Application

3-Butenoic acid was used in the synthesis of polyethylene glycolated boltorn coatings. It was used to study the inhibition of the enzyme-catalysed conversion of D-tyrosyl- phenylalanyl-glycine to D-tyrosyl-phenylaline amide by non-peptide carboxylic acids. It was used in preparation of strained nitroso Diels-Aldrer adducts which undergo a domino ROC metathesis in the presence of Ru-carbene catalysts and olefins.

[reaction: see text] Strained bicyclic 3,6-dihydro-1,2-oxazine is a reactive substrate in domino metathesis with an external alkene. This general transformation leads to isoxazolo[2,3-a]pyridin-7-one, a versatile scaffold combining chemical functions that could be selectively oxidized or reduced. The synthetic relevance of

Variant G74C of arylmalonate decarboxylase (AMDase) from Bordatella bronchoseptica has a unique racemising activity towards profens. By protein engineering, variant G74C/V43A with a 20-fold shift towards promiscuous racemisation was obtained, based on a reduced activity in the decarboxylation reaction and
