- Unexpected ritter reaction during acid-promoted 1,3-dithiol-2-one formation
-
A series of aryl-substituted 1,3-dithiol-2-ones was prepared by the Bhattacharya-Hortmann cyclization method. Unexpectedly, a Ritter reaction occurred during the acid-catalyzed cyclization at the cyano group of the aryl substituents and 1,3-dithiol-2-ones bearing a carboxy or a carboxamide group could be selectively obtained (see 1 and 2a in Scheme 1). The formation of the acid or the amide functionality was temperature-dependent so that the one or the other group could be introduced selectively by modifying the reaction temperature. Copyright

- Electroselective α-bromination of acetophenone using: In situ bromonium ions from ammonium bromide
-
A greener and expeditious method for the side chain bromination of acetophenone using in situ generated bromonium ions from NH4Br and a catalytic amount of H2SO4 as a supporting electrolyte in a H2O:CH3CN medium at ambient temperature has been developed in an undivided cell equipped with a Pt/Pt electrode. This method results in a good yield (80%) of α-bromo acetophenone with high selectivity when only 2F of electricity was passed. Optimization studies such as variation of the current density, charge passed, solvent, solvent/water ratio, acid, acid strength, bromide salt, bromide salt concentration, etc., are carried out and reported.

- High Chemo-/Stereoselectivity for Synthesis of Polysubstituted Monofluorinated Pyrimidyl Enol Ether Derivatives
-
A novel intramolecular Smiles rearrangement of α-fluoro-β-keto-pyrimidylsulfones (usually used as a carbon nucleophile) was developed, providing a versatile avenue for synthesis of tri/tetra-substituted monofluorinated pyrimidyl enol ethers. Among these, diverse (Z)-monofluorovinylsulfones and sulfinates were efficiently assembled by adding extra electrophile and fine-tuning reaction conditions. The process is triggered by a keto-enol tautomerism from enol oxyanion to pyrimidine 2-carbon, completely different from the classical carbon nucleophilic addition reaction approach.

- Base-Catalyzed Intramolecular Defluorination/O-Arylation Reaction for the Synthesis of 3-Fluoro-1,4-oxathiine 4,4-Dioxide
-
A novel process involving base-catalyzed intramolecular defluorination/O-arylation of readily available α-fluoro-β-one-sulfones was realized and provided a series of 3-fluoro-1,4-oxathiine 4,4-dioxide derivatives in good to excellent yields. Unlike traditional defluorination reactions with stoichiometric base as the deacid reagent, this process is triggered by a catalytic amount of base (TMG: tetramethylguanidine) and molecular sieves serve as both an adsorbent to remove HF acid and an activator to assist C-F bond cleavage.

-
An oxa-[2,3] sigmatropic rearrangement involving arynes is reported featuring the umpolung of ketones, where the C=O bond polarity is reversed. The in situ-generated sulfur ylides from β-keto thioethers and arynes undergo efficient rearrangement allowing the facile and robust synthesis of functionalized enol ethers in high yields and excellent functional group compatibility. Preliminary mechanistic studies rule out the possibility of Pummerer-type rearrangement operating in this case.

- Flexible on-site halogenation paired with hydrogenation using halide electrolysis
-
Direct electrochemical halogenation has appeared as an appealing approach in synthesizing organic halides in which inexpensive inorganic halide sources are employed and electrical power is the sole driving force. However, the intrinsic characteristics of direct electrochemical halogenation limit its reaction scope. Herein, we report an on-site halogenation strategy utilizing halogen gas produced from halide electrolysis while the halogenation reaction takes place in a reactor spatially isolated from the electrochemical cell. Such a flexible approach is able to successfully halogenate substrates bearing oxidatively labile functionalities, which are challenging for direct electrochemical halogenation. In addition, low-polar organic solvents, redox-active metal catalysts, and variable temperature conditions, inconvenient for direct electrochemical reactions, could be readily employed for our on-site halogenation. Hence, a wide range of substrates including arenes, heteroarenes, alkenes, alkynes, and ketones all exhibit excellent halogenation yields. Moreover, the simultaneously generated H2at the cathode during halide electrolysis can also be utilized for on-site hydrogenation. Such a strategy of paired halogenation/hydrogenation maximizes the atom economy and energy efficiency of halide electrolysis. Taking advantage of the on-site production of halogen and H2gases using portable halide electrolysis but not being suffered from electrolyte separation and restricted reaction conditions, our approach of flexible halogenation coupled with hydrogenation enables green and scalable synthesis of organic halides and value-added products.

