Acute Esophageal Necrosis Secondary to Cyanotic Spells Associated with Unrepaired Tetralogy of Fallot.

Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease. Cyanotic spells occur more frequently after infancy in unrepaired cases. Acute esophageal necrosis (AEN) is a rare disease that causes circumferential mucosal necrosis in the distal esophagus.

Chlorine-Substituted 9,10-Dihydro-9-aza-10-boraanthracene as a Precursor for Various Boron- and Nitrogen-Containing π-Conjugated Compounds.

Chlorine-substituted 9,10-dihydro-9-aza-10-boraanthracene was synthesized. Derivatization of this compound by taking advantage of the transformable B-Cl moiety gave 9,10-dihydro-9-aza-10-boraanthracene derivatives with various aryl substituents. In addition, further functionalization on NH groups by alkylation and Buchwald-Hartwig amination was demonstrated.
