Mechanistic Studies on the Nickel-Catalyzed Cyclopropanation with...
University of AucklandWe report here our mechanistic study of the previously published nickel-catalyzed cyclopropanation reaction using lithiomethyltrimethylammonium triflate as methylene donor. The cyclopropane yield is highly dependent on the olefin substrate and correlates well with the binding affinity of the olefin to Ni(0) as established elsewhere. On the basis of this...Created 16 May 2019 • Updated 16 May 2019 -
Identification of the retinoschisin-binding site on the retinal Na/K-ATPase
University of AucklandX-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS) is a hereditary retinal dystrophy, caused by mutations in the RS1 gene which encodes the secreted protein retinoschisin. In recent years, several molecules have been proposed to interact with retinoschisin, including the retinal Na/K-ATPase, L-voltage gated Ca2+ channels, and specific sugars. We recently showed that...Created 16 May 2019 • Updated 16 May 2019 -

Formal [2 + 2 + 2] Cycloaddition Reaction of a Metal–Carbyne Complex with...
University of AucklandAlthough alkynes have been extensively exploited in [2 + 2 + 2] cycloadditions with nitriles to form N-heterocyclic aromatics, the “alkyne-like” metal–carbon triple bond has never been used in [2 + 2 + 2] cycloadditions with nitriles. We demonstrate the synthesis of the first metallapyrazine through [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of a metal–carbyne...Created 16 May 2019 • Updated 16 May 2019 -
