Enantioselective synthesis of cyclohexenone derivatives by a chemicoenzymatic approach: stereo- and regioselective route to potential intermediates of compactin (ML 236B) and mevinolin

As a synthetic application of the chiral monoester 2, prepared by pig liver esterase (PLE)-catalyzed hydrolysis of the corresponding meso diester 1, conversion of 2 into various cyclohexenone derivatives was examined. This paper describes the preparation of the isomeric cyclohexenones 6 and 7, potential intermediates for the synthesis of anti-hypercholesmic compactin (ML 236B) and mevinolin, under stereo- and regioselective control.     

An organocatalytic route to the synthesis of lactone moiety of compactin and mevinolin

An efficient synthesis of lactone moiety of compactin has been achieved. The stereogenic centers were generated by means of iterative proline-catalyzed sequential α-aminoxylation and Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons (HWE) olefination of aldehydes.     

Synthesis of the bis-spiroacetal moiety of spirolides B and D

An enantioselective synthesis of the bis-spiroacetal fragment of spirolides B and D is reported. The carbon framework was constructed via Barbier reaction of dihydropyran 3 with aldehyde 4, followed by a double oxidative radical cyclization to construct the bis-spiroacetal. A silyl-modified Prins cyclization and enantioselective crotylation successfully installed the stereocenters in the cyclization precursor. The initial unsaturated bis-spiroacetals 2a-d underwent equilibration during epoxidation to trans-epoxide 14 that was converted to a tertiary alcohol. [reaction: see text]     

Synthesis of novel azabicyclo derivatives containing a thiazole moiety and their biological activity against pine-wood nematodes

Abstract

To explore a new skeleton with nematicidal activity, a series of novel azabicyclo derivatives containing a thiazole moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their nematicidal activities. The bioassay results against pine-wood nematodes (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) showed that most of the title compounds displayed nematicidal activity at a concentration of 40?mg/L. Especially, the title compounds2-((8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-yl)oxy)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)thiazole (7e), 2-((8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-yl)thio)-4-phenylthiazole (10a) and 2-((8-methyl-8-azabicyclo [3.2.1]octan-3-yl)thio)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)thiazole (10e) exhibited more than 90% mortality against Bursaphelenchus xylophilus.

Synthesis,characterization and biological activity studies of octahedral nickel(II) complexes

Abstract  

Three nickel(II) complexes, namely [Ni(BH)₃](H₂O)(NO₃)(ClO₄) 1, [Ni(BH)₂(NO₃)₂] 2 and [Ni(BH)(Tren)](ClO₄)₂ 3 (BH = Benzoylhydrazine, Tren = Tris(2-aminoethyl)amine) have been synthesized and characterized by physico-chemical techniques. X-ray crystallographic analysis shows the nickel to be six-coordinated in these complexes. The complexes are efficient catalysts for the dismutation of superoxide in alkaline DMSO-NBT assays. The IC₅₀ values are 74,108 and 105 μM for 1, 2 and 3, respectively.     

Synthesis and biological activities of benzothiazole derivatives bearing a 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety

A series of benzothiazole derivatives bearing a 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activities. The bioassay results indicated that most of target compounds showed good antiviral activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and antibacterial activities against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Ralstonia solanacearum (Rs). Especially, the anti-Xoo effect of title compounds 5k (N-(5-methoxybenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-((5-(2-tolyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)acetamide) and the anti-Rs effect of title compounds 5a (N-(5-nitrobenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-((5-(4-(trifluorom ethyl)phenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)acetmide) respectively reached 52.4% and 71.6% at 100?µg/mL, which are superior to that of bismerthiazol (32.0% and 52.3%). In addition, the protective and inactivation activities of title compound 5i (N-(5-methoxybenzo [d]thiazol-2-yl)-2-((5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)acetamide) against TMV were 79.5% and 88.3%, respectively, which are better than that of ningnanmycin (76.4% and 86.8%). The above research showed that benzothiazole derivatives bearing a 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety may be used as potential molecular templates in searching for highly-efficient antiviral and antibacterial agents.

Synthesis,characterization and biological studies of ferrocenyl complexes containing thiophene moiety

A new ferrocenyl ligand was prepared from the condensation of 1,1′‐diacetylferrocene dihydrazone with 2‐thiophenealdehyde. The ligand, 1,1′‐bis[(2‐thienylmethylidene)hydrazono‐1‐ethyl]ferrocene, forms 1:1 complexes with cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) in good yield. Characterization of the ligand and complexes was carried out using IR, ¹H NMR, electronic absorption and elemental analysis. Biological activity of the ligand and its complexes was assessed against Bacillus subtilis (+ve), Staphylococcus aureus (+ve), Candida albicans (yeast), Esherichia coli (?ve), Salmonella typhi (?ve), Aspergillus niger (fungi), and Fusarium solani (fungi). The biological results indicated that the complexes prepared are more active than the ligand. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Synthesis of a new water-soluble oligo(phenylenevinylene) containing a tyrosine moiety for tyrosinase activity detection

A new water-soluble oligo(phenylenevinylene) containing a tyrosine unit (OPV-Tyr) was synthesized as a fluorescent probe to optically detect tyrosinase activity. Upon the addition of tyrosinase, the tyrosine moiety was oxidized to quinone, which quenched the fluorescence of OPV-Tyr via intramolecular electron transfer from the phenylenevinylene unit to the quinone site. OPV-Tyr was elaborated to detect tyrosinase activity both in aqueous buffer solution and in agarose gel.
