A total of 47 flavanones were expediently synthesized via one-pot β-arylation of chromanones, a class of simple ketones possessing chemically unactivated β sites, with arylboronic acids via tandem palladium(II) catalysis. This reaction provides a novel route to various flavanones, including natural products such as naringenin trimethyl ether, in yields up to 92%.

Degradable thermosets via orthogonal polymerizations of a single monomer.
Nature
January 2025
Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA.
Crosslinked thermosets are highly durable materials, but overcoming their petrochemical origins and inability to be recycled poses a grand challenge. Many strategies to access crosslinked polymers that are bioderived or degradable-by-design have been proposed, but they require several resource-intensive synthesis and purification steps and are not yet feasible alternatives to conventional consumer materials. Here we present a modular, one-pot synthesis of degradable thermosets from the commercially available, biosourced monomer 2,3-dihydrofuran (DHF).

Combined cross-linked enzyme aggregates (Combi-CLEAs) of β-Galactosidase (β-Gal) and Glucose Isomerase (GI) allow the transformation of d-lactose to lactose-fructose syrup through one-pot cascade biocatalytic reactions. Despite its promise, the low thermostability of β-Gal and high-temperature demands for GI limits this application. Trehalose is a protein-stabilizing disaccharide which has been utilized in immobilized enzyme systems to enhance protein thermostability.

Rapid, quantitative, and sensitive detection of viral oligonucleotides can help to diagnose the infection before symptoms occur, monitor disease progression, and identify viral subtypes. A one-pot, simple, rapid hairpin-mediated nicking enzymatic signal amplification (HNESA) method was previously developed for nucleic acids detection. In the present work, this method was applied for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA by designing an assistant probe (AP) that contains the complementary sequence for the target, the sequence of hybridization with the loop region of the molecular beacon (MB), and the recognition site of the nicking endonuclease Nt.

A ruthenium-catalyzed intramolecular cascade cyclization of allene-alkyne has been achieved. This method offers a streamlined and atom-economical approach for the construction of sulfone bearing 1-cyclopenta[]naphthalenes, an important structural scaffold that exists in biologically active compounds. Our approach, backed by mechanistic insights from deuterium labeling, DFT calculations, and potential for reaction scale-up, presents synthetic chemists with an invaluable tool for efficiently producing a distinct carbon framework in a one-pot manner.

Department of Chemistry, College of Sciences, Northeastern University, Shenyang 110819, China.
Detection and imaging of dual miRNAs based on AND logic gates can improve the accuracy of the early diagnosis of disease. However, a single target may lead to false positive. Hence, this work rationally integrates hyperbranched rolling circle amplification (HRCA) with Cas12a by replacing the PAM sequence with a bubble to sensitively detect and image miRNA-10b and miRNA-21 based on the AND logic gate.
