A new SOD mimic, Mn(III) ortho N-butoxyethylpyridylporphyrin, combines superb potency and lipophilicity with low toxicity.
(Free radical biology & medicine, 2012-05)The Mn porphyrins of k(cat)(O(2)(.-)) as high as that of a superoxide dismutase enzyme and of optimized lipophilicity have already been synthesized. Their exceptional in vivo potency is at least in part due to their ability ... -
Analyzing site selectivity in Rh2(esp)2-catalyzed intermolecular C-H amination reactions.
(J Am Chem Soc, 2014-04-16)Predicting site selectivity in C-H bond oxidation reactions involving heteroatom transfer is challenged by the small energetic differences between disparate bond types and the subtle interplay of steric and electronic effects ... -
Comprehensive pharmacokinetic studies and oral bioavailability of two Mn porphyrin-based SOD mimics, MnTE-2-PyP5+ and MnTnHex-2-PyP5+.
(Free radical biology & medicine, 2013-05)The cationic, ortho Mn(III) N-alkylpyridylporphyrins (alkyl=ethyl, E, and n-hexyl, nHex) MnTE-2-PyP(5+) (AEOL10113, FBC-007) and MnTnHex-2-PyP(5+) have proven efficacious in numerous in vivo animal models of diseases having ... -
Elucidating solvent contributions to solution reactions with ab initio QM/MM methods.
(J Phys Chem B, 2010-03-04)Computer simulations of reaction processes in solution in general rely on the definition of a reaction coordinate and the determination of the thermodynamic changes of the system along the reaction coordinate. The reaction ... -
HRP-mediated polymerization forms tough nanocomposite hydrogels with high biocatalytic performance.
(Chemical communications (Cambridge, England), 2013-09)This communication describes the mild and quick construction of tough nanocomposite hydrogels via a horseradish peroxidase-mediated radical polymerization for effectively immobilizing enzymes to attain high catalytic performance ... -
Inkless microcontact printing on SAMs of Boc- and TBS-protected thiols.
(Nano Lett, 2010-01)We report a new inkless catalytic muCP technique that achieves accurate, fast, and complete pattern reproduction on SAMs of Boc- and TBS-protected thiols immobilized on gold using a polyurethane-acrylate stamp functionalized ... -
Platinum(II)-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamination of monosubstituted allenes with secondary alkylamines.
(Chem Commun (Camb), 2010-03-14)A 1:1 mixture of (dppf)PtCl(2) and AgOTf (5 mol%) catalyzed the intermolecular hydroamination of monosubstituted allenes with secondary alkylamines at 80 degrees C to form allylic amines in good yield with selective formation ... -
Understanding Active Sites in Plasmonic Enhanced Catalysis
(2020)Catalysts are essential in producing chemicals and materials that support the global economy, but the standard catalytic process consumes vast resources to meet this demand. It has now been shown that significant portions ... -
Utilization of Nano-Catalysts for Green Electric Power Generation
(2015)Nano-structures were investigated for the advancement of energy conversion technology because of their enhanced catalytic, thermal, and physiochemical interfacial properties and increased solar absorption. Hydrogen is a ...
