Construction of nitrogen-heterocyclic compounds through zirconium mediated intramolecular alkene-carbonyl coupling reaction of N-(o-alkenylaryl)carbamate derivatives

Intramolecular alkene-carbonyl coupling reaction of N-benzyl-N-(o-alkenylaryl)carbamate derivative derived from o-aminostyrene, o-(aminomethyl)styrene and o-aminoallylbenzene smoothly proceeded by treating with zirconocene-butene complex to give the corresponding lactam derivative.     

Iodine/persulfate-promoted site-selective direct thiolation of quinolones and uracils

A simple and general method for direct thiolation of 4-quinolones with disulfides or thiols under I₂/K₂S₂O₈ system has been developed. Under the optimal conditions, the C–S bond coupling can take place effectively with good to decent yields and excellent regioselectivity of the S-linked products. The established metal-free site-selective approach was also applicable to transform a range of uracil substrates to the thio-substituted products under mild conditions. Further transformation to the sulfone derivatives can be conveniently performed in one-pot. These easy-to-handle protocols represent a useful and interesting synthetic alternative with good substrate scope and functional group compatibility.

Reaction of 2-propargylphenylcarbamates with diphenyliodonium salts via Meyer-Schuster rearrangement

The syntheses of 2,3-dihydro-4-quinolones from 2-propargylphenylcarbamates by one-pot tandem process that involves Meyer-Schuster rearrangement or arylative Meyer-Schuster rearrangement/Michael addition of carbamate nitrogen to the resulting vinyl ketones have been developed. Phenylcarbamates tethering tertiary propargyl alcohols underwent arylative Meyer-Schuster rearrangement/Friedel-Crafts alkylation to produce 2,3-dihydroindenones.

Determination of fluoroquinolones in chicken tissues by LC-coupled electrospray ionisation and atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation

The aim of this work was to develop a method for determining seven quinolones (ciprofloxacin, danofloxacin, enrofloxacin, sarafloxacin, difloxacin, oxolinic acid and flumequine) in chicken muscle by LC coupled to MS. Two ionisation techniques, ESI and atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation (APCI) were compared using standard solutions. LOD and LOQwere determined under the optimised conditions for the two sources. The ESI was found the best for the purpose. The optimised method (LC-ESI-MS) was validated for the simultaneous analysis of the quinolones regulated by European Community in spiked chicken tissues, using norfloxacin as internal standard. Recoveries obtained varied in the range 60-109%. This method was compared with LC-UV method established previously.     

Two new quinolone alkaloids from Dianthus superbus var. superbus

Two new quinolone alkaloids, superbusines A (1) and B (2), were obtained from the whole plants of a Chinese medicinal plant, Dianthus superbus var. superbus. Their structures, featuring a glucosyl moiety linked with a rare 2-(hydroxymethyl)-5-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)phenol fragment, were determined on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analyses, and the absolute configurations were assigned by time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT)-based electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. The two alkaloids were evaluated in a series of bioassays without showing antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, cytotoxic and α-glucosidase inhibitory properties, while they exhibited slight protection against amyloid-β(Aβ)-induced injury on neuron SH-SY5Y cells.     

Design, synthesis and antitumor activity of 3-substituted quinolone derivatives (Ⅰ)

A series of quinolone derivatives containing benzimidazole, benzoxazole or benzothiazole ring were synthesized. The cytotoxicity of 12 new compounds was evaluated in KB, Be17402, A2780 and HT-29 cell lines. Most of synthesized compounds showed moderate inhibitory activity against cancer cells. The inhibitory activities of 6k, against KB and A2780 tumor cells are comparable to that of topotecan, one of topoisomerase I inhibitors.     

On-line preparation of microsamples prior to CE

An experimental setup is presented here for the automated analysis of microsamples, based on the on-line coupling of a capillary SPE module and a CE unit using a two-position six-port valve, an open-closed valve to isolate electrically the sample preparation from the CE unit and a "T" interface. A C18 trapping microcolumn (dimensions 2.5 cm x 100 microm id x 360 microm od) was used for the SPE step. The utility of the proposed experimental setup was demonstrated by applying it to the determination of quinolone antibiotics in serum microsamples, which was efficiently carried out in less than 20 min (4 min for protein denaturation and 15 min for analytes preconcentration and CE-UV separation-determination). A complete optimization study was performed for preconcentration and cleanup of quinolones, the coupling of sample preparation module to the CE unit and electrophoretic separation of quinolones. A preconcentration factor of 10.4 was achieved. The volume injected with the proposed method was 125 nL versus 160 nL introduced by hydrodynamic injection. The volume required for the analysis was 2 microL, which makes the proposed experimental setup very useful for the analysis of microsamples in fields of current interest such as metabolomics or proteomics.     

Synthesis and thermal behavior of chiral oligomers derived from cholesterol

Synthesis and thermal properties of a series of Schiff base oligomers derived from naturally occurring cholesterol are described. In particular, four of them show smectic A and/or chiral nematic phase/s or an unknown mesophase, while the other is non-mesomorphic. Molecular packing in the SmA phase has been determined by the HRXRD experiment.
