The nitroxides of 7-azadispiro[5.1.5.2]pentadecane and 7-azadispiro[5.1.5.2]pentadeca-14-ene series have been prepared, including thiol-specific methane thiosulfonate spin label for site-directed spin labeling. The effect of spirocyclohexane moieties on chemical and spectral properties has been studied. The obtained temperature dependencies of electron spin

Drop it! A highly enantioselective catalytic cascade reaction of α-ketoacids and aldehydes is achieved using the title catalyst and water as the solvent. Fluorescence imaging shows that the catalyst is mainly distributed on the surface of emulsion droplets. Optically active

We report an enantioselective synthesis of the polyhydroxylated pyrrolidine alkaloid (+)-DMDP. The key steps in the synthesis were guanidinium ylide mediated asymmetric aziridination, stereospecific ring opening of trans-3-vinylaziridine-2-carboxylate with an oxygen nucleophile, iodine-mediated 5-endo-trig amino cyclization, and Prévost displacement. In

We have synthesized and characterized a series of compounds containing the 3-azatetracyclo[5.2.1.1(5,8).0(1,5)]undecane scaffold designed as analogues of amantadine, an inhibitor of the M2 proton channel of influenza A virus. Inhibition of the wild-type (WT) M2 channel and the amantadine-resistant A/M2-S31N
A series of sterically shielded pyrrolidine nitroxides were synthesized, and their reduction by ascorbate (vitamin C) indicate that nitroxide 3, a tetraethyl derivative of 3-carboxy-PROXYL, is reduced at the slowest rate among known nitroxides, i.e., at a 60-fold slower rate
