Oxidation processes and me

Urs von Gunten

This publication summarizes my journey in the field of chemical oxidation processes for water treatment over the last 30+ years. Initially, the efficiency of the application of chemical oxidants for micropollutant abatement was assessed by the abatement of ...

A multi-reservoir extruder for time-resolved serial protein crystallography and compound screening at X-ray free-electron lasers

Christoph Bostedt, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira

Serial crystallography at X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) permits the determination of radiation-damage free static as well as time-resolved protein structures at room temperature. Efficient sample delivery is a key factor for such experiments. Here, we ...

Hypervalent Iodine: New Reagents and Functionalization of Peptides

Eliott Hugo Joran Le Du

Alkynes are found in a multitude of natural or synthetic bioactive compounds. In addition to the capacity of these chemical motifs to impact the physicochemical properties of a molecule of interest, the well-established reactivity of alkynes makes them ide ...

Macrocycle synthesis strategy based on step-wise “adding and reacting” three components enables screening of large combinatorial libraries

Christian Heinis, Gerardo Turcatti, Alessandro Angelini, Alessandro Zorzi, Jonathan Patrice Vesin, Kaycie Marie Butler, Julien Bortoli Chapalay, Sangram Shivdas Kale, Ganesh Kumar Mothukuri, Carl Leonard Stenbratt

Macrocycles provide an attractive modality for drug development, but generating ligands for new targets is hampered by the limited availability of large macrocycle libraries. We have established a solution-phase macrocycle synthesis strategy in which three ...

Asymmetric Alkenyl C−H Functionalization by Cp x Rh III forms 2 H ‐Pyrrol‐2‐ones through [4+1]‐Annulation of Acryl Amides and Allenes

Nicolai Cramer, Shouguo Wang

An efficient CpxRhIII‐catalyzed enantioselective alkenyl C−H functionalization/[4+1] annulation of acryl amides and allenes is reported. The described transformation provides straightforward access to enantioenriched α,β‐unsaturated‐γ‐lactams bearing a qua ...
