- Silver-Catalyzed Diastereoselective Synthesis of Spirocyclic Pyrrolidine-Lactones by 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition
-
The preparation of two enantiomerically enriched amino lactones as chiral starting substrates for asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions is described. They act as precursors of the chiral imino lactones, which form in situ the corresponding azomethine ylides. They react with electrophilic alkenes under silver catalysis to afford spirolactone-pyrrolidines products. The sequential method consisting in one-pot imine formation → cycloaddition is optimized and compared with the multicomponent process. The scope of the reaction is studied as well as the stereochemical outcomes and the mechanistic details using DFT calculations and X-ray diffraction analysis.

- Irreversible inhibitors of the proline racemase unveil innovative mechanism of action as antibacterial agents against Clostridioides difficile
-
Proline racemases (PRAC), catalyzing the l-proline and d-proline interconversion, are essential factors in eukaryotic pathogens such as Trypanosoma cruzi, Trypanosoma vivax, and Clostridioides difficile. If the discovery of irreversible inhibitors of T.?cruzi PRAC (TcPRAC) led to innovative therapy of the Chagas disease, no inhibitors of CdPRAC have been discovered to date. However, C.?difficile, due to an increased incidence in recent years, is considered as a major cause of health threat. In this work, we have taken into account the similarity between TcPRAC and CdPRAC enzymes to design new inhibitors of CdPRAC. Starting from (E) 4-oxopent-2-enoic acid TcPRAC irreversible inhibitors, we synthesized 4-aryl substituted analogs and evaluated their CdPRAC enzymatic inhibition against eleven strains of C.?difficile. This study resulted in promising candidates and allowed for identification of (E)-4-(3-bromothiophen-2-yl)-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid 20 that was chosen for complementary in vivo studies and did not reveal in vivo toxicity.

- Design, synthesis, and bioevaluation of a novel class of (E)-4-oxo-crotonamide derivatives as potent antituberculosis agents
-
A series of novel (E)-4-oxo-2-crotonamide derivatives were designed and synthesized to find potent antituberculosis agents. All the target compounds were evaluated for their in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv(MTB). Results reveal that 4-phenyl moiety at part A and short methyl group at part C were found to be favorable. Most of the derivatives displayed promising activity against MTB with MIC ranging from 0.125 to 4 μg/mL. Especially, compound IIIa16 was found to have the best activity with MIC of 0.125 μg/mL against MTB and with MIC in the range of 0.05–0.48 μg/mL against drug-resistant clinical MTB isolates.
