A three-step synthesis of 2-nonen-4-olide starting from heptanal is reported. (E)-3-Nonenoic acid, prepared by Knoevenagel condensation of malonic acid and heptanal, was oxidised by performic acid, a process accompanied by lactonisation, to give 3-hydroxynonan-4-olide in 85% yield. This lactone when reacted with MsCl in the presence of Et3N gave, by elimination, 2-nonen-4-olide in 88% yield. The overall yield was 75%. The odour of the product was evaluated by GC-olfactory analysis and sniffing blotter confirming an oily, coconut-like, and rancid odour.

Bacterial communication, termed Quorum Sensing (QS), is a promising target for virulence attenuation and the treatment of bacterial infections. Infections cause inflammation, a process regulated by a number of cellular factors, including the transcription Nuclear Factor kappa B (NF-κB); this factor is found to be upregulated in many inflammatory diseases, including those induced by bacterial infection. In this study, we tested 32 synthetic derivatives of coumaperine (CP), a known natural compound found in pepper (Piper nigrum), for Quorum Sensing Inhibition (QSI) and NF-κB inhibitory activities. Of the compounds tested, seven were found to have high QSI activity, three inhibited bacterial growth and five inhibited NF-κB. In addition, some of the CP compounds were active in more than one test. For example, compounds CP-286, CP-215 and CP-158 were not cytotoxic, inhibited NF-κB activation and QS but did not show antibacterial activity. CP-154 inhibited QS, decreased NF-κB activation and inhibited bacterial growth. Our results indicate that these synthetic molecules may provide a basis for further development of novel therapeutic agents against bacterial infections.

Paragraph 0050-0052, (2018/10/16)
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method which can get α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid at a high yield by liquid phase oxidation of α,β-unsaturated aldehyde by oxygen or air with a handy metal catalyst under a mild reaction condition. SOLUTION: Preferably under a presence of organic solvent, α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid is manufactured by oxidation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and oxygen or air under a presence of an iron salt catalyst and a catalyst of alkali metal salt of carboxylic acid.
