Venue: |
TRC Auditorium (2nd Floor) |
Details: |
With a goal to prepare chemically robust, modified cysteines, a new methodology for S-arylation of cysteine has been developed using arenediazonium salts as the aryl donor. The methodology which doesn’t require any catalyst or additive, is based on SRN reaction of arenediazonium salts and is particularly attractive due to its biocompatible operational simplicity and high residue selectivity over other amino acids. |
