Indole- and Pyrrole-BX: Bench-Stable Hypervalent Iodine Reagents for Heterocycle Umpolung

Jérôme Waser, Stefano Nicolai, Paola Caramenti

The one-step synthesis of the bench-stable hypervalent iodine reagents IndoleBX and PyrroleBX using mild Lewis acid catalyzed conditions is reported. The new reagents are stable up to 150 degrees C and were applied in the C-H arylation of unactivated arene ...

Catalytic supercritical water gasification: Interaction of sulfur with ZnO and the ruthenium catalyst

Christian Ludwig, Frédéric Vogel, Gaël Peng

Continuous catalytic supercritical water gasification (CSCWG; 400 degrees C, 28 MPa) of microalgal biomass (Chlorella vulgaris) was carried out at the microalgae production site of ZHAW in Wadenswil (Switzerland) non-stop over a period of 100 h. Characteri ...

New Class of Half-Sandwich Ruthenium(II) Arene Complexes Bearing the Water-Soluble CAP Ligand as an in Vitro Anticancer Agent

Paul Joseph Dyson, Tina Riedel

Ruthenium(II) arene complexes of 1,4,7-triaza-9-phosphatricyclo[5.3.2.1]tridecane (CAP) were obtained. Cytotoxicity studies against cancer cell lines reveal higher activity than the corresponding PTA analogues and, in comparison to the effects on noncancer ...

Combination of ruthenium(II)-arene complex [Ru(eta(6)-p-cymene)Cl-2(pta)] (RAPTA-C) and the epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor erlotinib results in efficient angiostatic and antitumor activity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Ume-Gulsoom Abdul, Patrick Meraldi

Ruthenium-based compounds show strong potential as anti-cancer drugs and are being investigated as alternatives to other well-established metal-based chemotherapeutics. The organometallic compound [Ru(eta(6)-p-cymene) Cl-2(pta)], where pta = 1,3,5-triaza-7 ...

Ruthenium complexes, in particular cyclopentadienyl ruthenium (II) derivatives, catalyze a vast number of transformations in the field of homogenous catalysis. Herein we describe the first synthesis of efficient chiral cationic cyclopentadienyl ruthenium ( ...

Schweizerische Chemische Gesellschaft2017

A unique, dual-function, photoactivatable anticancer prodrug, RuEuL, has been tailored that features a ruthenium(II) complex linked to a cyclen-europium chelate via a pi-conjugated bridge. Under irradiation at 488 nm, the dark-inactive prodrug undergoes ph ...

Differential Cytotoxicity, Cellular Uptake, Apoptosis and Inhibition of BRCA1 Expression of BRCA1-Defective and Sporadic Breast Cancer Cells Induced by an Anticancer Ruthenium(II)-Arene Compound, RAPTA-EA1

Paul Joseph Dyson

Background: The RAPTA-EA1 complex [ruthenium(II)-arene 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (pta) complex with an arene-tethered ethacrynic acid ligand] has been reported to overcome drug resistance that developed due to the current use of platinum-based treat ...

Base-Free Transfer Hydrogenation with an Ionic-Liquid-Supported Ruthenium eta(6)-Arene Bis(pyrazolyl)methane Catalyst

Paul Joseph Dyson, Francisco Sepulveda, Andrew Douglas Phillips

Ruthenium complexes of the type [RuCl(eta(6)-arene)-(NN)]X (X = BF4 or BPh4) featuring an eta(6)-arene ligand modified with an imidazolium ring and incorporating the bis(azo) chelating (NN) ligands 2-hydroxyphenylbis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl) methane or 2- ...

Low-Dose Prostate Cancer Brachytherapy with Radioactive Palladium-Gold Nanoparticles

Marc-André Fortin

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the leading causes of death among men. Low-dose brachytherapy is an increasingly used treatment for PCa, which requires the implantation of tens of radioactive seeds. This treatment causes discomfort; these implants cannot b ...

Highly Acidic Ambient Particles, Soluble Metals, and Oxidative Potential: A Link between Sulfate and Aerosol Toxicity

Athanasios Nenes, Hairun Guo

Soluble transition metals in particulate matter (PM) can generate reactive oxygen species in vivo by redox cycling, leading to oxidative stress and adverse health effects. Most metals, such as those from roadway traffic, are emitted in an insoluble form, b ...
