This is even contemplated in the logo of the College, the benzene ring where the six Schools that integrate the College stand for the carbon vertices, with interactions/links promoted by resonance all around them. The benzene molecule (the College) is dynamic, as suggested by the unconventional oblique orientation in its motion. The idea of extended interaction/link conceivably is consistent with the auroboros, depicting a snake with the mouth grabbing its tail, a symbol of the Egyptian iconography that was used by the alchemists and apparently inspired Kekulé (so he said) in a daydream to propose the benzene structure. The symbol has been used under different forms, such as that in a plate of the Analytical Laboratory (Laboratório de Análises) of the Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), which belonged to Prof. Herculano de Carvalho, and that in Fig.1 we have included within the benzene ring. Figure 1. Plate with the auroboros symbol at the Laboratório de Análises of the Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), framed with a benzene ring. Thanks are due to Dr. Maria Cândida Vaz (Laboratório de Análises) for making accessible the plate and to Prof. M. Fátima Guedes da Silva (Deputy President for the Communication and Image of the College) for the design of the benzene structure. 3 Research on Chemistry in the ULisboa The six Schools of the ULisboa with Chemistry are as follows (in alphabetical order of the Portuguese name): Faculdade de Ciências (Faculty of Sciences), Faculdade de Farmácia (Faculty of Pharmacy), Faculdade de Medicina (Faculty of Medicine), Faculdade de Motricidade Humana (Faculty of Human Kinetics), Instituto Superior de Agronomia (School of Agriculture), and Instituto Superior Técnico (IST Técnico Lisboa). Chemistry is mainly addressed by the IST Técnico Lisboa and the Faculty of Sciences, the former being also the School of Engineering. The scientific collaboration towards the exterior of the ULisboa, including other national and foreign universities and the industrial sector, is also being fostered by the College. For stimulating both the internal and the external collaborative links, an important step of the College activities concerns the promotion of a better knowledge of the interests of the researchers and academic staff of the various Schools of the ULisboa in terms of their scientific areas, research groups, projects and even relevant material resources (equipment). This vade mecum provides a guide at hand for that purpose, as a collection (the first one undertaken at the ULisboa, to our knowledge) of individual researchers and research Groups based on the information gathered through an enquiry that was addressed to all the members of the College and to the Coordinators of all the Research Units and Groups in which we identified interests on Chemical Sciences. This allowed to cover a spectrum as wide as possible comprehending as well the research Groups that, although being focussed on other sciences, also involve Chemistry in their studies. The information was compiled by Nuno Conceição, the College Manager, to whom I address my deep appreciation. Within the individual researchers section, this publication is organized according to the Schools and their Research Units, and the researcher names are ordered alphabetically. Under a complementary perspective, the list of Research Units and their Groups is depicted as an Annex, ordered according to the Schools, Research Units and Groups, with indication of the Coordinators, areas of Chemistry and the corresponding main Divisions of the College (Energy & Environment, Materials, Technology & Industry, and Life & Health). However, one should take into consideration that the reorganization of some Research Units and Groups has been proposed within their evaluation which is under way by the Foundation for Science and Technology (Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia, FCT), and can lead to considerable structural alterations in some cases. In those situations that we are aware of, notes have been added to the appropriate places in the Annex. This initiative of the College complements others which also contribute to fostering the knowledge of ongoing research towards favouring cooperation, including the organization of annual Conferences and PhD Summer Schools gathering the researchers at the ULisboa, post-graduate students and the industrial sector (a Workshop with industry is being organized for July, this year, bridging the annual conference and the summer school). 4 Research on Chemistry in the ULisboa From the inspection of this vade mecum, which comprises over 100 detailed individual researchers, 45 Groups and 13 Research Units developing research in Chemistry, a few general observations can be drawn, such as the following ones: - The research spans over a rather wide spectrum of scientific fields, from pure to oriented and applied chemistry, encompassing not only traditional areas but also current hot topics and challenges, illustrating the modern diversity of chemical sciences, the richness and interdisciplinary character of Chemistry at the ULisboa; - Fruitful cooperations have been established with recognized foreign research groups; - However, national collaborations among members of different Schools are still quite limited, with tendency for carrying out the research activities within their own groups, a propensity that is also patent even within each research unit itself; - Tendency for fusion or integration of smaller research units into larger ones, what eventually can favour scientific cooperation and a better use of resources, thus following the spirit of the creation of the ULisboa upon fusion of the two main Universities therein; - Scientific publications in highly ranked journals and, although in a restricted number of cases, editions of international books illustrate the recognized level of research undertaken at the ULisboa; - Limited external funding: restricted number of research projects that are financed out of the ordinary budget of the research units obtained from the FCT, namely international ones funded by the EU, projects with the industrial sector and even projects approved by FCT within national calls; - Equipment facilities are often insufficient and/or require updating; - Human resources are versatile, some groups showing a high capacity of attraction of foreign researchers, namely from Russia and other countries of the former USSR, from India, from China, etc.; a significant number of foreign researchers are members of the College and have provided

