A simple synthesis of the title compounds, which is more than 10 steps shorter and an order of magnitude more efficient than our recent photochemical synthesis of chasmanine, is described. The main feature of the new process is a stereo- and regiospecific addition of benzyl vinyl ether to an o-quinone intermediate masked by a spirolactone group according to the method of Deslongchamps.

Abstract The acid-catalyzed addition of water to the vinyl ether double bond of aflatoxin Bx was investigated. The hemiacetal produced was biologically inactive to the chick embryo and to tissue cultures at respective concentrations 80 and 50 times the minimum lethal dose of aflatoxin B1 The structure of the hemiacetal was established and found to be identical to the hemiacetal reported as an intermediate in the total synthesis of racemic aflatoxin B1

Delivering tools for genome analysis to users is often difficult given their complex dependencies and conflicts. Container virtualization systems such as Singularity isolate environments, helping developers avoid conflicts between tools. However, they lack composability, an easy way to integrate multiple tools in different containers or multiple tools both in a container and a host, which compromises the use of container systems in genome research. Another issue is that one may not be able to use a single container system of the same version at all sites they use, which discourages the use of container systems. To this end, we present a pure rootless composable container system, LPMX, that provides composability for letting developers easily integrate tools in different existing containers or on host, allowing researchers to compose existing containers. LPMX is pure rootless, so it does not require root privilege neither during installation nor at runtime, allowing researchers to use LPMX across sites without asking permissions from administrators. LPMX provides a pure userspace layered filesystem with at least an order of magnitude lower overhead for launching a new process than existing container systems. LPMX can import Docker and Singularity images.

<div> <p>Unprotected, primary 2-azidoamines are versatile precursors to vicinal diamines, which are among the most common motifs in biologically active compounds. Herein, we report their operationally simple synthesis through an iron-catalyzed difunctionalization of alkenes. A wide array of alkene substrates are tolerated, including complex drug-like molecules and a tripeptide. Facile derivatizations of the azidoamine group demonstrate the versatility of this masked diamine motif in chemoselective, orthogonal transformations. Applications of the methodology in the concise synthesis of RO 20-1724 and in a formal total synthesis of (±)-hamacanthin B further demonstrate the broad synthetic potential of this highly functional group tolerant reaction.</p> </div>

The tacticity of vinyl polymers has a profound effect on their physical properties. Despite the well-developed stereoselective methods for the polymerization of propylene and other nonpolar α-olefins, stereoselective polymerization of polar vinyl monomers has proven more challenging. We have designed chiral counterions that systematically bias the reactivity and chain-end stereochemical environment during cationic polymerization. This approach overrides conventional chain-end stereochemical bias to achieve catalyst-controlled stereoselective polymerization. We demonstrate that this method is general to vinyl ether substrates, providing access to a range of isotactic poly(vinyl ether)s with high degrees of isotacticity. The obtained materials display the tensile properties of commercial polyolefins but adhere more strongly to polar substrates by an order of magnitude, indicating their promise for next-generation engineering applications.
