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 -
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 -
Direct Construction of Acid-Responsive Poly(indolone)s through...
University of AucklandMulticomponent polymerizations (MCPs) as a burgeoning field in polymer chemistry has proved to be a powerful and popular tool for the synthesis of functional polymer materials with diverse and complex structures. To explore the general applicability of MCPs and enrich the product structures of MCPs, multicomponent tandem polymerizations (MCTPs) with great...Created 16 May 2019 • Updated 16 May 2019 -

XL-Xantphos: Design and Synthesis of a Mechanistic Probe of Xantphos...
University of AucklandThe synthesis and characterization of an analog of the Xantphos ligand that is geometrically incapable of coordination of the xanthene bridging oxygen atom is reported. This new ligand, XL-Xantphos, ((9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-4,5-diyl)bis(4,1-phenylene))bis(diphenylphosphane), was studied in homogeneous, catalytic reactions for comparison with...Created 16 May 2019 • Updated 16 May 2019 -
Self-Assembling 2D Arrays with <i>de Novo</i> Protein Building Blocks
University of AucklandModular self-assembly of biomolecules in two dimensions (2D) is straightforward with DNA but has been difficult to realize with proteins, due to the lack of modular specificity similar to Watson–Crick base pairing. Here we describe a general approach to design 2D arrays using de novo designed pseudosymmetric protein building blocks. A homodimeric helical...Created 16 May 2019 • Updated 16 May 2019 -
Multi-Enzymatic Limited Digestion: The Next-Generation Sequencing for Proteomics?
University of AucklandOver the past 40 years, proteomics, generically defined as the field dedicated to the identification and analysis of proteins, has tremendously gained in popularity and potency through advancements in genome sequencing, separative techniques, mass spectrometry, and bioinformatics algorithms. As a consequence, its scope of application has gradually...Created 16 May 2019 • Updated 16 May 2019 -
Structure Property Analysis of the Solution and Solid-State Properties of...
University of AucklandThe development of new photochromic compounds and the optimization of their photophysical and switching properties are prerequisites for accessing new functions and opportunities that are not possible with currently available systems. To this end we recently developed a new bistable hydrazone switch that undergoes efficient photoswitching and emission...Created 16 May 2019 • Updated 16 May 2019 -