    Nanosized Delivery of Radiopharmaceuticals 2nd Research Coordination Meeting of the CRP 5–9 October 2015 Padua, Italy (May (May 13) 1 4 - C FOREWORD The currently used therapeutic agents in nuclear medicine continue to pose medical challenges mainly due to the limited uptake of radiocompound within tumour sites. This limited accumulation accounts for the fact that current beta-emitting therapeutic nuclear medicine agents have failed to deliver optimum therapeutic payloads at tumour sites. Actually, no other radiolabelled therapeutic agent has been capable to get close to the remarkably high target accumulation that was demonstrated by the long-lasting radionuclide I-131 in thyroid cancer. This means that metastases of several different types of aggressive cancers cannot be controlled, making it difficult to treat cancer patients. Therefore, new delivery modalities that result in (i) effective delivery of therapeutic probes with optimum payloads, site specifically at the tumour sites, minimal/tolerable systemic toxicity, and (ii) higher tumour retention, would bring about a clinically measurable shift in the way cancers are diagnosed and treated. Nanotechnology has the potential to bring about this paradigm shift in the early detection and therapy of various forms of human cancers because radioactive nanoparticles of optimum sizes for penetration across tumour cell membranes can be engineered through a myriad of interdisciplinary approaches, involving teams of experts from nuclear medicine, materials sciences, physics, chemistry, tumour biology and oncologists. Therefore, the overall approach which encompasses application of nanoparticulate radioactive probes in combination with polymeric nanomaterials has a realistic potential to generate the next generation of tumour specific theranostic nanoradiopharmaceuticals and minimize/eliminate delivery and tumour accumulation problems associated with the existing traditional nuclear medicine agents.

This chapter introduces the basic principles of actinide catalysis and deals with the historic development of actinide complexes in catalytic processes. The application of organoactinides in homogeneous catalysis is exemplified in the hydroelementation reactions, such as the hydroamination, hydrosilylation, hydroalkoxylation and hydrothiolation of alkynes. Additionally, the use of actinide coordination complexes for the catalytic polymerization of α-olefins and the ring opening polymerization of cyclic esters is presented. The last part of this review article highlights novel catalytic transformations mediated by actinide compounds and gives an outlook to the further potential of this field. Keywords: organoactinides; actinide coordination complexes; homogeneous catalysis; hydroelementations; polymerization of olefins; ROP; activation of heterocumulenes 1. Introduction The beginning of modern organoactinide chemistry is often attributed to the synthesis of 8 uranocene, [(η -C8H8)2U] in 1968, as the analogous compound to ferrocene and other transition metal metallocenes [1,2].

Hayes* Cite This: Organometallics 2020, 39, 2047−2052 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: The potassium salt of a new ligand, KLP=N3 (2, κ5 i i − LP=N3 = -2,5-[(4- PrC6H4)N3 P Pr2]2N(C4H2) ), that features two units of the rare phosphazide (RN3 PR3) functionality was synthesized via an incomplete Staudinger reaction between K[2,5- i i ( Pr2P)2N(C4H2)] (1)and4-PrC6H4N3. The diphosphazide ligand was transferred to a thorium(IV) metal center using salt metathesis strategies, yielding LP=N3ThCl3 (3), which contains two intact and coordinated phosphazides. Reaction of complex 3 with 3 equiv of LiCH2SiMe3 resulted in formation of the trialkyl thorium species LP=N3Th(CH2SiMe3)3 (4). In contrast, attempts to synthesize an organothorium complex supported by the previously κ3 reported bisphosphinimine ligand LP=N (LP=N = -2,5- i i − ff [(4- PrC6H4)N P Pr2]2N(C4H2) )aorded the cyclometalated * * κ4 i i i i 2− dialkyl complex L P=NTh(CH2SiMe3)2 (6,L PN = -2-[(4- PrC6H3)N P Pr2]-5-[(4- PrC6H4)N P Pr2]N(C4H2) ) and 1 equiv of free tetramethylsilane. 1 he Staudinger reaction, discovered in 1919, introduced the facile loss of N2, and, accordingly, were overlooked as ′ ’ T the formation of a phosphinimine group (R3P NR ) via viable functional groups in ligand design. Since Staudinger s the reaction of a tertiary phosphine (R3P) with an organic original work, multiple methods have been developed to ′ azide (N3R ), resulting in concomitant loss of N2.

