Published: November 2020

Palladium(ii)-catalyzed regioselective syn-chloropalladation and anti-acetoxypalladation-initiated cascade processes were developed for the synthesis of functionalized tetrahydroquinolines. A series of N-propargyl arylamines tethered with an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl scaffold underwent atom economical cascade reactions to deliver chloro- and acetoxy-substituted tetrahydroquinolines bearing an exocyclic double bond in high yields. A mechanism is proposed for these cascade processes involving a sequential syn-chloropalladation or anti-acetoxypalladation of alkynes followed by intramolecular olefin insertion (6-exo-trig) and protonolysis steps. The reaction was completely regioselective and the terminal aryl/alkyl group of the propargyl moiety dictated the regiochemistry of the initial nucleopalladation. The role of the bidentate nitrogen ligand is crucial to trigger the acetoxypalladation-initiated cascade sequence in contrast to the chloropalladation-initiated process.

The South China Sea (SCS) is abundant with complex multiscale dynamic processes but their spatiotemporal variations, generation and evolution mechanisms, and mutual interactions remain inadequately understood due to the lack of long-term in situ observations. To explore oceanic multiscale dynamics in the SCS, the SCS Mooring Array (SCSMA) was began to be constructed since 2009. The SCSMA consists of ∼40 moorings and is the largest in situ ocean observing system in marginal seas worldwide.

Multienzyme Cascade Catalyzed Skeleton Rearrangement in a Caged Polyketide Biosynthesis.

Rearrangement of the skeleton is crucial for improving the structural complexity and diversity of type II polyketide natural products. In this study, we investigated the rearrangement process from a planar aromatic tetracyclic intermediate to the caged lactones, which is managed by five oxidoreductases. We chemically synthesized the proposed linear tetracyclic substrate, validated the transformation process through and experiments, and elucidated the enzyme-catalyzed mechanism using isotope labeling.

The utilization of cobalt-based sulfides is constrained by their inherently low conductivity and slow sodium ion diffusion kinetics. Modifying the electronic configuration and constructing heterostructures are promising strategies to enhance intrinsic conductivity and expedite the sodium ion diffusion process. In this study, heterogeneous nanoparticles of Se-substituted CoS2/CoSe2, embedded within heteroatom-modified carbon nanosheet, were synthesized using metal molten salt-assisted dimensionality reduction alongside concurrent sulfurization and selenization techniques.

Background: Individuals who have recently acquired HIV represent a unique population because the time frame since HIV acquisition is relatively short and identification of missed HIV prevention opportunities is, therefore, closer to real time and less subject to recall bias. Identifying prevention measures used and missed opportunities for using them, can help stop further HIV transmission.

Objectives: This systematic review aims to synthesise current global evidence on uptake of HIV prevention methods among people with recently acquired HIV from 2007, the year that the concept of ART as a prevention method was first introduced.
