Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient functionalization of aromatic C-H bonds catalyzed by gold(III) under mild and solvent-free conditions.
Zhangjie Shi,Chuan He +1 more
TL;DR: A gold(III)-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond formation reaction between arenes and electron-deficient alkynes or alkenes is described and efficient preparation of various coumarins from aryl alkynoates was demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A small molecule enhances RNA interference and promotes microRNA processing
Ge Shan,Yujing Li,Junliang Zhang,Wendi Li,Keith E. Szulwach,Ranhui Duan,Mohammad Ali Faghihi,Ahmad M. Khalil,Lianghua Lu,Zain Paroo,Anthony W.S. Chan,Zhangjie Shi,Qinghua Liu,Claes Wahlestedt,Chuan He,Peng Jin +15 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the RNAi pathway can be modulated intracellularly by small molecules, and it is shown that the small-molecule enoxacin (Penetrex) enhances siRNA-mediated mRNA degradation and promotes the biogenesis of endogenous miRNAs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intramolecular Additions of Alcohols and Carboxylic Acids to Inert Olefins Catalyzed by Silver(I) Triflate
TL;DR: Good to excellent yields can be obtained for a range of substrates under relatively mild conditions in this reaction, which represents one of the simplest methods to construct cyclic ethers or lactones.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Au-catalyzed cyclialkylation of electron-rich arenes with epoxides to prepare 3-chromanols.
Zhangjie Shi,Chuan He +1 more
TL;DR: A gold-catalyzed cyclialkylation of electron-rich arenes with tethered epoxides afforded 3-chromanols stereospecifically.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Functionalization of Arenes by Primary Alcohol Sulfonate Esters Catalyzed by Gold(III)
Zhangjie Shi,Chuan He +1 more
TL;DR: Alkylation of arenes by primary alcoholtriflate or methanesulfonate esters can be efficiently catalyzed by AuCl3 with silver triflate.