Mach* * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract Department of Radiology, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, Background: Fast implementation of positron emission tomography (PET) into clinical USA and preclinical studies highly demands automated synthesis for the preparation of PET radiopharmaceuticals in a safe and reproducible manner. The aim of this study was to develop automated synthesis methods for these six 18F-labeled radiopharmaceuticals produced on a routine basis at the University of Pennsylvania using the AllinOne synthesis module. Results: The development of automated syntheses with varying complexity was accomplished including HPLC purification, SPE procedures and final formulation with sterile filtration. The six radiopharmaceuticals were obtained in high yield and high specific activity with full automation on the AllinOne synthesis module under current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) guidelines. Conclusion: The study demonstrates the versatility of this synthesis module for the preparation of a wide variety of 18F-labeled radiopharmaceuticals for PET imaging studies. Keywords: PET, Radiotracer, Automation, AllinOne, HPLC, SPE, ISO-1, FTP, FTT, F-Gln Background Positron emission tomography (PET) facilities have recently been growing exponen- tially as PET is an especially sensitive molecular imaging technique quantitatively measuring tracers in nano- to picomolar range in comparison with other modalities like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computerized tomography (CT). The main limitation of PET is the short half-lives of the radionuclides used in the development of PET radiotracers.

Meyer Academic dissertation for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Organic Chemistry at Stockholm University to be publicly defended on Friday 4 June 2021 at 10.00 in Magnélisalen, Kemiska övningslaboratoriet, Svante Arrhenius väg 16 B. Abstract This work is focused on two areas: the chemistry of organofluorine and organoboron compounds. In the first chapter, a copper-catalysed synthesis of tri- and tetrasubstituted allenylboronic acids is presented. Extension of the same method leads to allenylboronic esters. The very reactive and moisture-sensitive allenylboronic acids are further applied to the reaction with aldehydes, ketones and imines to form homopropargyl alcohols and amines. In addition, an enantioselective reaction catalysed by a BINOL organocatalyst was developed to form tertiary alcohols with adjacent quaternary carbon stereocenters. The second chapter specialises in the functionalisation of 2,2-difluoro enol silyl ethers with electrophilic reagents under mild reaction conditions.

  • One-Step Radiosynthesis of the Mcts Imaging Agent [18F]FACH By
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN One-step radiosynthesis of the MCTs imaging agent [18F]FACH by aliphatic 18F-labelling of a methylsulfonate precursor containing an unprotected carboxylic acid group Masoud Sadeghzadeh1,2, Rareş-Petru Moldovan1, Rodrigo Teodoro1, Peter Brust 1 & Barbara Wenzel1,2* Monocarboxylate transporters 1 and 4 (MCT1 and MCT4) are involved in tumour development and progression. Their level of expression is particularly upregulated in glycolytic cancer cells and accordingly MCTs are considered as promising drug targets for treatment of a variety of human cancers. The non-invasive imaging of these transporters in cancer patients via positron emission tomography (PET) is regarded to be valuable for the monitoring of therapeutic efects of MCT inhibitors. Recently, we developed the frst 18F-radiolabelled MCT1/MCT4 inhibitor [18F]FACH and reported on a two-step one-pot radiosynthesis procedure. We herein describe now a unique one-step radiosynthesis of this radiotracer which is based on the approach of using a methylsulfonate (mesylate) precursor bearing an unprotected carboxylic acid function. With the new procedure unexpected high radiochemical yields of 43 ± 8% at the end of the radiosynthesis could be obtained in a strongly reduced total synthesis time. Moreover, the radiosynthesis was successfully transferred to a TRACERlab FX2 N synthesis module ready for future preclinical applications of [18F]FACH. Metabolic reprogramming is one of the two emerging hallmarks of cancer postulated by Hanahan and Weinberg in 20111. First observed by Warburg2, tumour cells primarily produce energy via switching from mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (MOP) to aerobic glycolysis even in the presence of oxygen3,4. Aerobic glycolysis is less energy efcient than MOP, but it appears to confer advantages for rapidly proliferating cells through the formation of metabolites like e.g.
