[reaction: see text]. The nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction between electron-deficient aryl fluorides and aryl TBDMS (or TMS) ethers has been shown to be efficiently promoted by proazaphosphatranes such as P(i-BuNCH(2)CH(2))(3)N (3). Excellent yields of diaryl ether products were obtained under unusually mild conditions.

All-carbon quaternary and tertiary stereocenters connected at the C2-position of functionalizable C3-alkylated indole nucleus are commonly occurring frameworks found in many indole alkaloids of medicinal importance. Their direct access is scarcely reported, a long-standing problem, and developing a unique yet simple method can pave the pathway to an entirely different retrosynthetic route for the total synthesis of these alkaloids. Herein, this problem is addressed by developing an unprecedented branch-selective allylation strategy employing a broad range of structurally and electronically different 3-alkenyl-indoles and allylboronic acids.

To realize the robust anion exchange membrane (AEM)-based water splitting modules and fuel cells, the design and synthesis of tetraarylphosphonium (TAP) cations are described as a new class of cationic building blocks that exhibit remarkable alkaline stability under harsh conditions. TAP cations with highly sterically demanding aromatic substituents were efficiently synthesized from triarylphosphine derivatives and highly reactive arynes, whose alkaline degradation proved to be suppressed dramatically by the sterically demanding substituents. In the case of bis(2,5-dimethylphenyl)bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)phosphonium, for example, approximately 60% of the cation survived for 27 d under the forced conditions (i.

Cyclo(Pro-Val) is a diketopiperazine (DKP) found widespread in marine microbes and resulting food products. With new bioactivities of cyclo(Pro-Val) being continually discovered, its potential applications in agriculture and food are becoming more evident, highlighting the need for efficient and practical methods to produce these compounds. However, the biosynthesis mechanisms of cyclo(Pro-Val), particularly in probiotics, remain unclear, and the functional identification of nonribosomal peptide synthases (NRPS) is still limited.

The tumor suppressor p53 is frequently mutated in human cancers. The Y220C mutant is the ninth most common p53 cancer mutant and is classified as a structural mutant, as it leads to strong thermal destabilization and degradation by creating a solvent-accessible hydrophobic cleft. To identify small molecules that thermally stabilize p53, we employed DSF to screen SAr-type electrophiles from our covalent fragment library (CovLib) for binding to different structural (Y220C, R282W) and DNA contact (R273H) mutants of p53.

While -phenylenediamine antioxidants (PPDs) pose potential risks to aquatic ecosystems, their environmental persistence and transformation remain ambiguous due to the undefined nature of PPD C-N bond hydrolysis. Here, we investigated the hydrolysis patterns of PPDs by analyzing their hydrolysis half-lives, hydrolysis products around neutral pH (pH 6.0-7.
