Background: Carbonyl groups are important functional groups and they play a key role in organic chemistry. This group needs to be protected in multistep synthesis against various reagents for a counter-reaction. The effort towards developing an efficient methodology for the protection of car-bonyl functional group is always a demanding reaction. The protection of carbonyl compounds for in-hibiting their chemical reactivity is an important operation in chemistry. In this paper, camphor sulfonic acid-catalysed protection of various carbonyl compounds is developed. This method is simple, envi-ronmentally friendly and yields products in high yields.

Method: Commercially available camphor sulfonic acid is used as organo-catalyst for the protection of carbonyl functionality. This catalyst is also employed for the protection of carbonyl functionality as thi-oacetal/mixed ketal in excellent yield. The newly synthesize compounds are characterized using 1HNMR, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy.

Result: A diverse carbonyl functional group is protected in excellent yield under mild reaction condi-tions.

Conclusion: We have developed an efficient organocatalysed protection method of carbonyl function-ality applicable to wide range of substrates.

The NMDA receptor has long attracted researchers' attention due to its potential as a drug target and its central role in the central nervous system. The NMDA receptor is a ligand-gated and voltage-dependent ion channel widely distributed in the central nervous system. In this study, we employed a drug design strategy combining "molecular assembly" and "combinatorial chemistry.

Lipid and protein oxidation have significant effects on the shelf-life and nutritional value of meat and meat products. While lipid oxidation has been extensively studied, it has been recognized that proteins are also susceptible to oxidation. However, the precise mechanisms of oxygen-induced amino acid and protein modifications in the food matrix remain unclear.

The lack of effective protection against UVB radiation, that severely disrupts the metabolism of keratinocytes, underlines the search for bioactive compounds that would provide effective protection without causing side effects. Therefore, the aim of the study has been to assess the effect of two compounds, that are different in terms of structure and properties: 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid-EAA (a stable derivative of vitamin C) and cannabigerol-CBG, used separately or concurrently, on the metabolism of keratinocytes previously exposed to UVB. The obtained results indicate diverse, yet mutually reinforcing localization of the tested compounds, both within the membrane structures and cytosol.

Divergent synthesis of valuable molecules through common starting materials and metal catalysis represents a longstanding challenge and a significant research goal. We here describe chemodivergent, highly enantio- and regioselective nickel-catalyzed reductive and dehydrogenative coupling reactions of alkynes, aldehydes, and silanes. A single chiral Ni-based catalyst is leveraged to directly prepare three distinct enantioenriched products (silyl-protected trisubstituted chiral allylic alcohols, oxasilacyclopentenes, and silicon-stereogenic oxasilacyclopentenes) in a single chemical operation.
