The design and synthesis of oligoamide α-helix peptidomimetics is reported. The oligoamide type systems are prepared in a modular fashion by coupling the monomers using palladium-catalyzed carbonylation chemistry. This enabled us to use substrates with a low nucleophilicity, leading to previously unreported pyrazine based oligoamide α-helix mimetics. The proof of principle is given by synthesizing a small set of compounds. Various end-capping groups were introduced and also a mixed multimer was successfully prepared.

The photophysical properties of six new luminescent tetrahedral Zn(II) complexes are presented that survey two electronic donor moieties (phenolate and carbazolate) and three electronic acceptors (pyridine, pyrimidine, and pyrazine). A unique ligand based on an -terphenyl motif forms an eight-membered chelate, which enhances through-space charge-transfer (CT) interactions by limiting through-bond conjugation between the donor and acceptor. A single isomeric product was obtained in yields up to 90%.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematological malignancy. Previous studies have validated the prognostic significance of the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in patients with certain solid tumors. However, the relationship between the PLR and prognosis in myeloma patients has not been clearly demonstrated.

Imidazo based heterocyclic derivatives are considered as privileged scaffolds due to their presence in various pharmacologically active compounds and in marketed formulations. The present study reports toxicological evaluation of three imidazo based heterocyclic derivatives which are currently being investigated for their potential anticancer activity. Compounds IG-01-007, IG-01-008, and IG-01-009 were assessed for cytotoxicity, hemolysis, and DNA fragmentation activity.

Background: Edible oils are susceptible to contamination with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) throughout production, storage, and transportation processes due to their lipophilic nature. The necessity of quantifying PAHs present in complex oil matrices at trace levels, which bind strongly to impurities in oil matrices, poses a major challenge to the accurate quantification of these contaminants. Therefore, the development of straightforward and effective methods for the separation and enrichment of PAHs in oil samples prior to instrumental analysis is paramount to guaranteeing food safety.

Finding an effective treatment for T-PLL patients remains a significant challenge. Alemtuzumab, currently the gold standard, is insufficient in managing the aggressiveness of the disease in the long term. Consequently, numerous efforts are underway to address this unmet clinical need.
