Abstract
A luminescent calix[5]arene with a covalently linked dansyl chromophore substituent has been successfully used, both in solution and in the gas phase (ESI-MS), for the recognition of biogenic amines that contain linear alkylammonium structural unit. Binding constant values, determined by fluorescence spectroscopy, revealed a greater affinity for cadaverine, spermidine, and L-lysine, in which the terminal ammonium group allows for additional stabilizing interactions with the dansyl moiety.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
