Facet Engineering in Constructing Lewis Acid-Base Pairs for CO2 Cycloaddition to High Value-Added Carbonates by Shu Shang, Wei Shao, Xiao Luo, Ming Zuo, Hui Wang, Xiaodong Zhang, Yi Xie

“…Herein, by taking BiOX (X=Cl, Br) with layered structure for example, we proposed a facet engineering strategy to construct Lewis acid-base pairs for CO2 cycloaddition, where the typical BiOBr with (010) facets expose surface Lewis acid Bi sites and Lewis base Br sites simultaneously. …”

CG base pair recognition within DNA triple helices by modified N-methylpyrrolo-dC nucleosides. by Gerrard, SR, Edrees, M, Bouamaied, I, Fox, K, Brown, T

“…3-Aminophenyl-modified analogues of the bicyclic nucleoside N-methyl-3H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2(7H)-one were synthesised and incorporated directly into triplex-forming oligonucleotides in order to utilise their extended hydrogen bonding motif for recognition of the CG base pair. All analogues demonstrated strong binding affinity and very good selectivity for CG from pH 6.2 to 7.0; a marked improvement on previous modifications.…”
