Thiazoles and benzothiazoles undergo regioselective C2-H chalcogenation via the sequence of thiazole C2-functionalization with phosphines to produce phosphonium salts which in turn react with S- and Se-centered nucleophiles to give products of C2-H chalcogenation and allow for recovery of the starting phosphine. The atom economical sequence proceeds under mild conditions and features broad scope for both the nucleophiles (electron-rich, electron-poor, sterically hindered thiols) and the various substituted benzothiazoles. The access to the substituted medicinally relevant C2-thio benzothiazoles also enables stereoselectivity improvements in the modified Julia olefinations.

Pyranose 2-oxidase (P2O) from Trametes multicolor is a flavoprotein oxidase that catalyzes the oxidation of aldopyranoses by molecular oxygen to yield the corresponding 2-keto-aldoses and hydrogen peroxide. P2O is the first enzyme in the class of flavoprotein oxidases, for which a C4a-hydroperoxy-flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) intermediate has been detected during the oxidative half-reaction. In this study, the reduction kinetics of P2O by d-glucose and 2-d-d-glucose at pH 7.

The crystal structure of an alternating RNA octamer, r(guauaca)dC (RNA bases are in lower case while the only DNA base is in upper case), with two 3' overhang residues one of them a terminal deoxycytosine and the other a ribose adenine, has been determined at 2.2 A resolution. The refined structure has an Rwork 18.
