News Chemical Synthesis

• Researchers develop sustainable catalysis process
  

  Acetals are important chemical compounds that are used, for example, in the production of certain medical agents. A new method now makes their synthesis easier and more environmentally friendly. Chemists at the University of Bonn have developed and optimized the sustainable catalytic process. State- more

• New procedure will reduce the need for rare metals in chemical synthesis
  

  Pharmaceuticals, plastics, and many other chemical products have transformed human life. To prepare these products, chemists often use a catalyst--frequently based on rare metals--at various points in their syntheses. Although rare-metal catalysts are incredibly useful, their limited supply means th more

• Novel computer-assisted chemical synthesis method cuts research time and cost
  

  Hokkaido University scientists have succeeded in synthesizing an α,α-difluoroglycine derivative, a type of α-amino acid, based on a reaction path predicted by quantum chemical calculations. This novel method, combining experimental chemistry and computational chemistry, could innovate the developmen more

Publications Chemical Synthesis

• The discovery of a freezing-induced peptide ligation during the total chemical synthesis of human interferon-ε

  A counterintuitive freezing-induced peptide ligation was discovered in the total synthesis of human interferon-ε (hIFN-ε) which blocks HIV infection through unique mechanisms. The successful synthesis of hIFN-ε (187 amino acids) in this research laid the foundation for related anti-AIDS drug develop more

• Synthesis of Hydrophobic Insulin-based Peptides Using a Helping-Hand Strategy

  The introduction of solid-phase peptide synthesis in the 1960’s improved the chemical synthesis of both the A- and B-chains of insulin and insulin analogs. However, the subsequent elaboration of the synthetic peptides to generate active hormones continues to be difficult and complex due in part to t more

• Plant extracts as green reductants for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles: Lessons from chemical synthesis

  The increasing use of silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) in daily-life applications, elec-tronics, or catalysis calls for green and cost-efficient synthetic methods. Ag NPs are used especially in biomedicine because of their antibacterial, antifungal or anticancer properties. The chemical synthesis all more
