Recent Developments in the Synthesis and Reactivity of Isoxazoles: Metal Catalysis and Beyond
Feng Hu,Michal Szostak +1 more
TL;DR: Isoxazoles are important five-membered aromatic heterocycles in organic chemistry and many exciting advances in the synthesis and functionalization of isoxazoles have been reported as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silver-catalyzed decarboxylative trifluoromethylthiolation of aliphatic carboxylic acids in aqueous emulsion.
TL;DR: It was proposed that the radical, generated from the silver-catalyzed decarboxylation in the "oil-in-water" droplets, could easily react with the trifluoromethylthiolating reagent to form the product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene-Catalyzed Direct Friedel-Crafts Alkylation Reactions: Mechanism, Selectivity, and Synthetic Utility.
Feng Hu,Mehulkumar Patel,Feixiang Luo,Carol R. Flach,Richard Mendelsohn,Eric Garfunkel,Huixin He,Michal Szostak +7 more
TL;DR: This work reports the first general strategy for alkylation of arenes with styrenes and alcohols catalyzed by carbon-based materials, exploiting the unique property of graphenes to produce valuable diarylalkane products in high yields and excellent regioselectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arctigenin, a natural compound, activates AMP-activated protein kinase via inhibition of mitochondria complex I and ameliorates metabolic disorders in ob/ob mice.
Suling Huang,Ruitao Yu,Jian Gong,Ying Feng,Y.-L. Dai,Feng Hu,Youhong Hu,Yanduo Tao,Ying Leng +8 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates a new role for arctigenin as a potent indirect activator of AMPK via inhibition of respiratory complex I, with beneficial effects on metabolic disorders in ob/ob mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural Characterization of N‐Alkylated Twisted Amides: Consequences for Amide Bond Resonance and N−C Cleavage
TL;DR: This study provides the first experimental evidence that N-alkylation results in a dramatic increase of non-planarity around the amide N-C(O) bond, and demonstrates the lack of n(N) to π*(C=O) conjugation.
