Silylium-Catalyzed Activation of DonorAcceptor Strained Rings and Annulation with Indoles

Jérôme Waser, Emma Gabrielle Louise Robert

: Leveraging the unique reactivity profile of donor -acceptor aminocyclopropanes and cyclobutanes allows the preparation of complex nitrogen -substituted molecules. While most reports focus on donor -acceptor strained rings with two geminal carbonyl groups ...

Characterizing Conical Intersections in DNA/RNA Nucleobases with Multiconfigurational Wave Functions of Varying Active Space Size

Francesco Aquilante

We characterize the photochemically relevant conical intersections between the lowest-lying accessible electronic excited states of the different DNA/RNA nucleobases using Cholesky decomposition-based complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) al ...

Electronic Relaxation Dynamics of UV-Photoexcited 2-Aminopurine-Thymine Base Pairs in Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen Conformations

Rebecca Ann Ingle, Hugo Jean Baptiste Marroux

The fluorescent analogue 2-aminopurine (2AP) of the canonical nucleobase adenine (6-aminopurine) base-pairs with thymine (T) without disrupting the helical structure of DNA. It therefore finds frequent use in molecular biology for probing DNA and RNA struc ...

Array-based sensing of purine derivatives with fluorescent dyes

Kay Severin, Ziya Köstereli

Natural and synthetic purine derivatives such as caffeine, theophylline, 6-mercaptopurine and 8-chlorotheophylline are important drugs. Due to the structural similarity of these compounds, it is intrinsically difficult to prepare chemosensors for their sel ...

Novel Chemosensors for Biologically Important Analytes

Ziya Köstereli

In this work, fluorescent-based chemosensors for the detection of important analytes in aqueous solution are described. The sensors are based on different detection concepts, including analyte-induced aggregation/de-aggregation, pattern-based sensing and m ...

Cyclization and annulation reactions of nitrogen-substituted cyclopropanes and cyclobutanes

Jérôme Waser, Fides Benfatti, Florian Patrick Marie Daniel De la Barre De Nanteuil, Reto Frei, Filippo De Simone, Eloísa Sofía Serrano Robledo

Cyclization and annulation reactions initiated by ring-opening of small rings, especially cyclopropanes and cyclobutanes are now well-established in synthetic chemistry. Nevertheless, the potential of aminocyclopropanes and cyclobutanes, an important subcl ...
