To facilitate solar‐driven overall CO2 and H2O convsersion into fuels and O2, a series of
covalent microporous polymers derived from Tröger's base are synthesized featuring …

An organic nanoporous polymer (BET surface area of 750 m2 g− 1) containing bicovalently-

In 2012 we celebrate the 125th anniversary of the unique molecule Tröger's base (TB), first
synthesized by Julius Tröger in 1887. Being a V‐shaped C2‐symmetric chiral molecule, it …

Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is a promising target for the treatment of later stage cognitive
decline in Alzheimer's disease. A set of pseudo-irreversible BChE inhibitors with high …

Trįger s base is a well-known chiral molecule with a few unusual structural features. The
chemistry of Trįger s base analogues has been greatly developed over the last 20 years …

Nitrogen stereocenters are common chiral units in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and
chiral catalysts. However, their research has lagged largely behind, compared with carbon …
