In a recent study we discovered that a ring-fused 2-pyridone compound triggered fibrillization of a key protein in Parkinson's disease, α-synuclein. To reveal how variations in compound structure affect protein aggregation, we now prepared a number of strategic analogs and

Studies of the gas phase structures of biomolecules provide an important connection to theoretical methods for modeling large molecular structures. The key features of biomolecule structures, such as their conformational flexibility and the complexes they form through intermolecular interactions, pose

3-Substituted 2-pyridones were enantioselectively (68-90% ee) converted into the respective 3-hydroxypyridine-2,6-diones by a sequence consisting of a template-mediated type II photooxygenation and an acid-catalysed rearrangement.

Nonbiaryl axially chiral 2-pyridones were synthesized and employed for light-induced electrocyclic 4π ring closure leading to bicyclo-β-lactam photoproducts in solution. The enantioselectivity in the photoproducts varied from 22 to 95% depending on the reaction temperature and the ability of the