Oxidation potential-guided electrochemical radical-radical cross-coupling reactions between N-heteroarenes and sodium sulfinates have been established. Thus, simple cyclic voltammetry measurement of substrates predicts the likelihood of successful radical-radical coupling reactions, allowing the simple and direct synthetic access to 3-sulfonylated imidazopyridines and indolizines. The developed electrochemical radical-radical cross-coupling reactions to sulfonylated N-heteroarenes boast the green synthetic nature of the reactions that are oxidant- and metal-free.

- Ground-State Electron Transfer as an Initiation Mechanism for Biocatalytic C-C Bond Forming Reactions
-
The development of non-natural reaction mechanisms is an attractive strategy for expanding the synthetic capabilities of substrate promiscuous enzymes. Here, we report an "ene"-reductase catalyzed asymmetric hydroalkylation of olefins using α-bromoketones as radical precursors. Radical initiation occurs via ground-state electron transfer from the flavin cofactor located within the enzyme active site, an underrepresented mechanism in flavin biocatalysis. Four rounds of site saturation mutagenesis were used to access a variant of the "ene"-reductase nicotinamide-dependent cyclohexanone reductase (NCR) from Zymomonas mobiles capable of catalyzing a cyclization to furnish β-chiral cyclopentanones with high levels of enantioselectivity. Additionally, wild-type NCR can catalyze intermolecular couplings with precise stereochemical control over the radical termination step. This report highlights the utility for ground-state electron transfers to enable non-natural biocatalytic C-C bond forming reactions.

- Rhodium-Catalyzed Annulation of Phenacyl Ammonium Salts with Propargylic Alcohols via a Sequential Dual C-H and a C-C Bond Activation: Modular Entry to Diverse Isochromenones
-
Given their omnipresence in natural products and pharmaceuticals, isochromenone congeners are one of the most privileged scaffolds to synthetic chemists. Disclosed herein is a dual (ortho/meta) C-H and C-C activation of phenacyl ammonium salts (acylammonium as traceless directing group) toward annulation with propargylic alcohols to accomplish rapid access for novel isochromenones by means of rhodium catalysis from readily available starting materials. This operationally simple protocol features broad substrate scope and wide functional group tolerance. Importantly, the protocol circumvents the need of any stoichiometric metal oxidants and proceeds under aerobic conditions.

- Usnic Acid Enaminone-Coupled 1,2,3-Triazoles as Antibacterial and Antitubercular Agents
-
(+)-Usnic acid, a product of secondary metabolism in lichens, has displayed a broad range of biological properties such as antitumor, antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and insecticidal activities. Interested by these pharmacological activities and to tap into its potential, we herein present the synthesis and biological evaluation of new usnic acid enaminone-conjugated 1,2,3-triazoles 10-44 as antimycobacterial agents. (+)-Usnic acid was condensed with propargyl amine to give usnic acid enaminone 8 with a terminal ethynyl moiety. It was further reacted with various azides A1-A35 under copper catalysis to give triazoles 10-44 in good yields. Among the synthesized compounds, saccharin derivative 36 proved to be the most active analogue, inhibiting Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) at an MIC value of 2.5 μM. Analogues 16 and 27, with 3,4-difluorophenacyl and 2-acylnaphthalene units, respectively, inhibited Mtb at MIC values of 5.4 and 5.3 μM, respectively. Among the tested Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, the new derivatives were active on Bacillus subtilis, with compounds 18 [3-(trifluoromethyl)phenacyl] and 29 (N-acylmorpholinyl) showing inhibitory concentrations of 41 and 90.7 μM, respectively, while they were inactive on the other tested bacterial strains. Overall, the study presented here is useful for converting natural (+)-usnic acid into antitubercular and antibacterial agents via incorporation of enaminone and 1,2,3-triazole functionalities.

