Abstract
Mono- and difluoromethylenebisphosphonates are of great synthetic and biological interest since they are among the best isopolar pyrophosphate mimics. This review will emphasize preparation and some of the most important applications of these compounds. The following synthetic approaches to fluoromethylenebisphosphonates are summarized: (i) electrophilic halogenation, (ii) Arbuzov and Michaelis-Becker reactions, (iii) direct electrophilic phosphorylation of fluoromethylphosphonate carbanions, and (iv) autocondensation of fluoromethylphosphonate carbanions. Emphasis is given to the synthesis and biomedical application of modified nucleoside polyphosphates, incorporating fluoromethylenebisphosphonate scaffold.

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
Chemistry and Biology of Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are one of the most abundant natural products and are considered to be extremely important biomolecules for their ever-increasing impact on chemistry and biology. Their role in several important biological processes, notably energy storage, transport, modulation of protein function, intercellular adhesion, malignant transformation, signal transduction, viral, and bacterial cell ...read more
Electrochemical C-X bond formation
Conventional methods for carrying out carbon–X bond formation are typically conducted at harsh reaction conditions, and rely on expensive catalysts as well as the use of stoichiometric, and perhaps toxic, oxidants. In this regard, electrochemical synthesis has recently been recognized as a sustainable and scalable strategy for the construction of ...read more
N-Heterocyclics: Synthesis, Computational Studies, and Coordination Chemistry - A synthetic perspective
N-heterocycles, such as phenanthroline, quinoline, or their organometallic complexes, are widely used in a variety of fields, including chemistry, biochemistry, and coordination chemistry. They play a key role in many chemical and biological processes as biological ligands, medicinal agents, catalysts in organic synthesis, molecular probes and sensors, as well as ...read more
