A catalytic enantioselective conjugate addition of indolizines to enones is described. The chiral phosphoric acid (S)-TRIP activates α,β-unsaturated ketones, thereby promoting an enantioface-differentiating attack by indolizines. Using this reaction, several alkylated indolizines were synthesized in good yields and with enantiomeric ratios of up to 98:2.

In this work, we developed potential multifunctional agents to combat Alzheimer's disease. According to our strategy, fragments of tacrine and donepezil were merged in a unique hybrid structure. After successfully synthesizing the compounds, they were evaluated for their dual AChE/BuChE inhibitor potential and neuroprotector response using a glutamate-induced excitotoxicity model.

A strong n-type perovskite layer is crucial in achieving high open-circuit voltage (V) and power conversion efficiency (PCE) in the p-i-n solar cells, as the weak n-type perovskites result in a loss of V, and the p-type perovskites contain numerous electron traps that cause the severe carrier recombination. Here, three types of perylene diimide (PDI) based small molecule dopants with different dimensions, including 1D-PDI, 2D-PDI, and 3D-PDI are designed, to produce heavier n-type perovskites. The PDI-based molecules with Selenium atoms have a strong electron-donating ability, effectively enlarging the quasi-Fermi level splitting within the perovskites.

Organocatalytic enantioselective formal nucleophilic substitution reactions of α-(2-hydroxynaphthalen-8-yl)propargyl alcohols with 1-(1-indol-3-yl)naphthalen-2-ols have been established for the first time. With the aid of a suitable chiral phosphoric acid, alkynyl 8-methylenenaphthalen-2(8)-one was formed in situ from the corresponding α-(2-hydroxynaphthalen-8-yl)propargyl alcohol, followed by enantioselective 1,6-conjugate additions of 1-(1-indol-3-yl)naphthalen-2-ols to afford a number of enantioenriched (,)-2,3-disubstituted indoles in 50-80% yields with 81-93% ee and (,)-2,3-disubstituted indoles in 18-40% yields with 79-96% ee. Notably, these nucleophilic substitution products were characterized by the presence of functional groups, including indole, naphthol, and alkynyl units, while exhibiting both axial and central chirality.

Non-viral vectors have gained recognition for their ability to enhance the safety of gene delivery processes. Among these, polyethyleneimine (PEI) stands out as the most widely utilized cationic polymer due to its accessibility. Traditional methods of modifying PEI, such as ligand conjugation, chemical derivatization, and cross-linking, are associated with intricate preparation procedures, limited transfection efficiency, and suboptimal biocompatibility.
