Herein, we describe the synthesis of molecular scaffolds consisting of medium-sized fused heterocycles using amino acids, which are some of the most useful building blocks used by nature as well as chemists to create ...

© 2018 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim Lipid droplets (LDs) have been recognized as highly dynamic cellular organelles involved in important biological functions for the survival of organisms such as supplying ...

A density functional theory (DFT) study aimed at understanding structure-reactivity relationships in the oxidized metabolites of cyclopenta-fused polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (CP-PAHs) is reported. Epoxidation at various ...

The regioselective [2+2] cycloaddition of a substituted benzyne possessing a fused four-membered ring to a ketene acetal has been theoretically studied. This cycloaddition presents a two-step mechanism that is initiated ...

This report describes a configuration-dependent [6 + 8 + 5] fused ring formation via a tandem cyclic N-acyliminium nucleophilic addition reaction. Cyclization of the acyclic precursor prepared on a solid phase using l-Ser ...

In the title compound, C(22)H(14)N(2)O(2), the five rings of the molecule are not coplanar. There is a significant twist between the four fused rings, which have a slightly arched conformation, and the pendant aromatic ...
