The aryloxyamine motif is a prominent pharmacophore in drug design and development. While these biologically relevant structures could in principle be sustainably assembled from the base metal-catalyzed O-arylation of inexpensive and abundant amino alcohols with (hetero)aryl chlorides, reports of such challenging C-O bond formations with useful scope are lacking. In response, we report herein the hitherto unknown Ni-catalyzed C-O cross-coupling of N-protected amino alcohols (primary, secondary, and tertiary) with (hetero)aryl chlorides. Also presented are chemoselective sequential/telescoped C-N and C-O cross-couplings of the unprotected amino alcohol prolinol to afford an unsymmetrical diarylated product.

Amino alcohols are vital in natural products, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, and as key building blocks for various applications. Traditional synthesis methods often rely on polar bond retrosynthetic analysis, requiring extensive protecting group manipulations that complicate direct access. Here we show a streamlined approach using a serine-derived chiral carboxylic acid in stereoselective electrocatalytic decarboxylative transformations, enabling efficient access to enantiopure amino alcohols.

Mechanical pressing in Daqu production has introduced quality-affecting variations. Up to now, clear elucidation has not yet been applied to the mechanisms behind this phenomenon, and the determinants of Daqu quality are not yet completely excavated. For this reason, the physicochemical factors, enzyme activity, metabolites, and microbial communities were compared between the mechanical Daqu (MDQ) and traditional Daqu (TDQ) in this paper.

Purpose: Phenylephrine testing prior to Müller muscle conjunctival resection has traditionally been used to predict postoperative outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine if preoperative phenylephrine testing impacts postoperative changes in eyelid position.
Methods: In this multicenter cross-sectional cohort study, 270 eyelids of participants with involutional ptosis and levator function >12 mm who underwent Müller muscle conjunctival resection were divided into 2 comparison groups.
Cost-effectiveness of budesonide-formoterol in maintenance therapy of asthma patients.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze the cost-effectiveness of budesonide/formoterol compared to other asthma treatments at Mexico's National Institute for Respiratory Diseases.
- Budesonide/formoterol had a lower average cost per patient ($733.36 USD) compared to fluticasone/vilanterol ($767.24 USD), and it showed a significant reduction in exacerbations with an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of $613.31 USD for better management.
- Overall, budesonide/formoterol was found to be a very cost-effective treatment option, suggesting it could reduce healthcare costs associated with emergency visits and hospitalizations despite fewer exacerbations per patient.
How does dopamine convert into norepinephrine? Insights on the key step of the reaction.

Context: Dopamine -monooxygenase (D M) is an essential enzyme in the organism that regioselectively converts dopamine into R-norepinephrine, the key step of the reaction, studied in this paper, is a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) from dopamine to a superoxo complex on D M, forming a hydroperoxo intermediate and dopamine radical. It was found that the formation of a hydrogen bond between dopamine and the D M catalyst strengthens the substrate-enzyme interaction and facilitates the HAT which takes place selectively to give the desired enantiomeric form of the product. Six reactions leading to the hydroperoxo intermediate were analyzed in detail using theoretical and computational tools in order to identify the most probable reaction mechanism.
