The one-carbon elongation of aldoses to ketoses using iodomethyllithium as the key reagent in the homologation step is exemplified by the preparation of two carbohydrates of chemical and biological interests: d-manno-hept-2-ulose from d-mannose and l-fructose from l-arabinose.

N,N'-Diarylimidazolium salts containing haloalkyl functional groups that are reactive with various nucleophiles are considered to be promising reagents for the preparation of functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands, which are in demand in catalysis, materials science, and biomedical research. Recently, 4-chloromethyl-functionalized N,N'-diarylimidazolium salts became readily available via the condensation of N,N'-diaryl-2-methyl-1,4-diaza-1,3-butadienes with ethyl orthoformate and MeSiCl, but these compounds were found to have insufficient reactivity in reactions with many nucleophiles. These chloromethyl salts were studied as precursors in the synthesis of bromo- and iodomethyl-functionalized imidazolium salts by halide anion exchange.

Unlabelled: Primary: aldosteronism is a frequent cause of secondary hypertension. With access to specialized care, an increasing number of patients with aldosteronism are being identified. Primary aldosteronism is treatable by adrenal surgery if aldosterone excess originates from one of the two, and not from both, adrenals.

1,4-Bis(iodomethyl)benzene and 1,3,5-tris(iodomethyl)benzene were used as initiators for the cationic ring-opening polymerization (CROP) of 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline (EtOx) and its copolymerization with -butyl (3-(4,5-dihydrooxazol-2-yl)propyl)carbamate (BocOx) or methyl 3-(4,5-dihydrooxazol-2-yl)propanoate (MestOx). Kinetic studies confirmed the applicability of these initiators. Termination with suitable nucleophiles resulted in two- and three-armed cross-linkers featuring acrylate, methacrylate, piperazine-acrylamide, and piperazine-methacrylamide as polymerizable ω-end groups.

Context: Patients with obesity have an overactivated renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) that is associated with essential hypertension. However, the influence of obesity in primary aldosteronism (PA) is unknown.

Objective: We analyzed the effect of obesity on the characteristics of PA, and the association between obesity and RAAS components.

One novel tri-substituted tetrahydropyran type 8,7'-neolignan and its enantiomer with higher enantiomeric excess were synthesized from all -tetra-substituted tetrahydrofuran with an iodomethyl group by a hydride or H ring-expansion reaction. The normal hydride reductions of C-I bonds of tetra-substituted tetrahydrofurans bearing iodomethyl groups were observed in other 2,3-s-stereoisomers of tetra-substituted tetrahydrofurans to give tetra-substituted tetrahydrofurans bearing 7,8- and 8,7'-neolignan structures. The phytotoxicities of their synthesized compounds were compared with previously synthesized 7,8--8,7'-neolignans bearing tetra-substituted tetrahydrofurans to find out the highest phytotoxic tri-substituted tetrahydropyran type 8,7'-neolignan.
