• Indium-mediated allylation and Reformatsky reaction on glyoxylic oximes under ultrasound irradiation 

  González Soengas, Raquel María; Estévez Reino, Amalia María (Elsevier, 2012)

  A novel and more convenient method for the indium-promoted allylation of glyoxylic oximes based on the use of ultrasonic waves is reported. A similar procedure was used to develop the first example reported in the literature ...

• Remarkable antioxidant properties of a series of hydroxy-3-arylcoumarins 

  Matos, Maria João Correia Pinto Carvalho de; Pérez Cruz, Fernanda; Vázquez Rodríguez, Saleta; Uriarte Villares, Eugenio; Santana Penín, María Lourdes; Borges, Fernanda; Olea Azar, Claudio (Elsevier, 2013)

  In the present work we synthesized a series of hydroxy-3-arylcoumarins (compounds 1–9), some of them previously described as MAO-B selective inhibitors, with the aim of evaluating their antioxidant properties. Theoretical ...

• QM/MM simulations identify the determinants of catalytic activity differences between type II dehydroquinase enzymes 

  Lence Quintana, Emilio José; der Kamp, Marc W. van; González Bello, Concepción; Mulholland, Adrian J. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)

  Type II dehydroquinase enzymes (DHQ2), recognized targets for antibiotic drug discovery, show significantly different activities dependent on the species: DHQ2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MtDHQ2) and Helicobacter ...
