Enzymatic reduction of a ketone can proceed in high enantiomeric excess, but this would require a stoichiometric amount of a reducing agent. Wolfgang Kroutil of the Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz devised (Angew.…
In the context of peptidyl ketone synthesis, Troels Skrydstrup of the University of Aarhus developed (J. Org. PMID:24377291 Chem. 2008, 73, 1088. DOI: 10.1021/jo702286b) the elegant SmI2-mediated conjugate addition of…
Hervé Clavier and Steven P. Nolan, now at St. Andrew’s University, found (Adv. Synth. Catal. 2008, 350, 2959.DOI: 10.1002/adsc.200800495)that the indenylidene Ru complex 1 was an excellent pre-catalyst for alkene…
The Jørgensen Synthesis of the Autoregulator IM-2 Amando Córdova of Stockholm University found (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 8468. DOI: 10.1002/anie.200802335) that the enantiomerically-enriched diastereomers from aminosulfenylation of 1…
(MacMillan) Yoshiji Takemoto of Kyoto University designed (Org. 288617-73-2 Chemscene Lett. 2009, 11, 2425. DOI: 10.1021/ol9006053) an organocatalyst for the enantioselective conjugate addition of alkene boronic acids to γ-hydroxy enones,…
Masahiro Yoshida of the University of Tokushima described(Tetrahedron Lett. 2008, 49, 5021.DOI: 10.1016/j.tetlet.2008.06.043)the Pt-mediated rearrangement of alkynyl oxiranes such as 1to the furan 2. Roman Dembinski of Oakland University reported(J.…
O-Centered radicals have been little used for C-O ring formation. PMID:24633055 Glenn M. Sammis of the University of British Columbia showed (Org. Lett. 2008, 10, 5083 DOI: 10.1021/ol802142k) that O-centered…
So et al., 2006). Thinking of the micromolar concentrations of nitrate out there inside the aquifer (Williams et al., 2011), this might also reasonably clarify the enrichment of bacteria in…
