Interaction with activated B cells leads to conversion of non-arthritic SF into SF with a proinflammatory and aggressive RA-like phenotype, thereby suggesting a new, so far unrecognised role for B cells in RA pathogenesis.
A copper‐catalyzed borylation/ortho‐cyanation/allyl group transfer cascade was developed. Initiated by an unconventional copper‐catalyzed electrophilic dearomatization, this process features regio‐ and stereospecific 1,3‐transposition of the allyl fragment enabled by an aromatization‐driven Cope rearrangement. This method provides an effective means for the construction of adjacent tertiary and quaternary stereocenters with excellent diastereocontrol.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
