ChemInform Abstract: Selective Formal Transesterification of Fluorinated 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethyl α-Imino Esters Mediated by TBAF.
2008
The scope of the transesterification reaction between β-fluorinated α-imino esters and various electrophiles in the presence of TBAF as fluorine source is described. The reaction is highly selective for alkyl iodides, bromides, and mesylates, while alkyl chlorides react at a significantly slower rate and tosylates do not react under the reaction conditions. This methodology represents a simple and useful alternative for the preparation of a wide variety of fluorinated α-imino esters.
Inside Cover: A Boron Dipyrromethene (BODIPY)-Based CuII-Bipyridine Complex for Highly Selective NO Detection (Chem. Eur. J. 44/2015)
2015
Sensitive and selective plasmonic assay for spermine as biomarker in human urine.
2014
A simple, fast, and highly selective and sensitive colorimetric assay to detect nanomolar levels of spermine in human urine (healthy donors, cancer patients) is reported. This assay is based on the absence of a competitive organic capping on the gold nanoparticles together with the high affinity of the amine groups of the analyte for the nanoparticle surface.
Synthesis of tritium labeled 7α-methoxycarbonyl-15β,16β-methylene-3-oxo-17α-pregn-4-ene-21, 17-carbolactone, [3H]SH-D515, a highly selective tracer f…

The synthesis of 7α-methoxycarbonyl-15β,16β-methylene-3-oxo-17α-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone (5, SH-D515, ZK 91587), a potent aldosterone antagonist exhibiting a strong and very selective binding to the mineralocorticoid receptor and the tritiated analog 6 is reported.
A Boron Dipyrromethene (BODIPY)-Based Cu(II) -Bipyridine Complex for Highly Selective NO Detection.
2015
[EN] A BODIPY-containing Cu-II-bipyridine complex for the simple selective fluorogenic detection of NO in air and in live cells is reported. The detection mechanism is based on NO-promoted Cu-II to Cu-I reduction, followed by demetallation of the complex, which results in the clearly enhanced emission of the boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) unit.
Gold(I)-Catalyzed Reactions of 1-(ortho-Alkynylaryl)ureas: Highly Selective Heterocyclization and Synthesis of MixedN,O-Acetals
2014
Treatment of alkynylureas (I) with trifluoroethanol in the presence of a Au/Ag catalytic system provides N-6-exo-dig heterocyclization products (III) and in some cases open chain acetals as side products.
A highly selective, Hg2+ triggered hydrogelation: modulation of morphology by chemical stimuli
2013
We report the first Hg(2+) selective hydrogelation by 4'-[4-(4-aminophenyl)phenyl]-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine. The gel showed remarkable response towards specific chemical agents such as benzo-18-crown-6 ether and K(+) which enabled extensive modulation of the gel morphology.
tBuLi-Mediated One-Pot Direct Highly Selective Cross-Coupling of Two Distinct Aryl Bromides.
2015
A Pd-catalyzed direct cross-coupling of two distinct aryl bromides mediated by tBuLi is described. The use of [Pd-PEPPSI-IPr] or [Pd-PEPPSI-IPent] as catalyst allows for the efficient one-pot synthesis of unsymmetrical biaryls at room temperature. The key for this selective cross-coupling is the use of an ortho-substituted bromide that undergoes lithium-halogen exchange preferentially.
Targeting of the Leishmania Mexicana cysteine protease CPB2.8 ΔCTE by decorated fused benzo[b] thiophene scaffold.
2016
A potent and highly selective anhydride-based inhibitor of Leishmania mexicana cysteine protease CPB2.8ΔCTE (IC50 = 3.7 μM) was identified. The details of the interaction of the ligand with the enzyme active site were investigated by NMR biomimetic experiments and docking studies. Results of inhibition assays, NMR and theoretical studies indicate that the ligand acts initially as a non-covalent inhibitor and later as an irreversible covalent inhibitor by chemoselective attack of CYS 25 thiolate to an anhydride carbonyl.
Dual role of silver in a fluorogenic N-squaraine probe based on Ag(i)–π interactions
2021
In the presence of Ag(I), the monoanion of cyano-N-squaraine (I) generates an intense fluorescence turn-on response. Experimental evidence and DFT calculations reveal a sequence of deprotonation-coordination events in which the Ag(I) ions play a dual role as a Lewis acid and coordinating metal. The observed effect is highly selective for Ag(I) compared to other metals.
