Electrochemical synthesis of benzofuroxan: role of electrogenerated iodonium ion in the intramolecular cyclization of 2-nitroaniline

Unexpected high robustness of electrochemical cross-coupling for a broad range of current density

“…At the same time, the need for robust electrochemical reaction conditions is clear from the number of strategies that has been developed in an attempt to realize high current electrolysis. The main approaches are the use of macroporous electrodes to maximize the available electrode surface (9)(10)(11)(12)(13), electrolysis in biphasic systems (14,15), and utilization of mediating systems in equimolar quantity (16). Each of these strategies has its own drawbacks, mostly related to their unpredictable scalability, insufficient effectiveness, or high substrate specificity.…”

Stereoselective Synthesis of <i>cis</i>-Substituted-3’-anilino-2’, 3’-dihydro-4-2’-benzo[<i>b</i>]furanylcoumarins via Intramolecular Aldol Reactions

“…The new synthetic methods have been extensively investigated [13][14][15][16][17][18]. Inter and intra-molecular cyclisation reactions play an important role in the construction of dihydrobenzofurans.…”

Evidence that the capsule around mycobacteria grown in axenic media contains mycobacterial antigens: implications at the level of cell envelope architecture

“…It has been widely documented that pathogenic mycobacteria inside host rnacrophages are surrounded by an electron-transparent zone (ETZ), which is one of the major ha,:,,-'ial defence mechanisms against host microbicidal mechanisms [!,2]. The mycobacterial ETZ has been reported to impair the diffusion of lysosomal enzymes [3]. We earlier gave 3 possible explanations for the existence of ETZ: (a) it is a bacterial structure present even before phagocytosis; (h) it is formed actively by the bacteria during intracellular multiplication; (c) it is a specific host response to pathogenic m.ycobacteria f.4].…”
