups: Group 1: individuals with 2-wall defects, Group 2: those with 3-wall defects. Follow-up appointments at 1-, 3-, and 6-month intervals included assessments of clinical attachment level (CAL), probing depth (PD), and gingival recession (GR).
Background: Non-secretory multiple myeloma (NSMM) is defined as clonal bone marrow plasma cells ≥10% or biopsy proven plasmacytoma, evidence of end-organ damage due to underlying plasma cell dyscrasia, namely hypercalcemia, renal insufficiency, anaemia, bone lesions and lack of serum and urinary monoclonal protein on electrophoresis and immunofixation. They represent 3-5% of multiple myeloma (MM). With the advent of serum free light chain (s FLC) measurement, most of NSMMs have been classified as Light chain Multiple myeloma (LCMM).

Synthesized derivatives were evaluated for their antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) H37Rv.

Here, we outline the case of a chronic smoker in his 50s presenting with cough and blood-tinged sputum. Radiological assessment revealed a mass lesion in the left upper lobe.
