A mild, general, and efficient method for the synthesis of 2-monosubstituted and 2,5-disubstituted furans via the CuI-catalyzed cycloisomerization of alkynyl ketones was developed. It was demonstrated that furans containing both acid- and base-labile groups could be easily synthesized using this methodology. A plausible mechanism for this transformation is proposed.

Cost-effectiveness analysis of eribulin versus dacarbazine in patients with advanced liposarcoma.
Sci Rep
January 2025
School of Pharmacy, Hangzhou Normal University, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.
A subgroup analysis of a randomized study demonstrated that patients with advanced or metastatic liposarcoma treated with eribulin had longer overall survival and progression-free survival compared to those treated with dacarbazine, suggesting eribulin as a therapeutic option for advanced liposarcoma. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of eribulin versus dacarbazine in the treatment of advanced liposarcoma. We established a 10-year Markov model to compare the cost-effectiveness of eribulin and dacarbazine regimens.

The biomass-derived furan aldehydes furfural (FF) and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) are versatile platform chemicals used to produce various value-added chemicals through further valorization processes. Selectively reducing C═O in FF and HMF molecules to form furfuryl alcohol (FAL) and 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (BHMF), represents an important research field in upgrading biomass-based furan compounds. Currently, the reduction of furan aldehydes to furan alcohols through chemical transformation often leads to unavoidable environmental issues and the formation of potential byproducts.

(±)-Melichuniiones A and B (1 and 2), two novel enantiomeric pairs of lignan-phloroglucinol hybrids with an unprecedented beadlike core were isolated from the leaves of , together with new analogues 3-6. Compounds 1 and 2 possess a unique dispiro [furan-2,5'-cyclopenta[]furan-2',3''-furan] 5/5/5/5 tetracyclic skeleton. Their structures were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations.

Ligustilide, a phthalide compound extracted from Umbelliferae plants such as Angelica sinensis and Ligusticum chuanxiong, has been proven to possess various pharmacological activities, such as anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, anti-atherosclerosis, anti-ischemic stroke injury, and anti-Alzheimer's disease properties. In recent years, it has shown great potential, particularly in the treatment of locomotor system diseases. Studies have shown that ligustilide has significant therapeutic effects on various locomotor system diseases, including osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, femoral head necrosis, osteosarcoma, and muscle aging and injury.

Conjugated polymers have attracted extensive attention as semiconducting materials in wearable and flexible electronics. In this study, we utilize atom-economical Knoevenagel reaction to construct two conjugated polymers, PTDPP-CNTT and PFDPP-CNTT, based on dialdehyde-thiophene/furan-flanked diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) and 2,2'-(thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-2,5-diyl)diacetonitrile (CNTT). The resulting polymers exhibited suitable highest occupied molecular orbital/lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO/LUMO) energy levels, small bandgaps, and broad UV-vis-NIR absorptions (≈400-1000 nm), endowing them with photothermal and balanced ambipolar semiconducting properties with hole and electron mobilities over 10 cmVs.
