The treatment of various aromatic and aliphatic aldimines with a mixture of a terminal alkyne and a commercially available dimethylzinc solution in toluene yields the corresponding protected propargylic amines in moderate to excellent yields. The reaction proceeds in the absence of any activator. These observations led to the development of a three-component synthesis of propargylic amines in which the product was obtained upon mixing an aldehyde with ortho-methoxyaniline and phenylacetylene in the presence of dimethylzinc, through in situ formation of the corresponding imine.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and its subsequent catalytic fixation into usable compounds represent a potential approach for addressing the energy problem and the implications of global warming. Hence, it is necessary to develop effective catalytic systems required for the transformation of CO2 into valuable chemicals/fuels. Herein, we rationally designed a hydroxyl-functionalized porous organic framework (OH-POF) consisting of both acidic (OH) as well as basic N sites for the transformation of CO2 using epoxides for the production of cyclic carbonates (CCs), a useful commodity chemical under environmental-friendly, metal/solvent/co-catalyst-free conditions.

Monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) is a key enzyme in the mitochondrial outer membrane, pivotal for the oxidative deamination of biogenic amines. Its overexpression has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several cancers, including glioblastoma and colorectal, lung, renal, and bladder cancers, primarily through the increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Inhibition of MAO-B impedes cell proliferation, making it a potential therapeutic target.

A facile copper-catalyzed, base-controlled cyclization reaction has been developed for the synthesis of 9-membered cycloalkyne and 6-membered heterocycle sultams under mild conditions. This protocol utilizes a copper-catalyzed intramolecular A (alkyne-aldehyde-amine) coupling reaction to efficiently synthesize 9-membered cycloalkyne sultams in yields up to 90%. Alternatively, by substituting NaHCO with DBU, the protocol achieves selective deprotection of the -propargyl group, thereby facilitating the formation of 6-membered heterocyclic sultams, also in high yields.

Two novel Pd-catalyzed protocols for the controllable synthesis of benzo[]furo[2,3-]azepines and furo[3,2-]indoles have been developed by intermolecular oxidative annulation of 2-(furan-2-yl)anilines and propargyl carbonates versus intramolecular C-H amination reactions. These two protocols feature great scalability, functional group tolerance, and relatively mild reaction conditions. Notably, the robust methodologies could also provide valuable opportunities for assembling azepine-fused benzothiophene, indole-fused benzothiophene, and indole-fused benzimidazole, which may have potential applications in the synthesis of related pharmaceuticals or polymeric materials.

Protein footprinting is a useful method for studying protein higher order structure and conformational changes induced by interactions with various ligands via addition of covalent modifications onto the protein. Compared to other methods that provide single amino acid-level structural resolution, such as cryo-EM, X-ray diffraction, and NMR, mass spectrometry (MS)-based methods can be advantageous as they require lower protein amounts and purity. As with other MS-based proteomic methods, such as post-translational modification analysis, enrichment techniques have proven necessary for both optimal sensitivity and sequence coverage when analyzing highly complex proteomes.
