Spiropins for SPPS: The rigid structure of an anomerically stabilised spiroketal motif enables the appendage of substituents in a fixed conformation. To assess the ability of a spiroketal motif to induce a turn structure and participate in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), an Fmoc-spiroketal amino acid was synthesised and incorporated into a spiroketal-containing cyclic peptide.

In recent years, the hydrazide skeleton, as a pivotal class of nitrogen-containing structures, has garnered considerable attention in medicinal chemistry and organic synthesis owing to its unique chemical versatility and broad-spectrum biological activities. In this study, a series of thiazole-containing benzoylhydrazine derivatives -, -, and - with structural divergence from conventional hydrazide-based molecular frameworks were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their antifungal/antioomycete activities. The antifungal/antioomycete assay showed that some of the targeted compounds exhibited remarkable and broad-spectrum antifungal activities.

Herein, we report that a novel and efficient bifunctional reagent, benzophenonoxime -(CF) thiocarbonate (BOST), is easily synthesized and successfully applied to the 1, ( ≥ 2)-trifluoromethylthioamination of alkenes under photocatalytic energy transfer conditions. This study not only achieves the radical trifluoromethylthioamination of olefins for the first time but also provides structurally important and diverse SCF-featured amino acid esters and amino nitriles that were previously inaccessible.

Genetic code expansion (GCE) technology has primarily been devoted to the introduction of noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) into ribosomally synthesized proteins or peptides. Its potential for modifying nonribosomal natural products remains unexplored. In this study, we introduce a novel strategy that integrates GCE with the directed evolution of cyclodipeptide synthase (CDPS) to engineer a new class of CDPSs capable of biosynthesizing cyclodipeptides containing ncAAs.

Introduction: Anxiety has been described in the initial stages of schizophrenia, and affective flattening in the chronic illness. The etiology remains unknown. Ketamine, a noncompetitive N-Methyl-D-amino-aspartate acid (NMDA) receptor antagonist, is used in rats as a translational model of schizophrenia.

The turnover of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soil regulated by biodegradable microplastics (MPs) has garnered much attention due to its profound impact on the storage and stability of soil organic matter. However, the transformation and reactivity of plant-derived and microbially derived DOM by microorganisms adapted to biodegradable MPs, and the involved microbial physiological processes, remain nearly unknown. Here, we added virgin and aged polylactic acid (PLA) and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) to agricultural soils and incubated for 56 days.
