High Optical Performance of Cyan‐Emissive CsPbBr3 Perovskite Quantum Dots Embedded in Molecular Organogels
This is the pre-peer reviewed version of the following article: High Optical Performance of Cyan‐Emissive CsPbBr3 Perovskite Quantum Dots Embedded in Molecular Organogels, which has been published in final form at https://doi.org/10.1002/adom.202001786. This article may be used for non-commercial purposes in accordance with Wiley Terms and Conditions for Use of Self-Archived Versions." Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) have fascinating optoelectronic properties, such as high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) for a broad range of materials, and the possibility to obtain different bandgaps with the same material or halide combinations. Nevertheless, blue‐emissive materials generally present…
Stereoselective Synthesis and Structural Correction of the Naturally Occurring Lactone Stagonolide G
A convergent synthesis of the structure proposed for the naturally occurring lactone stagonolide G is described. All three stereocenters were created with the aid of asymmetric Brown allylations. The lactone ring was built by means of a ring-closing metathesis (RCM). The synthetic and the natural compound differed in their spectral properties. A new structure is now proposed for stagonolide G and demonstrated by means of a chemical transformation.
Stereoselective synthesis of the cytotoxic 14-membered macrolide aspergillide A.
A stereoselective synthesis of the cytotoxic 14-membered macrolide aspergillide A has been performed. The preparation of a cis-2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyran ring via stereoselective reduction of an intermediate cyclic hemiacetal was one key feature of the synthesis. The macrocyclic lactone ring was created by means of a ring-closing metathesis (RCM), whereby the new C=C bond displayed exclusively the undesired Z configuration. Conversion to the required E configuration was achieved via photochemical isomerization.
