Esters of proteinogenic amino acids efficiently catalyse the formation of erythrose and threose under aqueous conditions in the highest yields and enantioselectivities yet reported. Remarkably while esters of (L)-proline yield (L)-carbohydrates, esters of (L)-leucine and (L)-alanine generate (D)-carbohydrates, offering the

TNA (alpha-( l)-threofuranosyl-(3'-2') nucleic acid) is a nucleic acid in which the ribofuranose building block of the natural nucleic acid RNA is replaced by the tetrofuranose alpha-( l)-threose. This shortens the repetitive unit of the backbone by one bond as

Hyperglycemia, oxidative stress, and the onset and progression of diabetic complications are strongly linked. Reduction of oxidative stress could be of utmost importance in the long-term treatment of diabetic patients. The chronic nature of the disease calls for a mode

In this work, we present novel complexes of hydroxyaldehydes and ketones with palladium(II). The compounds are studied by two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy in solution (COSY, HMQC, HMBC). Glycolaldehyde, d-glyceraldehyde, glyoxal and 2,4-O-ethylidene-d-erythrose were used as aldehydes, d-erythrulose was used as an

alpha-l-Threofuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates (tNTPs) are tetrafuranose nucleoside derivatives and potential progenitors of present-day beta-d-2'-deoxyribofuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs). Therminator DNA polymerase, a variant of the 9 degrees N DNA polymerase, is an efficient DNA-directed threosyl nucleic acid (TNA) polymerase. Here we
