The geometric structure of malonamide, NH2C(O)-CH2-C(O)NH2, has been investigated by gas electron diffraction (GED) and quantum chemical calculations (B3LYP and MP2 approximations with 6-311++G(3df,pd) basis sets). Both GED and quantum chemistry result in the existence of a single diketo conformer in the gas phase. According to GED refinement this conformer possesses (sc,ac) conformation with one C=O bond in synclinal orientation (dihedral angle tau(O=C-C-C)=49.0(3.0) degrees) and the other C=O bond in anticlinal orientation (dihedral angle tau(O=C-C-C)=139.5(3.3) degrees). The experimental geometric parameters are reproduced very closely by the B3LYP method.

The application of ,,','-tetraoctyl diglycolamide (TODGA) in solvent extraction systems for lanthanide (Ln) separations is well understood. In these systems, the formation of a third phase has motivated the use of phase modifiers to enable higher concentrations of H and Ln common to industrial processes. Several different phase modifiers with applications to diglycolamide (DGA) systems have previously been reported, with a focus on tri--butyl phosphate (TBP), ,'-dihexylactanamide (DHOA), -dioctyl-2-hydroxyacetamide (DOHyA), ,'-dimethyl-,'-dioctylhexylethoxy malonamide (DMDOHEMA), and octanol.

Novel chiral biaryl imidazo[1,5-]pyridine carbene-palladium complexes (ImPy-Pd) featuring an anagostic C-H···Pd interaction and a C5-aryl substituent have been developed and successfully applied to the Pd-catalyzed enantioselective desymmetric C-N cross-coupling of malonamide derivatives, providing chiral 3,4-dihydroquinoline-2-ones with quaternary stereocenters in high yields (≤99%) and enantioselectivities (≤97:3 er). The chiral catalyst exerts stereocontrol by restricting the rotation of substituents around the metal center through anagostic interactions with sterically bulky substituents.

Article Synopsis
- * A phase I clinical trial using the gamma-secretase inhibitor (GSI) crenigacestat alongside anti-BCMA CAR T-cells showed that GSI affected the tumor microenvironment, particularly altering monocyte populations and their gene expression.
- * The study also found that some patients had monoallelic deletion of the BCMA gene after previous treatments, which correlated with shorter progression-free survival, highlighting the need to investigate GSIs with BCMA-targeted therapies for better outcomes. *

Receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) has a crucial role in cell death and inflammation. A promising approach to develop novel inhibitors of RIPK1 mediated necroptosis is to mix the different binding modes of the known RIPK1 inhibitors into one molecule. Herein we report the synthesis and biological evaluation of novel mixed type inhibitors.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how the structure of a malonamide extractant in liquid-liquid extraction affects its water extraction performance, focusing on weak interactions that make structural identification difficult.
- Using small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), the researchers find no major changes in structure after water is introduced, indicating that water interacts with the extractant to form simple 1:1 adducts without significant reorganization of the solution.
- Findings suggest that the extraction mechanism remains consistent across various extractant concentrations, with the process being straightforward and driven by fundamental interactions rather than complex structural changes like micellization.
