https://www.selleckchem.com/products/LBH-589.html A chemoselective and diastereoselective synthesis of fused oxazolidines was achieved by a three-component cascade reaction of tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs), α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, and diethyl 2-oxomalonate. Probably due to the reactivity difference between the aldehyde and the ketone, the reaction proceeded through the condensation of THIQs with α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the generated azomethine ylide intermediate with 2-oxomalonate. The key features are easily available starting materials, mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, and high chemo- and diastereoselectivity.The one- and two-electron oxidation reactions of tetrathiolated di-tert-butylpyrene compound 1 with NO[Al(ORF)4] (ORF = OC(CF3)3) resulted in radical cation salt 1•+[Al(ORF)4]- and diradical dication salt 12+••·2[Al(ORF)4]-, respectively. Both salts were isolated as stable crystals and investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, EPR spectroscopy, SQUID measurements, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The electron spin density is delocalized on one single sulfur-doped ring in 1•+ and on both sulfur-doped rings in 12+••. The diradical dication 12+•• features a robust triplet ground state, representing the first example of a high-spin sulfur-hydrocarbon diradical.Here we show that a solvent-exposed f-position (i.e., residue 14) within a well-characterized trimeric helix bundle can facilitate a stabilizing long-range synergistic interaction involving b-position Glu10 (i.e., i - 4 relative to residue 14) and c-position Lys18 (i.e., i + 4), depending the identity of residue 14. The extent of stabilization associated with the Glu10-Lys18 pair depends primarily on the presence of a side-chain hydrogen-bond donor at residue 14; the nonpolar or hydrophobic character of residue 14 plays a smaller but still significant role. Crystal structures and molecular dynamics simulations indicate that Glu10 and Lys18 do not inter