- Pd-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Olefination: Stereoselective Synthesis of Polysubstituted Butadienes and Macrocyclic P-glycoprotein Inhibitors
-
The efficient and stereoselective synthesis of polysubstituted butadienes, especially the multifunctional butadienes, represents a great challenge in organic synthesis. Herein, we wish to report a distinctive Pd(0) carbene-initiated decarboxylative olefination approach that enables the direct coupling of diazo esters with vinylethylene carbonates (VECs), vinyl oxazolidinones, or vinyl benzoxazinones to afford alcohol-, amine-, or aniline-containing 1,3-dienes in moderate to high yields and with excellent stereoselectivity. This protocol features operational simplicity, mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and gram-scalability. Notably, a structurally unique allylic Pd(II) intermediate was isolated and characterized. DFT calculation and control experiments demonstrated that a rare Pd(0) carbene intermediate could be involved in this reaction. Moreover, the polysubstituted butadienes as novel building blocks were unprecedentedly assembled into macrocycles, which efficiently inhibited the P-glycoprotein and dramatically reversed multidrug resistance in cancer cells by 190-fold.

Malaria remains one of the most deadly infectious diseases, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths each year, primarily in young children and pregnant mothers. Here, we report the discovery and derivatization of a series of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines targeting Plasmodium falciparum, the deadliest species of the malaria parasite. Hit compounds in this series display sub-micromolar in vitro activity against the intraerythrocytic stage of the parasite as well as little to no toxicity against the human fibroblast BJ and liver HepG2 cell lines. In addition, our hit compounds show good activity against the liver stage of the parasite but little activity against the gametocyte stage. Parasitological profiles, including rate of killing, docking, and molecular dynamics studies, suggest that our compounds may target the Qo binding site of cytochrome bc1.

An operationally simple and safe synthesis of α-haloketones using KBr and KCl as nonhazardous halogen sources is reported. It involves an iron-catalysed reaction of alkenes with KBr/KCl using O2 as terminal oxidant under the irradiation of visible-light. This strategy avoids the risks associated with handling halo-contained electrophiles (Cl2, Br2, NCS, NBS). The process is tolerant to several functional groups, and extended to a range of substituted styrenes in up to 89% yield. A radical reaction pathway is proposed based on control experiments and spectroscopy studies.

- Organocatalyzed Enantioselective Michael Addition of 2-Hydroxypyridines and α,β-Unsaturated 1,4-Dicarbonyl Compounds
-
The framework of 2-pyridones is prevalent in biologically and medicinally important molecules. Here we report that chiral N-substituted 2-pyridones were prepared by enantioselective, organocatalytic aza-Michael additions of halogenated 2-hydroxypyridines (pyridin-2(1H)-ones) to α,β-unsaturated-1,4-dketones or 1,4-ketoesters. The reactions were optimized by the choice of solvents and systematic screening of Cinchona alkaloid-based bifunctional catalysts to achieve excellent yields and enantioselectivities (up to 98% yield and >99% ee). Density functional theory calculations provided rationales for the observed enantioselectivity. Formal synthesis of a human rhinovirus protease inhibitor was achieved using the chiral Michael adduct generated by this method. (Figure presented.).

- Synthesis of Novel 4-(Dimethylaminoalkyl)piperazine-1-carbodithioa t e Derivatives as Cholinesterase Inhibitors
-
Background: Carbamate compounds have attracted a great deal of interest in medicinal chemistry due to their inhibition potential against cholinesterase enzymes. Method: Hence, this study was undertaken to synthesize new piperazine derivatives including dithiocarbamate moiety, which is the bioisoster of carbamate. Twenty eight 4-(dimethylaminoalkyl) piperazine-1-carbodithioate derivatives (3a-3n, 4a-4n) were synthesized. Chemical structures of these compounds were confirmed by spectral data. Ellman's assay was applied in order to investigate inhibitory potency of the compounds against Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) enzymes. Results and Conclusion: It was determined that some of the compounds have remarkable activity on AChE. ADME (Absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination) predictions were theoretically performed for all compounds in the series. Enzyme kinetics and molecular docking studies were carried out for the most active compound (3n) and nature of inhibition and interactions between enzyme and ligand were described.

We herein describe the results of further evolution of glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)-3β inhibitors from our promising compounds containing a 2-phenylmorpholine moiety. Transformation of the morpholine moiety into a piperazine moiety resulted in potent GSK-3β inhibitors. SAR studies focused on the phenyl moiety revealed that a 4-fluoro-2-methoxy group afforded potent inhibitory activity toward GSK-3β. Based on docking studies, new hydrogen bonding between the nitrogen atom of the piperazine moiety and the oxygen atom of the main chain of Gln185 has been indicated, which may contribute to increased activity compared with that of the corresponding phenylmorpholine analogues. Effect of the stereochemistry of the phenylpiperazine moiety is also discussed.

