Mild synthesis of mercaptonitriles from vinyl nitriles and their cyclization reactions

Frank Nüesch, Antonia Neels

Thiol-ene addition of thioacetic acid A is widely used in the synthesis of thiols from vinyl precursors, but so far has not been conducted on non-conjugated vinyl nitriles. The challenge when vinyl nitriles are used is to selectively conduct the thiol-ene ...

The Molecular Mechanism of the Catalase-like Activity in Horseradish Peroxidase

Ursula Röthlisberger, Pablo Campomanes Ramos

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is one of the most relevant peroxidase enzymes, used extensively in immunochemistry and biocatalysis applications. Unlike the closely related catalase enzymes, it exhibits a low activity to disproportionate hydrogen peroxide (H ...

Novel Applications of Nitrous Oxide and Transition Metals for C-C and C-N Bond Formation

Gregor Kiefer

This thesis describes novel methods for and investigations into C–C and C–N bond formation reactions. Chapter 1 gives a very brief overview of established strategies for the formation of new C–C bonds in organic synthesis. In chapter 2, a multi‐step one‐po ...

Base-Catalyzed Intramolecular Hydroamination of Cyclohexa-2,5-dienes: Insights into the Mechanism through DFT Calculations and Application to the Total Synthesis of epi-Elwesine

Kurt Schenk

The base-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination of 1-ethylaminocyclohexa-2,5-dienes is described. The transformation proceeds through isomerization of the cyclohexa-1,4-dienyl fragment into the corresponding conjugated 1,3-diene prior to the hydroaminatio ...

What Singles Out the G[8-5]C Intrastrand DNA Cross-Link? Mechanistic and Structural Insights from Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics Simulations

Naturally occurring intrastrand oxidative crosslink lesions have proven to be a potent source of endogenous DNA damage. Among the variety of lesions that can be formed and have been identified, G[8-5]C damage (in which the C8 atom of a guanine is covalentl ...

Mapping the fine structure of a eukaryotic promoter input-output function

Sebastian Maerkl, Nicolas Dénervaud, Arun Stephen Rajkumar

The precise tuning of gene expression levels is essential for the optimal performance of transcriptional regulatory networks. We created 209 variants of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae PHO5 promoter to quantify how different binding sites for the transcriptio ...

How Strong Is Hydrogen Bonding in Ionic Liquids? Combined X-ray Crystallographic, Infrared/Raman Spectroscopic, and Density Functional Theory Study

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Gabor Laurenczy, Zhaofu Fei, Ning Yan, Emilia Paunescu

Hydrogen bonding in ionic liquids based on the 1-(2'-hydroxylethyl)-3-methylimidazolium cation (C(2)OHmim) and various anions (A) of differing H-bond acceptor strength, viz. hexafluorophosphate PF6, tetrafluoroborate BF4, bis-(trifluoro ...

The Fate of a Zwitterion in Water from ab Initio Molecular Dynamics: Monoethanolamine (MEA)-CO2

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci

Understanding the fundamental reactions accompanying the capture of carbon dioxide in amine solutions is critical for the design of high-performance solvents and requires an accurate modeling of the solute-solvent interaction. As a first step toward this g ...

Systematic Analysis of Yeast Gene Expression by Synthetic Promoter Libraries

Arun Stephen Rajkumar

The precise tuning of gene expression levels is essential for optimal performance of transcriptional regulatory networks. Many regulatory components control promoter output, but transcription factor (TF) binding sites are amongst the most prominent. Beside ...

Revised self-consistent continuum solvation in electronic-structure calculations

Nicola Marzari, Oliviero Andreussi

The solvation model proposed by Fattebert and Gygi [J. Comput. Chem. 23, 662 (2002)] and Scherlis et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 124, 074103 (2006)] is reformulated, overcoming some of the numerical limitations encountered and extending its range of applicability. ...
