Chemical transformations that install heteroatoms into C?H bonds are of significant interest because they streamline the construction of value-added small molecules. Direct C?H oxyfunctionalization, or the one step conversion of a C?H bond to a C?O bond, could be a highly enabling transformation due to the prevalence of the resulting enantioenriched alcohols in pharmaceuticals and natural products,. Here we report a single-flask photoredox/enzymatic process for direct C?H hydroxylation that proceeds with broad reactivity, chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity. This unified strategy advances general photoredox and enzymatic catalysis synergy and enables chemoenzymatic processes for powerful and selective oxidative transformations.

Page/Page column 213; 214; 215; 216; 217; 230, (2017/04/11)
Disclosed are compounds of general formula (I) that promote readthrough of a premature termination codon (PTC) of an RNA molecule in a translation system, and their use, alone or in combination with other compounds, such as aminoglycoside, to treat diseases or disorders ameliorated by modulation of a premature termination codon (PTC) of an RNA molecule in a translation system. The disorder or disease may be Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, Batten disease, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, cancer, and spinal muscular atrophy. Ar-L-B (I)
