The deactivation pathways of Jørgensen-Hayashi-type organocatalysts modified with an ionic liquid fragment in asymmetric Michael reactions of α,β-enals with C- (nitromethane, dimethylmalonate) or N-nucleophiles (N-carbobenzyloxyhydroxylamine) that involved an iminium-ion formation step were studied for the first time by the electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). "Parasitic" side reactions and undesirable cation intermediates that poisoned the catalysts were identified in accordance with their m/z values as well as their relation to the reported mechanisms of Michael reactions in the presence of O-TMS-α,α-diarylprolinol (TMS=trimethylsilyl) derivatives. The proposed approach may be useful for the study of transformations of other types of organocatalysts modified with ionic groups in various organocatalytic reactions and for the development of novel robust catalysts and processes that would be suitable for large-scale industrial applications.

The problem of antibiotic abuse and drug resistance is becoming increasingly serious. In recent years, polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles have been recognized as a potential antimicrobial material for photothermal therapy (PTT) due to their excellent photothermal conversion efficiency and unique antimicrobial ability. PDA is capable of rapidly converting light energy into heat energy under near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation to kill bacteria efficiently.

The range of chemical databases available has dramatically increased in recent years, but the reliability and quality of their data are often negatively affected by human-error fidelity. The size of chemical databases can make manual data curation/checking of such sets time consuming; thus, automated tools to help this process are highly desirable. Herein, we propose the use of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to identifying potential stereochemical misassignments in the primary asymmetric catalysis literature.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of heart failure and death in cardiovascular diseases. Most drug trials currently fail due to inadequate local drug activity and side effects. In this study, we developed a novel polydopamine (PDA) nano delivery system that carries sodium ferulate (SF) and is modified with RGD peptides (SF/RGD-PDA NPs) for precise targeted delivery.

Organocatalytic, enantioselective decarboxylative Mannich reactions of α,β-unsaturated β'-ketoacids and isatin -Boc imines, to give the corresponding 3-carbamoyl-2-oxindole derivatives, were developed. Subsequent N-deprotection and diastereoselective, intramolecular, aza-Michael reaction of the free amine provides previously unreported spiro[indoline-3,2'-piperidine]-2,4'-diones.

Bone disorders have increased with increasing the human lifespan, and despite the tissue's ability to self-regeneration, in many congenital problems and hard fractures, bone grafting such as autograft, allograft, and biomaterials implantation through surgery is traditionally used. Because of the adverse effects of these methods, the emergence of injectable hydrogels without the need for surgery and causing more pain for the patient is stunning to develop a new pattern for hard tissue engineering. These materials are formed with various natural and synthetic polymers with a crosslinked network through various chemical methods such as click chemistry, Michael enhancement, Schiff's base and enzymatic reaction and physical interactions with high water absorption which can mimic the environment of cells.
