TL;DR: New peptide nucleic acid (PNA) based probes are described in which the intercalator dye thiazole orange (TO) serves as a base surrogate, and the emission of TO‐containing PNA probes is attenuated when forced to intercalate next to a mismatched base pair.
Abstract: Fluorescent base analogues in DNA are versatile probes of nucleic acid-nucleic acid and nucleic acid-protein interactions. New peptide nucleic acid (PNA) based probes are described in which the intercalator dye thiazole orange (TO) serves as a base surrogate. The investigation of six TO derivatives revealed that the linker length and the conjugation site decided whether a base surrogate conveys sequence-selective DNA binding and whether fluorescence is increased or decreased upon single-mismatched hybridization. One TO derivative conferred universal PNA-DNA base pairing while maintaining duplex stability and hybridization selectivity. TO fluorescence increased up to 26-fold upon hybridization. In contrast to most other probes, in which fluorescence is invariant once hybridization had occurred, the emission of TO-containing PNA probes is attenuated when forced to intercalate next to a mismatched base pair. The specificity of DNA detection is therefore not limited by the selectivity of probe-target binding and a DNA target can be distinguished from its single-base mutant under nonstringent hybridization conditions. This property should be of advantage for real-time quantitative PCR and nucleic acid detection within living cells.

TL;DR: Palladium catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of halobenzenes including chlorobenzees with phenylboronic acid have been achieved at ambient temperature in the absence of a phosphine ligand using the ionic liquid 1,3-di-n-butylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate with methanol as co-solvent under ultrasonic irradiation.

TL;DR: The reaction of o-phenylenediamines with both acyclic and cyclic ketones in the ionic liquid 1,3-di-n-butylimidazolium bromide afforded 1,5-benzodiazepines in excellent isolated yields in the absence of a catalyst at ambient temperature as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the condensation reaction of 4-oxo-(4H)-1-benzopyran-3-carbaldehydes and of aromatic aldehydes with 3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazolin-5-4H-one were carried out in an ionic liquid, ethylammonium nitrate, at room temperature in shorter times with higher yields of 78−92 and 70−75%, respectively, than found using conventional procedures.

TL;DR: The use of d-ornithine rather than aminoethylglycine as the PNA backbone increases the intensity of fluorescence emitted by matched probe-target duplexes while specificity offluorescence signaling under nonstringent conditions is also increased.

TL;DR: A wide array of forms of palladium has been utilized as precatalysts for Heck and Suzuki coupling reactions over the last 15 years as mentioned in this paper, and there are now many suggestions in the literature that narrow the scope of types of precatalyst that may be considered true catalysts in these coupling reactions.
Abstract: A wide array of forms of palladium has been utilized as precatalysts for Heck and Suzuki coupling reactions over the last 15 years. Historically, nearly every form of palladium used has been described as the active catalytic species. However, recent research has begun to shed light on the in situ transformations that many palladium precatalysts undergo during and before the catalytic reaction, and there are now many suggestions in the literature that narrow the scope of types of palladium that may be considered true “catalysts” in these coupling reactions. In this work, for each type of precatalyst, the recent literature is summarized and the type(s) of palladium that are proposed to be truly active are enumerated. All forms of palladium, including discrete soluble palladium complexes, solid-supported metal ligand complexes, supported palladium nano- and macroparticles, soluble palladium nanoparticles, soluble ligand-free palladium, and palladium-exchanged oxides are considered and reviewed here. A considerable focus is placed on solid precatalysts and on evidence for and against catalysis by solid surfaces vs. soluble species when starting with various precatalysts. The review closes with a critical overview of various control experiments or tests that have been used by authors to assess the homogeneity or heterogeneity of catalyst systems.

TL;DR: This critical review is aimed at discussing the present status of cavitational chemistry and some of the underlying phenomena, and to highlight some recent applications and trends in organic sonochemistry, especially in combination with other sustainable technologies.
Abstract: Ultrasound, an efficient and virtually innocuous means of activation in synthetic chemistry, has been employed for decades with varied success. Not only can this high-energy input enhance mechanical effects in heterogeneous processes, but it is also known to induce new reactivities leading to the formation of unexpected chemical species. What makes sonochemistry unique is the remarkable phenomenon of cavitation, currently the subject of intense research which has already yielded thought-provoking results. This critical review is aimed at discussing the present status of cavitational chemistry and some of the underlying phenomena, and to highlight some recent applications and trends in organic sonochemistry, especially in combination with other sustainable technologies.
