A simple and efficient strategy for the regio- and stereoselective synthesis of carbon-branched sugar derivatives is described. The successful implementation of Wittig rearrangement on substrates derived by Ferrier rearrangement of various glycals and 3--alkenyl glycals is studied extensively. A highly selective [1,2]- or [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement is revealed that provides a novel class of stereodefined 3--branched glycals and -glycosides, which are otherwise difficult to obtain.

Article Synopsis
  • The CMS experiment conducted a search for charge-parity violation in decays using proton-proton collision data from 2018, analyzing around 10 billion events with b hadrons decaying into charm hadrons.
  • The flavor of the neutral D meson was determined through the charge of pions in the reconstructed decays, and an asymmetry measurement in the decays was reported, taking into account various uncertainties.
  • This research marks the first asymmetry measurement by the CMS in the charm sector and the first to use a fully hadronic final state in such analyses.

Article Synopsis
  • The LightFix Trial aimed to assess the effectiveness of the IlluminOss System (IS) in treating impending and completed pathological fractures of the humerus over one year.
  • A study with 81 patients showed significant decreases in pain and increases in upper limb function after treatment, with notable improvements in pain scores and functional metrics throughout the year.
  • While the IS provided benefits, it had a device fracture rate of 15%, suggesting caution when used alone for completed fractures.

Article Synopsis
  • Blood-derived DNA methylation shows potential for early detection of dementia risk, linking biological factors with lifestyle and environmental influences.
  • A multivariate methylation risk score (MMRS) was developed, predicting mild cognitive impairment independently of age and sex, alongside significant future risk of cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.
  • The study highlights the integration of machine learning and omics data to enhance dementia risk prediction at the population level.

An Azide-Free Synthesis of Metallodiazomethanes Using Nitrous Oxide.

J Am Chem Soc

September 2024

Faculty of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Ruhr-University Bochum, Universitaetsstrasse 150, Bochum 44801, Germany.

Article Synopsis
  • Diazo compounds are important for chemical synthesis but often use dangerous materials; this study presents a safer method to create alkali metal diazomethanides using metalated ylides and nitrous oxide.
  • The reaction follows a Wittig-like mechanism and involves a unique cycloaddition that releases phosphine oxide, leading to enhanced stability of the resulting diazomethanes.
  • The improved thermal stability allows for various applications, including creating metal complexes and synthesizing compounds like 1,2,3-triazoles and diazoacetates.

Chemoselectivity Switch between Enantioselective [2,3]-Wittig Rearrangement and Conia-Ene-Type Reactions of Propargyloxyoxindoles.

Chemistry

October 2024

State Key Laboratory of Antiviral Drugs, Pingyuan Laboratory, Key Laboratory of Green Chemical Media and Reactions, Ministry of Education, School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Collaborative Innovation Center of Henan Province for Green Manufacturing of Fine Chemicals, Henan Normal University, Xinxiang, Henan, 453007, China.

Despite the existence of three competing reactions for propargyloxyoxindoles, we report a chemoselectivity switch between enantioselective propargyl [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement and Conia-ene-type reactions, with suppression of the [1,2]-Wittig-type rearrangement. Using C-symmetric imidazolidine-pyrroloimidazolone pyridine as the ligand and Ni(acac) as the Lewis acid, diverse 3-hydroxy 3-substituted oxindoles containing allenyl groups were obtained in up to 98 % yield and 99 % ee via asymmetric propargyl [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement. In the presence of AgOTf-Duanphos, chiral spiro dihydrofuran oxindoles were given in up to 98 % yield and 91 % ee through a Conia-ene-type reaction.
