- Tert -Butyl Hypochlorite Mediated Oxidative Chlorination of S -Alkylisothiourea Salts: Synthesis of Sulfonyl Chlorides
-
Under neutral conditions, a variety of S-alkylisothiourea salts were smoothly converted into the corresponding sulfonyl chlorides through tert-butyl chlorite mediated oxidative chlorination in good to excellent yields after simple purification. In addition to the environmental and procedural advantages of this method, the neutral conditions potentially make it applicable to substrates that bear acid-sensitive functional groups. For example, the Cbz-protected 2-aminoethanesulfonyl chloride could be synthesized in moderate to good yields under the current neutral conditions, and the acid-sensitive Cbz-protecting group was not affected.

- Degradation of MAC13243 and studies of the interaction of resulting thiourea compounds with the lipoprotein targeting chaperone LolA
-
The discovery of novel small molecules that function as antibacterial agents or cellular probes of biology is hindered by our limited understanding of bacterial physiology and our ability to assign mechanism of action. We previously employed a chemical genomic strategy to identify a novel small molecule, MAC13243, as a likely inhibitor of the bacterial lipoprotein targeting chaperone, LolA. Here, we report on the degradation of MAC13243 into the active species, S-(4-chlorobenzyl)isothiourea. Analogs of this compound (e.g., A22) have previously been characterized as inhibitors of the bacterial actin-like protein, MreB. Herein, we demonstrate that the antibacterial activity of MAC13243 and the thiourea compounds are similar; these activities are suppressed or sensitized in response to increases or decreases of LolA copy number, respectively. We provide STD NMR data which confirms a physical interaction between LolA and the thiourea degradation product of MAC13243, with a K d of ~150 μM. Taken together, we conclude that the thiourea series of compounds share a similar cellular mechanism that includes interaction with LolA in addition to the well-characterized target MreB.

- Convenient and environment-friendly synthesis of sulfonyl chlorides from S -alkylisothiourea salts via N-chlorosuccinimide chlorosulfonation
-
A convenient, practical, and environmentally friendly method for the synthesis of sulfonyl chlorides has been developed. Structurally diverse sulfonyl chlorides were synthesized in moderate to excellent yields from S-alkylisothiourea salts, which can be easily prepared from readily accessible alkyl halides or mesylates and inexpensive thiourea, via N-chlorosuccinimide chlorosulfonation. In large-scale syntheses, the byproduct succinimide from 'waste water' can be conveniently converted into the starting reagent N-chlorosuccinimide with sodium hypochlorite (bleach) to make the method sustainable.

- Simple synthesis of sulfonyl chlorides from thiol precursors and derivatives by NaClO2-mediated oxidative chlorosulfonation
-
A simple method to synthesize diverse sulfonyl chlorides through NaClO 2-mediated oxidative chlorosulfonation of S-alkyl isothiourea salts is presented. The approach features safe operation, environmental friendliness, convenient purification procedures, and delivers high yields of up to 96%. The procedure is also applicable to substrates such as thiols, disulfides, thioacetates, and xanthates. It is a versatile and convenient method for the synthesis of various sulfonyl chlorides from different thiol precursors and derivatives. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart, New York.

- Structure-activity studies on antihyperlipidemic N-benzoylsulfamates, N-benzylsulfamates, and benzylsulfonamides
-
A series of aryl substituted N-benzoyl- and N-benzylsulfamic acid sodium salts and benzylsulfonamide sodium salts have been prepared and examined for antihyperlipidemic activity in male CF1 mice at a dose level of 20 mg/kg/d ip for 16 d. These substances were also subjected to toxicological evaluation and chemical stability studies. In general, both series of sulfamates and sulfonamides significantly lowered serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels in mice. The compounds were nonmutagenic, showed no acute toxicity or impaired liver or kidney function in male mice, and were chemically stable both as the monohydrates and in aqueous solution over a pH range of 3.5-7.4. While both series of sulfamates and sulfonamides lowered serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels, the sulfamates were relatively more potent with regard to decreasing cholesterol levels, while the sulfonamides were more effective in lowering serum triglyceride levels in mice.
