Synthesis of Fluorinated Bent-Core Mesogens (BCMs) Containing the 1,2,4-Oxadiazole Ring

New fluorinated bent-core mesogens containing the 1,2,4-oxadiazole or 1,2,4-triazole nucleus have been synthesized taking advantage of the ANRORC (Addition of Nucleophile, Ring-Opening, Ring-Closure) reactivity of 5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles. Physical state changes of the obtained compounds were characterized through DSC, POM, and SAXS. Besides the formation of a smectic mesophase, a novel behavior as organic molecular glass was evidenced for some 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives.

Optimization of a new lead promoting the readthrough of the nonsense mutations for CFTR rescue in human CF cells Laura Lentini, Raffaella Melfi, Sara Baldassano, Marco Tutone, Aldo Di Leonardo, Andrea Pace, Ivana Pibiri Department of Biological, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences and Technologies (STEBICEF), University of Palermo Background and rationale Cystic Fibrosis patients with nonsense mutations in the CFTR gene have a more severe form of the disease. Nonsense mutations represent about 10% of the mutations that affect the CFTR gene and they are frequently associated to the classical F508 mutation (1). A potential treatment for this genetic alteration is to promote the translationa…
