Article Abstract

Chromanone is a privileged structure with a wide range of unique biological activities. A phosphine-promoted, three-component domino sequence of salicylaldehyde with but-3-yn-2-one was well designed for the construction of the chromanone skeleton under mild conditions. As a consequence, a series of novel chromanone analogues bearing an all-carbon quaternary center were facilely assembled from commercially available starting materials with moderate to good yields, which hold promising applications in pharmacological studies. Mechanistic experiments were conducted to confirm the proposed mechanism.

Rapid construction of bisindole alkaloids caulersin and racemosin B from methyl 3-indolylpyruvate based on a biomimetic dimerization strategy.

Attempts to directly construct bisindole alkaloids caulerpin and caulersin resulted in the discovery of novel synthetic approaches to a specific bisindole framework with a central troponoid core and an unexpected product-racemosin B. The developed biomimetic domino sequences were triggered by a dimerization process from a shared precursor, methyl 3-indolylpyruvate. Thus, caulersin and racemosin B could be produced in 1 and 2 step processes.

Glycosylation is a post-translational modification essential for proper protein folding and function, with significant roles in diverse biological processes, including neurogenesis. MAN2A2 enzyme is required for proper N-glycan trimming/maturation in the N-glycosylation pathway. Whole-exome sequencing of a trio revealed two potentially causative variants in the MAN2A2 gene in a patient with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and cognitive delay.

The four-way DNA junction is the most prevalent structural motif in DNA nanotechnology. Recently, a reconfigurable DNA nanoarray (domino array) was created with this basic motif to realize intricate, stepwise transformation by the information relay between neighboring four-way junction units. Here, we generate a DNA domino array with same sequences at every junction, and use it as a platform to study how the design of DNA bases at junctions influences the kinetics and thermodynamics of transformation of four-way junctions in reconfigurable DNA nanoarrays.

Carbon-carbon bond cleavage is a transformative strategy in chemical synthesis, particularly for modifying complex molecules. While the cleavage of C(sp²)=C(sp²) π-bonds is relatively straightforward, the selective cleavage of unpolarized C(sp²)-C(sp³) σ-bonds remains a significant challenge. In this study, we present a redox-neutral approach for hydrodealkenylation, enabling the selective cleavage of C(sp²)-C(sp³) σ-bonds in aryl olefins.

3-Alkylideneoxindole derivatives, which constitute the core structural framework of current pharmaceuticals, are widely present as bioactive components in numerous natural molecules. Herein, a Pd-catalyzed cascade synthetic method for the construction of 3-alkylideneoxindoles has been developed, and the reaction sequence comprises aryl C-H activation/intramolecular carbopalladation/Heck cross-coupling. Utilizing 10 mol% Pd(OAc) as the catalyst, 2 equiv.