- Direct Transformation of Ethylarenes into Primary Aromatic Amides with N -Bromosuccinimide and I2-Aqueous NH3
-
A variety of ethylarenes were converted into the corresponding primary aromatic amides in good yields via treatment with N-bromosuccinimide in the presence of a catalytic amount of 2,2′-azobis(isobutyronitrile) in a mixture of ethyl acetate and water, acetonitrile and water, or chloroform and water, followed by reaction with molecular iodine and aq NH3 in one pot. It was found that aryl α-bromomethyl ketones and/or aryl methyl ketones were formed at the first reaction step and their iodoform-type reaction occurred at the second reaction step to provide primary aromatic amides. The present reaction is a useful and practical transition-metal-free method for the preparation of primary aromatic amides from ethylarenes. (Chemical Equation Presented).

-
An easy and rapid method for the α-bromination of ketones using N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) catalyzed by silica gel in methanol under reflux conditions was developed. The expected products were formed in excellent isolated yields within a short period of time (5-20 min). Major advantages of the present procedure include use of inexpensive and readily available catalyst, exclusion of pre- and post-chemical treatment of catalyst and use of methanol as solvent instead of ethers and chlorinated solvents.

- Oxidative bromination of ketones using ammonium bromide and oxone
-
A highly efficient, environmentally safe and economic method for selective α-monobromination of aralkyl, cyclic, acyclic, 1,3-diketones and β-keto esters and α,α-dibromination of 1,3-diketones and β-keto esters without catalyst is reported using ammonium bromide as a bromine source and oxone as an oxidant. The reaction proceeds at ambient temperature and yields range from moderate to excellent. Bromination of unsymmetrical ketones takes place at the less substituted α-position predominantly. Aromatisation of tetralones is also carried out with this reagent system.

- Switching reversibility to irreversibility in glycogen synthase kinase 3 inhibitors: Clues for specific design of new compounds
-
Development of kinase-targeted therapies for central nervous system (CNS) diseases is a great challenge. Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) offers a great potential for severe CNS unmet diseases, being one of the inhibitors on clinical trials for different tauopathies. Following our hypothesis based on the enhanced reactivity of residue Cys199 in the binding site of GSK-3, we examine here the suitability of phenylhalomethylketones as irreversible inhibitors. Our data confirm that the halomethylketone unit is essential for the inhibitory activity. Moreover, addition of the halomethylketone moiety to reversible inhibitors turned them into irreversible inhibitors with IC50 values in the nanomolar range. Overall, the results point out that these compounds might be useful pharmacological tools to explore physiological and pathological processes related to signaling pathways regulated by GSK-3 opening new avenues for the discovery of novel GSK-3 inhibitors.

- Synthesis, semipreparative HPLC separation, biological evaluation, and 3D-QSAR of hydrazothiazole derivatives as human monoamine oxidase B inhibitors
-
The present study reports on synthesis in high yields (70-99%), HPLC enantioseparation, inhibitory activity against human monoamino oxidases, and molecular modeling including 3D-QSAR studies, of a large series of (4-aryl-thiazol-2-yl)hydrazones (1-45). Most of the synthesized compounds proved to be potent and selective inhibitors of hMAO-B isoform in the micromolar or nanomolar range, thus demonstrating that hydrazothiazole could be considered a good pharmacophore to design new hMAO-B inhibitors. Due to the presence in some derivatives of a chiral center, we also performed a semipreparative chromatographic enantioseparation of these compounds obtained by a stereoconservative pattern. The separated enantiomers were submitted to in vitro biological evaluation to point out the stereorecognition of the active site of the enzyme towards these structures. Finally, a 3D-QSAR study was carried out using Comparative Molecular Field Analysis (CoMFA), aiming to deduce rational guidelines for the further structural modification of these lead compounds.

- Direct synthesis of α-bromoketones from alkylarenes by aerobic visible light photooxidation
-
The direct synthesis of α-bromoketones from alkylarenes by aerobic photooxidation with hydrobromic acid is reported. The key success for this direct oxidative reaction is due to control of bromination with acetic acid and ethanol, which are generated in situ by solvolysis of ethyl acetate in the course of the reaction.
