Pyridinium-2-carbaldoximes with quinolinium carboxamide moiety are simultaneous reactivators of acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibited by nerve agent surrogates
The pyridinium-2-carbaldoximes with quinolinium carboxamide moiety were designed and synthesised as cholinesterase reactivators. The prepared compounds showed intermediate-to-high inhibition of both cholinesterases when compared to standard oximes. Their reactivation ability was evaluated in?vitro on human recombinant acetylcholinesterase (hrAChE) and human recombinant butyrylcholinesterase (hrBChE) inhibited by nerve agent surrogates (NIMP, NEMP, and NEDPA) or paraoxon. In the reactivation screening, one compound was able to reactivate hrAChE inhibited by all used organophosphates and two novel compounds were able to reactivate NIMP/NEMP-hrBChE. The reactivation kinetics revealed compound 11 that proved to be excellent reactivator of paraoxon-hrAChE better to obidoxime and showed increased reactivation of NIMP/NEMP-hrBChE, although worse to obidoxime. The molecular interactions of studied reactivators were further identified by in silico calculations. Molecular modelling results revealed the importance of creation of the pre-reactivation complex that could lead to better reactivation of both cholinesterases together with reducing particular interactions for lower intrinsic inhibition by the oxime.
Visible light-mediated synthesis of amides from carboxylic acids and amine-boranes
Here, a photocatalytic deoxygenative amidation protocol using readily available amine-boranes and carboxylic acids is described. This approach features mild conditions, moderate-to-good yields, easy scale-up, and up to 62 examples of functionalized amides with diverse substituents. The synthetic robustness of this method was also demonstrated by its application in the late-stage functionalization of several pharmaceutical molecules.
Copper catalysed direct amidation of methyl groups with N-H bonds
An efficient copper catalyzed direct aerobic oxidative amidation of methyl groups of azaarylmethanes with N-H bonds producing amides is successfully developed, which can produce primary, secondary and tertiary amides, including those with functional groups. This reaction represents a straightforward method for the preparation of amides from the readily available hydrocarbon starting materials.
High-temperature synthesis of amides from alcohols or aldehydes by using flow chemistry
An efficient conversion of aliphatic and aromatic alcohols or aldehydes into the corresponding primary amides was successfully achieved by using flow chemistry. Excellent yields were obtained in very short reaction times, and thus this method offers an efficient alternative to traditional methods for amide formation.

A novel, selective free-radical carbamoylation of heteroaromatic bases by Ce(IV) oxidation of formamide, catalysed by N-hydroxyphthalimide
The Ce(IV)-NHPI system was used to generate a carbamoyl radical by oxidation of formamide; this nucleophilic radical has been successfully used in the carbamoylation of heteroaromatic bases.
