  • Chloride anion transport and copper-mediated DNA cleavage by C-ring functionalized prodigiosenes 

    Diaz, Rosa I. Saez, Jasmine Regourd, Paul V. Santacroce, Jeffery T. Davis, et al. 2007. "Chloride anion transport and copper-mediated DNA cleavage by C-ring functionalized prodigiosenes." Chemical Communications: 2701-2703.
    A new class of prodigiosenes with stability-enhancing functionalities appended to the C-ring were found to transport chloride anions through liposomal membranes, as well as to induce copper-mediated DNA cleavage.

  • Microwave-accelerated synthesis of benzyl 3,5-dimethyl-pyrrole-2-carboxylate 

    Regourd, Jasmine, Ian M. Comeau, Cory S. Beshara, and Alison Thompson. 2006. "Microwave-accelerated synthesis of benzyl 3,5-dimethyl-pyrrole-2-carboxylate." Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry 43(6): 1709-1714.
    Benzyl 3,5-dimethyl-pyrrole-2-carboxylate, a very useful pyrrole in porphyrin and dipyrromethene synthesis, can be synthesized via the Knorr-type reaction, but in low yield. Alternative routes to benzyl 3,5-dimethyl-pyrr ...
