Abstract

We demonstrate that positively-charged NBD amines can effectively scavenge biological H2S in live cells and in mice.

Abstract

The piperazine ring is a very important factor in governing molecular structure to generate the special properties of a compound.


A semipinacol rearrangement of vinylogous α-ketol cocatalyzed by a cinchona-based primary amine and N-Boc-phenylglycines: mechanisms, roles of catalysts and the origin of enantioselectivity


Chao-Xian Yan, Fang-Ling Yang, Ka Lu, Xing Yang, Pan-Pan Zhou and Xiangfeng Shao
Org. Chem. Front., 2020,7, 1845-1861

Abstract

A semipinacol rearrangement of vinylogous α-ketol cocatalyzed by a cinchona-based primary amine and Brønsted acids can be achieved with good enantiocontrol, and theoretical investigations have been performed to uncover and understand it in detail.


Inhibiting cancer metabolism by aromatic carbohydrate amphiphiles that act as antagonists of the glucose transporter GLUT1


Alexandra Brito, Patrícia M. R. Pereira, Diana Soares da Costa, Rui L. Reis, Rein V. Ulijn, Jason S. Lewis, Ricardo A. Pires and Iva Pashkuleva
Chem. Sci., 2020,11, 3737-3744

Abstract

We report on aromatic N-glucosides that inhibit selectively the cancer metabolism via two coexistent mechanisms: by deprivation of the glucose uptake through blocking of GLUT1 and by formation of sequestering nanonet through biocatalytic self-assembly.

Org. Biomol. Chem., 2019,17, 3389-3395

Abstract

A mitochondria-targeted red-emitting probe is designed and prepared for H2S detection in living cells and zebrafish.
