Article Abstract
Two distinct and scalable enantioselective approaches to the tricyclic indole (R)-2-(7-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indol-1-yl)acetate, an important synthon for a preclinical S1P(1) receptor agonist, are reported. Route 1 employs a modified version of Smith's modular 2-substituted indole synthesis as the key transformation. Route 2 involves a highly enantioselective CuH-catalyzed 1,4-hydrosilylation as the stereodefining step. Both routes can be performed without chromatography to provide multigram quantities of the tricycle in ≥98% ee.

The enantioselective construction of quaternary carbon stereocenters bearing amine functionalities represents a significant challenge in organic synthesis despite their prevalence in pharmaceutically active compounds. Herein, we report a versatile metallaphotoredox platform for the asymmetric incorporation of amine fragments onto quaternary carbons via coupling of alkene-tethered aryl bromides with readily available α-silylamines. This transformation proceeds under mild conditions without requiring organometallic reagents or stoichiometric reductants.

Both diffusion magnetic resonance imaging and transcriptomic technologies have provided unprecedented opportunities to dissect brain network communication, offering insights from structural connectivity and signaling molecules separately. However, incorporating these complementary modalities for characterizing the interregional communication remains challenging. By simplifying the communication processes into an optimal transport problem, which is defined as the ligand-receptor expression coupling constrained by structurally-derived communication cost, we develop a method called CLRIA (connectome-constrained ligand-receptor interaction analysis) to infer a low-rank representation of ligand-receptor interaction-mediated communication networks.

These compounds are structurally distinguished by the presence of a tetronate ring and -decalin with six contiguous asymmetric centres united by a seven-membered oxygen heterocycle. Herein we describe the first total synthesis of the antibiotic (-)-13-deoxytetrodecamycin.

Background: Valvular heart disease (VHD) commonly leads to the development of turbulent blood flow. Turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), measured with 4D flow MRI, may be a complement to current metrics for early identification of VHD.
Purpose: To investigate TKE as a marker of VHD in relation to flow velocity and cardiovascular geometry.
Echo-Guided Commissural Edge-to-Edge Suture for Repair of Secondary Tricuspid Regurgitation.

The management of secondary tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is rapidly evolving with the availability of tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge (T-TEER). In the evaluation of TR, the subtending mechanism (annular dilatation, symmetric or asymmetric leaflet tethering, or a combination of them) is reflected by the topography of the regurgitant jet (central, located in the anteroseptal or posteroseptal commissure, or a combination of them). Ring annuloplasty is a mainstem of surgery for TR.
