Application

Used in a synthesis of 2-trifluoromethyl-7-azaindoles starting with 2,6-dihalopyridines. The derived chiral imine was used to prepare enantiopure α-trifluoromethyl alanines and diamines via a Strecker reaction followed by either nitrile hydrolysis or reduction.

Diastereomerically pure alpha-trifluoromethyl alpha-amino nitriles obtained by Strecker-type reactions from chiral CF3 imines and iminium proved to be very attractive versatile intermediates for the synthesis of various alpha-trifluoromethyl amino compounds. From these synthons, both enantiomers of alpha-trifluoromethyl alanine, trifluoromethyl 1,2-diamines

Fold-switch pathways remodel the secondary structure topology of proteins in response to the cellular environment. It is a major challenge to understand the dynamics of these folding processes. Here, we conducted an in-depth analysis of the α-helix-to-β-strand and β-strand-to-α-helix transitions

Some cobalt(III) complexes with a potentially tetradentate unsymmetrical NNOS Schiff base ligand have been synthesized and characterized using IR, 1HNMR, UV-Vis spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The equilibrium constants were measured spectrophotometrically for 1:1 adduct formation of the cobalt(III) complexes with
