  1. 1. A novel approach for functionalising and separating Tröger's Base Analogues

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Emil Jakobsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Tröger s Base; Synthesis; Chromatography; Supramolecular chemistry; Diastereomers; Organic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Tröger’s Base (TB) is a bicyclic compound containing a methanodiazocine group between two aromatic rings. The methylene bridge forces the molecule to have a bent formation; thus, the aromatic rings are close to 90 degrees relative to each other, resulting in a rigid concave aromatic cavity. READ MORE

  2. 2. Exploring Regioselective 5N-acylation of Neuraminic acid

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simon Hans Lilje; [2022]
    Keywords : acylation; amide; antibacterial drugs; regioselective deprotection; sialic acid; organic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : In this project, a regioselective method to deprotect and acylate the amide on C5 of sialic acid is explored. Sialic acid is one of the most complex monosaccharides and is an important ligand in many higher organisms in intercellular cell communication. The most prominent example is related to the immune system. READ MORE

  3. 3. Determining the Reaction Mechanism of Hydrolysis of p-Nitrophenyl Butyrate Performed by a Cold-Adapted Lipase, BplA : Finding the Rate-Limiting Step

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och bioinformatik

    Author : Linn Svalberg; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Lipases are one of the most important biocatalysts for biotechnological applications. They have high importance since lipases have a catalytic activity that is related to their hydrolysis and synthesis reactions to high regioselectivity and enantioselectivity. They also have an activity over a wide range of temperature, pH, and diverse substrates. READ MORE
