This thesis is divided in seven main chapters including an introduction about the state of the art in the field, four main chapters describing the main part of the work, a short insight on the implications of the presented results for other research projec ...
The mechanism of the reaction between the complex [Re(OH)(CO)(3)(N2C2H4)] and azetidin-2-one or 3-formylamino-N-sulf onatoazetidin-2-one was investigated by using the B3LYP density functional theory methodology in conjunction with the PCM-UAHF model to tak ...
Copper-catalyzed coupling of ortho-aminophenylboronic acid pinacol esters with β-ketoesters afforded, under mild base-free oxidative conditions, 2,3-disubstituted indoles featuring a key Chan-Lam type carbon-carbon bond forming reaction. ...
Herein, we report a detailed study on the electrophilic alkynylation of cyclic keto esters and amides with ethynylbenziodoxolone (EBX) reagents. The structure and stability of this class of reagents is first described more in details. Differential scanning ...

We report on the characteristics of the radical-ion-driven dissociation of a diverse array of beta-amino acids incorporated into alpha-peptides, as probed by tandem electron-capture and electron-transfer dissociation (ECD/ETD) mass spectrometry. The report ...

A new macrocyclic ligand, L3, has been synthesised, based on the cyclen framework grafted with three phenacyl light-harvesting groups and a C5-alkyl chain bearing a carboxylic acid function as a potential linker for biological material. Acidity constant ...
We present a versatile scheme to rationally modulate the hydrolysis rate of ester bonds in hydrophilic polymer networks via adjacent charged amino acids. As soluble model systems, two cysteine-bearing oligopeptides containing either positively charged argi ...
Computations on the reaction of azetidin-2-one, N-sulfonate azetidin-2-one, and 3-formylamine-N-sulfonate azetidin-2-one with [Mo(OH)(eta(3)-C3H5)(CO) 2(N2C2H4)] were performed at the B3LYP/6-31 + G(d,p) (LANL2DZ for Mo augmented by f polarization function ...
Cyclodepsipeptides incorporating a sugar amino acid, e.g., I, have been synthesized. A three-component reaction of a sugar amino acid (SAA) deriv., an aldehyde, and a dipeptide isonitrile in refluxing methanol afforded the corresponding 5-aminooxazole whic ...
L-lysine is an essential a-amino acid and a necessary building block for all proteins in the body. As an essential amino acid, L-lysine is not synthesized by humans or animals. Industrially produced L-lysine has therefore a big market as food additive, e.g ...
