bond oxidation of alkenes serves as possibly the most employed C–H bond functionalization reaction. However, sustainable and selective approaches remain scarce, and the majority of the existing conditions still hinge on hazardous oxidants or costly metal catalysts. In this context, we introduce a heterogeneous iron catalyst that addresses the above-mentioned concerns by showcasing the aerobic oxidation
The invention relates to solid state forms of androst-5-ene-3β,7β,16α,17β-tetrol, formulations containing or prepared from such solid state forms and use of these materials for modulating unwanted inflammation including acute and chronic non-productive inflammation. The formulations can be used to prevent, treat or slow the progression of conditions related to autoimmunity and metabolic disorders such as arthritis, multiple sclerosis, ulcerative colitis, Type 1 diabetes and Type 2 diabetes.
