Gas-liquid flow hydrogenation of nitroarenes: Efficient access to a pharmaceutically relevant pyrrolobenzo[1,4]diazepine scaffold (2018)
Journal Article
Dimitriou, E., Jones, R., Pritchard, R., Miller, G., & O'Brien, M. (2018). Gas-liquid flow hydrogenation of nitroarenes: Efficient access to a pharmaceutically relevant pyrrolobenzo[1,4]diazepine scaffold. Tetrahedron, 74(47), 6795-6803. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tet.2018.09.025

Using a Tube-in-Tube device based on the amorphous Teflon AF-2400 fluoropolymer, a series of nitroarenes was hydrogenated to afford the corresponding aniline compounds. The system was then applied to the construction of a pyrrolobenzo[1,4]diazapene s...

Recent advances in the enzymatic synthesis of sugar-nucleotides using nucleotidylyltransferases and glycosyltransferases (2018)
Journal Article
Ahmadipour, S., Beswick, L., & Miller, G. (2018). Recent advances in the enzymatic synthesis of sugar-nucleotides using nucleotidylyltransferases and glycosyltransferases. Carbohydrate Research, 469, 38 - 47. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carres.2018.09.002

Sugar-nucleotides are imperative to carbohydrate metabolism and glycoconjugate biosynthesis. Enzymatic methods to access these key materials offer a powerful alternative to traditional chemical synthesis routes. Herein we review recent advances in th...

D-Glucosamine, and derivatives thereof, are found in many biologically important saccharides, including glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), and in various classes of oligosaccharides. Glucosamines can also serve as useful chirons. Consequently, synthetic deri...
