Second-order rate constants and equilibrium constants have been determined for the benzoate ion promoted deprotonation reactions of (m-nitrophenyl)nitromethane, (p-nitrophenyl)nitromethane, and (3,5-dinitrophenyl)nitromethane in methanol solution. The pK

Herein we report six novel triazole linked polyphenol-aminobenzene hybrids (3-8) as inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis FabG4 (Rv0242c), a less explored β-ketoacyl CoA reductase that has immense potential to be the future anti-tuberculosis drug target due to its possible involvement in drug resistance and latent infection. Novel triazole linked polyphenol-aminobenzene hybrids have been synthesized, characterized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against FabG4. All of them inhibit FabG4 at low micromolar concentrations. In silico docking study has been carried out to explain the experimental findings. A comparative study of these new inhibitors with previously reported gallate counterparts leads to structure-activity relations (SAR) of substituent linked to N-1 of triazole ring.

Second-order rate constants for benzoate ion promoted deprotonation reactions of (3-nitropbenyl)nitromethane, (4-nitrophenyl)nitromethane, and (3,5-dinitrophenyl)nitromethane have been determined in acetonitrile solution at 25 °C. These data were obtained at low benzoate buffer concentrations (a= 21.7; (4-nitromethyl)nitromethane, pKa = 20.6; and (3,5-dinitrophenyl)nitromethane, pKa, = 19.8. A Br?nsted βB value of 0.56 and an αCHlue of 0.79 have been calculated for the benzoate, 3-bromobenzoate, and 4-nitrobenzoate ion promoted reactions of (3,5- dinitrophenyl)nitromethane and for the benzoate ion promoted reactions of (3- nitrophenyl)nitromethane and (3,5-dinitrophenyl)nitromethane, respectively; (4-nitrophenyl)nitromethane deviates negatively from the Bronsted plot due to the resonance effect of the 4-nitro group. The logarithms of the intrinsic rate constants for benzoate promoted deprotonations of (3-nitrophenyl)nitromethane, (4-nitro phenyl)nitromethane, and (3,5-dinitrophenyl)nitromethane are 4.81, 4.58, and 5.27, respectively, and these values are 1.43, 1.70, and 1.30 log units, respectively, higher in acetonitrile than in dimethyl sulfoxide. Transfer activity coefficients from dimethyl sulfoxide (D) to acetonitrile (A) solution, log DγA, for (3-nitropbenyl)nitroimethyl anion (0.28), (4-nitrophenyl)nitromethyl anion (0.56), (3-nitrophenyl)nitromethane (0.18), and (4-nitrophenyl)nitromethane (0.16) have been calculated, and log DγA for benzoic acid (~ 1.9) and the benzoate ion (~0.25) have been estimated. The solvent effects on the intrinsic rate constants are analyzed within the framework of the Principle of Nonperfect Synchronization (PNS) in terms of contributions by late solvation of the arylnitromethyl anion, late solvation of the benzoic acid (produced as a product of the reaction), early desolvation of the benzoate ion and the arylnitromethane, and by a classical solvent effect. The results are also compared with predictions by a theoretical model recently proposed by Kurz. For the comparison of intrinsic rate constants in water and dimethyl sulfoxide there is good agreement between the Kurz model and the experimental results as well as the PNS analysts, but there is a discrepancy between the results and the predictions of the Kurz model for the comparison of intrinsic rate constants in dimethyl sulfoxide and acetonitrile solutions.
