Conspectus The development of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling methods for the
activation of C (sp2)–Br bonds facilitated access to arene-rich molecules, enabling a …

The proportion of approved chiral drugs and drug candidates under medical studies has
surged dramatically over the past two decades. As a consequence, the efficient synthesis of …

The applications of fluorine in drug design continue to expand, facilitated by an improved
understanding of its effects on physicochemical properties and the development of synthetic …

The application of microbes to valorize aromatic compounds derived from the abundant
plant biopolymer lignin is a rapidly developing area of research that may ultimately enable …

Lignin is the most abundant source of renewable aromatic biopolymers and its valorization
presents significant value for biorefinery sustainability, which promotes the utilization of …

We report an iron‐catalyzed decarboxylative C (sp3)− O bond‐forming reaction under mild,
base‐free conditions with visible light irradiation. The transformation uses readily available …

Vitamins are crucial components in the diet of animals and many other living organisms.
One of these essential nutrients, thiamin, is known to be involved in several cell functions …

Conspectus One of the fundamental goals of chemists is to develop highly efficient methods
for producing optically active compounds, given their wide range of applications in …

In this review we analyse structure/sequence–function relationships for the superfamily of
PLP-dependent enzymes with special emphasis on class III transaminases. Amine …

The bacterial ubiD and ubiX or the homologous fungal fdc1 and pad1 genes have been
implicated in the non-oxidative reversible decarboxylation of aromatic substrates, and play a …
