4-Isopropyl-2,6,7-trioxa-1-phosphabicyclo[2.2.2]octane 1-oxide has a mouse intraperitoneal lethal dose, 50 percent effective, of 0.18 milligram per kilogram of body weight. Related compounds used by many chemical researchers are also highly toxic. Brain acetylcholinesterase inhibition is not involved in their mode of action. The structural similarity of these compounds to adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) is of interest.

A new synergistic flame retardant named Bisiminopropyl trimethoxysilane-1,3,5-triazine-O-bicyclic pentaerythritol phosphate (BTPODE) was synthesized, which is a type of Si/P/N flame retardant. This was accomplished by grafting aminopropyl trimethoxysilane and bicyclic pentaerythritol phosphate onto a triazine ring structure, serving as an intermediate. The structure of BTPODE was determined using nuclear magnetic resonance (H NMR, C NMR, and P NMR) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR).

Nonclassical P(III) centers have attracted much attention in recent years. Incorporating a P(III) center in a rigid bicyclic platform offers a particularly attractive way to invoke significant geometric distortion of the phosphorus atom that may in turn induce unusual reactivity. Although still relatively scarcely explored, phosphorus centers enforced in a non-C symmetry have gained significant traction lately.

Solid-binding peptides are a simple and versatile tool for the non-covalent modification of solid material surfaces, and a variety of peptides have been developed by reference to natural proteins or de novo design. Here, for the first time, we report the discovery of a bicyclic peptide targeting the heterogeneous material polypropylene by combining phage display technology and next-generation sequencing. We find that the enrichment properties of bicyclic peptides capable of binding to polypropylene are distinct from linear peptides, as reflected in amino acid abundance and a trend toward negative net charges and high hydrophobicity.
