Skeletal Modification of Tryptophan Using Cyclic Diaryliodonium Salts via Palladium-Catalyzed Cascade π-Extended Annulative Dual C2–H/N–H Arylation

Abstract We have demonstrated an efficient Pd-catalyzed annulative dual C2–H/N–H arylation reaction involving modification of the tryptophan indole skeleton to phenanthridinyl indole. This is an operationally simple and ligand-free strategy that was extended to biologically impor...

Scaling behavior of the fractional Maxwell model parameters for semidilute entangled polymer solutions and its application for predicting linear viscoelastic properties

We report that the parameters of the fractional Maxwell model (FMM) for semidilute entangled polymer solutions can be superimposed onto master curves by applying the scaling rules of the correlation blob theory. The FMM is parametrized by four terms—the quasimoduli parameters V a...

Revolutionizing pest detection in agriculture using artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, machine and deep learning approaches

Insect infestations cause major crop losses and often drive excessive pesticide use. Traditional detection methods remain slow, labour-intensive, and subject to human error, limiting timely intervention. Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT)...

Mass Spectral Investigation of Carbamates Using EI and CI Techniques

ABSTRACT N , N ‐Dialkyl pyridin‐3‐yl dimethylcarbamates (carbamates) are important precursor or degradation products of CWAs, including carbamate nerve agents (CMNAs). Therefore, the detection and identification of these carbamates are essential for the verification of CWC‐relate...

Elucidating the role of noble metals in Ag- and Pd-modified TiO2 visible-light photocatalysts: Theoretical validation of experimental evidence

A combined experimental–theoretical understanding of the noble metal-modified TiO 2 photocatalysis for environmental remediation remains relatively unexplored. This study investigates the influence of silver (Ag) and palladium (Pd) modifications on the visible-light photocatalyti...

ToxicityStudy of Therapeutically Active Copper NitroprussideAnalogue Nanoparticles: An In Vitro and In Vivo Approaches

Abstract Copper-based nanomedicines have broader applications in the biomedical sector because of their unique fundamental properties. Very recently, our group has designed and synthesized new copper nitroprusside analogue nanoparticles (CuNPANP in vitro and in vivo) anticancer t...

Vinylogous Mannich Cyclization for the Stereoselective Construction of trans ‐2‐Alkenyl‐3‐Aminophenyl‐Dihydrobenzofuran and ‐Dihydroindole Derivatives

In this study, we have established a base‐mediated intramolecular vinylogous Mannich reaction, providing a straightforward approach for constructing structurally diverse dihydrobenzofuran and dihydroindole frameworks, which are commonly found in biologically active compounds. Pre...
