The tri(-butyl)phosphine-catalyzed reaction of isatylidene malononitriles and bis-chalcones in chloroform at 65 °C afforded functionalized spiro[cyclohexane-1,3'-indolines] in good yields and with good diastereoselectivity. On the other hand, the tri(-butyl)phosphine-catalyzed reaction of 3-(ethoxycarbonylmethylene)oxindoles and bis-chalcones gave functionalized spiro[cyclohexane-1,3'-indolines] with different regioselectivity. Additionally, the tri(-butyl)phosphine-promoted domino annulation reaction of isatins and ethyl isatylidene cyanoacetates produced spiro[indoline-3,2'-furan-3',3''-indolines] in satisfactory yields.

A copper-catalyzed domino addition/cyclization reaction was developed to synthesize novel benzoselenazole-linked 1,2,3-triazole and tetracyclic fused 12-benzo[4,5]selenazole[2,3-]quinazolin-12-one derivatives from isoselenocyanates. This domino reaction efficiently constructed multiple new chemical bonds in a single step, forming either four (one C-Se and three C-) or three (one C-Se and two C-) bonds. The reaction offers several key advantages, including mild conditions, broad substrate compatibility, and straightforward and safe operation.

We report herein a robust enantioselective ring opening coupling of oxabenzonorbornadienes via Pd(II)-catalyzed domino cyclization of alkynylanilines, which features the formation of three covalent bonds and two contiguous stereocenters with excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivity and a broad substrate scope. The good functional group tolerance of this domino desymmetrization strategy enables efficient late-stage transformation of natural product-derived alkynylanilines. The resulting indolated dihydronaphthols could serve as a valuable platform to streamline the diversity-oriented synthesis of other valuable enantioenriched tetrahydronaphthalene derivatives.

Accurate protein synthesis requires ribosomes to integrate signals from distant functional sites and execute complex dynamics. Despite advances in understanding ribosome structure and function, two key questions remain: how information is transmitted between these distant sites, and how ribosomal movements are synchronized? We recently highlighted the existence of ribosomal protein networks, likely evolved to participate in ribosome signaling. Here, we investigate the relationship between ribosomal protein networks and ribosome dynamics.

Herein, a one-pot domino catalyzed three-component process is described, which is initiated by a palladium/zinc cooperatively catalyzed cycloaddition between trimethylenemethane (TMM) and unactivated alkyl/aryl imines, followed by one-pot isomerization and Zn(OTf)-catalyzed DDQ oxidation, furnishing valuable substituted pyrroles. We disclose that the palladium/zinc cooperative catalysis affords a dual-Zn(OTf)-stabilized azapalladacycle, wherein the Pd-N bond is polarized by Zn(OTf), facilitating a unique outer-sphere allylic amination. Moreover, subsequent DDQ dehydrogenation can be feasibly promoted by zinc catalysis.

Introduction: Cystathionine-β-synthase deficiency (CBSd) is an inherited metabolic liver disease causing morbidities in eyes, skeleton, brain, and vasculature. Despite its potential lethality due to thromboembolism and liver failure, sole diagnosis of CBSd seemed not to fulfill the enlistment criteria for deceased donor liver transplantation in previous reports.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed three cases of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for pediatric CBSd patients responding poorly to conservative treatment in Beijing Friendship Hospital, and a literature review was performed.
