Electricity Powers a Greener Route to Deuterium-Labeled Antioxidant

Chemists at Wenzhou Medical University have unveiled an electrochemical strategy that threads deuterium-labeled sulfur groups into enaminone scaffolds in a single cascade, and the resulting molecules show a striking ability to shield living cells from oxidative damage. The study, published in Molecular Diversity, describes an ammonium iodide-mediated three-component reaction that combines primary amines, acetylacetone, and […]
