- Exploiting the Biginelli reaction: Nitrogen-rich pyrimidine-based tercyclic α-helix mimetics
-
Several rationally designed pyrimidine-based scaffolds intended to mimic the spatial projection of the i, i+3, and i+7 residues of an α-helix and also possess improved aqueous solubility were prepared. A Biginelli-oxidation process was used to form the central pyrimidine ring of these scaffolds, which was subsequently manipulated to form pyrimidine-based tercyclic α-helix mimetics. A pyrimidine-based scaffold designed to mimic the α-helical BH3 domain of the pro-apoptotic Bak protein was also prepared as a putative inhibitor of the Bcl-xL/Bak protein-protein interaction. The pyrimidine-based tercyclic α-helix mimetics, and the putative Bcl-xL inhibitor, were assessed using a luminescence competition assay, however, none displayed inhibitory activity against Bcl-xL or Mcl-1.

- LUMINESCENT DIAZABENZIMIDAZOLE CARBENE METAL COMPLEXES
-
The present invention relates to metal-carbene complexes of the general formula (I), where variable M is Ir or Pt and that are characterized by variable R being a group of formula (a). The complexes are used in organic electronic devices, especially OLEDs (Organic Light-Emitting Diodes), illuminating elements, stationary visual display units and in material layers as emitter, charge transport material and/or charge or exiton blocker.

- Bromination of aromatic compounds using ammonium bromide and oxone
-
A simple, efficient and mild method for the selective bromination of activated aromatic compounds using ammonium bromide as the source of bromine and Oxone as the oxidant in methanol or water as solvent is reported. The reaction proceeds at ambient temperature in yields ranging from moderate to excellent without a catalyst. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

- Catalytic Halogenation of Selected Organic Compounds Mimicking Vanadate-dependent Marine Metalloenzymes
-
The ammonium metavanadate, mimicking vanadate-dependent metalloenzymes, efficiently catalyses the halogenation of a variety of organic substrates in dilute conditions in moderate to good yields using dilute hydrogen peroxide (30percent) as an oxidizing agent exhibiting remarkable ortho selectivity with electron-rich aromatics.
