Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the Structural Diversity, Substitution Patterns, and Frequency of Nitrogen Heterocycles among U.S. FDA Approved Pharmaceuticals
TL;DR: This review reports on the top 25 most commonly utilized nitrogen heterocycles found in pharmaceuticals, and reports detailed substitution patterns, highlight common architectural cores, and discuss unusual or rare structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Data-mining for sulfur and fluorine: an evaluation of pharmaceuticals to reveal opportunities for drug design and discovery.
TL;DR: The evolution and structural diversity of sulfur and the popular integration of fluorine into drugs introduced over the past 50 years are evaluated and promoted to promote innovative insights into drug development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seeded growth of single-crystal two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks
Austin M. Evans,Lucas R. Parent,Nathan C. Flanders,Ryan P. Bisbey,Ryan P. Bisbey,Edon Vitaku,Matthew S. Kirschner,Richard D. Schaller,Richard D. Schaller,Lin X. Chen,Lin X. Chen,Nathan C. Gianneschi,William R. Dichtel +12 more
TL;DR: Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D COFs) offer broad monomer scope but are generally isolated as powders comprising aggregated nanometer-scale crystallites, but it is found that 2D COF formation could be controlled using a two-step procedure in which monomers are added slowly to preformed nanoparticle seeds, which should enable a broad exploration of synthetic 2D polymer structures and properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenazine-Based Covalent Organic Framework Cathode Materials with High Energy and Power Densities.
Edon Vitaku,Cara N. Gannett,Keith L. Carpenter,Luxi Shen,Héctor D. Abruña,William R. Dichtel +5 more
TL;DR: The unmodified DAPH-TFP COF exhibited excellent electrical access to its redox sites, even without PEDot functionalization, and outperformed the PEDOT composite of the previously reported anthraquinone-based system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of 2D Imine-Linked Covalent Organic Frameworks through Formal Transimination Reactions.
Edon Vitaku,William R. Dichtel +1 more
TL;DR: This method is amenable to both conventional solvothermal conditions and microwave heating, providing similar or even improved materials quality with shorter reaction times, and the high materials quality, scalability, and availability of benzophenone imine monomers are all attractive features of this approach.
