Progress on Chiral NAD(P)H Model Compounds

Abstract

NAD(P)H and NAD + have a significant role in biochemistry, and many NAD(P)H models received particular attention. Research in NADH models mainly focuses on asymmetric reduction and life sciences. Over the past few decades, a particularly large number of new chiral NAD(P)H models have appeared, and there have been significant developments in this area. We summarized advanced research in chiral NAD(P)H models in this paper. These models not only show very good performance in asymmetric reduction, but also have excellent fluorescence features. In addition, we present a discussion about some recent studies on the asymmetric reduction of NAD(P)H-dependent dehydrogenase, and we open a new door on research into NAD(P)H models. At last, some advances focused on the fluorescence phenomenon of some chiral NAD(P)H models have also been summarized.

Well‐Defined Copper(I) Fluoroalkoxide Complexes for Trifluoroethoxylation of Aryl and Heteroaryl Bromides

“…[4] Over the last few years,n umerous synthetic examples of the selective incorporation of fluorine-containing groups into organic molecules have been developed. [5][6][7][8][9] Among them, trifluoroethyl aryl ethers have attracted much attention because of the high metabolic stability and significant lipophilicity of the CF 3 CH 2 Og roup. [10,11] As ac onsequence of their various beneficial pharmacological activities,t rifluoroethyl aryl ethers are widely used by the pharmaceutical industry in many drugs and drug candidates.…”

Designed magnetic multilayer thin films fabricated via the layer‐by‐layer assembly of polycyanofullerenes

“…Pellets were pressed into 0.02‐mm‐thick films at 170°C. The HDPE substrate, polyethylene (PE)–COOH film, and 4′‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,2′:6′,2″‐terpyridine (HOPhtpy) were prepared according to the literature.…”

Design and Stereoselective Synthesis of ProM‐2: A Spirocyclic Diproline Mimetic with Polyproline Type II (PPII) Helix Conformation

“…Preparation of the second building block, that is, the 2-vinylproline derivative 12,w as achieved as shown in Scheme 3b y slightly modifying the synthesis of Bittermann and Gmeiner. [22] First, l-proline (5)w as protected by treatment with chloral [23] and the resulting cyclic N,O-acetal was formylated (lithium diisopropylamide (LDA), HCO 2 Me) to diastereoselectively [24] give the aldehyde 10 in 54 %y ield over two steps. [22] Thec onfiguration of 10 wasa gain secured by X-ray crystallography (Figure 3, left).…”
